Yes, citing balance is kind of derp considering they said roles and alignments would not be linked. We could have a scum Witch. :V This possibility is, of course, unlikely if your role works as advertised due to Zakeri's death. Unless it's Just As Planned but you know how that works out in scum games.
I still cannot entirely see how Serela can even purport her actions to be townie due to the massive lying and deceiving going on and the downright crazy gambits, but I also cannot see how scum would really benefit from such a song and dance. I'm inclined to lean on the scum side of things, and I admit that I am hesitant in part due to the way this has been moving and my gut has been saying that, warm fuzzy feelings or not, the game will make a turn for the worst in the case of NeoSerela actually being town. It's a terrifying thought, really, and leaving her at L-1 with still 24 hours to go also seems frightening.
On a different but related note.
Chaore. I fail to still see how your case on me is anything other than that you think I am picking on newbies, which is more a matter of attitude than anything else. "Easy case" is a silly argument because obvScum, or obvScummy, is no reason to not pursue any person. If it smells as scum and acts as scum, you pursue it; whether you are trying to find fault with someone who acts in an obvTown way or with someone in an obvScum way, scum is scum; I don't see why you must try to find fault with townie-like players in lieu of the scum-like players.
Am I chasing something obvious? Perhaps. But I see no reason the obvious cannot be the scummy, and have as yet found little reason to turn to many others. From the way you are talking it is my sincerest belief that you are taking this a bit too aggressively, as aside from one of my comments, the insinuation that you may be reacting over-defensively to most my suspects being lurkers is linked to your low amount of posts, I have ill made any comments with the intention to draw out aggression or otherwise.
To call another's confusion "retarded fucking reasoning" may be one of the reasons the newbies may not feel at home in these sort of games, as the cutthroat way you approach your case on me removes the "party" from "partygame" and turns it into a confrontationalist public sensation moreso than the game it is meant to be. It is honestly just demotivating.
Am I being arrogant in asserting the above? Perhaps. I'm no proper judge of that. The sentiment still stands. Tone down the hostility. It won't kill you to be civil.
Ninjas: As far as chasing lurkers goes, I am still baffled by how you decide that something I scarcely mentioned at all must definitely play a big part in my criteria for scum. Yes, lurking is scummy, but it is not the sole standard by which I decide if someone is worth scrutiny or not. If it was, I'd have to run a train on Kefit as he is easily one of the posters with the least amount of posts here, if not the least. The difference is that what he posts has actual contributions; the ones I leveled my finger at did not; their contributions were/are meager and not conductive to proper scumhunting.
