distancing is when one scum does something to try to appear un-aligned with their teammate. bozo is theorizing that because the reasoning for someone's vote was weak they could be teamed.Rumi Tobari wrote: ↑Sat Sep 17, 2022 11:27 pmYou keep using that term, what's distancing?

Bussing? I feel like people kept using the term last game and I kept thinking like "wait, aren't they confirmed not the bus driver?" and just got more and more confused, I take it bussing means something else?bozotheclown wrote: ↑Sat Sep 17, 2022 11:34 pmThat is essentially correct, voting or scum reading mafia teammates to distance yourself from them. Similar to bussing, but I take bussing as a willingness to vote off a mafia teammate for future town credit.Rumi Tobari wrote: ↑Sat Sep 17, 2022 11:27 pmYou keep using that term, what's distancing?

With a pyxxy/RHK/Bonatogether/damo mafia team, all D2 votes in the last 5 hours of D2 would be on town, which would explain pyxxy, RHK, and damo ending off the wagons, especially with pyxxy and RHK leaving incriminating evidence behind D1.

Bussing is short for "throwing someone under the bus", as in doing it to a mafia teammate.Rumi Tobari wrote: ↑Sat Sep 17, 2022 11:36 pmBussing?

Re: M76 - Dungeons and Dragons - Game Thread [HIDDEN]
RHK seems to be persuaded by wolfu's town read of damo, but still uses his supposed scum read of damo for this:DemonRHK wrote: ↑Wed Sep 14, 2022 7:18 pmThis strikes a chord with me. I did some shit like this a while back and nearly swung for it.wolfu wrote: ↑Wed Sep 14, 2022 7:12 pmpeople have informed me repeatedly he does the survey stuff as either alignment and so it has made me more cautious with my read of him, additionally i look around the game and see more people that are towntelling than not and it moves him down in my estimation given i've only seen him do the survey (and the points about it being a potential time waster kind of stick in my mind)
no, that's not how this worksBonatogether wrote: ↑Wed Sep 14, 2022 6:58 pmto agree with brainbomb's assessment of his play as each alignment, you necessarily have to know damo's alignment
brainbomb said damo as town is annoying and hunts in (what he perceives as) antitown ways
at that time as i'm discussing these reads damo comse in with some posts about how the survey will be illuminating but he's not going to explain why yet and we need to force people to participate
he's talking like he's doing a magic trick and doesn't want to reveal the surprise to the audience just yet
which seems to me way more like a town who is self-absorbed with some idea they totally think is great even though i am dubious of its usefulness

Re: M76 - Dungeons and Dragons - Game Thread [HIDDEN]
So you’re going to disregard three people who bailed and m the Worc wagon last minute?
And as far as ending off wagon D2? We are in full swing the subs mode! I try to make a case and push a wagon and get called a 4vhan user, teenager, and rabid dog through gnashing of teeth and over the end of noses.
Call me an asshole I f you want, but at least I’m honest about what I am.

Swing the subs doesn't really make as much sense in this context given that the player in question hadn't even been online since a week before the game started.
Feel free to correct me on this one if I'm wrong.

Maybe they look more suspicious if Bonatogether turns out to be town, but I am OK disregarding their votes for now.DemonRHK wrote: ↑Sun Sep 18, 2022 12:23 amSo you’re going to disregard three people who bailed and m the Worc wagon last minute?

You were on near EOD D2 and had the opportunity to make a choice between me and Tom, but chose not to. Pushing Ike for being a sub could wait until D3.

That is a good point in my opinion, it makes RHK's push to DK Ike because CrimsonFox never showed up look more suspicious.Rumi Tobari wrote: ↑Sun Sep 18, 2022 12:35 amSwing the subs doesn't really make as much sense in this context given that the player in question hadn't even been online since a week before the game started.

So fine, I'm going to coast on SwingTheSubs. Go ahead and say what you'd like about gamerbler's fallacy. Scum is more likely to sub in my experience.

Re: M76 - Dungeons and Dragons - Game Thread [HIDDEN]
Wanna run me up? Be my fucking guest. I'm not going to waste one of our valuable subs on me so I'm going to be over on Ike Island. We have volleyball, blackjack, and hookers. (OMG WOLF ANOTHER POP CULTURE REFERENCE HOW DARE I) Shit send Darg over. Waste of his ability when he could hunt scum though.
I tried to make a case. I pointed out behavior that is gonna fuckin sink us. But I'll just put the helmet on and go back to my nuggies and legos. That's your take right?
Get the fuck outta here.

Half the game had you townlean despite that you did some really weird flipflops or points I found contradictory. I couldn't tell if this was normal and I wanted more information, like I even asked rdr and got no response. And then people looked to me like I had it.

And nothing you ever said or opined about wolfu felt like you were really committing to anything or trying to convince us why we should think he was scum. You were gone for most of the day. Bona had a more convincing argument for wolfu than you ever did.

As far as wolf? PR hunting at night and encourgaging CCs into the line of fire are considered scummy in some realm. Sorry I meet your Mensa standard Xanatos (OMG MORE INTERNET POP CULTURE REFRENSES SOMEONE STOP THIS MAD MAN)

And okay, you did take a day off. I didn't comprehend "reset day" as "mental health day". Maybe I'm just being overly optimistic about the community, but I doubt anyone would have faulted you if you said "I'm getting really agitated and need a mental health day"
I apologize for not understanding "reset day" the way you intended it. I was wrong. I'm sorry.
