    I know.

    Apparently I'm supposed to learn how to read people but it's not happening, I just end up, like

    finding out a given player forgot about their scumread on now flipped scum and then rediscovered it when said scum was in a dicey position

    but they're town anyway and it was a coincidence because of course it was

    I'm honestly not sure what to do at this point.

    Why are you taking things like this at face value?

    Oh are you feeling after champs game burnt out feeling like shitedness?

    I felt like that last year after my wild card game. It took me several months to shake off feeling crappy. Im sorry if you're feeling bad.

    The Miner thing isn't "I'm straight townreading Miner for that", it's "Miner offered an alternative explanation for his behaviour, but it's technically a subset of my original explanation so I'm reasserting it"

    Well me thinking your strategy sounded perfectly fine from a town pov helped me to argue against it with conviction.

    But whether or not he was right there, or you were right in the westeros game, is neither here nor there to the question I raised which was that I thought you guys would be sorting each other or interacting at least.

    There's no point in forcing these things. It'll happen when it happens.

    I like this read. I felt the first part of it myself when I read that post, and then just kinda shrugged and moved on, but the reciprocal second part was something that I hadn't put together.

    It's... not out of the question that this is w/w? Like, you're getting heat as a wolf, the natural/strong move feels like bussing, since you have the confidence of like... being correct. It doesn't super read like that, though.

    I got that sense from WoWmafia and it is part of why I was scumleaning you that game. You aren't in a greatly better position so far this game, though you have put in some effort which could go either way. I will agree that RWBY was a pretty shit game all around even with Fable pulling off the win in the end, it was just a mess from both sides.

    [​IMG]

    I pull from memory and, when I need to actually verify something, I open another tab and search for it directly. But I'd like to point out that I was being called out by fonti on my Gemma post, and therefore shouldn't that have earned some more scrutiny from your end?

    Okay, fair enough. Thank you for answering.


    I knew I got that paraphrasing wrong. You didn't want to talk about it is what you said per the quote below.

    I'm not sure why you're thinking about it as w/w in the first place, if that makes sense.

    Seconded, actually. I kinda figure the baseline for any interaction is "it could be w/w" so stating it outright is...odd.

    Correct me if I'm wrong but you were called out on whether gemma was actually wolfy for that, not for accuracy on your end?

    Because if I read that correctly the process is still villagery IMO.

    Right it will happen when it happens or should, but you can't really fault me from an outside point of view, having those expectations and wondering. Right or wrong I do have expectations for how people who are close to each other will interact with one another in games and what that interaction or lack thereof might mean for their alignment.

    Makes sense.

    In the realm of weird mind melds, newcomb already reacted to the same post I did, and I didn't say anything because I felt really nitpicky, but #godasmywitness the thinking thing gave me the same reaction.

    (I should point out though that I have a weak townread on gemma at this point, but he's honing in on the exact same things which is the worst reason to like someone but I do.)

    So far as I understand it, it is both, yes. She was pressing me over why I felt it was scummy and said that similar behavior between two games does not necessarily indicate scum on Gemma's part, since I had believed Gemma was just mirroring her same posts between the two games.

    Oooook, we can put Newcomb on the "Not reading my posts" list too.

    I hate to say it but I can't keep going right now, there are over 400 posts and the game has only been up for about six hours? I'm wiped out mentally. I'll get back to looking at Jan and Fable tomorrow when I wake up again. Good night.

    (The joke is that I did not read your post and thus referred to the wrong person

    It was not a very good joke)
