Now, everybody has voted and there are no one-vote wagons.

That is good.

Yes.

Deep thoughts.

Carefully crafted and quoted and picked apart thoughts.

Such as:

OMG SO OBV SCUM!!!
I am obv scum, am I ?
Jamiet is reading and reacting in a very defensive way based on his knee jerk reaction to this post that wasn't calling him obvscum.

His annoyances just seem really random this game too and I don't see the heart behind it.
Sigh…time to reread Jamie

Because if I have 7-8 people I’m never killing, 1-2 people I’m ambivalent about, and a pool of 4 left that I’m probably always flipping regardless because I have so many people I’m never killing, then in deciding who to shoot from among that pool, something like “well P has died D1 three games in a row and Q has been in the endgame all three times” might actually matter to me to some degree. I don’t know that I’d actually flip Q over P because of it, but it would be an open question because I’ve already mostly decided they’re both flipping anyway.

That requires a lot of confidence in the game state though, which I just don’t have right now. I got one shot I think is quite good, another that’s still good but less so (granted, I haven’t ready pyx’s catch-up post), some nulls and I think about 5/12 other players I wouldn’t shoot D1 but haven’t written off. Totally different situation.
7-8?! NEVER killing? How are you so confident in your reads?! While also saying “I have no confidence”
Ah. So I did.

But you keep saying these things ABOUT my mindset. And the approach for it seems off.

Hmm.

I’m happy with my vote still.

And ghug’s behavior during this feels townier. And I don’t THINK he’d do that just because I had been shading him before.
I kept (past tense) saying those things because we both made the same erroneous assumption (that town mindset is whatever mindset I/you have about the situation). In my case I independently TR you so I inquired to figure out where you’re at. In your case you didn’t have a firm read on me for it so you SR me. I don’t think there’s anything meaningfully wrong about your approach (though I disagree with it). I just made mistaken assumptions about what your approach is.

I’m not sure how you find ghug towny from this lol. Except that I guess if you’re convinced I’m scum you can reasonably extrapolate that he’s probably not my teammate. But his behavior in the exchange was just silly

like now Bunny is off on some Eden scumslip nonsense that ghug is entertaining for some reason and seems to have completely forgotten that I am 100% scum after I 1) showed back up in the thread and 2) actually engaged with him

maybe he was trying to break his meta but Bunny legitimately feels bad as a person for going for the back-to-back N1-D1 kills on me and so he's flaking here and moving elsewhere
How do you read that exchange and think I'm entertaining the scumslip?

Is scumreading Bunny necessarily scummy if you don't know him that well, though?

I thought Pyxxy's effort and progression in the catch-up felt authentic.
quote the efforts and progressions by pyxxy you found authentic.
That one wall post. I particularly liked how he said he wasn't voting Bunny and then voted him a paragraph later. That's a weird thing to do if you're just being performative.
ok that’s a valid point, maybe pyx can escape my possible kill list for today

thats actually what performative is. its making your posts into a stage play to look like you are arriving at a conclusion based on new information when clearly the post was only ever focused on bunny and all else was just thrown in to resemble a catchup on everyone
Well, I grew up in the fallout from the riots in the '90s
Static cranes stand lifeless, castin' shadows on the town
I stare out that hallowed ocean as if to pick a fight
For thе dreams my old man dreamt for me lay on thе other side, yeah

You were clearly contributing your voice to pushing the conclusion Bunny reached from his believed detection of a “scumslip,” without endorsing the theory and with reliance on goofy readings of what I was saying in response. You might do that as town, but you would do that as scum. I see what pyx is getting at even if literally calling it “entertaining a scumslip theory” or whatever is somewhat imprecise.

Sure, it could be performance, but if it is, it's good performance, because it perfectly mimics a townie's views progressing as they ingest more information. I find things like that more likely to be real.

How do you view a scum performance where they say things they see but then vote the way they vote to fit the desired outcome?

hmmm okay maybe I'm doing the thing where I think the intentions of my thoughts are clearly but they're clearly not

@brain sorry if I'm a page or two behind but I'm seeing "nothing about how he actually feels about bozo" and like, I guess that's my bad but I feel like my catchups are supposed to give off how I feel about people and my bozo feeling is meh, I don't get why he did a bunch of funny things after getting miskilled D1 last game and I don't really have a read on him because of that

Is that more helpful? Like maybe I'm assuming that no conclusion = neutral or null and that that's coming through in my posts but tbh we didn't get to play much together last game so maybe I'm getting ahead of myself

Could you address my post that you just quoted? Not by quoting it, but by addressing it.

Isn't that different than what you just described because you didn't let yourself push your agenda? I'm not sure why Pyxxy's agenda would be you specifically in any case.

I think good scum let their reads be dictated by how they think they'd view things as town to done extent.

i read the catch-up post and i guess i’m not getting strong impressions from it either way

re: worc and easiest case… maybe. if something did bother me about it, it would be that two people joined it as a joke and have found reasons to stay on it, which is slightly incongruent. but I think Chaqa got it right that worc is just scum ducking and expecting/hoping the wagon goes away, so I’m not gonna worry about it for now. just seemed odd that he suddenly was at the top with so little discussion

re: bozo, I don’t get the scum motivation for his posts. just seems like he’s being targeted for being goofy or weird or whatever which is primo miskill bait
for the people keep tracking at home, Eden and bozo are still on worcej, Jamiet and Chaqa both moved to Flum

Do you think it's worth pressuring worcej further? I'm entirely going off your scum worcej slanks meta read here. I think he's being low activity but it's kinda shrug for me, and since I seem to be big on game-to-game reads rn, I could see it as secondhand embarrassment for claiming so quickly last game. Better not to get involved in anything spicy this game. Bit towny, innit.

Like maybe what I'm asking is, better to wagon elsewhere and solve him later, I think yeah?

I'm willing to skip bozo too for today because he was the D1 chop last ga---*gets sniped from a grassy knoll*

Your final sentence is certainly true. I’m not sure about the first. But I take your point.

I think Eden scum slipped there. ##vote Eden. I’ll let you decide for yourselves without me spelling it out.
Au contraire, I think you should probably spell out whatever you’re saying very simply and straightforwardly because I’m totally lost as to what you’re getting at and pretty confident I could straighten it out if I knew wtf you were on about :lol:
Oh this is scummy though.
