My scum senses are tingling! This right here is a classic indicator of scum activity. I'm sorry to say that I've posted more or less the exact same thing in games where I was scum. "Good job guys, we killed some baddies, I'll contribute in a bit!" seems like a fairly innocent post to the person who's scum, but to someone familiar with the tactic, it's a giant flashing neon sign in the night sky.
##VOTE: Reinforce
Way to be selective, TT.
For reference, here's the entire post from me. It has two paragraphs, you know, and not one, as TT is implying.
Oh, wow, a lot has happened. But boy are we lucky, two wolves down!
Tired out from a 12-hour work shift, I'll post my thoughts and/or answer questions tomorrow.
Because obviously I want to hold back on contributing, right? It couldn't possibly be that I actually do want to contribute and analyze posts but then I was practically crawling on the way back from work exhausted and thus couldn't muster more than 2 paragraphs of a post, the 2nd one with a promise to contribute when I got back, like now, right? Right?
But that's okay, I won't hold it against you to understand my work exhaustion, as that's a real life issue, and I signed up to play this game.
Now, on to the game:
I only have one, simple rebuttal to your reason for voting me. And what do you know, you yourself already stated it.
Let me bold it:

You admit that it's YOUR scum meta.
Why would you apply YOUR scum meta to me? Do we have the exact same playstyle? Exact same thought process? And also, is that a general thing that's applicable to anybody, and thus when you think they've stated something similar it can be used to call them scummy? I'd understand if that was meta reasoning that uses MY playstyle in previous WW games, like what had been said about PMJ. But it's not, and you said as much. So why should I come out as scummy for a meta reason that is YOURS?
Call it defensive or whatever, but I've rarely, perhaps never, played a Pokebeach game where two wolves were dead already by Day 2, and I thought that extreme luck had to be involved for such a thing to happen, and thus had a first-impression statement. That's all there is to it.
Here are some thoughts on the current events:
-@simsands If you're looking for a Dragon Pokemon, perhaps it is possible to be Mega Sceptile as Grass/Dragon?
-@TwistedTurtwig There isn't really any character that comes to mind to be connected to Ralts besides Wally and Ralts-Gallade. ... Well, there's manga-version Brendan/Ruby who does actually have a Ralts/Kirlia, but Celever's calling him/himself Brendan, so maybe he's the game version and can't be it. Aside from the obvious Tate/Liza, your only character possibility for who could own a Ralts would be an original character Ranger. Analyzing your ability's wording from all angles, how sure are you that it implies there's another Ralts out there? Or could it be that the "stated" Ralts you say is in your ability actually refers to your own Ralts instead? (Is the wording really strange?)
