The case you’re making right now about that being a pro-town response proves the point that there is scum motivation behind that.

this goes back to what i said earlier, what is scum more likely to do? play traditionally townie or do a weird strategy that appears scummy, is guaranteed to get more attention towards them, and hinges on the fact that someone goes "hold on, it doesn't make sense for scum to do this..."

like banking on that as scum is extremely risky and doesn't make sense

[Scorpious]

Using the KISS method and narrowing it down . I would favor an ari launch over a Wu launch.

[fua]

Because you already chainsaw defended her and voted HEM before?

Can you elaborate on how you narrowed that down please?

[Datisi]

so why does scum!her do that?

so u chainsaw defend her

"hey ari, i see you're under pressure... can you act scummy and contrarian so that you get more attention your way, and then i'm gonna drop in and say how it doesn't make sense for scum!you to act like that! i am guaranteed to manage to change everyone's mind and it doesn't tie us together at all!"

yep, checks out

[Scorpious]

Chainsaw defended?

[fua]

It means arguing a case for a player instead of them arguing themselves.

Fire did this with the HEM vote as well.

[Nero Cain]

never accused you of being scum together. Just that you are attacking me for attacking Ari.

[Scorpious]

Like “white knighting?”

[fua]

Yeah, pretty much.

[Nero Cain]

no, chainsaw defense is when you attack the players attacker

[MathBlade]

so why does scum!her do that?

so u chainsaw defend her

"hey ari, i see you're under pressure... can you act scummy and contrarian so that you get more attention your way, and then i'm gonna drop in and say how it doesn't make sense for scum!you to act like that! i am guaranteed to manage to change everyone's mind and it doesn't tie us together at all!"

yep, checks out

It’s more like
“Hey Ari you’re under pressure can you destroy this wagon?”
“Sure I will paint Math as someone unworthy of being listened to”

[Datisi]

never accused you of being scum together. Just that you are attacking me for attacking Ari.

chainsaw defending = scum attacking someone who's pushing their buddy

[Datisi]

math, over half the game has already painted you like that...

[Nero Cain]

although it IS possible that you and Ari would think that Nero is the easiest elim on the Ari wagon

[MathBlade]

math, over half the game has already painted you like that...

You get my point then.
She attacked me, locktown as an escape route versus giving a read or being useful

The above is a sample of what could have been the answer
Versus what you are presenting

[Datisi]

i mean, @nero your statement then still doesn't make sense, because again, ari would have to magically know that i would be the person to conclude "hey, this doesn't make sense from scum" (and frankly not even i myself can predict my own behaviour that well), and she'd have to be hoping that my arguing is gonna be loud enough to overturn most of the game

which does not make sense

[Datisi]

as an escape route. that landed her into more pressure.

[Nero Cain]

ari doesn't need to predict anything

[MathBlade]

as an escape route. that landed her into more pressure.

Yeah. Just because she thought it would work doesn’t mean it would.

[Nero Cain]

she voted Scorp for ???? reason. You attacking me for voting Ari has shit all to do with her.

[Frogsterking]

she voted Scorp for ???? reason. You attacking me for voting Ari has shit all to do with her.

Yeah I have to say I think Nero is probably town this game

[Datisi]

she voted Scorp for ???? reason. You attacking me for voting Ari has shit all to do with her.

you're right, it has to do with you changing your read from town to scum for a bad reason on a player that started picking up steam

pedit: why

[Datisi]

as an escape route. that landed her into more pressure.

Yeah. Just because she thought it would work doesn’t mean it would.

not doing what the conftown player tells you to do and instead being contrarian to them lands you into pressure? wow what a surprise, i'm sure she'd had no idea that would be the end result

[MathBlade]

she voted Scorp for ???? reason. You attacking me for voting Ari has shit all to do with her.

Yeah I have to say I think Nero is probably town this game

I agree. Nero is probably town.
