You need to grow up Wake. We're not in school. Do you honestly believe I was saying you have some mental deficiency? Or do you, deep down, realize that I was using explosive language to prove a point about how self-centered your posts sounded?

@Lucky that doesn't answer my question, reasoning for that vote is required. If you want to go with the avoiding actually answering but sidetracking onto another question.
What makes me asking someone a question mean I find them not-town?

Except that I don't actually play that game.

Gam became town to me when he was looking at his attack (etl) and analyzing where they were coming from.

VOTE: Wake

If your next post is only some petty fight with ETL or whatever, you can expect this vote to stay for a while.

Your first big post didn't seem to have any conclusions in it, but you said you "weren't done." Here's what I want. Conclusions. I don't want what you're giving recently, which is simply a summary of the game with your little thoughts. I want reads or something now, and reasons why. If we ask you or want to know why,
then
you can go through the explanation.

I reread Smudger's post by the way, and besides him misunderstanding why I'm hugging ETL all the time, a lot of his analyses are sound. Classic town Smudger.

This wake and ETL thing is distracting.

Wake was in a game I modded once. He acted pretty similar to this. Unfortunately he got site banned before the game ended. His play style is... Aggravating but I'm not sure it's proof of scum. He may end up getting lynched because he's too hard to play with.

ETL I've seen get all huffy and mad and such. I was the cause of it at the time, but she was town. It's not enough for a meta read but can anyone confirm ETL town = hissy fit when accused?

ETL, does it bother you that DBK keeps following you?

He followed your vote on Lucky.
He followed your vote on Gamsimbre.
He followed your vote on me.

Does anyone else notice this?

I feel like someone told me ETL can overreact as scum.

The problem with Wake's signature playstyle is that it's easy to fake as scum, and it's annoying how much he's saying (that I have to read). I'm considering making sure I don't join any more games with him because his playstyle kinda stomps on my fun factor, but enough about that. So far his conclusions or analyses have not been shown, and I highly doubt we're actually going to get anything before deadline considering the pace at which he's giving actual information.

The way you phrased the original question was more important to me than the question it asked.

I was voting Gamsimbre because I wanted to put my vote somewhere, I'm leaning scum on him for his noob like contradictions of himself.

My inquiry of you is not why you are reading him town, but why did you phrase it that way? Obviously I'm accusing you of scum slipping if you hadn't caught on.

OK, I've got a gut feeling. I'm going to entertain the idea.

What if ETL is Town, and DBK is Scum? Say DBK knows ETL as Town is a threat, so he keeps sheeping/buddying/following her. The reason he would do that as Scum is that, should he be lynched while ETL is alive, he would have made it seem that ETL was his partner, when she wasn't.

Please share your thoughts on this.

Looks like it could be read one of two ways, considering the top question was directed at her, and the bottom at everyone.

I can sorta understand ETL-town me-scum, but who actually thinks we're both scum? I wanna know because I don't feel like that makes sense.

I'm sure you can figure out how confident I am.

It's one post which was clearly town motivated is enough for me.

How do as you called it "noob" contradictions, make him scum though?

I think I was town with you once, Smudger.

You seem to be genuine with your catch-up and doesn't look like you're trying to deviate from the truth or anything. Just a general townie feel.

I'm starting to understand more and more why my "love of all things ETL" is scummy, and I probably should've done something like arranged a truce before doing it.

I apologise my inactivity, I've been rereading / trying to figure out some things.

UNVOTE:
I don't bother to wait. Kalimar said he'll come back tomorrow (What day is that for me, I dunno). I'm
not
forgetting that.

I've changed my opinions about my town reads I mentioned back there. I'm pretty sure there is at least one scum among DBK, Wake, ETL and BB. Which I believe not to be BB.
DBK, I can't really figure out your reads, except for ETL town read and null Wake.

VOTE: DoesBoKnow

It does feel like you're creating argumentation between you and Wake in pages 8-10. It simply was 1vs1 and when there was no real result presented, I don't find it being Town vs Town. Just few pages of fluffy stuff about Wake's playstyle. Also, I don't get why you're so eager to sheep ETL, even if you have a town read on her.

On another note, I hope KBW is getting replaced. I will also answer some questions that were asked during my absence in a moment.
