- think their early game was trying to be LAMIST-y / trying to look uninformed about the setup
- making weird votes for which i cannot track their thought processes
- dislike their reactions to people calling them scummy (

the read kinda started a very long time ago and nothing about their content has really improved or made me change my mind

i'm not really concerned with convincing you i'm town right now, in part because i don't think i'm in real danger of getting killed here, in part because your reasons for scumreading me seem to stem from disliking me being abrasive and pressuring people i see as not having done much, and ultimately i feel like we are operating on different wavelengths and are not going to see eye to eye here

ISO dive just gives me a lot of nothing, their votes come as sheeping and it's real fluffy elsewhere. I think Toog is proud enough to want to contribute at some form but they really aren't. Is is just 'too blatant to be scummy' for you?

i wouldn't even call it sheeping so much as voting randomly with a slight bias towards votes he saw recently

and yeah i think he would just be more involved/aware/agenda-y/trying to do stuff as scum

i don't think it's impossible for him to play into that, the fact that he is just treating the game with open disdain is tilting because he's capable of putting in more than he has

i'm partly motivated here because i just got out of an offsite game where someone trolled and fucked around and barely played the game and scumclaimed repeatedly and town leveled themselves out of voting this person and let them make F5 before finally killing them


and like in general it feels like in games here there's been a case where people have had scum against the ropes for non-contributing and have just big brained themselves into thinking the answer has to be something more complicated


and i can't pretend it's guaranteed he's scum but really what he's doing is flat-out unacceptable and the fact that people are just sort of writing him off/giving a pass for it is not ok

honestly he seems kinda checked out and i'm not sure he reread the same bits or read further on in toog's iso when he came to the latter conclusion
(like i'm not sure he was thinking about the same exact thing twice)

and i know i've had times where i thought x about soemthi9ng but changed my mind later on
so yeah i don't know if inherently find this scummy

also maybe i'm still biased from the prism iteration of the slot but my overall view of the slot is still +town

I'm not trying to make some grandiose point but Dwlee vote to me just seems so flat and not really game-changing. Same thing with Toog/Gypyx really. I think I would want to use the execution for realistically a more controversial read matched with a (Toog/Gypyx) type person because I'm certain the Pooky switch is not an informed Toog/Gypyx/Dwlee groupscum decision, even if nobody has implied they think that could contain the whole groupscum.

As an aside, I don't know what people see in Saber but I also don't have the proper words at this time.

oh i don't disagree with you and i'm not giving him a pass
he needs to die before elo

like what he's doing is bad and awful and utterly not helpful
but i'm not convinced any of that makes him scum tho

this feels like not the best way of treating the slot when prism is so good at scum, i feel like we should treat it more as a blank slate

and yes gypyx's content hasn't been too bad but it hasn't been super towny either, and i feel like a lot of other people are townier

even dwlee i feel the same way about them that you (and me) do about toog, which is that i think scum!him would care more and be doing more to get tred (i don't see the early game thing as a fake townslip tbh)

If the consensus is Dwlee/Gypyx/Toog because the more involved crowd is off-limits then I don't think it's going end up well

And if the consensus is me then you already know lol. I've been thinking about just letting Ydrasse in, but the only person who really has said 'i think she's scum' point blank is peta. Everyone else is skirting around it or disagrees

and i guess gypyx is just the opposoite for me. it hasn't been good but like it isn't scummy either, and most of what he's doing can be reasonably explained by irl things that he's alluded to (tests, being tired, etc)

i don't know anything about dwlee so i can't speak for any meta there, i'm not sure i've even ever been in a game with them before

refer to my immediate rant about people not wanting to kill players who aren't trying to solve the game and wanting something ~spicy~ instead that ends up being a miss

if you want something else, make a case but these feeble little protests do nothing

how much of the game have you read, anyway?

I just feel disconnected at the moment because people are either townreading or shelving me but also find my POV uncompelling or do not engage with it. The two premises don't mix logically. I'm either wrong or someone is deceptive.

I don't know what to do here.

Also bothered that the two slots with replacement slots were also slots that I had a solid read trajectory on, which was disrupted.

I think my drive to punish slots I believe have been bad for thread health is obstructing my reads, being told "do something else" isn't vibing.
