Currently spiking on my scumdar are also Uberfish and Catwalk, mainly for making terrible arguments. (See Uberfish above, and Catwalk's post 188.)

agree +10 with this post. not with the catwalk part, but with thestick and uberfish parts.
Injera - about my thestick vote.
originally, it was 18 hours in and I'm not looking for a concrete argument (there aren't any). I don't think his original post was damning, but it was suspicious and there wasn't much to go on - also I feel like thestick gives off his tells best when he is under pressure, so he's a decent person to start a dogpile on. At that point I was looking more for his response than I was to lynch him. I was ready to hop off as soon as he made a townie post defending himself. His eventual response is more damning, though. I was expecting a village thestick to respond like he did in ww15 for being the top vote-getter - confused, a little panicky, "oh no, I don't understand why everyone is voting for me again." Instead I see ww13 thestick (when he was a wolf) - cool, calm, very sparse in his words, almost unaware that anyone is even voting for him. Also agree with Zak - thestick comes off as trying hard not to react to the votes against him, hoping if he stays mostly silent the village will get bored and pick a new candidate. That's a scum strategy, imo.
my current number 2 candidate is solidly uberfish, who should be a good village asset but is NOT currently doing so at all. I'll be paying careful attention to this novice-uber battle, but uber seems more likely of the two to be scum to me. I could join a uber wagon, but at this point (4 hours before deadline) I'd prefer to save that for day 2 and hang thestick.
Injera is getting pushed further down on my list, but isn't off it just yet

Both without any reasoning why you find those 2 worth a BW.
In short those 2 points say scum to me no matter who posts them. Happened to be you hence my vote for you.
Love the town-drunk RP Rowain. I do wish you'd stop thinking like one, though. :D
I don't really know what you're expecting from me here. I posted reasons for my thestick vote, and in this post I elaborated - I think its pretty clear why I am voting for him now. I never voted for Injera - it was just a gut feeling, and I also feel like his response to my comments has given the village info that will be useful in coming days. Truthfully, I am staying open-minded about him - thestick and uberfish are my only real suspects atm.
Rowain, Pindicator - this just feels like a retread of ww13. Whatever you're reading from me was the same BS you read from me in that game, and I'm just as innocent here as I was then. This is just how I play this game.
Please don't go. The drones need you. They look up to you.
