Man this really feels like just dousing an entire master-mind scum agenda to one particular early game trajectory and I think that even if infinity is scum; that it's unlikely those posts were him planning ahead that far.In post 185, Leonshade wrote:For scum!Infinity, townreading people on the same wagon as you is getting an out for your townread (me flipping town) without explicitly giving himself an out. It does not help push my lynch, it helps him look less scummy, by giving townreads, while allowing him to discard those reads if he needs to lynch someone he previously townread.
Does everyone from pre-2014 scumhunt like a robot or is Leon just scum guys? Because his posts on his page are leaving me conflicted.-

I know when I am away at work, I like to come home and work on the game and I feel more connected to the activity is someone actively remembers me. So I think there is nothing wrong with leaving things open that we want people to comment on. Personally I would like to hear from the quieter people, while voting them is probably not helpful, leaving discussion points open for them to chase is wise.
And can people be "quiet" less than 24 into the fray? I say nay.-

Examples please.In post 256, Seraphim wrote:I do think Lucian is trying a little too hard to appear funny and intelligent but the scumhunting is real.
Mostly a gut thing here but I'm having a lot of friction "trying on" this thought process myself. And I think coupled with the essential "this person is posting meaningless or uncontentful things" that I ALWAYS see scum push definitely supplements that.In post 256, Seraphim wrote:The other player I'd be down to lynch is Zach. His posts are a bunch of one line responses to other players which demonstrates a lack of pro-town motivation. Also, subconscious scumtell is perhaps one of the funniest things I've read on this site in a game. Just kidding. It's not funny. It's meaningless. I'm being sarcastic.
The last few lines I initally thought were okay tonally but at a second glance seems actually a bit more overdone and tilts it back towards fake and trying to give off a lightness instead of just actually being light if that makes any sense to anyone.-

Where?In post 287, Impoetic wrote:it was due to some filler comment that implied he was town and looked really innocent but which I felt was possibly showing his interest in being TRd rather than scumhunting. All my reads were pretty weak at that point since it was page 3 so the tells were kinda stupid.

So then why bother to scumhunt?
^ergo just play as you normally would, just keep in mind that it might change
Pedit: everyone knows that scum can wifom. Why bother saying it now?
I'd lean scum on this if anything because I doubt anyone's played a good game of mafia with scum -> town conversion and it comes off a bit fake as a result but most of his other stuff didn't feel malicious or anything so meh.-

And thinking about it again it also helps if we mislynch today that scum wont have an easy time predicting who was given the PR unless they get it.
And maybe it's also a bit of me trying to shift away from this site meta of "let's townread everything because FEELGOODVIBES for the entire duration of the dayphase and scumread everyone lackadaisically who's un-charismatic and doesn't have time to sit around and shitpost all day while slowly rolling them up a hill and off of a cliff into the lurker pit. Maybe.-

But okay I'll handhold for a moment; basically suzune's read on me isn't real.
I think it's a hyper glorification of regurgitated thoughts that were kinda-sorta already in thread based on surface level things that don't make any sense when you look at it from a "is she analyzing motivation" standpoint.
Like:
From jump I didn't put pressure on Leon "because semantics" like right away this tells me that she's lacking context or just trying to spin scum motive to a thing that she doesn't care about understanding.In post 130, Suzune wrote:The jump to Leon's wagon was unusual. Their reason is semantics however it is not mentioned what part of it is the problem, leaving it quite a vague reason for the jump and when pushed about it. They instead direct them back to their vote post, which seems kind of odd because at that point it in the game much had already transpired so grapes could have gone into their feeling on his semantics rather then redirect.
What went down was basically:
I was initially skeeved by copper's push because while I did have a minor gut churn on Leon's entrance I thought the way he attacked him was scummy because I didn't really see an answer to the question in 28 i think it was that would've been all that alignment indicative becauseno shit why wouldn't you wanna lynch scumbut when he developed it shortly after he put into words similarly enough what my gut was feeling about leon's entrance as well so I saw where he was coming from a lot better.
And that's... more or less what I said in the post where I voted. So I think my response to inspectorscout was pretty justified because he asked me essentially "why are you voting leon > copper"-

Which is also reminiscent of some moonlogic-y things I've seen suzune read people for as scum.
Like "why did you tell this person to go reread your post you should have spilt your guts all over the thread about something you could have anddidclear up with 3 words -- you're scum.
Doesn't feel like someone trying to figure me out.-

But I think there's a decent chance that scum!impo would just accept the townread for what it was, so yeah
I knew a guy who was all about the "questioning reads on yourself" thing being a super reliable scumtell but like with most "scumtells" the thought process works the other way too apparently.-

Because all too many times I've seen scum pull the "why is everyone talking about this person they haven't done anything yet" and it's a thing I do as scum to try and plant things that look like buddy associations while not really saying anything or committing to a read on a person and also subtly get on people's good side yada yadaIn post 298, Impoetic wrote:Why are you shivering, grapes?-

Usually when I think something is light I mean it is fluffy. It does not mean a lot, lacking in depth.-

