Why am I being scum read again? Anyone actually buy the cases boring and Prism are presenting?
Yup and yup.

You guys are doing that thing again where you're projecting based on personality. Some people manipulate through cooperation, others, through hissy fits (AtE). Unless you guys know how Penguin plays, you have no way of knowing whether these weird tantrums are AI/NAI. Better to look at motivation.In post 2019, implosion wrote:Scum would be attempting to work with you and get on your side. Because. Ya know. They need to not die to win the game.
Which brings us to why meta is important.
It helps you sort between personality and pathology. It's easy to say that meta is crap when you don't know any of the players (or you want them to not meta-read you), but it has its value.In post 2010, Zoronos wrote:I think we're in meta land again kinda.

Quoting from the Traitor page on the Wiki: "(In Normal games, a Traitor) gives a 'guilty' result to Cops, an 'innocent' result to Gunsmiths, and a 'Traitor' result to Role Cops."
So possibly a mafia commuter.
No result = mafia

Posted: Mon Oct 24, 2016 9:42 amRegardless you need to be watched tonight.
I would suggest you check between[nn, Prism]
I'm still confident in my DF and Grendel town reads.

Posted: Mon Oct 24, 2016 9:53 amWait, did you get a No Result or an Innocent?
I am failing to understand why we're down the rabbit hole of commuters and ascetics here.

Also another thing I noticed, you seemed concerned about how you look. A few posts in your ISO if I recall you were frustrated at people for their reasoning for town reading you. It's as if you worried someone will go back and wonder why you're so widely town read by the majority.

I'm quoting both of our statements and showing that they're not the same thing. One is saying she was nitpicking about inconsistencies, the other is saying she is trying to find inconsistencies.

Then I guess I'm really unclear why we're on this tangent?

I still really think PP is town. LUV hasn't ever done anything particularly towny to me; I still just have a hard time reading him but I'm fine with him as a lynch (and happier with him than PP). The only thing that really gives me pause is that boring is voting him but associatives are bad etc.
So, Implosion -
I vaguely agree on the first point; specifically I agree with the notation of it being bad play for the same reason that anti-charismatic player is bad regardless of alignment. I think anti-charisma when not pressured is more anti-scummy than being acerbic when pressured (since there's more motivation to hide reasoning / to make engagement unpalatable). It was part of what lead me to initially town-read Gamma (specifically, Gamma was acerbic but without attaching a scum read to it. He just acted anti-charismatic for no gain).
But, can you talk to me about why you think PP is town? What are you seeing that I'm missing? Help me understand this one, because I can't get my head around a town PP here.
re: LUV
as I said earlier today, my boring suspicion remains moderate to high, so I'm vaguely uncomfortable with any train of which she is the voice.
Which I guess is a long way of saying, help me work through my boring read.
My boring read is stronger than my 'dumpster a person who is noncontributory / nonsensical' stance at the moment, so I'm not super comfortable swinging that direction. I get where you're coming from, but my hackles are too far up at Boring at the moment.
Posted: Mon Oct 24, 2016 12:30 pmSame.
Gamma's was a bold, straightforward claim that's not been CC'd. He softed a PR claim ahead of time, and his claim that implosion is town lines up with his play today. Granted, until Grendel's meta argument, I was Gamma was already leaning town for me, but even if I was scum leaning him (as I was implosion), I don't see why that would continue to hold now.
Maybe Shadow is pursuing these tangents because it would appear that Gamma and implosion were his primary scum reads today.

How about this: Help me lynch LUV. Then Day 3, you and I (and implosion too, if that's what we're into) can go into couples counseling together.

I am clearly out of practice on the most important of mafia skills.

We've had our scuffle so I guess it makes sense that you're scum reading me.
Why Prism though?

What's the motivation for PP calling me a liar?
Posted: Mon Oct 24, 2016 6:00 pmI'm too tired to figure out whether or not there is scum between Zoronos and Penguin.
I'll be happy with a LUV flip at this point.
VOTE: LUV
This is 1-L
@Mod I'm going to be out of action until Wednesday evening. So I guess that's V/LA for like 48+ hours?

I don't really see why that is motivated by one alignment over another.
