Also, malakim's misinterpretation of context, intentional baddie move or innocent Civ mistake?
Not certain.
Depends on how good malakim is at scumhunting. Or, moreso, how much he/she thinks like I do.

I could see it either way.
Scum mindset is looking for mistakes. So any apparent mistake, like contradicting yourself, is a gold mine for suspicion. But some town people hunt like that as well.
Malakim is a he, just to clarify.
Admittedly when I first saw that post I just saw the initial 'clearing' part and didn't take the context into account.
Anyway, hope I'm doing this right here. First rainbow list!

Explanations!
* I like how Speed has been posting. He seems pretty consistent, theorizing (even if the theory is wrong, as I am not connected to Elohcin, but I can see how it looks that way) and providing insight.
* MovingPicture07 and Long Con I'm pretty solid on right now as well after re-reading that whole exchange they had. Definitely feels like townies chasing each other around D1 to me. Plus I'm pretty sure if MP was scum he'd take advantage of my laziness and run me up the flagpole.
* Sloonei has been putting pressure on me as the new guy, so I respect that.
* Dunya I'm still a bit peeved at the stealth vote after she decried stealth voting, but I think that was an honest mistake. Still, a bit weird to do that.
* Diiny I honestly haven't gotten a good feel for yet, so I just threw him in the leaning town for now.
* JJJ and Wilgy I'm throwing in slight mafia as they... just haven't said anything. I mean, JJJ did some posting D1 but then he said he needed to be replaced, so I'm just a little uncertain of that. I know Realms the mafia can submit actions for missing players, is that the case here?
* DF, you have a great avatar (go Bifur!) but it just bothers me that your first real move this game was tossing a vote onto Dom. Now, admittedly, Dom was acting really fishy going into D2, so it could be an innocent move... or it could be a mafia 'hey a townie is under pressure let's slip the iocaine powder in their drink' move too.
* Nin... er, njin... er, okay, I see why you say "Blooper" now. Anyway, I think she should be participating more, but the fact that Elohcin is the one bringing a lot of pressure onto her is giving me some pause. Putting her in the slightly fishy category.
* Simon, I'm still not a fan of. He hasn't been on that much, and I understand the RL considerations. Even so, it just strikes me that he could be coasting a little.
* Elohcin, I think, is my primary candidate for scumminess. I don't like her dedication to self-preservation. I mean, if I'm reading the rules correctly, specifically rule #4?

4) All players on the side of the winning faction will win.
I'm taking that to mean that the all the players of the winning faction, alive OR dead, will win. Correct me if I'm wrong, but that how it sounds to me. I mean, yes, it does suck that you aren't playing anymore, but when you say things like this:

Well...less thank 10 minutes left and I am ties with dom. Voting him.
I'm not only trying to save myself but I think he may be bad.
(Emphasis mine.) Well, it just feels a bit odd to me, particularly when combined with her proactively saying that JoH was a frame job. It reminded me of a time when I had a vendetta against a player on HCRealms, and I was scum and he was town in that game. So I murdered him N1 and then protested loudly D2 that "OBVIOUSLY I wouldn't kill him N1 because then I'm the prime suspect! Geez, give me some credit!*"
Her self-preservation drive seems a bit too pronounced for a townie. Or maybe I'm just too much of a socialist. Anyway, that's where I stand right now. I'm sure that'll change.
* For the record, it worked.