In post 331, inspectorscout wrote:Yes. ''I wanna see where this goes'' is not a valid reason if you are voting someone else for a more valid reason.
Okay thank you for letting me know I'm good to go to ignore you the rest of the game.In post 334, inspectorscout wrote:But wagons on town are likelier to get scum acceleration. Including ''scum can be wagoned as well if its a fast one'' is therefore untrue. I think thats why copper was 'eh' rather than the fact you want to include that option. At least, thats what made me say eh.
Actually kinda diggin this Leon post. Last sentence of the last line in particular.In post 332, Leonshade wrote:snip
Please hold.In post 335, copper223 wrote:@Grapes
You think it's not possible for Suzune to be genuine about her interpretation of your Leon vote, I can't rule that out so are there other instances where she is scum telling in your opinion?
Wait, why are overworded scumreads based on misinterpretations protown again? Like call it null if anything but townreading suzune for that just seems kinda :/In post 338, inspectorscout wrote:Grape: no clue. Their scumread on suzune is shit because i actually found those statements protown and we are still waiting for an answer as to why those posts are scummy. Why they tried to get back to my post 43 in their post 317 is a mystery to me.
Also I was engaging impoetic about what seemed like a decent way to gauge if they're reads were genuine by prying into what at the time was her only non-stagnant read. The reply was kinda vague with the "he was trying to come off as town somewhere" so I pointed out a post of yours I thought it could be in reference to.
I think that it's harder for scum to fake genuine read changes (or like back and forth stream of conciousness catch ups) and I'm looking forward to where they followed up with that in the pages to come because nobody ever gets questioned on nitpicky things like that and if the reasoning looks good and the read shift was based on what I think it was based on then I'm thinking impo is more likely to be town.
Like, sit down and actually read shit through before you post dude and the thread will have less noise.
Was feeling good about this frog post right up until the end.In post 344, frog wrote:@JaeReed: would you like to do something with your vote on grapes?
Mostly because it's hard to tell what his read on me is going by this; and not sure what this question would achieve for him as a result regardless of answer.
-
post 350 is a scumclaim.
VOTE: Scout
Precisely that entire wall feels like scum talking to town to me.
Like as town if I'm gonna wall to shit all over a case then I'm either gonna OMGUS you to mars and back or just realize you're bad at the game and read you as town but he doesn't really do much with the response in that regard.
-
Impoetic's posts this page feel kinda directionless and don't ever see town motivation in devoting a wall to defending someone from a push when it really hasn't come to fruition yet. Looks like busywork because there's a lot of going against the grain on people's reads that I don't recall her like making it a point of prominently standing for at any point.
Also please respond to my question about scout yea?
This in particular I didn't like. Copper came at my push from a town POV and I'll go more into this later once I get a chance to take a better look at suzune's reaction to it but this again feels less like genuine inquiry and more like a "what can i post to come off as town" and possibly (and this is probably reaching) attempt to muddy down reactions to said push.In post 372, Impoetic wrote:What do you mean? If it's developing, you have something already, right? Where are you at with Suzune? I've been lost with her because honestly I was kind of reading her on autopilot at the beginning and ATM I'm having trouble getting anything from the grapes/suzu skirmish so it would be nice to hear your perspective if you have anything to say on it right now.
Like I think town impoetic (who is townreading copper to my memory) doesn't question this witholding judgment with sort of a "why aren't you commenting on this" tone and is more likely to realize that things still need to happen first.
In post 379, Dunnstral wrote:what are you even doing inspectorscout
Not super impressed with dunn all that much so far like. Not really scumreading him but I don't think he's done anything even remotely un-fake-able so like the entire game just sorta being cool with tossing him in their town pile has got me wary.In post 380, Dunnstral wrote:You voting infinity then sorta backpedaling was kind of suspicious????
And these two posts rubbed me a bit wrong like im trying to see what his goal in posting them was and i think scout's vote on infinity after voting lucian wasn't even close to the biggest thing you could call him out for.
So from this; thinking that it's very safe to call her initial push a misunderstanding regardless of alignment, which is a start.In post 384, Suzune wrote:snap-

She always has really strange reasoning for reads. But when she's scum it's always way more out there. Like we rolled scum together a while ago and I think she townread me forIn post 428, LucianRoy wrote:It's not uncommon, but if you really do think this is different, (as I've said before, I'm not familiar with Suzune' current scum meta), then how do you think this differs from her standard town play?reading the threadif you want a quick example. When she's town her reads are based more on whimsical things that if you stop and think about it for a minute you can see where she's coming from.
I don't quite understand the unvote, though. Especially if she still thinks I'm scum and doesn't have a better place for it.
And while she admitted to being wrong she like continued to argue the same point within the same post so I'm like???
Are you trying to appease but also don't wanna get caught out on flipping around a read?
I came on a lot more confident in than I was and that might've watered down what I was trying to do a bit; and I need to see what direction she goes as far as scumreads or voting on an actual viable wagon to solidify it more.-

