Like, I assume he crumbed it with knowledge that it would probably make people townread him. Which is fine. But then it's weird to get paranoid about people townreading you.
If scum have knowledge of the score mechanic, I think they would probably infer that having knowledge of the score mechanic is a scum-specific phenomenon and would not imply knowledge of it in-thread. Further, it would not be that exactly one player appeared to have special knowledge of the mechanic.
It is possible that your scumteam could have recognized this and decided to have one player gambit appropriately, but probably less likely than the straightforward case.
You could also be some kind of 3rd party, but I doubt it because it would warp expected winrates too much for the overall Team Mafia scoring system.
I assume he voted you based on an inference that my ONE WEIRD TRICK ABOUT CEPHRIR post was inviting pressure on you. Mostly it was just intended to address that you'd alluded to confusion on that point enough that I thought it might warrant clearing-up (whether because you didn't intend to imply it, or because your reads are being warped by something easy to understand). But he is welcome to correct me.
One thing that did occur to me about hyposcumCephrir is that it's possible that you did not intend to imply such knowledge as scum, and then simply neglected to correct people's inference. But I don't know why scumCephrir would express paranoia in that case, particularly.
I'm going to clear the air sooner rather than later. All my posts on the subject of the score should be taken at face value. I have at best a teensy bit of insight and it's almost completely irrelevant.
I'm not rally reading him based off him I'm more reading him based off mala but
I am never a fan of pbpa being an auto townread as you well know! the 1 thing that he has done that I liked was point out why he was sort of townreading cephrir.
but other than that I don't think iceyrent is doing anything that super wows me into going "iceyrent is so town!" but then I am NOT the best at reading him. I am not sure about him giving a pass to reck but ugh.

Why he says he is not motivated is not relevant, I don't like him using a similar phrasing and reason as the one I peovided for him based on the town game we played together.
If he is scum he started trying to control the game like Ceph, but shut down when he noriced he was getting into dangerous waters with his pushes.
@Mollie
What don't you like about it?
they read as pretty surface to me and don't really leave me feeling like you are sinking your teeth into that read altho i suppose voting him and trying to build a wagon on him is a way of sinking your teeth into him.

What do you think of his elaboration on mala's thought process re:me? That's the thing I have been like "okay that seems town"
Please, give a case on me, I could use a fight to get back into this game!
I have not been under the impression you ever left since you have consistently been posting and I have not picked up on 1 bit of apathy yet. so can you point to me where you were feeling like your head was not in the game?

well I know how sneaky iceyrent can be and reading some1 as town cos they are townreading you is simply never a good idea and I am surprised that you don't know this.
I am just going to be honest with you; I am reluctant to fully trust or work with you cos I think you know the markers that I used to use to determine whether you were town or not. you used them in pvz and even helped me and kuribo lynch your scummate so no, I am treating you at arm's length until I can manage to solidify a read.
I am not sure how many times I have to tell pple that I am not having the easiest time of getting a foothold in the game even tho i keep trying. I just don't have anything solid to go on. like I am thoroughly worried about reck cos I attended the same social events that he did and he has about much to do as I do with his day.
right now I am waiting on answers to outstanding questions from him and shos and I am giving cephrir about a minute to answer my 1 to him.
Mollie, when have you played with scumIec, other than Reckoning III meatworld games?
myko's zombie game and that game where garmr and I never clicked in our hydra and then he got sitebanned for 6 months. I gut read you as scum for an unquantifiable reason in myko's and you flew under the radar in the other.
I don't remember the one that isn't myko's game, but I guess I believe you.
The myko game was kinda unusual because I was culted that game.
I asked because I think I had to replace out of some recent games with you, so you may have remembered my alignment incorrectly, and I couldn't think of such games.
