Townies know they are town. Therefore, when people call them scum, they instinctively believe the accuser is "bad" or scum. After all, they are town and they know that the accuser is wrong. This knowledge makes them act in anger and frustration when defending themselves. Classic thought process: "How could this asshole accuse me? I'm town! I've been playing super pro-town all game and this guy is saying I'm scum? He must be a terrible player or scum." While DP's anger toward me could be manufactured, it feels rather genuine. Given DP exhibited this exact same response to at least one other player (geript) and probably someone else I forgot too, why is it enough to give you a townread of him when directed at you, yet it doesn't even register on your radar when he did it earlier in the thread (which you have apparently been reading)? | ||

Talk to me about both your FT and VE reads if you'd be so lovely. | ||

In fact. He called me scummy for doing it earlier, and townie when it was directed at him. | ||

My filter already has my read on VE, and him dropping off almost completely since hasn't made me less suspicious. Only reason I wasn't comfortable going after him harder was because I'm new and have zero meta to go on about his posting habit, method and emotional level. | ||

He said he did it on purpose as a way to read me. Like he was intentionally inconsistent so that he could see if I would pick up on it or not. This was all discussed on the previous page. I don't buy it. Clearly. As I am voting for him. | ||

There's a whole thread-worth of material, including plenty of yours to be looking at, and he feels the need to indulge in some silly 'game' to read your alignment. Why??? Almost anything else is better to do than that. | ||

Yeah, its easy to get butt hurt over stuff like that.. but.. in my experience 9/10 its town that do stupid stuff like this, and sometimes create even stupider cover stories because they dont want to admit they are wrong. Im still sussing out whether I think FT fits into that category.. as in, whether he is that 1/10 that is scum. | ||

I've seen you get like this at various points of a game but never so consistently throughout and obviously so. This is what made me talk early on about you 'overdoing it.' | ||

Because people are attacking me stupidly based on meta they clearly know nothing about. Also geript has been a total fucking dick wad this game if he is town. And has repeatedly try and rile me up. Look at Ego. I did the same thing when scum oats attacked me stupidly based on meta. | ||

People accuse each other of shit all the time! Both stupidly and intelligently alike! Welcome to mafia! My suggestions is calm your tits and play the game without resorting to the angry tone, again either fabricated or real. Scaring FT away doesn't do a whole lot for us but it certainly makes it easier to accuse him of being scum which appears to be what you want? Now if you please, have a look at my earlier post for me and if you have any thoughts on the matter I'd like to hear them. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=423071¤tpage=51#1005 | ||
