this is interesting already. bub's callout on me didn't look like a joke to me, and so i don't think it is right to assume he is doing a "silly thing". i'll make note of this later on if either of you turn up scumIn post 24, NotThePope wrote:So you call him out for calling out an FoS in RVS?

absta you know that first FoS was a joke right? i still haven't seen confirmation that you read my post correctly.
also, i don't like jumping to someone before RVS really ends, especially early, since wagons jump out pretty fast (notthepope is at L-2 right now, so a vote by me would have put him at L-1 before i got back to the computer!) and i want to see reactions to my initial points that were made. looking at how people have jumped on notthepope so fast and how empty some of the posts have been as far as reasoning goes, i feel as though there are definitely scum motions behind this wagon and i'm not sure if i'm willing to back itjustyet, although i have not ruled out an impromptu d1 bus for sure.ShowConcussed by a poorly constructed title - how ironic. - Erg0

so a serious vote on someone who's allegiance you are unsure of is your idea of getting the game moving, but:In post 60, Bub Bidderskins wrote:As for the FoS, I was being half-serious. Every game I'm in I try to get out of RVS as soon as possible by nitpicking at some tiny thing and making a seemingly serious vote.
No, I do not find that FoS to be an alignment tell in any way. I just wanted to get the game moving.
wanna explain this a little more? i'm liking bub more than notthepope at the moment for a wagon. also, Kid A could we get some more input on your voting choices? you aren't adding much in your posts.In post 51, Bub Bidderskins wrote:And how exactly does this vote get the day moving along? Yes, bandwagons can move the day along, but not just because they exist. You simply jumped onto the bandwagon and did nothing to actually get the game moving. Furthermore, the whole bandwagon on notthepope is stupid because he's most likely town.

wow. so a lot of people have picked up basically on what i thought about DCL's post; i don't know how you can get a read strong enough to deduce anything from levio's comment let alone to vote him there. i also feel as though a few people are jumping on the recent Smudger thing pretty hard *coughbubcough*; almost looks like scum trying to jump off a wagon on one of their buddies at just the right time, if you know what i mean. i also don't like yessiree's 122, as he basically piggybacks smudger's points completely.
don't know what to make of absta's abrupt switch there. still hasn't responded to my question and just seems to pop in and immediately direct votes elsewhere. absta, did you realize my initial FoS was a joke? why the immediate jump off of me after you posted so urgently to get more votes on me around page 3?

also, i'm more ok with Kid A's vote on levio than DCL's, if people are wondering why i'm not picking on both of them. seems much more honest than DCL's odd pseudo-mentoring post where he all of a sudden votes levio out of the blue.

No I didn't recognise the un-seriousness of your FoS.absta, did you realize my initial FoS was a joke? why the immediate jump off of me after you posted so urgently to get more votes on me around page 3?
I wanted more votes on you for pressure iirc.
i think i already addressed this, but it was a bit early for a vote in my opinion. i didn't feel ready to put one down; i wanted to make sure he answered me though. i do FoS a lot as both scum and town. unfortunately, i'm making a return after a multi-year sabbatical so it would be harder to meta me and my approach has surely changed a bit in my absence, so you'll have to sort of take me for granted; i DID fos in older games though, so if you can find them they should confirm this. i feel as though i've fos'd quite a bit in this game, though i've done it a lot in the other game i am playing (ongoing, can't link you i don't think i don't remember the exact site rules on this) so i may be getting them confused. i don't see how fosing is a scumtell, although it is clear we have different opinions on the tactic. i see it as a good gauge for how i felt about someone at a point in time and it can be quicker for me to look back and recall my general feeling towards someone without having to reread all of their posts to remember how i thought about them. they also tend to be in posts replying directly to things (usually isolated, but they can be little things adding up) so i can pinpoint the information that creates said feelings easier as well.In post 151, absta101 wrote:Why wouldn't you vote NTP here? FoSs' are useless imo. A vote would've created real pressure and possibly some reactions that we could've worked with.

