Okay.
Glen and Tom are still solid townies to me. Looking back over yesterday (as well as doing a full game review) during the night, I lean town on Soppy because I felt his defenses were more than adequate, and I lean town on Smodge because he was a powerful vote in the swing from Yoshi to Alice.
That leaves only one person.
##Vote: CarthratDay 1
Pursues easy target (Glen)
Puts Alex above Tonfa in terms of scumminess, giving him leeway to vote to save Tonfa if necessary
Ends day with vote on easy target that, if train happened to reach station, could have been passed of as "well his noobishness was scummy" as opposed to trying to justify a switch to Excal to save Tonfa which would have been much harder to do (especially since he had stated he believed Excal to be town)
ALEX IF YOU ARE STILL READING THIS GAME THIS IS WHY I WISH YOU WOULD ELABORATE DAY 1 CASES MORE Day 2
Goes to me over Alice for the Excal train and only flips to Alice after extensive lurking
Choosing Bard over Alex forced by the need to be consistent with his prevfiously stated views
hereDay 3
Pursues easy target (Mage) that allows him to coast through day while others are pushed to the forefront
Encourages people give me townie credit for my Bard actions - possible indirect endorsement of his own
Claims Alice is second choice - possible throwaway statement to garner extra credit if lynch somehow swings to Alice while letting him sit on Mage (Note that all of his anti-Alice commentary is done while Alice is in no serious danger)
Doesn't comment on Alice's scumminess now that serious Alice train has formed; in fact, he objects to a pairing idea with Alice in it
Note: At this point I've realized ScumRat
would benefit from trying to shoot down Tom's Alice/Soppy theory because Alice's flip made Soppy a huge mislynch target and said Soppy mislynch would make Rat look good
Note 2: Claims he still wishes to push Mage case despite swing to Mage being extremely unlikely, yet made comments earlier about how Mage's continued pursuit of an unlikely lynch (me) was scummy - this is very similar, if not the same thing
Rest of day is spent as AliBomb traffic cop, which is a good activity cover
Day 4
Votes Smodge (null tell)
Jumps back onto easy target (Mage) at first opportunity (
given by Kiro)
Rest of day plays out fairly predictably after Mage self-destructs
Conclusion: Rat's one solid vote on scum was necessitated by his previous opinions and otherwise he's been sitting back and picking at easy targets while not having to get involved in the main melees. This is coasting at its finest, and it's time he was called on it.
