Also, with the light of Jaime - I literally think Jaime was setting up bozo to take the noose for causing a tie.
And TBH, Jaime was also pocketing me like a mofo on D1... which I think was to play more into getting me to trust Jaime and feel confidence in him being town instead of actually dissecting bozo's argument.
It's a shit feeling, which I am prone to do, but fuck Jaime strikes me as scum...
I did not consider that Jamie was trying to set me up to tie the vote, because his first, invalid, vote for xorxes came before I said I would tie the vote. However, I find it suspicious that he asked me if I would vote for xorxes over damo before he voted for xorxes, then voted for xorxes after I said I would not. I also find it suspicious he used an invalid format to vote for xorxes, and only corrected it after it was pointed out, and less than 1 minute before EOD. I did not see his corrected vote until after the deadline, or else I might have voted to force a tie. It was these things that made me consider that Jamie could have been bussing xorxes. Even if xorxes is town and Jamie therefore didn't care if xorxes got lynched, Jamie trying to get off the damo wagon at EOD looks questionable.

I think xor and jamie are my top picks now for lynching. But, I think voting xor may be better because jamie's style is more likely to be caught in a lie later. Xorxes is so polarizing I don't know that I want them around.

just so yall know a vote is valid regardless of if theres a typo. the gms still need to count votes. typos dont invalidate intent. if you attribute misspelling to being scummy youre making a huge mistake.

↑xorxes: "People I wouldn't vote for at this stage: bozo, Jamiet, foodcoats, Nephthys
People I'm not particularly inclined to vote..."
@Xorxes - Although there are reasons for town to avoid a position and try to blend in, I generally find hedging particularly on mechanics to be scum indicative. Town doesn't have as much information so it can be natural to be uncertain in reads... but when it comes to mechanics we are all on even footing.
With that in mind: Neph, thd, Worcej, and Xorxes all posted similar gibberish regarding Bozo's propositions. They did not take aggressive negative postures like Brain/Jamie nor did they attempt to discuss it like I did. Instead, they each avoided an opinion or argument regarding it by stating they didn't think it would work because we wouldn't get everyone on board.
I find this reasoning to be scummy and the fact that you choose to attack my vote on you rather than properly address his proposition with a position doesn't help your case. In answer to your question, the scum motivation to hedge on a mechanics question is the same reason scum ever hedge to remain flexible while blending in...
While I am currently willing to vote for any of Neph, thd, Worcej, and Xorxes, I was already getting scum vibes from you. You're posts have rarely seemed directed towards stirring the pot or forcing positions that can be helpful for solving the game, yet I think you are reading closely (then again maybe your reading comprehension is just higher than Jamie and Brain) and of the few questions you have asked there has been very little or no follow up.
love this post by DRCJC
this is towny in how he explores other elements of bozos lists. he looks at neph, xorx, thd, and worcej skeptically here and explains why. his reasoning on xorx is solid here and articulated in a non scummy way.

page 9 / orig Sadly, not much development so far.
Some more thoughts from what I can see
Bozo -slight townlean - comes straight in discussing claiming, did something similar in M40 (as scum). To his credit though, he does seem to be pushing it a little harder this game. Would like someone to weigh in a little on his town meta/refer me to such a game.
CJG - townlean - Was scum with me in cultafia and so I paid a reasonable amount of attention to his style of posting, seems different here.
Food - slight scumlean - awkward first posts but seems to be throwing the whole new thing around a little too much for my liking
Damo - scumlean - hasn't really contributed too much in my opinion, making a reasonable amount of posts about not much. Would like to hear some thought out opinions from him, notably very little reasoning behind most of his posts (#122).
Worcej - claimed town?
Everyone else is either null, hasn't posted enough or is called brainbomb.

both neph and worcej have similar weak reads on damo. weak reasons to stay on damo. neph doesnt seem to give a read on worcej. he doesnt read most of the players either. his bozo read attempts to imply hes doing the same thing hes done as scum. his only actual townread on CGJC looks pockety.

↑Nephthys: "Bozo -slight townlean - comes straight in discussing claiming, did something similar in M40 (as scum). To his credit tho..."
I don't think I can say anything about bozo yet. He has only discussed mechanics but I've seen him do that as either alignment.
"CJG - townlean - Was scum with me in cultafia and so I paid a reasonable amount of attention to his style of posting, seems different here."
Please be more specific. What is he doing differently?
"Food - slight scumlean - awkward first posts but seems to be throwing the whole new thing around a little too much for my liking"
I think he's town, or a very good player.
"Damo - scumlean - hasn't really contributed too much in my opinion, making a reasonable amount of posts about not much. Would like to hear some thought out opinions from him, notably very little reasoning behind most of his posts (#122)."
I have not felt any scumvibes from him. Nothing extremely towntelling either.
"Worcej - claimed town?"
He has, and according to him he never hardclaims falsely, so he must be town
strange. very very strange.

this seems dodgy. like Jamie did catch him and france tries to wriggle out.
if the game is simple 2 scum voted damo because xorxes was scum. if thats the case scumteams always just xorx, france, neph

xorxes has somewhat alleviated my suspicion of him for now, and brainbomb seems more town like, so my preferred lynch pool is down to Jamie, thdfrance, and worcej.
Here are my complete reads:
town lean: DrCJG, foodcoats, Nephthys
neutral: xorxes, brainbomb
scum lean: Jamie, thdfrance, worcej
My first choice is Jamie, since he has failed to address a number of my questions.

The problem with today's result is that it shows Damo is just rather bad at the game, which will make him rather hard to read when he really is scum.
I would rather have lynched Xorxes but there we go.
@Brainbomb: Do you still suspect Xorxes? Would you vote for him tomorrow? Do you want us to do a BLAM?
Weren't you scum with damo is a game? It sounds like you are making an excuse for scum reading damo. If you preferred to lynch xorxes, why didn't you make a case against him? Why did you wait until EOD to move your vote back to xorxes, and why did you use an invalid format when you voted for xorxes?
Okay. I have subsequently answered all of this, I believe, mostly in response to foodcoats, so I refer you to those answers.
The one thing I see I have not answered is the very last part of your question. The answer is simply that it was a typo. On my phone keyboard, the full stop (period) is right beside the space bar, and the space bar is annoyingly narrow. I therefore hit the full stop by accident.
An important point in relation to this: I would remind everyone that, as I have often said before, the Peterbot is a useful tool, but it is not a replacement for the GM. Only the GM's vote counts and the GM's adjudications are official. My vote for Xorxes contained a small typo, but I would have expected the GM to accept it as a valid vote, to be honest. Therefore I reject any suggestion that I was deliberately attempting to cast an invalid vote.

I am town! And I am not calling the GM a liar. But for real, I was confused by the opening flavor because the perspective was written as if the town would have been the SEAL's. That confused me, but I understand now.

I really like your posts today brain, I am following and it sounds right. I would substitute Jamie for thd in your scum list though.
##VOTE xorxes
I think we should have a xorxes and a Jamie wagon, or a xorxes/Jamie wagon and a thd wagon. I still think that if thd was mafia thd would have said something at this point. They've visited the site in the last 24 hours though, and I certainly don't think a townie would think the best defense is silence.
But I feel better voting for xorxes than for jamie or for thd at the moment; I still think those counter-wagons would be revealing in terms of seeing who gets on what.
