    This is in reply to regfan mentioning how there should be 3 scum in cuth/fable/tsaiah and Owner. Hedge on scottslott now but was just prepared to look through him but suddenly he's just town again. Reading Fable sure town I interpret as TMI here and if newcomb is scum fable is town.

    Not quite decided waht the tsaiah/cuth says about cuth, though. It's interesting though.
    --- Post automerged ---
    He went from "if vira is scum I'll re-read scottslot" to "I want scottslott to be town for now but still suspicious" to "if you can't prove he's not noobtown, he's not scum in my world"


    I mean.. Come on. Wolf caught.
    --- Post automerged ---
    Why the part on Vaimes? just..? out of place.

    Other part = feels like "fuck, vira spewed the scumteam, don't read it" tbh.

    3rd part, yeah, you're just about as much a nk target as I was.. I don't see how newcomb as town would seriously think he had such a big impact on the game he would be the nk. I mean, me as the nk would even be better because everyone would be so confused.

    NK last night was between Newcomb and Reg, outside shot of yeti if all 3 are town.

    Although it was always going to be Reg in the end.

    Part 2:

    I don't like the characterization of Stanari as bare minimum of engagement. Even at that point in the game. It feels like an agenda. So he is pushing Stanari who is starting to push GH. He starts to have suspicions on GH. Why doesn't that change anything for him?

    Rule of 3 puts 1 in fable/newcomb/koalas if scott is a wolf.

    His townread of Vira here is questionable at best.


    This feels so fake. Like why was he going to townread Jari? Ugh. This makes w/w there possible, too. Especially as he was leaning town.






    NAI.


    But, then doesn't say anything else on topic.


    Now we have owner enter the thread.

    I have to assume she and miner have a thing? Otherwise she just said she hadn't read anything.


    Found the last bit pretty confusing. And the fonti read seems too easy, but I don't know their history.


    I feel like, for someone that is catching up, this is weird. Why wouldn't you read more before voting but just take note of it?


    And so it is explained.


    Ok, at this point, it feels like she's trying to derpclear herself.


    Like I said, I get sharing the concern, the vote is what was weird to me.


    Jari, this can still be w/w if she flips wolf.


    I feel like she's made it through a decent amount of posts here, but still has only surface reads.




    NAI.


    It feels like a lot of nothing here. Like she wants to hedge on everyone except Jan.


    The 2nd part is ok, but is easy to ask as either alignment.


    More fluff

    Lots of catch up and only 1 decent part at the end.


    This sounds good, but I want more. I want to know how it helps her understand the process.

    Yeah, but what's the difference between town and scum games for you?

    NAI.



    Not sure this really does anything to move the game forward.


    I feel like this is the most useless question for her to ask at this point.


    Like the first part. I find the 2nd part really weird. Like I feel like it's not going to do anything.


    Kind of, sort of, feels like TMI.

    NAI.



    Is this a shroop?




    Ok, but you do still have to be present sometimes. And not catching up is ok if you can play in real time. That hasn't been happening.

    @Fable are all her reads lists like this? I feel like she hasn't talked about half these people but has reads on them. And reg/zack being null when she voted there earlier is confusing.


    But why is he kind of scummy?


    This doesn't do much to advance the game.



    The dreaded 1 liner read. It kind of feels like she's not really looking at the content when she makes reads like that.


    Probably pocketing fable if she's a wolf. I think this is pretty clearly not w/w.


    And one of her longer poss is basically playing peacekeeper.



    And more of that.




    She switches pretty suddenly.


    All in all, I think the slot is scum. And I think w/w is possible with 113, Newcomb, and Jari. I think Scott was trying to play up the new player card, and I think when you actually look at his thoughts, he's scrambling to explain things away and is very aware of his appearance.

    I thought owner's tone was pretty decent, but she barely does anything and her reads seemed to have changed rapidly or come out of thin air.

    Define alive, that's a questionable word these days.

    Breathing, yes, in good spirits or in a good mood that's up to debate
    --- Post automerged ---
    I doubt this would happen. Usually, mafia will want to individually pocket different people. I think you are safe from that reality.
    --- Post automerged ---
    I think I associate 1 liners with people who spam the thread or read them slightly more scummy. Text blocks, I tend to see more town as they take a lot of effort to produce. But I guess that's pretty subjective or depends on prior experiences.

    I pass my good spirits on to you.



    Kinda get the impression that dya went into the Scott ISO with the assumption that he’s mafia instead of parsing it from a neutral perspective. I read some parts and they felt stretchy, like she was molding his quotes to fit her conclusion/interpretation.

    Eh.

    I’ll read it again later.

    @Fable why are you voting for yourself?

    Ok, I've made the posts I mentioned from p280 to p285 that were just really scummy. Hope you enjoy.

    Do you know why he talks with bird gifs? I tend to read into gifs like a crazy person or something, but I feel it is hard to read motivation without a context about what the bird is about.

    Either go to that person's profile page, and look at their recent posts or hit the magnifying glass in the bottom left hand corner of left side profile thingy.

    @dyachei while I agree that owner is probably scum, you're basically saying I began the day by bussing my two teammates immediately...

    Or I guess a better way to put it is that there’s like, nothing there she thinks is towny. Nothing positive Scott’s done, which.

    When you’re ISO’ing someone and you don’t know their alignment, all of their posts aren’t going to be 100% towny or 100% scummy. So I feel like she went in with the intention to /not/ find a single towny thing about him.

    Horrible confirmation bias or scum BS’ing. Is my homework to solve.

    (I haven’t read the whole thing in detail, there could be some “yeah this was kinda towny” comments, but on the whole it just looks like MathBlade’s “bad bad bad nai bad everything is bad” ISOs.)

    It's okay Stanari everyone has a bad read every once in awhile. At least, you were able to tell she was somebody or had power.

    And I guess a /better/ way of putting it is that it looks like a post with the intention to get someone lynched, rather than someone who caught scum.

    I could see it being a tunnel. The hype things adds to it. Suggests Dya found something there.

    I did read them of course, but sure, I'll take another look and share any thoughts I may have.

    Everyone keeps bringing up MathBlade when talking about me. I feel like there should be a game where both him and me are playing at the same time, so that people can't keep referencing him when talking about me.

    The MathBlade comparison is about dya, not you. :V

    Self meta is a tricky thing. I mean we all do it, but it is so easy to leave things out.

    Is this hype a recent development, or has she been consistently going after Scottslot?
    --- Post automerged ---
    If there’s like, a post where she goes “hey I thought Scott was scum before, and now that we have scumflips, I’m even more sure now!”

    Otherwise doubling down on him after two scum deaths is eh, squinty.

    Owner and Vira both dropped off significantly and could be safely bussed.

    Oddly enough, this is how I feel about your approach to me.

    I don't think there *is* anything scott's done that's towny. He had a couple ok moments. Owner had a lot more. But a lot of really questionable moments.

    idfc anymore. Lynch me.
