I'm not going to change my vote

What does YMMV mean?
I don't speak this language.

Your Mileage May Vary. I know I'm clean and pure as the wind-driven snow, but I may look super scummy to everyone else.

What's "INGTCMV"?

While we are on the acronym subject... WIFOM?

actually if you go by where in the formation of a bandwagon players vote, the most scummy spots are 3 and 4. the reason this doesn't work out all that well is that time zones drive the vote order in ratz games. it's more telling in untimed games than in timed games.

Oh and the fact that scum know not to be third or fourth .

sometimes they just can't help themselves. There's one vote on someone, and they sit and think "should I?" and by the time they vote, one or two players got in ahead of them. It's part of a constellation of scum behaviors that are driven by knowlege and concern about whether they look town.

wine in front of me, watch the princess bride sometime.

^^I guess what I'm saying is that one its own being in position 3 or 4 is meaningless. If it happens several times in a game and other scummy behaviors are present, then it's a flag.

Another thing I remember reading about scum tells in a Mafia FAQ is to look at who doesn't get voted for. These are cumulative, so if you got voted for on Day 1 but not Day 2 I'm leaving you off the list.

Day 1 -- Morticia, Denny (RIP), DP (RIP), Ghat, ScienceRob, irre, UT, Oblivion, me
Day 2 (cumulative) -- Morticia, Magicziggy**, irre, Oblivion

** Gall, the player MZ kindly filled in for, did get a vote on Day 1. It's up to you if that counts or not.

Finally, this may all fly out the window since smart scum probably would try to attract a vote or two to not look suspicious.

I prefer to vote for people that stay in the shadows until it looks like they might be lynched and then rush to make lots of posts trying too hard to look town .

[Uselesstwit]

I prefer that to people just sitting around waiting to die.

I genuinely try and attract votes by being very gung ho.
Have you noticed?

I'm very bad at this. Are people are scared of voting for me.
A few have identified me on their potential scum lists.
I should be an easy target for scum to place a vote.
Do it.

What are you playing at MZ? This pings hard as a ballsy scum move. It seems like you are trying to imply that anyone who puts a vote on you from now on is scum. All this kind of crap achieves is sowing WIFOM seeds

Whatever. No one will vote me. Go for it.
