ExO, should I be asking why you're not 'largely communicating in gifs'? Don't get me wrong, I'm glad you're not, but I'm curious as to what made you change your mind.


[image loading]


So if you ARE mainly communicating in gifs then why claim a role first thing before doing that? Seems illogical for town to do.


You think it's illogical for me to immediate claim VT before posting a gif?

Give me a break. If anything your attempt to get me to revert to gif posting only and now trying to throw shade on me is indicative of your scum alignment

Why so defensive, mate? :<

"Give me a break" after two trivial questions is much of an over-exaggeration, mang.

mahrgell (spelled your name right), what do you make of Exo and Calix's lil" chit chat so far? c:

1) I'm very proud you got my name correct this time. Maybe we delay your lynch a few days!

2) Calix: Looked to me like an "let's start the game" thing, I don't share Exo's interpretation that Calix wanted to silence him. This does not tell anything about Calix though. Could be fake activity, considering that those pathetically weak early attempts rarely lead to much information, could also honest interest in starting something. So nothing here.

3) Exo: his retaliation seemed... weird. I don't see a point there. I guess I could consider it something meta'ish that you blindly accuse everyone day1 to be mafia to "apply pressure and get things going". So either minor scumlean or just some broken metashit.

4) conclusion: I consider it for now as TvT, if it is MvT I would lean more in facor of Calix being the townie, I doubt it is MvM, but well... people can prep the most stupid shit before the game... Let's wait and see


PS: if anyone is not a he and wants to be called a she... tell me... Otherwise I use internet rule #1 and consider everyone a male.

Bolded gives two opposite directions of having a lean on Exo. "Wierd and pointless" for a scum perspective for overreaction and "pressure and get the game going" for town perspective. He looks quite uncertain about both regards by his specific wording.

I explained my way of thinking often enough, I will try to find explanations for behavior from both POV. Exactly as I did there.
By now I figured this gets me sr rather often. But no, I won't change it. I still believe in it being the good way, and if you are willing to read my posts from the POV i explained several times, I hope you can understand them better. Is it different from the "lets ignore all interpretations that dont fit my case and just point at one side of the medal" approach, that is so prominent here? Yes. Is it worse? I don't know, I don't think so. But maybe having both approaches in the game is actually helpful.

@Exo
so, you are sticking with Calix as your prime scumcandidate?

Exo replies yes.
Mahg says nothing.


Here I would prefer to have you read it without filters...
How things went down:
- Calix and Exo engange, Exo scumblames Calix (and I consider him weird)
- Foreman joins the fun, charging at Calix
- Exo turns silent.
This for the moment looked like a typical "start something and then go quiet as soon as someone else takes over". So to fill the gap and keep Exo responsible, all I wanted is to have an update on his position. I got the update, this was all I needed.

Mind you this is like the only thing going on in the thread other than Calix vs NU.
Then he goes after NU, accusing him of not following up on Exo vote and posts this.

Now that you noticed your misread. Are you still going after Calix, or have you shifted your focus on NU?
Would the argument you made for Calix also apply to NU? Or where do you see the difference there?


The fact he isn't voting ExO does not make his push any less disingenuous.


Knock knock, Calix is here, asking you to read my NU case like a good dear.

Is my NU case also disingenuous? If so, how?


Considering you've yet to acquit yourself for that shady ExO push, I'm not concerned about your NU push when he isn't even here to respond to it.


Why not? Following multiple leads is not bad for town.
And even if we flip Calix in the end, no matter what color it is, having his talking points discussed would be beneficial to town. So I can't understand that refusal to comment on it. Especially as I would be very interested in your opinion.

Don't worry, we won't forget about Calix. And if you feel it got forgotten, ust bring it up later again, if someone wants to balem you for it, just forward it to me.


Where is your follow up on Exo then?



Nobody asked me about Exo, and I had an active talking point I wanted to explore first. If this is the same to you as refusing to answer a very clearly directed question... Can't help you.


I'm happy with this response. You bad no longer.

So the majority of my read on you is based off of your interactions with mahrgell. Although nothing you've done has screamed uber town, small things like you not really giving a shit about how people view your playstyle leads me to believe that you're playing your own style and not trying to conform to "please" other towns.

Share your thought process. I haven't seen any reasoning on those reads and admit they don't make sense to me.

Uhhh...

Wut?


Problem?


Yea I think he fucked up his formatting or summin.

Oh wait is it like a town to scum thing?

Pretty weak list if that's the case.


Yeah it's pretty clear what his reads are.

