I feel like you could just read those few missing pages instead of reading what people are posting now. Like you read the whole Delta case on Dragon instead of reading pg 12. This kinda goes into what I was saying earlier about how I wouldn't be able to play this way. I can't try to solve a puzzle when I'm missing key pieces. The fact that you are trying to do this makes me think you're not
actually
trying to do real solving here, instead you just want to look like you're doing stuff. People pointed out you even discredited the Bella slip before even reading it too

I'm getting bad vibes with the way you're approaching the game and I'm comfortable moving my vote here for now

I mean, I’m reading a post or two at a time from recent pages whilst looking after my twins, I’ve been very clear that I’m keeping up to date with recent posts (namely so that I don’t have to add on a bunch more pages in catch up) and when I have a longer time period then I’ll dedicate it to catching up on the remaining pages I’m missing

Voting me because I chose to read 2-3 posts on a recent page rather than going back to read a whole page is wild

Like seriously wtf that’s pissed me right off
How dare you tell me how to spend my time when I’m juggling this and looking after my kids

Like get the fuck outta here

You’ve been making shitty takes on my post since I started catching up, most of the time misreading or missing what I’ve actually said. Vote me for any of those shitty takes, I don’t really care, but don’t you dare tell me I should have read 4 pages of content while I’m sat with my kids

While I find Aurorus' way of catching up and getting into the game objectively odd, I don't think it's inherently scum in and of itself, for me it's I'd say it's mostly NAI. His drawing of conclusions over the PT slip without reading any context was bad, but I also liked Vox's explanation for it which felt genuinely apologetic, at least to me, so it's not weighing me down all that much.

I'm voting for you because I think the way you are approaching the game is scummy. It's not just one or two instances. You've been in a constant state of catching up for like 2 days now but instead of just using some of that time to read the game you are trying really hard to seem present. I think that type of catch up is likely to come from a wolf but I could be wrong

Vox's reaction seems excessive but genuine? I definitely wasn't a big fan of the AV vote by Black but based on my reads on the two I think this is TvT violence.

@Black
, AV aside, maybe I missed this in my skimming of your posts but what's your stance on Bella? I think you had her as a scum lean but why is AV/Patch higher on your priority than her?

I've liked a lot of Bella's content since the slip. I'm not sure if I TR her but my initial SR over her Dragon stance page 1 has kinda dissolved away, and I haven't seen much scummy stuff from her since

Bella seems like a good wagon for scum to sit on. It's called limbait I think? That's what she seems like to me

I'm not vibing with this overreaction and AtE by AV. Also I'm kinda sick of playing in games where people blow up and get so upset over nothing. Like no one is telling you to ignore your kids to play Mafia my guy. Maybe stop live posting for 10 seconds and go catch yourself up on the 1/3 of the game you haven't even read

However: delta you say dragon is artificially on the black wagon and yet you yourself pointed out how it made more sense for dragon to be voting black…which is it?
Where did I do that? I don't recall saying it makes more sense for Dragon to be voting Black.

I think the above interaction between Black and AV crosses over into a place (Out of Game) that I don't really want to go - I think it's NAI.
Refer to me as 'Delta' or 'Tom'. Cheers! |

Can you point to any posts she's made that is making you TR her? Sounds like your read might've evolved a fair bit since #470?

Does the 2nd quote imply you think I'm scum, because I honestly might be the only person voting her atm. Idk if I even entirely agree with the assessment that she is "limbait" anyway. That'd only be true if people still consider the "PT slip" of interest but I feel like basically the whole game has moved on from that.

As confusing as av's catch up is, it's better than not doing it *cough* happy *cough" and also doesn't vibe with his meta (sorry) from the last two scum newbie games, where he aggressively pushed an agenda.

Not really off the top of my head, and I'm not sure if I TR her quite yet. I would say my updated version of #470 would have her as null. Maybe with a slight townlean I suppose

I like the way she has been interacting with the thread. It feels like she's asking questions and trying to solve by pointing out things she doesn't like and chiming in on things

Re: your 2nd question, I still TR you pretty heavily. I'm not sure if you're the only one voting Bella but I'm kinda referencing the Bella push in general. I think there are a couple others that have said they would be ok voting Bella but now I can't think of who they are

I saw you post about why you think she's scummy and I can't say that I agree with you

Yeah that's fair

I still think the approach is kinda scummy but I don't think a wolf just bites my head off for suggesting that. It's almost too big of an overreaction looking back at it

UNVOTE:

The meta argument is also interesting, ty for that insight

Last game he counter claimed a pr, manages to coral town on town who'd made a mistake (they looked like they were pr hunting, were obv town), counter claimed a guilty, got the pr elimed, and then finally got elimed, having made it to day three.

Slight possibility he doesn't want to pull that level of obvs!scum straight away again with the same people, but ....

think the players that piled on (no can remember) would be scummier
btw which responses are you talking about, state post number please?

Regarding AV. I've just been sitting here thinking about the interaction. My SR definitely wasn't super strong and was mostly based on things I wouldn't do as town, but I'm glad I voted because I think AV's reaction kinda pulled me over to thinking he's probably town now. I've seen scum try to pull this off but idk, this felt more genuine to me
