Right, so Shadow replaces in, sees Om is under quite a bit of pressure on Day 1 (he was one of the leading wagons for most of the day) and just starts distancing from him calling Om scum. Motovation is simple enough..Om is a weaker player and under suspicion, bus him and throw a vote on him. An Om lynch was a realistic possibility that day.
Day 2 + 3 ignores Om save for one throwaway comment early D2 because the town was'nt wagoning Om that day period, until Empking replaces in and he makes this
strange comment. Ignores Empking until straight after Malakittens
votes Empking. Shadow is quick to interact whenever the slot looks to be in trouble.
Start of D4 he says Emp and Sal are scummy. Malakittens votes Empking, shadow says nothing about it, does'nt vote Empking or Salamance.. just calls Emp and Sal scummy. In fact in page 80 Shadow makes 6 posts without voting Sal or Empking for seemingly no reason.
In
#1987 he knows the wagon on Empking is likely, he is calling Empking scum but does'nt vote Empking.
KoC votes for Salamance and straight after this vote Shadow votes for Salamance in
this post. Should be noted although PS did'nt vote Sal by this point, he was giving him a lot of grief.
So basically, he called Emp and Sal scum. Sees the vote on Emp, does nothing. Shadow does'nt really want to push the Empking lynch through as Salamance was a very viable lynch option (and remember Empking was a watcher - a powerful PR).
But he does'nt vote Sal at first either because he does'nt want to be seen trying to start a counter-wagon to Empking which would look bad if people wagoned empking instead.
He only votes Salamance as soon as others start the Salamance wagon and start pushing him. Yet when somebody tried to start the Empking wagon..he did'nt join.
So it was calling Empking scum,saying Empking was one of his 2 preferred lynches, but trying not to actually lynch him, you know?
Then cop claim comes etc.
As for Seanald save for one comment, mostly ignores him until page 91.
So here is
page 91
Shadow posts complaining about the wagon on him. Next post PS asks Shadow what he thinks of Sean's big catch up post. Shadow says he needs to read it more in depth.
PS calls bullshit in #2254 and Shadow's reponse is:
Why haven't I mentioned Seanald? People have been attacking him for quite awhile, and he's got the same amount of posts as Espeonage adjusted for time actually spent playing the game. Maybe I sympathize with the following because I'm in a similar situation, yet, I'm still here trying my damnedest to propagate discussion and read, so maybe I should think more critically of it maybe as an excuse.
I don't get it either.
Anyway to note:
The fact that he finds TheFool suspicious is disconcerting
is all Shadow says regarding Sean's read on the fool.
Next time Sean posts Shadow's repsonse is
this...which is fake rage w/e
Why would Shadow caps lock that question?, he did'nt even ask Seanald a question about TF directly. Just not genuine.
So yeah, then Shadow starts bussing Seanald from there...from the first opportunity he gets after PS(the confirmed town) started pushing Sean as scum and called Shadow out on not interacting with Sean.
Sean's slot was in real danger of being lynched.
Start of D6 Sal calls Sean scum, lucky calls Sean scum and with PS tunnelling on Sean, Sean was in serious danger of being lycnhed. In fact he was the likely lynch of the day. Shadow himself was also in big danger of being lynched based on the events of D5.
There is Shadow's motovation for faking the guilty on Sean. They were both in big trouble.
So they decided for one of them to fake a guilty on the other, the two of them were'nt gonna survive, might as well try to clear one of them by taking his partner down...Shadow bussed Sean as Shadow was in less trouble.
However Shadow did'nt want to be night killed by red scum so he had to come up with something that would have a guilty on Sean but a role that would'nt be a threat to red scum.
Hence the eavesdropper that only works on black scum instead of a role that can get guiltys on either scum team.
