I'm not going to answer Grendel's questions and it would be best if no one else did either
The questions don't have enough (any?) of a direct tie to the current game for alignment to meaningfully appear in answers. *insert theory discussion of early game here* so RQS is basically the worst thing ever. Talking about it in general terms is also a bad thing though so etcIn post 23, Gamma Emerald wrote:Still why is it bad?
Having an icebreaker at the start of the game is worse than having nothing at the start of the game. It's more difficult for scum to find openings into the flow of the game in the early-going than it is for town.In post 30, Gamma Emerald wrote:@DRK the point of RQS is t necessarily to judge alignments. It's meant as an ice breaker mostly. And Grendel uses it to judge alignment early so your concern is somewhat moot.
I don't recall anyone objecting to RQS for theory reasons that game. My objection was the player was using RQS for townpoints.
How about the way I'm going about it? Does the fact that I'm being all abrupt to Gamma Emerald about it give you bad feelings about me? Does the fact that I have a tiny townread on Gamma Emerald weird you out?In post 32, Raya36 wrote:No... it's only page two of D1. Why are you asking me that?In post 29, DeathRowKitty wrote:Hi Raya do you think I'm scum?
(If you mean because you're against RQS than still no. I see where both sides are coming from around that.)
"Dignity"? Don't give me that nonsense. I'm not going to give you extra filler reasons because you won't accept the real ones.In post 35, Gamma Emerald wrote:I thought you had a new reason to object but this is the same as one I've seen beforeIn post 31, DeathRowKitty wrote:Having an icebreaker at the start of the game is worse than having nothing at the start of the game.

At least rb had the dignity to say it clogged the game up when I tried it with him
You're basically null. notsure did nothing but answer the RQS questions so there's nothing game-related to read from him in the first place. I am too blinded by my lifelong feud with Cheetory4 (he doesn't deserve to have a number as large as 6 after his name) to have any read on him but scumscumscum all the timetimetime.In post 37, Raya36 wrote:Since you're asking me what I think of you so early on it's only fair if I ask the same of you. Do you have any reads on me? Do you have any reads on anyone else?
Everything you just said is incredibly silly. Do you have any reads?In post 41, notsure wrote:Considering it's the start of the game, anything anyone does now can be interpreted in any way and is just WIFOM.
BUT if people start talking now, it gives a lot of interaction and behaviors that can be compared to later in the game. This is good for town. So DeathRowKitty, I don't see the value in not answering some simple RQS questions. Just as mafia could use your answers against you, so can town use it as a basis to judge you as Town and have a higher chance of finding mafia as the game progresses.
so whatever I guess.
I would expect you to be, but I've never played with you so ???In post 56, Cheetory6 wrote:DRK, do you think I'm hard to read when I'm trying?
Mmkay, you don't seem to have understood what I was saying, so let me try again.In post 59, notsure wrote:The more people talk, the more content TOwn has to work with in identifying potential mafia. What about that don't you understand?In post 44, DeathRowKitty wrote:You talk a lot about finding mafia and yet you seem to find find more value in answering non-game-specific questions than you do in discussing reads. Is interesting. Would you say that this utterly bizarre valuation is relevant to your alignment or is it a part of your views on mafia theory?
What about me seems scummy to you?
I realized after I did it that it wouldn't really accomplish what I intended, but the intention wasn't to pressure youIn post 62, Cheetory6 wrote:Can you talk at me about what you were hoping to accomplish here?
Like, did you think you were going to sort me by pushing me here and get something actually reliable out of it?
I refuse to believe that you are a real person sorryIn post 77, notsure wrote:@DeathRowKitty
I don't know why you are reading so heavily into me, like you want to paint me as mafia. Getting scummy vibes from you. But I don't really care about the questions Grendel asked; it's just to get the game rolling. And that's a good thing, instead of having people sitting in the side lines not doing shit. I mean, hey, look it got me posting and suddenly I'm getting a read on you, whether right or not, so there's it's value smarty pants.
Was a truly terrible post. Weird summary post with weird snipes at weird people. I considered following your vote onto him, but I don't expect him to be particularly active in the near future (he made that post and then didn't respond to anything said after it + i've had a rhyming alt and it's a tiny bit frustrating to ever post content while posting in rhyme tbh) and that would make a wagon on him a bit meh unless we plan on quicklynchingIn post 92, Grendel wrote:What do you think of Mutten's OP. It read as super detached from the games state. More like checking a box for required partipation then genuine content imo
I afk'd and thought about this (and then came back and looked back at the post) and I do think it's scummy weird. What jumped out at me from the post was the rather wide net he cast over my play and over Cheetory's, the weird framing of Cheetory's play, and the lack of accuracy in detail. While all of that could just be lazy scumhunting, it would have to beIn post 105, Accountant wrote:Yeah but I don't think it's scummy weird.In post 102, DeathRowKitty wrote:Weird summary post with weird snipes at weird people.
I think his choice to answer the questions and his choice to self-vote were both sub-optimal there, but I think both are well within the range of things a lot of newer players would do as either alignment and I don't find the combination of the two to be any greater than the sum of its parts. Null to meIn post 109, Accountant wrote:I'll think about this over lunch. Do me a favor and tell me what you think about Paul?
Eh, I tend to just completely write off "I don't think scum would do this" towntells when the person in question is angry.In post 227, Accountant wrote:I think notsure is town because he has this air of "I'm right fools and if you disagree you're just bad at mafia" that is both unnatural to a scum (who knows for sure that they are wrong and fake) and also very hard to fake.
What the actual flowery fluffernutter did you want me to say when I had read none of the game since my last post with content? What was your thought process when making this post?In post 668, SlingshotWaffles wrote:In post 666, DeathRowKitty wrote:There are 17 new pages since I last read stuff in this game and I kind of hate all of you for that.

I looked up this game and I didn't read almost any of his posts but I did notice that he used RQS in that gameIn post 888, PenguinPower wrote:*sigh* I modded scum gamma recently. That behavior wasn't present.
if you would like to explain this one i will legitimately think it over but not actually do anything about it because i've been intentionally avoiding reading cheetIn post 902, Not_Mafia wrote:The more I read the more I think Cheet is scum
It's terrible, but is it scum-terrible? I can't imagine someone of either alignment saying it at all really. And yet he did. But what could he have been thinking that would have made him say it?
Let us know when you find one