All I said was "more votes on Alabaska". How is that urgent?why the immediate jump off of me after you posted so urgently to get more votes on me around page 3?noturgent? it was like the first post on page 3, dude. we had barely left RVS.
obviously most of your case seems to stem from differing opinions on how to use an FoS in a game, so i see it as pretty flimsy and subjective. if i see one person as the most scummy, and see other people being scummy but not as scummy as the person i am voting is continually acting, what should i do? votehop every other post??? again, i use the fos as a marker of sorts to let myself know that i felt so-and-so was scummy at this time. i think bub is scummier than DCL and yessiree, but that is not a reason to not point out when the other two do stuff that sets off my scumdar. i'm curious, do you just votehop constantly the minute someone else does something scummy? you say me and DCL are both good votes; by your logic you should vote both of us since you think we are scummy (obviously impossible, but this demonstrates how absurd i find your argument).In post 152, absta101 wrote:
Omg! Fuck this, you're back in my scum pile.summary: FoS: DCL, yessiree
Your vote is on Bub who you seem to not really talk about/get people to vote him. You say that DCL's post is very suspicions/scummy (major red flag) and then you just end it with a FoS on her. You're playing it too safe to be town.
i don't think you are scummy, just misguided. its obvious we have different points of view on a fundamental part of the game, so we may inevitably have to agree to disagree, but you are basically putting together a poor case based on my playstyle. i suggest you strongly consider the points i have made here, since i think i have elucidated why your argument is flawed and hopefully you can move on.ShowConcussed by a poorly constructed title - how ironic. - Erg0

yeah it was the tone thing and the phrasing. i mean the theory isn't super strong and i agree is also indicative of inexperienced town but DCL seemed to be picking up on that and giving him advice to trust his gut, and then all of sudden says "lol jk i think ur scum tho" and votes him. that rubbed me the wrong way on himIn post 175, TMTOLBTWNTOF wrote:

that's too blanket a statement for my liking. you should discuss anything that you think could contribute to scumhunting. however, i agree Generic was overreacting to NTP's voteIn post 191, yessiree wrote:Generic, no body does team speculations on day 1. save that shit for later
you should vote people you think are scummy, not people who are on vacation and can't defend themselves. if you even have any opinions on anyone. why don't you post your views on each player? why do you care about my views on NTP? it should be obvious i have a slight scumread on him (at least at this point) but i like bub better. why tunnel on me like this unless you are scum looking for something to latch onto so you can say you are contributing when in actuality you are coasting?
great observation. i'm eager to see how the rest of these pages unfold and where this leadsIn post 201, absta101 wrote:Generic hasn't voted at all iirc. Such bs.
he didn't demand it, it just seemed quite irregular for you not to choose the one you felt strongest about. the game has gone far enough that not voting seems a bit queer seeing as you have scumreads on peopleIn post 202, Generic wrote:And I won't be voting until I see a need to.

I wasn't going to vote until I had done the review of you. When I did, I voted. I have just responded to being asked why I voted with the case.
Your response is to mock me for not voting... Riiiight.
well put. oddly enough, i think generic is soundly winning this argument so far after being on the hot seat for a bitIn post 228, Generic wrote:Thanks for continuing to justify my vote, you have no defence so you build straw men instead. Keep on digging that hole.
this sums up everything on this argument i could want to say. i also agree that the naked vote on yessiree for pressure was weird for NTP. just voting someone doesn't necessarily put pressure on them; creating a case does, which ntp doesn't do. these empty pressure votes are a great way for scum to hide their vote somewhere while distancing from partners or coasting in games.In post 232, Om of the Nom wrote:

You're both acting like children, actually.
However, I'm inclined to believe Generic at this point, because when NTP was presented with an argument as to why Generic didn't vote immediately, NTP focused on the insult instead of the explanation, while claiming that his point was never refuted. He's ignoring a lot of information to try and portray Generic in a bad light.
also, here yessiree conveniently forgets to quotegeneric's actual case against NTP. what a misrep!!!! red flag alert.
what?? you are blowing this way out of proportion. he thinks one person is scummy and doesn't entertain your hypothetical that he and the guy he is arguing with are both town so you vote him? you are trying to stir stuff up out of nothing; definitely looks like a scum tactic to me.In post 246, DCLXVI wrote:Actually, patience is not a virtue I've often been accused of having.

