I did that Depore re-read. I originally thought her vote on Xix was stronger than Xix's vote on Moonin but after looking into her post again it's fairly obvious this was not the case. Blaming it on tunnel vision (because tunnel vision is a good scapegoat for one's own idiocy). Anyway.
##Unvote ##Vote DeporeDepore's initial vote on Xix actually looks a lot like something I would expect from newbscum: she aggressively voted somebody who looked like a potential major wagon, but her vote contains significant padding (the accusations of aggression and hypocrisy) and fails to actually explain how her target's behavior is scummy. Newbscum can't easily analyze for scum intent because they have no experience scumhunting and already know who is scum anyway, and Depore's jump on Xix seems to have this exact problem.
Moving on from Depore's initial post, I'm finding myself strongly disliking her
#88, if only because of how much leeway it gave her. At the time, Xix, One and Moonin were all notable targets, and this post just gave Depore the chance to attack either one of them should the Xix wagon die out. Given that One and Moonin were fairly easy to attack, it doesn't particularly look like original scumhunting, either. Considering that Depore
dropped her suspicion on Moonin after he posted some content and stopped looking like an easy target, I'm fairly confident her intent from the beginning was to jump on the players who would likely not take much effort to lynch.
I'll concede that I was probably wrong on Xix, if only because a second look at Depore's vote makes me feel like the Xix wagon was a construct being used by scum for an earlygame push. If I turn out to be wrong on Depore I'll probably reconsider. Xix still needs to post some better content, though. I will rage if we end up letting him coast by on all the passes we're giving him.
Other stuff:
Regarding One... eh. I've been reading a lot of his posts, and I can't seem to judge them as anything other than derptown earnesty. I don't believe appeasement is a scumtell when used by newbies, either. It's closer to null. It really feels like One is being lynched for being a weaker player rather than lynching scum. See Depore for an example of what I believe newbscum would actually be doing.
@Navarus: I like the Just case. The thought that he was acting rather ignorant/survivalist crossed my mind last night and I actually still feel this way, so I'd be willing to switch to him. Actually, I think he's a better D1 lynch than most targets today (One, Moonin, Orwen), but I don't consider him to be worse than Depore.
@Yuan: As far as I know, I already explained everything you're asking, or at least made posts where I did so in the process of talking about other things. I'll give links if necessary. While I'm at it, though, I'll say that I thought Moonin looked fairly townie at the time Xix attacked him. Pushing somebody to 3 votes during the RVS with no written is the kind of thing a townie would want to do to draw unnecessary attention and get discussion going, not scum. I felt Xix's vote on Moonin had scum motivation when I initially attacked him.
As for the other content, why the hell are you
throwing scum pairings around on day 1? That's ridiculous and a very easy way for scum to set up unnecessary connections between players that further their own agendas. It'd be nice if we didn't get ahead of ourselves. I am glad you're at least considering Depore, however. Is there any specific reason you prefer to lynch One over her at this point, though?
