Just a heads up that I'm counting it, but yeah. If you want me to miss your vote entirely, with no automatic vote count script, a black vote in a sea of black text posts is a good way to hide it.
Bold, red, use "vote" or "unvote" plz.

More of a tone read. Haven't had much of an opinion either way on you specifically but I'm a fan of you being around.
What was a joke vote for Raith I cannot support with any evidence. He seems rather quiet, but I don't know if that is how he plays on D1, so he gets a pass for now. With what little I have seen from him, I give hime a slight wolf lean.
Both Seireikhaan and Montmorency feel like as good of targets as any, so I'm going to tie it up for the now.
Vote: Montmorency
Cuthillius 18:40 05-22-2017
what do you think is scummy about monty/khaan
in your own words please
Town read on Cuthilius for this, defusing a potential conflict.

You kept going back to it, but on second thought I guess that could just be a natural extension of people responding to you and you furthering the conversation, which is stupid now that I look back on it.
Generally when people/myself say "not aligned" that strictly refers to "they're not mafia together".
I feel like half of the interactions people have been making with me/half the case on me has come down to pedantics, which is a dumb reason to lynch someone but then again I suppose I'm overdue to eat rope so que sera sera. Will try to put down some sick reads in the meantime.
(My bold). That second thought really should have been thought before making your initial post, IMO...
Still, you're doing some fine backpedalling off a bad case here if you're scum. I think scum would normally tend to be more confrontational and/or defensive in this situation.
Also, I think the statement
Generally when people/myself say "not aligned" that strictly refers to "they're not mafia together" is just plain wrong, and not seeing/admitting that shows a townish lack of self-consciousness.
This is a villager posting:
I like the post in general and I especially like how he has too many town reads and admits it. Creative play if scum.

This...is disappointingly shallow itself. I think we've all well established that d1 is a c***shoot and there's little to work with, now do you have anything to add? What do you think of the others that talked?
Agreed.

Not a bad vote. I've misread and mislynched Jabbz a lot though, and was hoping to avoid that in this game. He's also maybe the player here who knows me the best, so I was secretly hoping we could form a town block. Doesn't look likely at this point. Anyway I think he's a fine lynch, don't take my misgivings as a defense of him, but I will try to look elsewhere for now.

I don't see it. Elaborate? Are you feeling under attack by the way?
As for Seireikhaan, Logic already mentioned his slightly forced vote on me, and Viper nicely sums him up as "Null, might be promising. He's made two serious posts so far, mostly talking about play style and declaring he's going to be keeping his thoughts to himself.".
I've been toying with the idea of suggesting a straight policy lynch of a lurker today because I don't think we have that many reads to go on, and too many lurkers in general on this site. I would have liked to punish the lurker meta.
And then GH makes a case on Seireikhaan, so clearing GH is another possible benefit here.
So that's why I'm voting Seireikhaan currently.
I'll do a list next, but off the top of my head Choxorn and Montmorency also seem like decent lynch candidates. (And Jabbz.)
Fake edit: But first I have to deal with my kids.
Cuthillius 18:49 05-22-2017
that's a good post
you're town

This is not the response I expected, and I like it for that.
Response tone aside however, I don't see my analysis as shallow, but rather piecing together the limited information on someone who makes my spidey senses tingle. I admit out the gate it's a questionable conclusion, but trying to dismiss the entire set as shallow is kind of weak.
All told though, nice to see you've found your center here, I imagine you will find calm games more entertaining.
Mod, I cut a "]" off that last post at the end of the first line. Would you edit it back in?

In my defense, everything I've been doing in game has been slapped together in a minimum amount of time. As I stated early I don't have much time for d1. Final inspection of my house is Tuesday at 2pm though, so after that I'm good. I promise to do better in the future :)
Honestly the only real argument I've made so far was about poking a bear to see his response, so I could see how I look less than stellar. Give it time though please.

I'm liking you so far novice, you seem engaged. With your brother being gone however, I'm not sure if things are the same or different when it comes to reading you, as the interaction between the two of you often gives some information. Time will tell I suppose.
As above, give me some time before you write me off. I've been lynched day 1 the last two games I played in a row. Not adding a third would be kind of nice :p

Cuthillius 19:07 05-22-2017
what do you think of monty/khaan wagons: reasoning on them, who's voting them
who do you most want to lynch today
I don't think any day one arguments have much in the way of merit except for on rare occasions where someone slips and does something horribly obvious. Today is not one of those days. I think those arguments as a whole are no more valid or crappy than others. Give what I've seen of their evolution I don't think it is likely that scum are jumping on either, but rather see that one or the other is likely to go down and are staying out of it. This makes me inclined to feel they are both bad lynches, but then again, my entire problem with d1 lynches and reads is that there isn't enough information, so the above is about as useless as anything else.
As to who I want to lynch, I'm pretty much apathetic in that department. I poked Severing to get a response, and didn't get the response I expected. Whether that confirms or contradicts my reading of the individual is yet to be seen, and no I don't care to share that reading at this time. Ask me again tomorrow about this kind of stuff and I'll likely have some different info, but for now that is what I have.

And GH never set off your "spidey senses"?
Do you really think I was ever off my center?

The merit of d1 arguments (and a number of "meaningless" arguments in general) is that they increase the chance that someone slips. [Yes/No]?
the sirie votes are stupid
First I'd like to apologize for not having been around more today. It's not going to be one of my most active days game wise (seeing as how Manasi and Cuth both have noted that).
I'm going to go through what's new, and then I'll place my vote and probably go to bed if nobody has any immediate questions.

He was defending or rather arguing that my commenting on D1 play (what Viper said I shouldn't do since the question wasn't for me) was completely innocent and had no influence on your response. When I read it it looked like a defense of what I did. And no, I don't feel under attack.
That being said, I didn't like
Vote: GH 's reason for suspecting Khaan. It's very reachy IMO.

This goes back to March 2016. Does not compute.
couldn't he have been playing mafia in other games
and by games i mean sites

That would have been a proper disposable vote. Too late now though.
yes and yes
SeveringViper: By my count, khaan's played with everybody here (however briefly in some instances) except Champ. We'll throw Manasi and Logic in there too I guess because French Rev was a factional game and doesn't really fit in. Not really enough to get self-conscious about IMO.
novice: Re: your section of me in your longer post above, I was going to argue that your conclusion w/r/t your read of me is correct, but I feel like your reasons for reading me as such are bad, so I'm not sure what to do with you at the moment? but then I realized that most of the bones I had to pick with it were playstyle differences and thus not actual bad arguments.
Champ: As mentioned in a different post, khaan doesn't play games on other sites.
Another thing I want to make note of is in Champ's catchup just a few posts above this one, he jumps from my case on khaan (made earlier this morning US time) to commenting about my "pedantics" line (made last night US time), which strikes me as a bit unnatural way of catching up with the thread.