This still wouldn't be bad until later.
I actually can't say anything negative about this, He points out something that's genuinely scummy on his scumread.just gotta look at how the two heads play and respond to each other and figure out if they have town or mafia motivation
Personally I don't think it made sense for them to vote wrestle when they weren't in danger of lynching someone and I also don't like how one of them keeps townreading everyone who pushes on them
This is where things REALLY get interesting.i disagree with the people above me levio just told us they were voting the largest wagon over their scumread because ntp hasnt omgused absta
imo this is an attempt to look town because levio expects ntp to flip town and they dont want to look like they pushed a mislynch
VOTE: levio
Kid A's vote is on NTP because he thinks he's scum, right? Now, there's "levio expects ntp to flip town"
This sounds like he thinks he's onto something big.yeah but if we assume levio is scum being on the wagon is still beneficial to mafia and i really cant see any town motivation for voting the person who isnt your scumread
if ntp flipped mafia i would still be worried about levio voting mafia even though they think absta is the mafia, it would give me the impression that levio has more information than us
Then he just completely lets it drop.
Now he's on some other wagon agaisnt a person that he tried to buddy earlier.radiantcowbells you keep bwing people with little to no reasoning & not making your own cases, IMO you are trying to be unassuming but the lack of good content makes you stick out as scum to me
VOTE: radiantcowbells
Oh hey, the guy I voted because I think heis scum just voted me back.someone is riled :c
Appropriate reactions?
a) Decide he's not scum for reasons and switch my vote.
b) Push everyone else to realize how scummy his OMGUS vote is.
c) Say "someone is riled :c"
He keeps his vote on me yet is obviously completely uninterested in pushing my lynch.
Again, he's not encouraging anyone to vote his scumread. He's just defending himself by comparing himself to me; something that suggests that I'm town by virtue of comparison, even though his stated position is that I'm scum and thus if we have similar ISO's, that makes us BOTH scum.spot the difference
Active lurking.post your fucking read on him or you are being anti town
Interesting, and followed up with a vote. This actually looks pretty good, he finds a reason to suggest that someone is scum, then votes for them. Until...doesnt this contradict the post i quoted
WHAT THE FUCK.lynching ntp will give us the most information imo
TL;DR This guy gives about as many fucks about scumhunting as Bowie does about sailors fighting in the dance hall.

Option two makes the most sense, yet om opted for option 1, which does not make sense if his reads truly are what he says they are.

What I said was just a roundabout way of saying option 2, so why is option 1 only something scum would say?
Here is what I think.
You said that two players cannot both be scum. Then, if you get the chance to mislynch one of them, you can then just logically push for a mislynch of the other. However, you got called out on that statement and you didn't have a good way to defend it so you just bs'd into saying NTP must be scum for sure so that is how my statement works. While that may be technically true, it doesn't fit the normal use of that phrase (one of them must be scum, or both can't be town) and has an obvious scum use.
I'm content with lynching om.

just want to point the gregarious absolutes that Bub is posting in all of a sudden. don't see how this confirms Cowbells as town or kid a as scum. not a scum slip at all really, although i agree that the case is good against kid a. i think the vote hop is something scum would do (and thus agree with cowbells) but trying to portray it as a scumslip looks to me like a bus from Bub.In post 311, Bub Bidderskins wrote: <snip>

Smudger is still scummy btw, but that catch by cowbells is massive. Kid A reveals that he knows that NTP is town by saying levio expects him to flip, but then he still wants to get onto the hot NTP wagon. That is such a massive scumslip. Cowbells is conf. town. Kid A is conf. scum.
Lynch him now. I will not be happy with any other lynch today.

Your defense of Kid A has been noted.In post 293, Generic wrote:Trying to figure out this sudden kid A wagon that's formed. So far kid A has opened in RVS with a vote on NTP, then a naked vote to bub, followed by a return to NTP with what looks to be a serious vote based on indecision between the two users making up the hydra. He then criticises NTP for not explaining themselves, explains to me how to read a hydra mindset, then at post 106 changes vote to Levio based on the theory now that NTP will flip town and Levio knows this. Continues the case on Levio with decent logic, then switches to cowbell based on not much input of her own, leans on alabaska for an NTP read, goes back to cowbells to point out their OMGUS and show the difference in how each voted for people (the assumption here is that kid gives an explanation and cowbell doesn't).
From here there is an abusive outburst to alabaska to give his NTP read, moves his vote to NTP before then switching to NTP with the short reason of it giving most information.
He then in single sentence responses pushes NTP, and at one point explains he unvoted alabaska because he went v/la (dies that count as a reason?) before seemingly dodging responses to people who are pushing on him.
Summarised, there are a few concerns about his play, such as the leaving cases he built in favour of an NTP push which has very little case from him or indeed an explanation, and also the leaving of the alabaska vote I don't fully understand the reasoning given.
But beyond that he has been applying pressure and the vote changing up until NTP has always had a strong logic attached to why.
Is the wagon building solely to force him to stop dodging questions or have I missed something more damning on him? Currently im not seeing anything worthy of the speed those votes came in at.when it is done so objectively as generic did it. i'm getting the feeling bub and dcl might be working together to bus Kid A here.especially

