Placeholder ##Vote EMC until he votes

I mean, it's a tradition at this point.

I'm working on reading but it's a lot. I still was hoping someone could summarize.

I haven't been an asshole. Remember his crappy post about that?
I don’t! What was it and why has it struck a cord with you?
The cord it strikes is only that I am trying to not flame/yell/antagonize people. It's a 'damned if I do, damned if I don't' situation from my point of view.

It is also a weak case to put me as scum and incredibly lazy. My crimes are:
  1. being busy and not posting a lot, but definitely giving content
  2. being nice.
I'm okay being a wagon, but at least have something I can counter or explain.
This sounds like a scum defense

Anyway, I like all of today's wagons—except maybe Durga's, where I've come around that she's possibly town, and we should make Flash a wagon instead.
Do you mean you like all of the one vote wagons too?

Not emc, who was voted after I posted, but yep, I think TrPrado and Yoyo could be scum.

Oh, I absolutely cherrypicked the games that I remember being good examples. I'm not going to do a full deep dive of every game you've played, let alone the ones I wasn't in—I'm a lazy WebDipper, not a scientist. But M1010 was a real eye opener for me in terms of what you're capable of as scum.
So I was nice in one game and was scum, therefor I could be scum here. As I pointed out: I was also nice as 3P and as a PR.

So, if anything, the conclusion you should make is I am nice, therefor I most likely am not a VT, yet you reached for scum specifically.

I'd rather make a better second wagon than summit, but I'm growing more and more content with the possibility of your death.

See, so far I’d say you actually have the best reason to vote for me out of the lot. I respect that significantly more than the current votes.

I dont often listen to other people their meta-cases, but Fox is like all zen next to a river, so who knows, this could lead to some good stuff.
I've never had a larger scum boner for you from a statement like this.

You usually always push your own cases and make your opinion known. Now you are sheeping?
Yeah wait - he's got a point. And why couldn't you remember your vote between summit and worcej?
I think if you read my posts from last night that should be pretty apparent

Why would he have a good reason to vote for you and the rest of us don't?

While looking at "mourning" as a tell, HR's passing really went by mildly.

My focus for the next while is to investigate: 1) what made HR a choice for NK1 and 2) Who were they reading close enough that might have contributed to question 1.
What are you getting out of death reactions? What makes you think that indicates something?
In some cases, and probably more so for newer players, making some sort of grand announcement about the demise of a player could be a way of masquerading their scuminess. "I am so town so I am SO sorry at your death."
It might be nothing. It might be a lot.

This is entirely wrong. Getting out of the way does not help us sort YOU. If you're only interested in watching others investigate, you can do that from the god thread.
OK, I'll take that under consideration. It was "advice" picked up from over on mafiascum. Really I think I just want to avoid saying something stupid since those errant posts turn into multiple posts, as per previous games.
