So, mail-mi reread.
Day 1 looks innocuous enough. I could copy/paste my notes on it but the only things that stood out were :
- some light buddying of me. It stops after day 1 though, maybe because he saw it wasn't working (he was my preferred lynch at the end of day 1 after I changed my mind about 2.7). In fact it doesn't only stop, his first mention of me day 2 is to mention I'm scummy for not posting as much. I'm not sure what it means as far as his alignement goes so meh.
- #685 : When Voltaire tries to rally support for a mail-mi lynch, he reminds people of Voltaire's bias against him and says town loses when they mislynch him. The latter is "semi-serious" which is also scummy. Being "semi-serious" is maybe fine at the very beginning of the game when the line between RVS and the actual game is blurry, but after that, you're either joking or making a point, not somewhere in between. Scum loves to maintain ambiguity like that, especially if it's to raise a very weak meta argument against his lynch like he did there. I just don't think town!mail-mi would have felt the need to bring this up with very little pressure on him. This is the post that made me want to lynch him on day 1, and it's still scummy now.
- His vote moves around a lot towards the end, before finally landing on faust. That's not particulalry scummy to me. His hammer on faust is a little weird because he previously stated that (paraphrasing here) faust lied and it was bad, but not scummy bad. It was very close to deadline though, and faust was going to be the lynch no matter what at that point.
Day 2 is where it gets more interesting though. He starts off by voting e, restating the reasons he had on day 1 (e's vote on chairs late day 1, which was pretty weird). He then sheeps yuma into voting me, which I would find scummy because I still don't entirely get that case, except chairs does the exact same thing in the post just above (#1363 and #1364 for reference).
What looks really bad though, is his last post of the day (#1427), which states that he is now fine with lynching ash. This after saying repeatedly that ash's certainty on day 1 was just normal town!ash. While he acknowledges that his opinion has changed, he downplays it by saying it changed "slightly". For reference :
The 23rd? Wow, I should post now. Im in the same boat as teproc with my caught up-ness.
Wel anyway.... Lynch order:
E>>>>>>>liopoil>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>ash.
this is just normal ash.
Going from this to "fine with voting" is not a "slight" change by any stretch of the imagination.
vote: mail-mi
Not a real vote because we need time for Robz, Lekkit and mail-mi to post before we end the day, but I'm fine with a mail-mi lynch.
