> [@amrussell](#): > > Clearly, this comes after \*\*Peeker’s \*\*slip/confession. Later on, \*\*brewha \*\*follows up his giant WTF with a vote: > The key point here is that there isn’t an immediate switch of votes. \*\*brewha \*\*first unvotes \*\*Cookies \*\*while expressing suspicion of peeker, but only votes for peeker later on (after \*\*Nanook \*\*has made the first vote). I don’t like the unvote. When \*\*brewha \*\*voted **Cookies** , he put her joint leader with dotchan on 2 votes. When he unvoted, \*\*dotchan \*\*was on 4 and \*\*Hawkeyeop \*\*was on 3, and no-one else was following on **Cookies**. It smacks of someone abandoning an unpopular candidate. The hesitation in voting peeker also seems a bit odd. At first he was unsure if \*\*peeker \*\*was a Vig or SK - after \*\*Nanook \*\*voted, he jumped in. It looks like someone waiting for a bit of cover for a possible anti-town vote. I’ve got pretty huge problems with this. AMRussell, you’ve got a distinct tendency to vilify a person for one behavior, then turn around and smudge someone with the exact opposite accusation. Earlier, you made an accusation that someone voted too hastily. Now, you’re accusing brewha based on being too cautious to vote? I don’t think your analysis of the timing here holds any water at all. Enough time passed between his unvote for Cookies and his vote for Peeker that I’m perfectly willing to believe that he re-read and decided that a vote was in order. I’d normally consider is scummier to hop immediately from wagon to wagon. > [@](#): > > This is pure scum thinking. Not only is brewha acting like there are only two candidates, he’s also betraying a desire to align with town. Being dead hadn’t made Hawkeye right. This willingness to stop thinking and side with the known town player shows more concern with looking good than finding scum. This is totally unwarranted. Nothing brewha said indicates that he’s planning to stop thinking, only that he’s prepared to give weight to the opinions of known town. Which makes sense, because then you can deal with their logic without having to stress about motivation. The biggest problem I have with brewha as mafia is that he’d have to have been willing to bus macey day one. That was a wagon that started strong and never let up. It’s not impossible, of course, but I’m extending him some townie cred for it. I’d need to see something an order of magnitude stronger than what you’ve got. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/mafia-evil-dead-day-night-five/480855)._
