Like, by definition a vet will have different biases than a rookie because a vet has played more games, right? Or maybe a vet knows people better or something. If you can put together a reason why these biases might be bad (for example, a vet might arbitrarily be pro lynching BH since BH is way to sexy) or at least a list of what these biases ARE, then we can have a conversation. otherwise, you're just weighing in without saying anything, a classic active lurker move.

Players they like, players they don't care for and would lynch scum or town because they hate their play. I suspect there are certain vets (VE, Marv, etc) who basically never get lynched D1 because when they are town they are often shot. I'd certainly be hesitant to lynch VE, or even to consider pushing him, even if I thought he was scum, during D1. For example, this game I don't have a townread on VE, which is evidence to me that he's scum (scum VE rarely strikes me as scummy). you wont' see mentioning this or pushing it in thread though, for a number of reasons. mostly ve isn't lynchable today, and I could be wrong and he'll be shot tonight. But also, my read on VE is a gutread. something just seems off to him. I can't just point at something and say "this is where VE is being scum" because if I could, I would just do that. I may have to sit and think a bit leading up to D2 on whether or not he really is scum, and as importantly, whether or not actually pushing him would do anything but get me lynched. | ||

Town VE would slap that shit out of the sky because he knows, deep down, that he's right and mocsta is wrong. VE is subconsciously less willing to engage with mocsta's case because he knows it's right | ||

Show me meta about this pls. it's not meta dude it's basic scumtells, applies to everyone. and town ANYONE seeing someone under pressure try to engage them would RESPOND unless he's afraid because he really knows it's a legit attack | ||

People in general defend themselves. The question is, what mindset motivates you when you see a case from a pressured player on you to say "well, not even gonna respond to that. no need to engage the thread or move things along"? imo this mindset is scum. VE is scum. | ||
