1. I'm one of the most experienced players. The experienced players are usually going to be the ones leading the discussion and coming up with most of the leads. If you're the only experienced play left you're going to have a nice advantage over the town. Considering I'm one of these players, and so is Naggy, he realizes that once he's gone with me it'll be easier for him to twist the town into doing what he wants to.
2. It's easy. With my push on Naxus it's easy to go. "HE WAS PUSHING ON THE DOCTOR HE MUST BE SCUM!!!!" Of course when you look at this argument it really doesn't make much sense. Sure it might be a pile of WIFOM but do you really think any scum would be risking all these votes just to do some WIFOM. Yes that's even more WIFOM. WIFOM aside I can't see what good reason one would have for doing that if they were scum, since you all think that I'm scum that that's why you please tell me these good reasons. (Wanting to lynch the doctor is not a valid case as the pressure was already going away from him. By the time I posted that lynch was 99% not going to happen without a counterclaim)
3.I'm Town. Yes any time that a scum can off a town it's a good thing. No loses for the scum and they get off pressure free.
Oh and I'm active. I forgot about that one!(Look at post number chart in my big post)
Your activity defense is blatant bs. You mention activity like it is the god given irrefutable evidence of towniness and in the POTC game when you were town you excused inactivity/lurking as not being necessarily a scum tactic. Either way you are trying pretty hard to push your "activity" as a solid defense when it is not there. As far as your reasons you listed for why nag wants you dead. This is more you painting nag as scum in my eyes than legitimately defending yourself from accusations.
I'm not saying that activity = townieness, but active players are good for the survival of the game. Thusly it's a nice thing for the scum if they can kill off the active players that aren't scum, leaving only active scum to direct the lynch.

However your case rested on whether nax was mafia, and it seems quite unlikely. Unvote

Which would more or less give a basic somewhat satisfactory reason for why you would mention your activity in that post but has nothing to do with why you made it such a key part in your big analysis post.

Anyway, on to address some points that you made.

I am not twisting anything. And I don't see any evidence. I barely even mention naxus to my knowledge, except to say that I didn't see the scummy tells on Naxus, that everyone else seemed to see. Yet I do see the scummy tells all over you that nobody else seems to see yet.
Nor do I call really attacking those who went against Naxus. So I would really need you to provide some proof in this case.
I went against you, of course. And then against Sheep for hammering. And then I may have said something about Fir and Comm. And I remember questioning a statement that Streaker had made. I still don't see anywhere in there how I tried to thwart the case on Naxus. At that point I think i was only trying to really build a case on you.

Alright fine then. Give me some time. I do not build cases on nontruths. I will search this thread to present evidence of your hopping. And, in fact wouldn't it be the opposite. Wouldn't a scummy have to try to find things that don't exist to build a case on someone who is not on his side, so he can hopefully get them lynched? Isn't that what you are doing with me, because nothing is there?

I didn't bring that up to say that Naxus was scum. I think I messed up in writing it so it came off that way. I was trying to explain why I kept on voting him.

It wasn't a key part, it was just another note. Part of the reason I did bring it up though because for a Day 1 lynch in which we have the least of info to go on, lynching the most active player isn't necessarily the best solution. Mainly for the future well being of the thread.

Again I think this is fairly wifomy saying scum would go after the active. Lots of scum go after the newer players and inactive players who they can twist words and know won't defend themselves well. In my experience this is more one of nag's scumtell than what you are claiming in the games I have seen. I also think you have contradicted yourself about nag going after an easy target and wanting to get rid of you as an experienced active player. Experienced active players from what I know don't add up to being easy lynches.
As far as vio, she seems to be off in her own little world concerning iliad. Most of what she has written fits out of context but are inaccurate to the game but this latest attempt has been rather weak.

I agree that Illy/Vio stuff is not something too important right now, but I'm not sure I agree that you so easily disregard Chu's behaviour. Initially, I had no problems with it, but his recent defence is extremely weak and he's sticking with it and trying to emphasize his activity and how he's contributing to the town with it - which seems extremely scummy to me.

Isn't it in our best interest to have the most talk time possible, not the most joke time possible?
It is, but that doesn't mean the joke stage wasn't fun, or that I can't point out that it was fun. I wasn't suggesting we stay in the joke vote stage, or it's preferable to normal mafia just talking about how it ended and that it's generally fun because of the overall silliness. You of all people, should agree.
Not exactly sure why you're sticking to this so much.

Although it is a valid point about nag nearly hammering naxus save for a somewhat fortunate invalid vote. I think that while the part in fircoal's argument about activity to be absolutely worthless, I feel like it's more a shouting match between nag and fircoal more than it is solid evidence. Vote pattern wise, I think nag might have tried to stealth hammer and missed the opportunity. I'll take up this nark case later then as I think the wagon hopping was a weak evidence base to begin with by nag initially that was strengthened later by fircoal's actions. So I will unvote for now while I wait for some explanation for that almost hammer.

Unvote soundman, I made it as I thought it would be the next best case after Naxus.
Don't want to make to much of a post off just skimming, but some random thoughts of mine:
- I believe Naxus' claim of doctor is real, and he's reasoning of acting scummy valid.
- Off first skim I don't think Fir is very scummy. I can see his reasoning for continual pressure on confirmed doc, seems to be actively scum-hunting.
- Jerado looks pretty sucumarining atm. Hasn't posted much except for joining a wagon.
As much as I love big walls of text, I don't really have time atm to go over it properly and come up with much substance. Will try and get through it by tomorrow. Any chance of getting a votecount / deadline?

Also, why would you ever wanna call a deadline when you aren't even caught up reading? Again, Shaggy's behaviour seems to point at wanting to end the day ASAP. And again, that's only what scum would do.
Fircoal wrote:Yes experienced active players aren't easy lynches, but that's why it's such a good idea for scum to lynch me now, because even I will admit I'm playing like shit. While I don't think what I did was that scummy, obviously the town does, and it's not like it's very hard right now to finger me as scum. Thusly it's a prime time to get rid of me. And I don't think it's WIFOMy in the scene of in the case of a good player playing badly and a bad player playing badly who would you wanna try to lynch. The better player of course. I have basically been WIFOMing up this whole thing, but meh, that's kinda just how I see this at the moment. I still think it'd be suicide for a scum to do what I did. And stupid no matter what side you're on unless you aren't on a side, but I don't always have my mind in the most rational of places.