a suggestion that levio could be mafia expecting ntp to flip town is miles away from "Kid A reveals that he knows that NTP is town by saying levio expects him to flip"
using words like scumslip and conf inappropriately might make you think your case looks really good but it entirely hinges on something you made up :c
i'm sticking with my DCL vote here. we need more people on this. the Om business was really funky. i really like Aldusskel's analysis too; good to have a quality player replacing in. i don't know why people don't think i was pressuring bub, he's been lurking and not really responding to me and in addition no one else is voting him so the pressure has been hard to apply by myself. i like DCL as scum better now, and while i agree with Aldusskel that Kid A's play could be because he is a bad player, and that the wagon on him contains scum, i think it looks more like a bus personally. Also, ald I got that award in 2012 when i briefly came back to the site to play like two games before school prevented me from really rejoining. it was for arrested development mafia, in which i did not play as large a role as the award might indicate due to being v/la for part of endgame.ShowConcussed by a poorly constructed title - how ironic. - Erg0

what more do you want? i'll reiterate: i have a slight scum read on him, especially after his recent interaction with generic, but the hydra makes things difficult to analyze. you think we are scumbuddies or something yes? is this still because i voted bub instead of him early on when i had scumreads on both of them? would you have hounded me about bub instead of ntp in lieu of actual contribution had i voted the other? i don't know why you are still going on about this. i highly doubt he will be lynched to day anyway; looks like people want you and i've moved on to supporting DCLXVI for the block (look at his interaction with Om of the Nom and tell me that isn't scum trying to manufacture a case away from the action so as to avoid being on a wagon or avoid joining a wagon on a scumbuddy) so i don't see its relevance. i'd rather not waste time doing an iso on someone who is my fourth (maybe fifth because of yessiree's contentless tripe that makes it look like he's trying his damnedest to fly under the radar and the fact that one of the heads is OMGUSsy and hard to read) scumread right now.In post 343, Kid A wrote:i still would really like an explained read on ntp pleaseShowConcussed by a poorly constructed title - how ironic. - Erg0

i don't think that he thought he was going to successfully lynch him, but here's why he would want his vote not on any of the main wagons (this was when the Kid A wagon was heating up):In post 349, Alduskkel wrote:@Generic: I don't know you from anywhere, I just think you and Om are town and have your heads screwed on reasonably straight.
@Alabaska: DCL's case on Om was really bad. But why is it scummy? Om doesn't strike me as a good target for scum DCL.
if the person being wagoned is his scumbuddy, he wants his vote somewhere else so that he can keep it off the wagon so it has the chance to die down. if a bus seems inevitable, he can always jump on the wagon at some point (probably right as it gains traction)
if the person being wagoned is town, he can stay off of the wagon so as to look more town by saying "hey i never wanted to vote him in the first place"
i don't see a reason to start a case that makes no sense on someone that isn't acting scummy as opposed to examining the growing wagons happening around you, especially when you are also involved in questioning the person who is being wagoned!:

And, @Kid A, you still haven't answered my question. I'm waiting.
throughout all of these posts, as people are paying attention to Kid A, his vote stays on Om of the Nom for absolutely BS reasons, even though he obviously has issue with Kid A as well. His next post after 218, he switches to Kid A (finally) which makes me feel like this is a bus. Now, some might say I'm being hypocritical because I am also involved in questioning Kid A yet i am voting DCL; however, my case on DCL is much stronger than DCL's on Om, which is actually really just stupid, so i don't see the situations as comparable.In post 287, DCLXVI wrote:@Kid A
stop ignoring me and answer this.
OMGUS is context-based for whether or not it is scummy, townie, or null. also, it is, in general, poor play no matter when you do it. i suggest that you stop OMGUSsing. also, voting someone for having a bad case on you is not OMGUSsing, but insulting them and not defending yourself is, and is poor play (and therefore anti-town). i would suggest dropping this habit, since you are self-aware of it.

