Sure, once I start playing, and figure out I actually like this game, people stop playing… Oh, **Tom Scudd** , do you mind if I ask why you (or anyone else) thought I was scummy? I was playing pro-town the whole way, wouldn’t even know how to play Scum if I was… So, what did I do that seemed scummy? ---

Don’t worry, there will be another game here soon if I have to run it myself. Though you really don’t want me to do that. _cough_ ---

Bring Your Own Role seemed to work well on Giraffe. But I’d rather play than mod ---

I was playing pro-town the whole way, wouldn’t even know how to play Scum if I was… So, what did I do that seemed scummy? Partially it was stuff Zeriel had said; he was one of the people pushing early against a unique vanilla claim, and I was starting to wonder if some of them were Scum. (One of them (Normal) was). Also, your decision to focus on the five who voted for Glowacks in your first vote post read to me a bit as playing it safe. (Pleo, btw, was more suspicious to me than Ed precisely for playing-it-safe reasons.) ---

Apropos of nothing, I have seen that tactic a lot lately from scum: “this bandwagon must have scum on it, now let me analyze all of them (and make the wrong choices)”. Storyteller in the last Idlemafia game, Pleonast here – and I was heading that way myself the last time I was scum on Giraffe (and got in trouble for it). Town do it, too, but usually in a more organic way. ---

I have time to moderate, but certainly not enough time to play. ---
