@Wildfire, mentioning the SK can also be looked at as neutral-hunting, which mafia are prone to do (I guess. The only experience I have noted that to be the case was LOTR [or was it the Hobbit] mafia where Seppel was doing that.)
Also, Proph has proven pretty good at nailing scum for RVS posts. I know there was at least one game where he nailed two scum off the bat, then questioned his instincts as the game went on. (Can't remember which game but I can find it if need be.)
Considering I had a legitimate reason to speculate on the existence of a second source of killing (to determine the probable game length and thus the necessity of going to Ruchperion), make of it what you will. As far as I'm concerned, if there is a SK, it's just another scum to me.
Fumbling RVS as town is something of a specialty of mine. He's welcome to hound on it all he wants, but he really should know better, considering he's replaced into a game where I did it (Deus Ex) and mentored me for another game where I did it (Castlevania), both as town.

This (the bolded part) seems like a pointless statement. When isn't an SK considered scum, and why do you feel the need to say it?
Cyth: LnG had just said that scum sometimes hunt third parties. I assume because it's scumhunting they can legitimately do. I was asserting that that was not my intention when I brought up the SK.

Something about this post reads weirdly to me. I can't put my finger on what, though (probably because I always have a hard time read Cythare). Does anyone else see anything scummy here, or is it my gut just freaking for no reason?

Well, now that that's cleared up...
Stating something doesn't make it true, and the wording you used seemed forced - an SK is a third-party, but it is scum, and the wording you used made it seem like you were defending your potential SK hunting as though they were scum, rather than actually just saying that you will scumhunt and hey maybe it's an SK instead of Mafia.
Basically the same thing I'm accusing Cythare of, but with a different bent. He's putting on a big show for us so we can see him being a BIG BAD SCUMHUNTING TOWNIE. You're overexplaining yourself and trying to make sure that we know that everything you're doing comes from a town-motivated perspective.

Can we have Megiddo removed from the forum forever please?
i'm pretty sure i can find your ***** online within 3 minutes
We haven't *really* played together, but I do explain things a lot. I'm not one of these types like Seppel or Burning_Earth who'll just throw out an accusation and then check out (and somehow come off townie while doing it).
Seems to me you're also putting on something of a show. You're busy accusing everyone else, but your vote is still on your first post RVS pick.

@Seppel - Proph was the first one voting me
@Megiddo - You said AsianInvasion was secretly scum, but no one would ever vote him.
I'm not sure on Cythare but I'm leaning town at the moment.
AsianInvasion seems off to me.
So I'd say you're right about him. But you also said no one would vote him. Vote AsianInvasion. Guess you're still wrong.

Have you read his posts? He's got a lower scumhunting:mechanics-gaming ratio than *I* do. Literally every one of his posts before this page is about mechanics. He's in favor of a mass claim. And when he finally posts a non-mechanics post, he jumps on Cythare with no reasoning of his own.

What's so confusing?
I have a hunch you're town, if for no other reason than your reaction to my "useless" jab.
You suggest that somebody is scummy.
I look into that person and see that yep, they do actually look like scum.
I vote that person.
I mean, I see how that could be confusing if you think I'm scum.

Cythare I think has made a bad logical assumption. He thinks I thought he was scummy. No, I thought he made a post was a post scum could make and so I decided to investigate it. Please don't mistake me: When I think someone is being outright scummy I won't hold my vote and I know how to use the word scummy. But if you are town I need to see things that tell me you are town so I don't go after you. I try my best to use specific words to suti specific situations, and not being a fan of a post means I think it is a bad post. Bad doesn't always mean scum. Thinking about it you've gone two things I generally like since that post in a) giving me the information I wanted right after (which I pointed out) and b) people have voted you for no good reason. Okay you didn't do the second one but yeah.
I am probably a bad person for seeing Arianrhod's huge post about the worlds and thinking to myself "This is such a scum post." I admit this is unfair of me to say, but it was such obvious overkill. So many words that could have been better spent discussing players after a certain point. Overwhelming posts tend to worry me. Mind you they only worry me from very skilled players, and I don't know if Arianrhod has that reputation or not.
One game here and I have been playing mafia consistently since 2003, to answer a question.

Also I forget who said it (and I am pressed for time) but the people who brought up mass claiming are more town to me than scum because that's a pretty random thought for scum to have.

Do you always feel you are in a position as town to give other players permission on how to proceed?