Kid A is a stupid lynch because the case on him is way too superficial. It doesn't show why he (as scum) is more likely to coy about his NTP vote. RC's case is better than all the people just sheeping the Kid A wagon but it's still stretched.
I'm going with an NTP vote because they seriously aren't scumhunting, unless you call fruitless bantering with Generic and Kid A scumhunting.

i did a quick meta of you and found that you usually play like this. i would suggest adding content to your posts (you were sort of doing it at the beginning of this game) to avoid getting lynched at the beginning of games. you are being thoroughly anti-town right now. how about listing some reasons that the kid a wagon is better than other wagons and why you are so sure that he is scum? note: if it because of multiple contentless posts and poor answering of questions, you are basically describing yourself, so think about that.In post 375, yessiree wrote:The Kid A wagon is full of glory and justice and you should feel bad for not being on it

OK, im on the NTP wagon but im very uncomfortable with this post.

pedit: he didn't, bub is scum
Add to that your trying to force a claim when I don't think anyone gave intent for the hammer you seem to be trying to rush the process the site generally works to.before deadline claim? what would you have us do instead? i don't think it is much of a stretch that i am speaking for multiple people here. that is one L-1 means: we are comfortable lynching you, so give us a reason not to. i'm not sure what your interpretation of it is.two daysShowConcussed by a poorly constructed title - how ironic. - Erg0

he is not at L-1 with someone ready to hammer. in fact, it might be more productive to have them both claim. when exactly is "absolutely necessary"? right before deadline, when it might be too late to make a decision should he claim a pr, and someone might not be around to counter claim, should that be the case? and you really think NTP regardless of alignment would try and appease the town? i don't see his withholding as a scumtell, it fits within his anti-town playstyle for the most part. why wouldn't scum hold out as long as possible with a wagon on kid a? they could get around having to construct a fakeclaim while the town changes their mind.In post 420, DCLXVI wrote:

There is nothing wrong with NTP witholding a claim until absolutely necessary. In fact, I find it rather towny, given how close he is to being lynched I would think scum NTP would rather appease town then attempt to piss them off.
since we have people worried about what the town wants, lets take a vote: i say they both claim and we make a decision from there. everyone else should weigh in, but keep in mind, it is beneficial for scum to try and stretch this out until we get close to deadline to force us to make a more uninformed decision. time is running out and we need all the information we can get so we can choose who to lynch. i'm not sure what else the town would want here, a nolynch? a hammer without a claim? the game running to deadline? really, all you people against the people at L-1 and L-2 claiming, tell me your brilliant alternative.ShowConcussed by a poorly constructed title - how ironic. - Erg0

...so the current situation. also, i agree you want to out as few power roles as possible, i'm not asking for a massclaim or anything. but if we are going to have a stalemate over who should be claim, why not have both claim? do people really think that if we lynch one, the other will not be a lynch target the next day? if we are so split over who to lynch, and you are saying NTP shouldn't claim because of a lesser (but still significant) wagon on kid a, what makes the kid a wagon a better target for a claim? because you are voting him? we are going to have people arguing over which person should claim and which wagon should go to lynch, so why not have them both claim so we don't get locked in a stalemate over who to have claim? if we do make a decision and that person claims a pr, then we either lynched the pr (not preferred) or then have the other person claim, and we have two claims anyway. if one of these guys is a pr, then we are gonna get stuck with two claims regardless.In post 426, DCLXVI wrote:Claims should only happen when someone is at L-1 and someone else has definitively declared an intent to hammer.
anyway, you've sided with no claims i believe, so let's wait and hear what others have to say. let me add that your rushed lynch was a mislynch...that should say enough right there. these two wagons have been building for some time, especially NTP who has been a suspect most of the day. i'd be perfectly fine if we could agree to have one of these two people claim only, but i just don't see that happening because i assume the preferences will fall the same way as the votes have already.ShowConcussed by a poorly constructed title - how ironic. - Erg0

agreed. there is not much use for NTP in late game scenarios, and bomb is a perfect scum fakeclaim. policy lynch time.In post 448, Alduskkel wrote:I definitely don't want NTP alive at lylo. And I definitely don't see what's unlikely about it as a fakeclaim.
It's not like "Bomb" is some super duper pro-town role. We aren't losing much even if he is Town.
if you are a bomb, you played it poorly NTP, because your playstyle is one that will attract a vig shot pretty easily, being the worstcase scenario for the town. therefore, i'm not buying the claim, but regardless we need to lynch anyway.Mafiascum Wiki wrote:In the worst case, Bomb claims will be policy lynched much like Bulletproof claims, as claiming Bomb is a convenient way to explain why a player is not being killed at Night.ShowConcussed by a poorly constructed title - how ironic. - Erg0

