True because we have no way to prevent scum from getting parachutes which is why this game 100% benefits scum.
Still haven’t said how this makes me scummy
I said I was suspicious which isn’t the same thing. I just didn’t understand why you thought it was bad to be suss on people giving chutes to scummier players because that really doesn’t make any sense to me.
Because they are scummier to you. So person A giving parachute to someone else fine
Person b giving to someone sus.

If person B is more sus than person A then you’re substituting your reads and calling it sus because you don’t agree without evaluating the reads of the person doing it.

In other words it’s not the destination that matters or the person doing it it’s the relationship

If Noraa gave me a parachute I would be suspicious
But because it’s A50 I am not

I’m very suspicious of Math. He first claimed that D1 was a “popularity contest” and now being suss about parachutes being given to non consensus trs is somehow a bad thing. I’m very glad I picked SS over him now because that’s just bonkers.
This is still correct.

The mechanics are leading people to treating it like a popularity contest vs scum hunting.

What can I do if I scumread someone? I can’t pressure them.
Because if it was actually a popularity contest, Noraa would have been one of the first ones picked, she’d definitely be picked before me 100% but it’s based of of reads for the majority - at least it was for me and Tweetie anyway.
Most popularity contests don’t work like that. I mean look at Survivor. I don’t know you but you have a lot of TRs so you probably go first.
Survivor isn’t totally based on that only partially but I was referring to in general. Noraa’s GTKAS is so huge, it will probably overtake War and Peace eventually.
So? This is another non sequitur. A huge GTKAS means they talk a lot. Doesn’t mean most popular. People are going to have to get creative.

Yes this game sucks as it’s all about reflexes. But if we get another game we have to maneuver.[/quote]


In part but she has many fans posting in it because her posts in it are extremely entertaining. If I were Pooky, I would just totally scrap this game and move on to game 3 because this phase is as boring af.

There hasn’t actually been a list made of who is consensus town and who is scum only a very vocal minority.

And the more we play this way along with the toxic mechanics the more we will lose people.

Well so you do get it then, now I’m even more confused.

Koba, for the sake of argument. You might have a chance at limiting the PoE in my team if i can convince FB to do it.

So who do you think most likely flips scum in team Clown, assuming there is one?

People are saying A50 is sus because of the suggestion that I am scumread.
Keep in mind I as scum as very good at optics and know how that would look.

Instead of considering where A50 is coming from and sorting him they’re just using the conceptions of a vocal minority

We have a loud vocal minority in thread rather than conversations
This leads to a lack of hunting because people go
“Oh loud people talking”
“Sheep”
Done

Combined with the lack of agency that’s dangerous

Math, shh. I'm literally trying to scum hunt and you just won't stop stalking about how it's impossible to scum hunt.

Actually that question goes to Dwlee too if they have the will to answer.
Who could be scum in my team and why?

Oh I see but I was interpreting it more like Wheme wanting a chute for every member of his team irrespective of how he reads them and on your team, I trust Noraa and Q the least but I get your point now.
