Microfish_1: IF Flub is scum, I'd lean Book, Pooka, Dedo, or Gogtrial.as the other half, but more Book or Pooka.
That's practically everyone else. Obviously the remaining scum has to be there from your perspective :D This is what I meant earlier when I said I just can't seem to click with some of the things you're posting. I'm extremely glad you shot Joe (sorry Joe, I still love you and carry your picture in my wallet on top of my kids' pictures) because I would have definitely had you instead of Pooka as the other scum if I didn't know you're Town.
PookaMustard: Well, uhh, I'm not honestly sure how to answer that. I'm smart enough to have several As and at least one A+ in every college semester, studied to the point that
I felt studying more was the most pointless thing ever and yet...I find the "other kids didn't ace it!" line to ring true sometimes?
That was a bit tongue-in-cheek but I was jokingly referring to a couple of times where you brought up others as sort of defense like "Why are you giving me hard time and not them / I'm writing more than them / etc.". I can't really recall names at the moment (I think I was one of your examples though) and don't really have time to go back and check right now but if you insist maybe I can do it in the afternoon. Still, it wasn't meant as some big argument against you, mostly a tease as such sort of things do remind me of that anecdote with my nephew.
PookaMustard: Erm, look. I'd like you to look over my interactions with bookwyrm and see if I am indeed scummy as hell or an inexperienced player as gogtrial says,
since you agreed with bookwyrm about how you read me. You're saying you would have me as the second lynch if flub doesn't go through. My question is, how much is my position in your possible scumteam based on YOUR own reads and not Wyrm's? If you saw the interactions I mentioned, does it change how you see me there?
I can't say I share all of Wyrm's views on you. I don't find you scummy as hell at all. Nor did I say in #1004 that I agree with how he sees you and with his arguments about you. He does make some good points but just like Gogtrial (well, not just like him as his POV is way different from mine but still) I can't see/feel some of the things Wyrm is seeing/feeling. So no, I wouldn't say it's entirely influenced by him. I said I agree with most of the things he points out and talks about in the game as a whole, not about you in particular.
In my eyes your just the logical choice based principle of elimination after looking at what happened so far with wagons, the suspicions and opinions I have formulated based on everything that has transpired in the game and the way I see some of the players.
I admit Wyrm's arguments are making me feel better about my own opinion but I wouldn't say it's formed because of him.
Gogtrial is giving me the slightest pause as he is (or at least was) so sure of you and not terribly long ago I also had you leaning Town but since then too much new information came out that just can't be ignored.
Finally, I just can't (kind of refuse to) believe Wyrm has fooled me like that.
As for your interactions with Wyrm - I know I have to try and be objective but my vision is likely somewhat tainted already and no matter how I look at things I always tend to end up with the same conclusions. It may be bias at this point although I hope it's not (is it if it turns out you are right?).
Something else of note: Flub has been sitting on L-2 for about 12 hours according to forum software. Although gogtrial and Wyrm aren't in the same timezone I still think they would have made use of this chance if they were the scum team so I'd say we can entirely discard this scenario once and for all.
We are slowly approaching the final stretch. I do prefer Flub but I won't put him at L-1 by myself. I agree with Gogtrial that this has to be unanimous.