I actually agree with you that Rels is underwhelming. Admittedly I am biased here - I've only seen him play when I was scum and I was actually pretty nervous of him that game - but I don't get that same kind of 'aggression' or whatever here. I don't know wherever he's apathetic town or scum though so there's that to contend with.

But looking at his filter, he does this:

- Town-reads ExO for claiming VT
- Talks about NU's meta/ turbo game, disagrees with NU's assessment
- Scum-reads Skynx due to 'looking like scum!TW in 72 hours'
- Claims to hate darthfoley's post (does not say why)
- Questions your town-reads on mahrgell/ myself

Given that's all he's done, that's a fair amount of shade-throwing in my opinion and not a lot of explaining his scum-reads.


Is this enough to warrant a full-blown scum-read? No.

However I have reasons to town-read everyone else so this is largely a "voting for the players who are least-likely to be town" kind of vote, not a "Rels is super-scummy" thing.

I'll reread the cases against TT, Skynx, ExO, etc later today or tomorrow though,

I'm not sure I follow your point. Does mahrgell say "Rels disagreeing with me on XYZ reads is bad" and uses the "but he's controversial" part as a mitigating factor? I can kind of see an argument for "he's hedging on Rels" but I'm not sure if that was what you were implying.

I'd appreciate some clarification on your thought process here

Ok more or less caught up.

Exo and Foreman seem like the obv scum team to me atm. A little less sure on Foreman, but eh w/e.

Exo is prob scum for his reaction to Calix's questions as well as him dropping the gif stuff. Calix was right to ask him why he dropped his "I'm gunna post in mostly gifs" kus the most likely reason why he would drop that plan is if he rolled scum and decided it would draw too much attn to himself. I think the fact the he only posted the one gif kinda supports that as well.

Exo's push on Calix is pretty BS too, saying she is scum for "trying to get him to post gifs" is just stupid kus there is no way that is what she was implying. Not to mention that I don't think Calix would ever do that as scum either.

After arguing with Calix a bunch all he did was call me scum for my one liner open. Seems like the obv lynch to me.

##Vote: Exo_


Exo is scum with Foreman

Exo is scum for overreacting to a bad push > No, he had right to do that, he got voted by someone else plus the guy making the push didn't vote for him and said he is not even scumreading him. He has to retaliate here otherwise people will accuse him for not going after shitty pushes.

Exo is scum for dropping the gif stuff > So you actually suggest him trying to be pro-town implies he did it because he rolled mafia is absolute OMGUS.

Exo is scum for shitty push on Calix > I can sort of agree with this cuz it was badly worded. However
Not to mention that I don't think Calix would ever do that as scum either.
this is quite bad as Exo's push is not indicative of Calix' alignment as regardless of the retaliation, Calix' push was bad and he stepped back from it and should be pushed for it.

Nothing about Foreman

this is literally the worse case ever

Calix and Marghal (or w/e) are my top town atm. Mostly everything they have done has been to push the game forward and have been looking at multiple people from multiple angles.

Skynx is a little shitter for trying to imply that this early game is NAI. This is prob the least jokey start of a game I have every seen. Kinda null on him despite his early posts seeming unlikely to come from scum imo.

I kinda think NU is town but I'm not really sure why, just feels natural and relaxed I guess. In the same vein I kinda liked Dark's one post too so they are both townleaning nulls.


"pushing the game forward" here means voting for wrong and weak and meaningless reasons that are not there.
have been looking at multiple people from multiple angles.
what does this even mean? Can you like quote some stuff indicating why them two are town? Cuz i see nothing.

Middle ground on me, calls me shitter, unlikely to come from scum, in the end null. If above two are town for pushing the game forward by a clear margin for you, why am I not an as clear scum for doing the absolute opposite??

These don't make any sense. Two lists of opinions about people after a long silence and they are all meaningless/wrong.

This is pretty out of context. First Calix saying she wasn't scumreading him has nothing to do with his defense since Calix said that much later (I also have no issues with her pointing out something she doesn't like, calling it illogical or w/e, and then not scumreading the person for it. I actually shows deeper thinking imo). Second, of course anyone is going to defend themselves, it's about how they do it. Exo took 2 questions from Calix as some kind of immense pressure to make him post gifs (what?) and called her scum for it. That's overblown no matter how you look at it.

I stand by my assessment. Him changing his stance from "I'm gunna post gifs and have fun" to "I'm gunna claim VT and get all serious about shit" is far more likely to come from someone who rolled scum and doesn't want to draw attention for posting mostly gifs.

You clearly don't know what OMGUS is.

