Like really, what kind of answer are you expecting other than "How the fuck am I supposed to know?"In post 124, midwaybear wrote:

Scumminess isn't some objective quality, like hardness or height. I know scummy when I see it. Granted, I do have a warped perception of any game because I am a vote magnet, but still.Show"I'm sorry that you put asbestos in your coffee."

You could say something like that.
Your original answer was mostly a nonanswer. Sure town and scum both have incentive to vote you, but as you said, there sometimes is that intuition that allows you to see the difference. Simply leaving things at "yeah could be town or scum pushing me" didn't seem like much of an answer to me, so I was curious to how you scumhunt.-

Actually scratch the followup part, this followup is scummy as fuck.In post 103, staypositivefriend wrote:
his opening posts felt aimless/uncomfortable to me - posts like #65 felt like jake was more concerned w/positioning himself as someone who fit in with the thread than he was with approaching the game from a solving mindset. i was mostly interested in seeing if i could concentrate a bunch of momentum around himIn post 88, midwaybear wrote:

If you want to have 103 count as followup, then go ahead and throwe it over here.In post 130, staypositivefriend wrote:

i don't see this exchange being constructive past this point, so i'm withdrawing from it for now
