Vote: Morgrim because we need a reason to talk more before the soft deadline and because I think it's a bit more likely to hit scum. You'll note that this is a change from my 1st, 2nd, and 3rd scummiest list, where I had Grujah listed as 3rd. I just don't agree with that anymore. Grujah is seeming townier, and while he doesn't strike me as really, really obvtown, he does strike me as the completely usual Day 1 lynch...which nearly always winds up hitting a townie.
What is your profile of the usual day 1 lynch? Grujah doesn't seem like that to me.
He fits the profile because he's done something that nobody likes. In some games, it's a scumslip or mistaken phrasing, in some games it's lying, in this game it's being almost totally silent. It's the kind of thing that scum isn't going to do day one because it's just a mistake they just don't need to make, and they'll monitor their posts more closely to make sure they don't.
He's done something that's really indefensible, which gives everyone on the wagon the excuse to say, "Well he did X, so lynching him seemed like the right choice!" And what do you say to that? It's the kind of thing scum just doesn't (or hasn't) done Day 1 precisely because it's the kind of thing that gets people lynched.
So you're arguing that it's OK to be totally silent? That it's OK to lie?
If we don't lynch based on things that seem scummy, what do we lynch on? "Well he did X" is ALWAYS an available excuse. Should we never lynch then, since any valid reason for lynching also becomes an excuse if the lynchee flips town?
IMO, "he did X" is a good reason for people to vote for someone. It requires taking a stance. "Voting for him will give us info on others" is a way to avoid taking a stance, and a way to avoid any fallout if it's a mislynch, which is far better for scum. It's different from voting "because he did X".
My profile for "usual day 1 lynch" is "player who fudges some wording, which is subsequently exaggerated as a scumslip". Grujah hasn't done that.
PPE: I didn't realize that he had done that twice -- just saw it the most recent time. Looks even better to me now.