You could be, but similarly to my thinking on Exo your early play was openly drawing attn to yourself which is not usually what scum want to do. I alluded to that somewhere.

How does any of that make me scum?

And long silence? How are you going to accuse me of taking a long silence when you've spent the whole first half of the phase just complaining about reading and only now getting around to posting substance...

[image loading]

Your other post was decent, but you can stay floating in null/scum territory for this.


1) It is related. Exo has to react to Calix push here no matter what. Calix left his push open ended and didnt vote him despite calling him out. If Exo doesn't reply it looks bad for him.

If you wanna make it a tone argument that really goes nowhere. He could have ridicules his push instead of being all sorts of serious but that doesnt change the argument at all.

2) How is "I'm gona claim VT and play serious" an accusation here... do you even realise what you're saying here?

You supporting this kind of thing as OMGUS is just all sorts of biased for whatever reason. Maybe i know that reason tho.

3) So both me and Exo draw attention on ourselves but he's scum and im not???

4) I don't know what you mean with that picture. Posting two relatively large posts after not posting for a while will relate you actually caught up with stuff and got factual solid opinions on people rather than when playing play by play. Thats not the case here, your posts just look like you nitpicked random stuff and piled them up and said somehow that makes x scum.

You definitely gona have to step up to avoid lynch.

- why does he town NU
- why does he town Foreman - I can see people not agreeing my concerns regarding foreman, but seriously, what has he done to make him a townread???)
- what makes foley scummy? - "hates post" okay... Tell me more.

Share your thought process. I haven't seen any reasoning on those reads and admit they don't make sense to me.


and eventually, in his last large post, claims that he views Rels neutrally. Which doesn't make sense considering his prescribed stance from earlier. This scum read of mine of mahrgell helps me consider you to be town.

Why'd you change your vote off of mahrgell to Skynx?




Phone posting sucks...

I'm voting Tictock mate.

I've yet to see one productive post from this guy, and it's hard to remember that he's even in the game.

I'm here, still reading all the shitty posts unfortunately and that takes time.

Also, congratz for exposing yourself for going after a low-hanging fruit.


Seriously?

Who calls themselves low hanging fruit?

That's such a crap defense.

I'd have expected reasons for his lack of activity and dismissive posts, but he's coming across as "expect this all the time".

Stand by the facts.

I was just an emo at this point to most people including you. Just before i posted some actual reads. I was the definition of low hanging fruit.

Thats not a defence, thats an accusation for you going for someone whos just raging about the game rather than post your thoughts on actual playing people some of which you were definitely scumreading at this point.

Sure, as soon as you explain your read of me, which was given before you know my reads of everyone else.


So the majority of my read on you is based off of your interactions with mahrgell. Although nothing you've done has screamed uber town, small things like you not really giving a shit about how people view your playstyle leads me to believe that you're playing your own style and not trying to conform to "please" other towns. Basically the antithesis of buddying.

I liked this post specifically

. Scum has usually 2 options:
a) make up stuff
b) reinforce shitty assumptions by townies
Meanwhile a townie sees what I see. So if I feel myself completely unable to follow the line of thought of a player, this is a scumlean for me. In the end, I have to judge if the different judgements made by other players are due to different character or due to hidden agenda.


This is terribad. So any townie that you disagree with is scummy to you?

Because like, two town can't see the same thing and have completely different thoughts about the same situation
, what with the fact that everybody has identical environmental factors and upbringing, amirite?

Oh wait...


This is a bit of a segue, but mahrgell says a townie sees what I see. So if I feel myself completely unable to follow the line of thought of a player, this is a scumlean for me

Phonepost...

Read again. I said i want rels explanations before i judge.
So far i see:
Controversial reads, not even trying to blend in - townish
Reads lacking reasons - scummish

I want him to explain himself. If i can make sense out of how he came to his reads... that makes him towny for me. If i cant: i consider him more scummish

I also town-read Skynx. Doesn't mean that's a reason to sheep him.

I hope you have other thoughts since this is rather underwhelming so far.

Also I'm not that convinced on TT so I am midway through skimming his filter. I actually think his responses have been quite reasonable so far.

If you're referring to #467 then allow me to go into more detail:

- I agree with the part about ExO. My question was a reasonable thing to ask, simple as that, and it's undeniable that ExO overreacted.

- I disagree that it makes ExO scum though which is what TT thinks.

- I don't understand why you call his scum-read on ExO OMGUS unless I misunderstood something.

- Your most valid point is his read on you compared to his read on ExO which he doesn't explain well. (the last part) I think you could have cut out the rest of your case since it's your best point.

Otherwise yes, I think his responses were fine.
