I was semi-joking when I said that, albeit the fact I dont believe both are town due to the claims.

Does your ass hurt from sitting on that fence and avoiding things?

As I explained to Code above – my gut reaction to the terrible “case” (if you want to call it that) Ranger threw at me was “scum”. I disagree with your premise that this stance isn’t Scum looking to diffuse the wagon on them. A Town player in Ranger’s shoes should have some suspicion of the players whose case on Ranger’s slot is “Meta from prior player and lurking”. There was enough noise made in that direction that several other players stepped in to say “No, not lynching that”. But Ranger blithely just chalks that whole crew up to “Unimpeachable Town” which to me makes no sense from a Town standpoint. Especially on the basis she has provided as support.

See this comment confuses me. Do you think it was scummy for a player to claim Cop at L-1? Independent of what I think of Dragon’s play that lead to the wagon I don’t see anything inherently more scummy about claiming at L-1 as opposed to Jean claiming Watcher effectively “just because”. Of the two Jean’s claim looks objectively worse when viewed form a distance.

Ok I thought I had been talking to you this entire time.
I think I’ve explained this in my response to Ranger but I’ll reiterate – both players I’ve read as scummy. Dragon for his early player which earned my vote and Ranger for the replace in reads which to me don’t logically come from a Town standpoint. As I said earlier – I’m not lynching an UnCCed Cop Day 1 no matter how bad their player is. Dragon’s claim will be tested via Night and re-assessed. On the other hand I don’t believe a Watcher is nearly at the level of Cop as far as leash Day 1 goes.
Is Ranger my preferred lynch? No, not at this stage. But it is a lynch I would consider dependent on how my read on the slot develops.
In post 685, Ircher wrote:You dont lynch someone just cuz they have a string scum game. Ranger has an equally strong town game, so your point is?
Jeanne was scummy for lurking, generally, I'd like to PL any lurking slots. But, the slot claimed watcher -- not lynching a potentially useful role that is also a very powerful player D1.

Ok then help me out here - have you read the back and forth Ranger and I have had? If so please let me know what you see in our interaction that screams Town to you. Or what point I am making you think don't hold up. Or if you haven't please do so.
In post 663, Polar Vortex wrote:Didn't follow it closely since I'm not interested in lynching either of you today. But a lot of what you dislike about her seems like personality. I'm also annoyed by the constant references to the wiki, but I see it as townish. Like that seems to me like a town mindset, going back to some established rules to put some order into chaos. I don't agree with her but I can see where she's coming from.
I also felt you misunderstood the point about you sounding like somebody else. She tried to describe your playstyle in a manner that made sense to her, not attempt to use meta against you(like she accused you of having a certain distanced playstyle that was similar to somebody else, not because you sounded like somebody else and he was scum).That whole arguement was semantics and really minor(and annoying to read)
I think you scumread her for the same reason that you scumread Blackstar: because you don't like their playstyle. Whether this is intentional(as in attacking stuff that you objectively think it's bad so you can look town) or it's your playstyle I can't tell at the moment.I agree her townreading the people voting her was strange but I don't find that suspicious(and I think Snow has talked about this). But if you examine the motivation it looks firmly town from my standpoint.

Of course I'm not making a read. That's because the read already exists. I'm not beginning to have a read; the read was formed from the moment I read your posts.And furthermore this whole back and forth with your doesn’t read at all as a player doing anything that actually amounts to making a read.

Admittedly, I was rather lazy in that regard. I never built my case on you. This? This is mostly building off of one point: that you, as town, would absolutely never be advocating for the lynch of a Watcher, a role of absolutely-comparable strength to a cop, especially after making the argument to not lynch a cop. It is an argument showing through definitive evidence that you have shown an inconsistency in your play, which all your walls are trying to cover up.Not a single lick of this discussion revolves around why I'm scum.
Going after a strong town role is null by itself; people are idiots. (See also: Firebringer still thinking I'm scum.) Going after a strong town role, afterBecause if you really did think that someone "Going after a strong Town role" was scummy you would not have come to "Uber Town" reads on all three.
And? Just because the reason for voting isn't valid doesn't mean the player is scum from it. See also: people are idiots.It is that those three players voted you individually for reasons that at best are borderline valid.
Actually, I can. I just haven't. Not once have I made reference to your older posting. And yet, my scumread existed on you prior to your logical inconsistency, which makes up the majority of my posting on you right now. That's because I haven't even made the case on you yet, out of laziness. Not lack of ability. I simply haven't chosen to make it yet.You can’t articulate anything in terms that isn’t broad generalizations and thus go to the “I’m good so sheep me” well.

Since when? Three of the games I thought were my best scum games, I was lynched in with absolutely no hesitation by the town. (The fourth was also not anything remarkable.)

You're downplaying the value of her role and stubbornly scum reading her for things that are just wrong, no matter how well you try to justify them.
Except BlackStar's posting has been getting consistently better and better as the game progresses. In that post, he shows that he's actually thinking about the possibility the wagon he's on is being driven by scum, so he unvotes and reconsiders.Dragon Knight wrote:If that's all it takes for you to townread someone, you're either crappy town or scum.
