@SV
When rereading this thread, I realized I had heard this saying before and having a look back, I realized you used it when you self hammered in Open 226 (Active game). I'm interested in what context you are using this term in for this game.I have failed.In looking back at a couple of games, I had SB confused with a different player (who shall remain nameless).
I have now successfully painted myself into a very bad corner, and I have no idea what to do about it.
More later.
I'm quite a fan of sarcasm. Really! But now all you seem to me is just over emphasizing you agreeing to me calling you an arrogant bastard. I'm curious as to whether you are just following this persona as an excuse to avoid answering uncomfortable questions.Shattered Viewpoint wrote:I'll do my best.

I'd refer you to my wiki page, but apparently you cannot be bothered to do any original research; rather, you seem content to allow other players to do all your homework for you. That being said, I've been scum in this game, this one, and this one. (The careful reader will be able to find my main account's identity in one of those games. I've been scum many more times there than here.)curiouskarmadog wrote:Have you ever been scum?See the above quote about doing your homework.

@Zanjet
You don't attack the reasoning of the vote behind you, and your defense is "This is a bullshit wagon". What's wrong with having a wagon on you? It seems to frustrate you quite a bit. This speaks out to me as quite scummy: Scum tend to get worried when they feel they are negative attention is being directed towards them and over exaggerate even a few votes on them.The irony is also killing me... SV's wagon falling apart because it is "too fast," and three votes pile on me in a couple hours. This is a bullshit wagon, by the way. I voted once outside of random, for someone that I, and others, feel is likely scum, and all the sudden "TOMGZ BANDWAGONING SCUMMZ!!!!1!!!!one!!1!1!12!1eleven!111
@SC
A serious fake claim from scum as a town power role this early in the game is as likely as my pet gold fish drowning in his fish tank. In F11 with 9 players, as the game progresses a few days due to the limited player base, someone fake claiming as VT is less likely to get away as compared to this game where it will be nigh impossible to deduce if a VT claim is fake for at least several months.No, because it is not quite true that I know at all. That would require everybody aligned with the town to be VTs. I think you're also making the false assumption that F11, and therefore this game, has no fakeclaiming potential for scum.
While I understand what you mean regarding beef and his logic is indeed quite poor, why exactly is this deserving of a finger in his direction?This is fallacious. That everybody disagrees with you does not mean that you are wrong. If it means anything more than that, it means you have to build your case to get people to rally for your cause.
FoS: Beefster
So let me get this right: You, who hasnt built a case about why beef is suspicious, is suspicious of beef for not building a case about why he thinks SV is scummy because SV didnt build a case for his logic as to scum tells.
Ouch! Irony."Gut read" and "weird unvote thingy", eh? Look like excuses to me.
Unvote: silverbullet999
Vote: Zajnet
@KageLord
So firstly you are saying scum can do things townies can do to give off a townie impression. Then you say that scumhunting is a good indication of someone being town. This just seems to me as a poor effort to try and get some content in but nothing outrageous as to drag unwanted attention to yourself. I look forward to reading some more of your scum hunting posts to see if I can get a better read on you but then you (and tumernasnce) are probably going to get modkilled anyway for inactivity.1. The person I have the most mixed feelings about is SV. At first, I thought the whole thing about him unvoting when he didn't vote in the first place was stupid. But, I was a bit rattled when he claimed he did it on purpose as a trap. I guess I could see someone trying it, but it seems like a pretty stupid trap to me.It could easily be taken the wrong way and used by scum (as it very well may have been in this game). I also don't agree with his scum skimming "tell" thing in general. I think that scum read the thread just as carefully as experienced town players do. It would be so easy for them to slip up and misrep or something like that if they didn't pay attention.However, there still seems to be scumhunting effort from him, even if I don't agree with all of his methods.I would say I'm leaning town on him.
@ConfidAnon
That is pretty pathetic. I don't even know what you are agreeing with. Me being suss or scum skimming? You've done nothing in this game but bandwagon.Damn it Sotty . . . after reading the thread, I wanted to make a post such as yours.
But you already made it.
I agree with Sotty7.
@Silver
Scum hunting is something that will eventually happen when I have enough time (maybe like now?). Pretty convenient how you come back and jump on the easiest bandwagon with one of the most pathetic excuses. Suppose you will draw much less attention jumping on my wagon now than later yer?Isoing now...
Wow... not much of a contributor atm. To push him to actually scumhunt and what not...
VOTE: Enigma
@Troll
Hang on... Is this a lynch list or is it just the afk list? Your not even calling it a policy lynch. (PS: You are missing a few names which need to be on that list if that is the case. Why?)I'd be willing to lynch any of the following if it came down to it right now without feeling the least bit bad: Chronopie, Enigma, silverbullet999, tumescence, Zajnet. That list could be longer without much trouble at all but it's already more players than there are scum.
So all those who contribute are townies and those who are legitimately busy are scum? Awesome logic there mate.
@All
I even ISOd myself.
Inactivity: Guilty
Not scum hunting? Inactivity = Busy = No time to read thread and post huge walls of text = not voting.
Theory talk? No time = Much easier to post a few lines of quick
I'm having quite a chuckle at all those who have just jumped on this new wagon (me!) and are so confident I am one of the scummiest players given I haven't posted much this game due to RL constraints. Enjoy! Knock yourselves out!
-----
Note to self: If I am mafia, act stupid and clueless and just pipe in with occasional I agree posts to pro townies. eg:confidanon, silverbullet and gammagooey. It will be sure to throw all those experienced scum hunters off their tracks because they don't even notice you are existent. Or maybe all these scum hunters are just purposely overlooking this critical issue, how convenient.
