I guess it's just my experience and philosophy. Scum will obviously be scattered about, but I think it's easiest to go for the low hanging fruit. And my hypothesis is that 1-2 scum will be among those who were searching for ways off the Flum wagon, but weren't pushing too hard. Just softing that they'd be willing to move off, so they could back up a move if it becomes necessary later.kgray wrote: ↑Thu Jan 20, 2022 2:08 pmngl I didn't read your wall post super closely so maybe you explained it there (i'll go back to it at some point) but I don't understand why scum would be trying to jump around if town!Flum is massively ahead of everyone else. wouldn't scum want him dead?goldfinger0303 wrote: ↑Thu Jan 20, 2022 4:20 amLate, I realize phase has passed but I'm reading from where I left off.BusinessLamp wrote: ↑Wed Jan 19, 2022 8:45 pm
How does the new knowledge of Bob being the main counter wagon change your analysis
Fundamentally it doesn't change anything. By the time Bob was the leading counter-wagon, the votes on Flum were massively ahead of everyone else. Scum would still been looking to jump around.

Re: M72 - “Echoes of Evelyn” - Game Thread [HIDDEN]
Frankly, you post too much and maybe it didn't stand out to me in my review of D1. What stood out most was your interactions with Durga. I will reread though.kgray wrote: ↑Thu Jan 20, 2022 2:10 pmHow come you don't scumread me more if these things bothered you about HR? Pretty sure I did all of that also.goldfinger0303 wrote: ↑Thu Jan 20, 2022 5:01 amAt risk of inflating HR's ego, I'm going to make another post about him.
While my hypothesis of town being the lead wagons EOD1 fit with a scumread of HR, my scumread is not dependent upon that hypothesis. Word for word, I found him scummy for these reasons 1) HR was very indecisive on how he felt about Flum. Constantly hedged his statements. 2) He also deflected heat from damo, Bob and Donny towards the end of the day as people were feeling out possibilities for other wagons. He was open for rdrivera though, who I find to be pretty towny thus far.

I do get where not relating as someone new.BusinessLamp wrote: ↑Thu Jan 20, 2022 5:24 pmChaqa, rdr, and others overall, please know when you base your entire read on someone on their meta it does absolutely nothing for me and feels extremely weak without specific citations.

As new guy tho it’s kind of frustrating to have a whole read be “idk he’s acting different than [vague scum games], I think he’s fine.” which can also be waved away later as “huh, guess he tried something new.”
Blamp, do you feel there are any meta reads that feel scummy to you?

Re: M72 - “Echoes of Evelyn” - Game Thread [HIDDEN]
Agree. I haven't played enough to really know people's meta, but a few memories do stick out to me and sway my opinions. Like I remember being scum in a game with damo cop, and damo was an absolute hound, leading town discussions and just being razor sharp.rdrivera2005 wrote: ↑Thu Jan 20, 2022 6:01 pmAgree with you but it´s hard to not use meta with people you have played a lot of games and have a clear meta to my eyes. I try to not use only meta to build a case against someone, but to have someone as town is inevitable sometimes.BusinessLamp wrote: ↑Thu Jan 20, 2022 5:24 pmChaqa, rdr, and others overall, please know when you base your entire read on someone on their meta it does absolutely nothing for me and feels extremely weak without specific citations.

And while I try not to include that as my case, it absolutely informs why I think his lazy posting is scummy.
Re: M72 - “Echoes of Evelyn” - Game Thread [HIDDEN]
Those are all the same question.Jamiet99uk wrote: ↑Thu Jan 20, 2022 1:00 pmYes, when?
And not only that, but why, wherefore, and for what reason?
I thought it would put people with knowledge of the actual rollback on edge, and, regardless of the success of the primary goal, provide me a modicum of entertainment.

Oh hey, TFB showed up. Just letting you know, boat, posting the long reads post you did and then immediately dipping ain't a good look. I do that as scum all the time.
Bob, if you want people to stop scumreading you, how about stop being reactive and start being proactive. Because right now my eyes glaze over when I see posts from you or mentioning you, because it's been circular for two days now.

What was your thought?

I remember him saying this before.kgray wrote: ↑Thu Jan 20, 2022 2:14 pmCan you make those archived QTs available so it's possible to check if you endorse this as scum? I won't do it, but maybe bozo will. Thanks.Chaqa wrote: ↑Thu Jan 20, 2022 5:32 amBullshit. Roleblocking the kill is such a dumb play when there’s multiple PRs out there, I know you’re better than that.goldfinger0303 wrote: ↑Thu Jan 20, 2022 5:08 am
I hate this post.
Damo, how can it be a silly reaction test if you now no longer suspect Chaqa of being scum? Would you have felt the same way if Chaqa claimed and nobody counter-claimed?
Also while I understand the interaction between Chaqa and ghug can be convincing, we cannot rule out that scum RB'd DeathLlama. There's only two PRs, and if they thought DL was one, it's a 50/50 chance its Doc. If I was scum I'd be roleblocking my kill every night. Why is nobody else even mentioning this possibility?

Honorary, pretty much. And I only really go on webDip on mobile, so that explains why I can't see lol
Re: M72 - “Echoes of Evelyn” - Game Thread [HIDDEN]
You have no good reason to scumread me.kgray wrote: ↑Thu Jan 20, 2022 3:22 pmYeah okay so celaph's 'reads' so far have been pretty bland surface-level statements and his questions seem to be more about finding inconsistencies with or asking for clarification on other people's reads. He's neither looking into motivations nor drawing any insightful conclusions of his own.
And I seriously cannot believe he didn't react at all to me scumreading and voting him. I'm hurt and extremely suspicious. Let's get him.
Also I think boatman is scummy now, and the two of them with ghug make sense as a scumteam in my mind.
Also happy with a Fox/Vecna wagon. That slot has done nothing towny.
