Bookwyrm627: How am I lying? The post where I move my vote (207) shows a timestamp of April 24th, with the lynch being on April 25th. Yog had just picked up a 5th vote from Flub (post 203), putting the wagons at Yog 5 to Dessimu 3 with less than 24 hours until deadline (probably; I don't remember the exact times for those posts). I moved my vote to secure a second wagon as viable, before anyone dropped off Dessimu and left us with only one real wagon (Yog) at end of day.
You did what????? So are you saying that you voted Dess just to provide a 2nd counter-wagon at the end of the day? Why would anyone who is town want to do this? So your vote on Dess wasn't primarily because he was scummy, but because you want to make sure there was a second wagon? This makes no sense whatsoever...
I couldn't sleep, so let's do my full ISO of Bookwyrm. This may give people more perspective. I've found him scummy since early day 1.
Starting Post 8, or the 4th post of the game...he gives Hyper his 2nd vote before anyone else has been voted. This immediately raised my eyebrows. And on top of that, he makes his Vig shot claim. Usually, people try to avoid doubling up votes so early. And not only did he start this very early wagon, he soft-claims talking about killing him.
Post 13: Not sure what to make of, but he already lists players he spare from his barrage of Vig shots (Meda, Sage and Yog) for being new or absent for awhile, as well as his "Hate to have as scum list" which presumably includes (Hyper from last post, Flub, me and Yogs), plus more Vig shot use talk. (Included because its interesting that a list has been formed so early in the game.
Post 35: Votes Yogsloth for being a liar after Yogs talks about his proposed killing rampage including a NK of JMich. States he is town.
Post 42: Questions Meda about her very early list. Pokes again about it in post 66. Where he curiously points out that Lift has been SK more often than scum. Probably a stretch, but can possibly be construed as providing cover.
Post 106 States he would say he was town like that no matter what his alignment. Discusses that such claims are worthless and after being pressed by Dess, tries to justify his post 8 Vig shenanigans as being "worth it" while admitting to losing track of all the useful commentary it supposedly provoked.
Interesting to note, despite his grand plan to supposedly kickstart the game out of RVS, posts a lot of RVS fluff in the the intervening posts to this point.
Post 147: Switches his vote to Lift over his "history of being too loyal to scum partners" comment which is a direct reference to last game, calling it a slip. (Can be taken as LAMIST)
Post 200: Responds to Dessimu's response to Yogs "peeking N0 asking how that is a "soft" claim.
Post 207: Switches his vote to Dessimu without any real reason except "not really feeling this Yog lynch" Followed by "I think I like this wagon more" (Have to wonder if he picked up on Dess being the cop here. Very odd vote switch which is made odder my his comments just now about why he voted Dess) (To me, the last line really pings me. The use of the word "wagon" in that context makes it appear he is just voting to vote.
To this point he's talked a good game of getting serious early, but to this point he hasn't, instead joking a lot and asking very simple questions, getting a simple answer and then probing no further. Then he limps onto Dessimu's wagon with no real explanation. Certainly can be classified as "actively floating" outside of his soft claim of Vig. And jumping on the "wagon" of the first person to question Yogs about his claim.
