day three was so lucky that espionage picked that day to get her post restriction.

and varsoon needed to die -so- hard afterwords.

I was worried that vax would also push mollie day 4, but SK took care of that for us for some reason.

Varsoon was really the only one left in town who understood why mollie had slipped though.

i was reading and i guess i wasn't reading into mechanics very hard at all

(and fucking hell guys, this game would've been solvable by massclaim, all of scum's negative abilities are negative SCUM utility. my claim was confirmed town)

but i legit didn't understand at all why mollie scumslipped

to me she scumslipped just by pivoting on her read on me

- i complained about wallposts shitting up the game at the beginning and people got upset at me when i told them i wasn't going to read into them
also i ironically said "wallposts are all garbage" and old playerlists are apparently a 100% joke-free zone

- varsoon wanted someone he could trust (for his role), and i told him he could trust me. this was seen as scummy, so instead he "trusted" scum-pirate-mollie.

- i voteparked a lurker to pressure them into posting (and see who would jump on the wagon). they got replaced, the slot crucified me for it, and town didn't like the resultant reads i had

- espeonage repeatedly said i was playing like shit and assumed i would play better as town

- i stopped defending myself against wallpost cases made against me

- i literally claimed 1-shot janitor as my negative ability (which i'd softed by saying i would never EVER use it), and half the town treated that as me claiming scum in-thread

- my end-of-day reads list was full of psychological profiles on people (like strong townread on assemblerotws) and people assumed i was just making shit up

- 2 people who were scumreading me died N1

- i told everyone that my wagon was 100% town and they took this to mean "okay that means mathdino must be scum"

- i told everyone that the setup HAD to be 1 SK vs 3 scum and wasn't remotely 2:2 multiball and they were like "how the fuck could you possibly know that" and took my logic to be bullshit

Huh. Yeah. All that crappy shit you did. Don't do that next time. Maybe then I wouldn't be distracted with voting you.

cut it out

all the "crappy shit i did" was literally being right about almost every one of these points

my logic well understood by 2018 newbies on this site

your refusal to read into my posts because you didn't like me pressuring your slot is, again, not on me

you not once had constructive criticism of that communication, you just called my early play shit (it wasn't; half the game lurked out and i still caught one scum with the godel wagon) and then called my correct points nonsense

and then you called me the single most anti-town person in the game in both role and posting


you're not going to get better if you blame everyone else for being scummy to you and other players who don't know how to read people

explain exactly what about this post for example was shit

Scum-Assembler in the situation where he wakes up and decides "hey I think the post I make is going to be one about how cool and pro-town I'm being reducing the effect of my negative ability!"
He doesn't go into the thread, say "Hey I found something" and just fucking leave without placing a vote. He's not a total idiot, and I'm making the assumption that he at least uses his one liner once-per-2-days posts to try to survive as scum.
Scum-Assembler feels like he'd go in and actually elaborate and make it clear that he's totally doing what's best for the town (rather than not explaining at all), and then posts a vote.

So yeah, towntell, he's just genuinely fuckin useless.
because it was 100% right and so far i have a good record of reading assemblerotws after my first game with him

you're good

you had the correct read on me, i can't really fault you for that side

my only advice is to not lynch solely mechanically when your reads indicate otherwise

if i were scum in that situation, i would obviously try to not claim in a way that
- removes my ability to actually freely use my janitor
- gets me lynched by people who are paranoid of janitors

Which they didn't (and you guys wonder why I haven't been able to do anything).
I think I see your problem. I feel like you could have not posted the 'the venmar X varsoon exchange is garbage' because it didn't help anyone see they were town for it, and it helped people to scum read you when you were town. (Not that I would scumread you for that, it was the SK who pushed you based on a *wall* argument lol) Basically, you leaked fuel for others to attack you, and it was entirely town as you have seen. Less is more. You say you do much better at replacing in, and that shows that you need to improve your early game. I also think you could cut out what you say in the quote and other similar things, seems passive aggressive. It reminds me of writing advice, cut out the filler, only leave things that progress the story. Would this statement really be necessary to progress the game? (IE: Lynching your scum reads)

That's why I like to have short posts. The more I say, the more chances I give for others to misunderstand me. Do remember that communication between two people is a cycle of *Think > Speak > Listen > Think > Speak*. Meaning, you think something, so you say what you think you mean, and that comes out as some form of noise that the second person has to decipher, and yet doesn't exactly know what you mean simply from what you say. All this to say that, it's damn easy to misunderstand someone and the more words you give the easier it is to find something stupid from what you were saying and you are like 'why do people misinterpret what I'm saying in this way'. (Cuz I'm saying so much that they have so much leeway to mess it all up)

Of course, it seems in the past people feel I care way more about my image then I should, but it's something I kind of have to do otherwise if I just don't filter myself same thing would happen to me because i'm scatterbrained. Also, I will agree that some of the reasons for people to scum read you were dumb lolclaim. Some were based on your interaction, and I think people generally just don't like it when a person goes 'but what you did was even more bad then what I did' so I think if you just cut those things out and just explain yourself clearly you'll do better. Also if you are gonna push a wall garbage argument, push for short and nice clean posts at the same time. It would be more pro-town. :D

presentation means very little if town don't actively decide to search for these conclusions themselves. the thinking was very linear and one dimensional, displaying almost a bit of a mob mentality by townies. definitely the reactive play hurt along with the way he came across as he spilt his guts, but it certainly does matter how right you are if town doesn't even consider it. as town, i think you should constantly be reevaluating.

having short posts, so you can't be misrepresented is silly lol. you should always make posts that you know you can explain the thought process behind logically, emotionally, and anything in between. any post that puts you at a disadvantage shouldn't be made, short or not.

on that note, calling interactions garbage is far from scummy lol.

that's like saying wars could be avoided with a google slides powerpoint in which every leader attends.

it's possible, but sometimes it's harder to do so when townies are locked in a specific mindset. everyone has had times where you've tried everything to get your scumread pushed for it not to happen. it is the one pushing the scumread who the burden of proof falls on, but it also on town to cooperate and keep strong and evaluate every decision and action within the thread.

could the presentation been better? yeah. could town have tried looking like level 3 into mathdino and his reads? also yeah. in a mafia sweep, it's very likely the fault of everyone involved :p