In post 24, NotThePope wrote:So you call him out for calling out an FoS in RVS? You said it yourself, people do silly things during RVS. Most of Bub's posting HAS looked like jokes. Not buddying.
On that note, I want to get a wagon going
VOTE: RadiantCowbells
Lets see where this one takes us
these are the only times NTP mentions Bub at all on day one: a defense of his clearly-not-a-joke vote on me over the confusion of whether or not my FoS was real. also, note the distancing of Cowbells thrown in for good measure. he avoids talking about bub for the rest of the day, most likely to prevent links between him and his partner being seen, since bub defends him wholeheartedly you'd think he'd at least throw out a post his way at some pointIn post 44, NotThePope wrote:

"Silly" again, makes it sound joking. Attacking him over a "silly FoS" doesn't sound like a joke to anyone else, especially during RVS? I'm standing by that point, looks to me like a joke.In post 20, Bub Bidderskins wrote:I'm attacking them for making a silly FOS, not because it was on you.

How can you say in your right mind those are serious posts whatsoever, especially given the time period they were posted
Generic you did the vote method wrong js
Also if you've seen me play you know I'm mucho de paranoia
Weak townread on absta thus far, flip side for radiant.
Cowbells, NTP DID want people to vote Kid A. i don't think both of Kid A and NTP are scum, and since NTP was, i'm leaning more toward poor town play by Kid A. he especially seemed townier to my gut when he was on the chopping block.

is he? why wouldn't people make the same argument you are making? i would think that what he did is a legitimate strategy for scum, and it doesn't change my opinion. your argument accounts to mostly WIFOM.In post 565, yessiree wrote:I don't think scum Bub would defend NTPthatwholeheartedly, even after the intent to hammer,andafter the hammer he still questioned the hammer vote by Smudger. There was a very good chance NTP was going to be lynched, which he was. Doing what Bub did was literally throwing himself out on the spotlight for a lynch on day 2 if NTP flipped scum.

i'm saying that i would expect that play from both town and scum, so it comes up to me as null. i don't see how you can say it goes either way. generic says it well:In post 569, yessiree wrote:It's interesting you say that because I didn't intend to bring WIFOM up. What Bub did looked like a town defending his townread, more so than, a scum trying to salvage his partner. Are you saying town players don't make the same mistakes Bub makes?
p-edit: we'll have to see what Bub have to say
In post 574, Generic wrote:
But that's my point yessiree.In post 570, yessiree wrote:pp: @ generic: Bub did attack Smudger's hammer vote, in #497, and #499, would a scum player, knowing that his partner just got lynched, still uphold that defiance of an attitude?
Say it was me defending NTP so aggressively. Suddenly he is hammered and I stop dead all my defensive comments. NTP flips scum, what do you make of my reaction?
Good scum should know not to drop something just because they know the outcome, that's waaaay too obvious.
great way of phrasing my thoughts exactly.
again, i agree with this. i feel like generic is definitely town, seeing as he was also NTP's biggest target yesterday and it was over a dislike of hydrae as opposed to anything substantial.In post 574, Generic wrote:For me bub you are still a suspect due to suddenly just naming town players in your opinion.

well, although i'm not the person being asked directly, since i say you fit the definition, i'll give my opinion on the term and Alduskkel can give his, and you can decide whether you fit the definition or not.In post 588, TMTOLBTWNTOF wrote:
What's the textbook definition of "wildcard"In post 579, Alduskkel wrote:I would like to point out how much of a wildcard TMT is. Only person not voting Kid A or NTP at the end of the day, not to mention he's been lurking pretty hard.
in my mind, a wildcard is someone whose actions can be seen as either town or scum even on an objective level. note that this is different than a nullread, because that is asubjectivejudgment made by someone. people that fall into this category are those who do any combination of the following things: lurk heavily throughout major points in a game, have a decidedly anti-town playstyle, have a decidedly naive playstyle, have an erratic playstyle, consistently flip-flop on views early and often throughout days in a way that seems genuine. i would say that you are a wildcard for the first reason, NTP was (until the end of the day when he caved obviously enough under pressure) a wildcard for the second reason, Kid A is a wildcard as well for the second reason, and Mutleyddmc is a wildcard for the fourth reason. i think Kid A is most likely town for interactionary reasons, however.ShowConcussed by a poorly constructed title - how ironic. - Erg0
