Looking at the D6 vote, it was close, 4-2. With Zipped being scum, I think there was at least one other scum on him. If we don't count cabot, it's either Splinter and/or Kalor. Sky was on Splinter that day which makes me feel slightly better about him.
come on man there was a countdown like 3 posts above this.
why am I being discounted

These are the most interesting posts I found from Zipped:
this is a recurring theme through a lot of his posts, he consistently says he townreads all three of Splinter, Blarg and I. This changes towards the end of Blarg's life here:
And then yesterday, when he changed his view on me before he evaporated.
lol
He mentions Kalor and L_P here as potentially scummy, which he doesn't ever discuss again except in this post yesterday:
This was pretty much all he said of LP and Kalor yesterday. His SkyOdin read isnt something that was hinted at before, he only states that SkyOdin and Kyan are neutral reads:
So what do I take from that?
I think Splinter is likely town, and Zipped was distancing himself through the game from getting involved with the Blarg/cabot/Splinter face-off cause he knew they were likely all Town and didn't want to get drawn into it too much.
I feel better on Sky, partly through how he's been lumped with Kyan by Zipped, and sort of pushed by him in lylo, and partly because I have went back on the Virgin claim, mainly because I don't know if it would be the first fake claim I would go to.
I mean, it does work as scum, but it's just a little out there.
I'm not sure if it really changes anything on Kalor/LP. He only mentions them twice and the second time was sort of impossible to ignore, because the people he had as townreads meant that he therefore had to have them as scum.
I think Zipped maybe went too hard on townreading Splinter and I, and ended up paying for it in lylo.

Sky's in the back of my head but I'm looking through the game again today. I don't really have a particular focus yet.
It largely went down to how it felt like they just hopping onto larger votes at times and just going along with the game, although I'm a lot more split now. Their claimed role complicates it more since the role makes sense considering that we could have had three night kills at most.

This was more of a question to the mods than a query about the countdown.

Well there's a chance you've played the best scum game ever, but you're the second last person I want dead.
I prefer to focus on the other three.
This feels disingenuous, look at the votes on the last page, skyodin is only sitting on the winning wagon two times, with CCS and Ri.
Kalor was the one who was pretty regularly on the lynch vote. Starting on day 3, he was on it consistently every day. Day 1 he was mostly MIA, and Day 2 he had a vote on me.
That's part of the reason I'm more split on him. That reason might have worked a couple of days ago but at this point it doesn't really. I don't really have a compelling argument against him so I'm looking at everyone else.
I was on it but I was early on the Ri and Blarg vote and middle of the road with Isaac and Zeusy. The timing means more than just being on it.
I'm gonna take a look at the Ri lynch again, to my mind I thought you were the one who really kickstarted it.
I need to check and see if I my memory serves me right, if so then who was a viable target at that point, if not then well it's worthless.
I voted for them the previous day but I didn't vote immediately on the day after when they were lynched.
LP is fairly quiet in every game, his activity doesn't tell me much. His contributions this game have been lacking, so there's not much I can point to as being clearly scummy. But the few bits and pieces I do remember from him just feel like real token efforts. Like he'll start going through past posts of a dead player but he just quotes a couple of them and describes what's happening in them and then move on. His sudden push against me yesterday was a similar thing, he described a few things I'd done, but I couldn't see the thought process that was taking him from those actions to the scumread. It was more like they were random examples dredged up to try and support a scumread rather than things he had read and thought "hmm this guy might be scum".

How so?
You're on most of the big wagons, Kalor missed a few and also hammered Zipped.
though, in fairness, I don't read that hammer as town. I read it as desperate scum.
I think it's clear 3 of us will be happy with either of ye dying, it's up to one of you to try and contest that theory.
I knew that hammering would make me look like scum but I didn't see much happening for the rest of the day so I did it. I thought that Splinter forgot to vote based on the fact that his previous post sounded like something you say before a vote so I could have waited for him if I wanted to.
Well sure that could be true.
As well as the desperate scum theory.
Any semblance of a case developed kalor?

I see Kalor on 5/7 majority votes. One of the other 2 is when we killed the neutral.
I'm only on 3.

If Sky and I are scum buddies, then why call attention to me on D3 with a vote when I'm staying in the background? Bus?

Also I'd be wary of taking Splinter off the table.
Honestly not really. I've been looking through people's posts and not seeing anything new with what we know now.
With LP I still don't like their hammer on CCS but they at least justified it by saying that not much was going to happen in the last 2 hours. I'd be a hypocrite if I said this was outright suspicious but earlier in the game I feel like those 2 hours are still worth while to go through.
This post stuck out to me from that same day as it just reads like false concern.
Meanwhile Splinter doesn't really have a lot that sticks out. I'm still working through his posts but I'm not seeing much.
Wary? I thought I was, like, your top scum?

Splinter can be revisited, though I still don't see why he played like he did yesterday as scum. It was there for the taking, could've just continued pushing my lynch with fewer numbers.
Instead he tried to solve, worked with Kyan in trying to prove his power which only benefitted Town, and hell even helped convince me that Kyan wasn't a scum by spelling out exactly what the voting situation would be with Kyan as scum.
If he is scum, congrats, he's got me. I just don't see that play as lylo scum.
Not really sure why you thought I meant how many majority votes you were on.
Day 1 - AB
We know he is Doctor, and at the time you seemed alright lynching a guy that wasn't even present.
Day 2 - Hammered CCS 2 hours before deadline, I lean town on this action when isolated.
Day 3 - isaac, we know as town.
Day 4 - No vote
Day 5 - Zeusy, town.
Day 6 - No vote
Day 7 - No vote, turbo. You weren't really for lynching Zipped.
