So let's talk gkrieg. He's provided the first reason to suspect him himself:
Hey mcmc this game has been going for half a day already: more than enough time for you to tell us if gkrieg is scum.
Is he?
Also after the Space Alert game, I decided that I was going to take a long break, but couldn't stay away. I would've been much less keen to play this game as scum, and would be lurking a lot harder.
Now gkrieg isn't exactly lurking, but there certainly is a lack of effort. Most of his posts are one-liners without much substance. It feels like he is artificially keeping his activity level up.
We also have this:
Faust is being pestering and playing both sides. I think that means he is probably town?
Ugh.. I appreciate your calm behaviour, in that people getting genuinely angry in-thread isn't nice, but I can pretty much feel a careless shrug in your words there.
Why is inconsistent!faust prob!town for "playing both sides" -- isn't that exactly how scum work to find a likely wagon for a mislynch?
I agree with Space here. vote: faust
Although I would much rather lynch a lurker than faust D1.
So he would rather lynch someone else, but still votes for me?
And this:
I think right now I'm on the edge with Galzria, TWM, and Datswan. As in, I think they are scummy, in that I don't think they have done anything townie.
But Idplay has?
I thought his defense was townie in that he tried to defend himself, instead of just fading into the background.
This looks promising. Vote: Idplay
Though I am quite confused that e and gkrieg, two people who have previously defended Idplay, are now voting for him. Do you want to give us an explanation of what changed your mind?
He sounded a lot scummier in the few posts before my vote. He still sounds scummy in his defense.
First the defense is townie, then it is scummy.
Now contradictions aren't necessarily scummy, but they indicate a lack of involvement in the game. Which again fits the theory that scum!gkrieg would not be very motivated for this game.
I wouldn't say that I've been lurking, or "not putting much effort" into this game at all. Having short posts doesn't at all mean that I'm not putting much effort into this game.
I thought IDPTG's first defense was townie, but then he wasn't giving a townie defense of himself in the second part of his post. Are you saying that I'm scummy for changing my mind?
I think you (faust) have been scummy today. I would rather lynch someone else D1 (as you have also pointed out that you want to lynch a lurker), because I think I will be able to tell in later days if you are scum or not. That is why I would rather lynch someone else, even when I was voting for you.
You are treating my posts like they all happened at one point in time. It is clear if you actually go over the stuff in context that I thought that IDPTG had a townie defense, then time went on, he posted some more stuff, and I didn't think he was townie anymore. You are trying to find inconsistencies where there aren't any. This case is legitimately bad and very misleading as to what I've actually done this game so far.
