You do not understand the town motivation behind me asking you to explain a scum read which I, during my catchup had this to say about

I just want to say I am extremely not understanding the dann scum reads. It feels like a whole bunch of people just simultaneously said “DEEP WOLF” in one voice and then all of a sudden it became common wisdom somehow. It’s possible I’m missing something in the skim but I thought his entrance was fine and I think the slot he replaced was non-existent (and I do not think, as someone who has modded a fuck ton of games, that replacement is at all +scum equity

Are you joking? You're asserting that a player is trying to lurk out the pressure without ever explaining why there ought to be pressure in the first place. This is important for me sorting both dannflor AND you.

Like what? Are you serious?

[Thestatusquo]

My understanding is that it's a pain in the ass to do.

Why not just create a new account and ask for it to be made your new main?

Why are you talking about this instead of literally anything else

Because I don’t see much else worth poking rn
You didn’t respond to my comment to you before, I noted

You're right, because I didnt really know how to respond to you dismissing my points like that and I figured we'd get to it later.

[DeasVail]

all my scumreads keep pushing each other...

I’m not pushing anybody

[Nero Cain]

I’m not pushing anybody

prob why you are scum.

[Thestatusquo]

Because I am unsure.

i'm not sure why u want my opinion on it? i dont think the stuff u pointed out about her doing is particularly scummy, it reads like very minor things to me and she did a lot of odd fluff posting stuff in her last game as town too. i had her as town on day 1 and havent had reason to re-evaluate most of my reads yet.

Because I want peoples opinions on everything and that happened to be what had just come up?

2676 is a scum AI response because I asked Shea to redirect the conversation in real time and Shea repeated the old question in order to stall for more time.

It’s a point others have made and I’ve acknowledged already. You trying to dig it back up gives bad vibes.

ok baltar iso thoughts:
- maybe the easiest take here, but i don't think his interaction with datisi felt like partners to me? he felt a little like... worried. like he was kinda poking from a distance out of a sense of obligation but not really fully engaging. it didn't feel like they were on the same page or matching each other's energy
- irrel slot is believable as a partner here. nothing too bad tho
- same goes for firebringer slot
- i don't really see the marci read as clearing @scamper?
- the GL thing ehh i kinda am leaning town GL now, don't find the S/S take as compelling as i did originally
- i kinda get the feeling the way he interacted with the major wagons of the day means that one of them was on scum but im not really sure which. v helpful i know. he just felt slightly uncomfortable at times later in the day when he was sorting out which direction to go, like he needed to do some sort of action beyond what he would normally just do to get townread

I hard agree with Datisi town yeah

Leaning town on GL too because it felt like he was trying to stir up suspicion on GL by piggy-backing on my (likely incorrect) read.

[Nero Cain]

all my scumreads keep pushing each other...

I’m not pushing anybody

although...you started off the game by pushing town (me) and then you pushed GL (town?) you wound up voting conman (town) the only other vote in between was on Gamma. Just in general I feel like your "scumhunting" has been very limited and safe.

your 3 scumreads yesterday were gamma, con, and marci. So why aren't you pushing Gamma or Mari?

[humaneatingmonkey]

I hard agree with Datisi town yeah

why hard agree

Ordered into tiers and then tiers ordered by townieness. The people in the 2nd to bottom tier are mostly people who I want to poke more because I have not decided they're town yet and the people in the third from the top tier are people who I think are mostly town but I'm not willing to bet on it.

I think I want to start by poking the firebringer slot.

VOTE: something_smart

[marcistar]

guys help i like shea lets not pressure him

[fireisredsir]

last thoughts before thread lock - I kinda like VPB's reply to me there? assuming Con is scum, I'm prob still SRing Fire and Dan, but VPB might be town and I might be snowed by a scum elsewhere

this is not the reaction i had, would be interested in more explanation of why you like it

I guess I am thinking scum!VPB knowing scum!CMM would be doing a bit more agenda/manuevering off this CMM flip

whereas I made the point in 2173 that it felt like his first jump from CMM->GL was directly in response to me fighting with him, rather than something he premeditated or planned

and then again here I thought he may have been trying to set me up to look bad on CMM by asking me about why I was finding him town, but then he kinda just dropped it and didn't express much explicit suspicion in 2481.

ok so ive been thinking about this little interaction a good amount

and im p sure i now think GL is town off it

originally it set off alarm bells for me and just felt like a weird reaction to have. but the thing is, this was preflipping a scum CMM. CMM was town

and i think it's just really awkward to jump in with this kinda contrived townread on a partner that will immediately become moot once the flip comes through? i just have a hard time seeing scum GL do that

I clearly don't find your "acknowledgement" compelling and today you don't seem particularly interested in finding scum either.

[Nero Cain]

[Nero Cain]

What made you stop thinking Gamma was scum?

[Thestatusquo]

Savage

I don't think this was an insult so much as it was an acknowledgement that my progression on her felt genuine? But maybe thats hard to see from the middle of a tunnel.

[Thestatusquo]

But maybe I shouldn't expect too much from someone who "sees no motivation for a town player to ask them why they scum read someone"

[Thestatusquo]

2676 is a scum AI response because I asked Shea to redirect the conversation in real time and Shea repeated the old question in order to stall for more time.

literally what?

[DeasVail]

I hard agree with Datisi town yeah

why hard agree

They would have been having a lot more fun with each other as scum imo
