how dare you not let mod get the page topOf all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

that's his first impression of you right? First impressions are the most important. I'm sure there have been plenty of players that had a negative opinion of me if I played poorly in our first game and positive if I played well. Also, the butthurt on this site is real.
the truth is prob somewhere in between.Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive.

I'm not sure about this. This feeling of "I'd be immediately lynched in a massclaim situation" is immediately apparent to me (and it seems to you as well) as not being logical. SheIn post 158, RAS wrote:

Given that and the fact that there's some prior meta which would be consistent with this kind of play as scum makes me increasingly nervous.
But it's different. This role doesn't passively mess with nice actions like a miller would. She has total control over it. So I don't see it as being inherently anti-town necessarily. Maybe difficult to use effectively. But ultimately she just didn't need to claim it and just not use the role if she felt that way.In post 195, ConManMick wrote:
Do you agree that its utility is antitown though?

Why would we lynch there in a massclaim necessarily? Why, as town, would you immediately give scum that extra info and make it even easier to sort other slots?

Why not? I mean I don't entirely get what's going on but clearly there's some issue between nancy and roster that must involve an ongoing game or something. I don't feel like the frustration (or the replace out) is particularly AI either way?In post 206, RAS wrote:Just some quick thoughts regarding this whole Nancy thing.
Nancy's frustration level here don't make any sense for someone who was excited to be in this game; 106/107. Tonally, it's not even remotely natural, and the way she handled Roster's vote just feels forced to me. I'm not valuing the fact that she's replacing out into any of this since it's her initial reaction to the vote that bothers me the most.
I still believe that Creature is scum, but I'm more content placing my vote here because of the above.
VOTE: RX.
I don't like Creature's posting but I feel like it's kinda his style. I'm not sure how much you can get out of this. I'd definitely like to see more contribution from him though. But given that we're having a very slow and replacement-heavy game so far there's probably more lurky slots that need to be evaluated as well (LUV for one). Why do you feel Creature is particularly scummy compared to some other similar slots?In post 208, RAS wrote:
The above still stands true and is the reason why I haven't gone too much into it. It's not "playing those cards close to my chest", it's just something I don't think I have to go into yet until he contributes more. I can go into it into more detail though.In post 133, RAS wrote:I dislike Creature's opening posts and find them forced. It's based on fairly flimsy reasoning considering what he's contributed so far, and something I'd rather not go into.
I think 100 is a poor attempt to throw away what was a legit discussion with the whole Mastina thing. There are a lot of reasons why it was still discussed, and I find it odd why someone would question why it's still being discussed. It basically got the game going, and is still the main topic of discussion.
104 is flat-out false considering how many people brought up in this game that Town!Mastina doesn't do this. It feels like such a lazy read when there were a lot of discussions before this. I don't believe that the only read he got from the previous pages is Town!Mastina.
What convinced you of this enough to switch your vote?

Frustration is not a town-tell. Scum can easily be emotionally invested too. For the life of me I don't get why that would make the slot seem at all less scummy.In post 231, rosterfoster wrote:No it’s more the fact that I can’t see her faking that level of emotion (and it really would be faked if she was scum as it seems like she thinks I’m a terrible town player or smth).
Also Flavour can never roll scum in games I’m in.

to be fair, why would she be frustrated as scum ever when she's hydra'd with me? Sure, this is still borderline AI, but my conf bias knows differently, and I'm narcissistic.In post 296, Montosh wrote:

I've got no meta on being hydra with you as scum. In any case, I think it's perfectly possible for some people to become frustrated no matter their alignment.
