And **Brewha** : you never unvoted **Nanook** , so your vote for amrussell doesn’t count.

And for the **amrussell** voters who partly based it of my earlier list, I made another one assuming scum didn’t protect **MHaye** Day Six, it’s [here](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=10728464&postcount=124), just before **Story** posted Day Seven.  
I’ve only reread the amrussell/JSexton post from last Day/Night (and the posts quoted). I haven’t really found a crack in amrussells case, though JSexton made another defense post.

When I said it would be good to analyze those that interacted with bufftabby and macey (and those that didn’t), I’m not saying that both of those actions are automatically scum tells. All I was saying is that it’s easy to get caught up in doing a PBPA and thinking that’s all there is to it. Context is important. For example, say a player is on a “lynch the lurker” hunt, and calls out two of the three lowest posters. If it later turns out that the the missing player is scum, well, maybe that’s a good indicator that the lurker hunter is also scum, due to the failure to call the scum lurker out. That’s what I was referring to, because it’s not something that would be apparent from just searching someone’s posts.

What does PBPA for? Point Based Player Analysis?

A point related to this quote **JSexton** didn’t clarify which amrussell mentioned: JSexton suggested a **macey** voter analysis, but didn’t do it himself and **Hawkeyeop** was already busy doing it.  
However, [the full post](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=10624260&postcount=36) does indicate he hadn’t read up completely yet.