Like when someone presents a case on you I think regardless of what your read on them was up until that point their push is gonna sway that read somewaht and most of scout's replies contained very little "oh is this guy pushing me scum/town" and just a lot of shutting it down like I didn't get a feeling out vibe from his end of the exchange.
Just like full no holds barred discredit mode.-

People are voting grapes.In post 537, Impoetic wrote:Everyone scumleans grapes but no one is voting them is that AI help
Predit: OK
And no.
This is fair I think?In post 543, frog wrote:Sure, I can have a go. I'm finding it a little hard to get a handle on grapes, hence the 'slight', but I am considering whether that is something he is making difficult deliberately. If I'm reading post #71 right then grapes is proposing not releasing some of his townreads, and there's also something off about post #320, in which he makes out a mislynch to be attractive. The problem is that this might not only not be alignment indicative, but from grapes' posting so far those posts may not even be serious. I have no issue with the Suzune vote, and the misreading on the part of those who have a stronger read on grapes isn't convincing me either.
Like it's wrong but I can see where you're coming from.
I don't want my stronger townreads being sucked into the void so I thought keeping them pocketed day 1 and focusing on scumhunting exclusively would be a better way to go about things. I guess I can kinda see the scum motive in that? But thinking about it why would I handicap myself of one of my favorite scum tools? Townreading peeps/creating allies and whatnot. At any rate, if do think a townblock will be the best way to go about the teams thing, especially if there's a neighborhood aspect (which is kinda what im guessing but who knows it's a bastard game) We get the most mileage out of something like that in a scum free environment. So that's not even a thing I'm gonna consciously worry about anymore.
I'm always serious.
And a mislynch obviously wouldn't be attractive I just thought that would be another upside in the event of a mislynch if we keep scum in the dark about who the obvtowns are but meh.
This is actually weird because I've been told that as town I don't towntell AT ALL.In post 546, Impoetic wrote:Personally I initially townleaned grapes but in retrospect view them as potential scum focused on towntelling for the frowny face bout in response to being scumread, the suzune SR that hasn't been pushed, and generally dropping in to do things that I think would be ideal things to fake as scum and idrk explanations are hard. But I wouldn't vote grapes just yet.
Maybe it's because I've started taking mafia less seriously over the past year? Who knows.
And do you not think what I've posted wrt to suz can be considered pushing or?

(btw grapes does not condone hitting children)
I feel like you could have just said. "like his suzune read"In post 601, JaeReed wrote:TR on Seraph started at the vote on Suzune as I could see where that was likely to come from. They later clarified in post 256 and it was a lot along the same thought process that I had imagined it would be at the time, as I also thought Suzune had a fair amount of posts where it pinged me for trying to appear busy. I found that Suzune's posting at that time had a lot of questions that wouldn't produce anything alignment indicative.
And now it's my tone.In post 601, JaeReed wrote:That said, the moment I thought about switching votes over, you came in with an awful tone and I remembered why I was scumreading you strong enough for a vote in the first place.
Brb rolling my eyes a thousand times.
Oh yea and 610 is about where I left off reading; not sure if I mentioned how entirely irked I am that it doesn't contain a vote on scout.-

This could be apathetic scum for obvious reasons but meh.In post 687, Leonshade wrote:Though nothing's really happened in the last few pages to change any of my reads. Maybe I'll read Infinity's town meta later, don't have the energy right now.
I like 691 from zach. Don't think it's a good case and there's hella reaching with stuff like saying that Leo subconsciously knew frog was scum for example.
But scum don't make sloppy impromptu pushes like that. Lol
Oh nevermind then. I thought that post was pretty null.In post 694, Impoetic wrote:
I never did follow up @GrapesIn post 56, inspectorscout wrote:If im a poker card, definitely town-direction
this was the post. I was being stupid. At the time I was thinking, "Why is he so concerned with his own alignment?"
That's fair because like I said the initial push wasn't entirely genuine on my part to begin with.In post 699, Impoetic wrote:That is actually weird because I townread you again; does that make you scum? Also I didn't remember you following up on the frowns + vote when I said that, but upon reading your ISO it is a bit of a push. My point was more that the whole confrontation felt halfhearted to me, or at least that was how I remembered it.
And I like inherently attribute softness to pushes that aren't CAPSLOCK flooding the thread telling everyone to vote someone; townreading everyone who does and either ignoring or also scumreading everyone who doesn't.
Only true way to get scum lynched these days.-

It didn't change at all but got stronger. Okay.In post 700, inspectorscout wrote:@grapes 674: i read copper as town before the case. I read the case as him being town and genuinely believing what he wrote. The case was shit, but the way he talks back to me is town. The way he asks players questions and follows up on them is town. My read on him did not change. Why would i mention my read on him if it didnt change? If anything it got stronger by a little bit.
The reaction didn't leave me with that impression.
And I dunno man thinking about it again would I have been more skeeved if the entire tone of your reply was taking his alignment for granted like it was or if you had shoehorned in a lot of forced little nuances of / /
Either way I feel like you're trying to talk me out of a read here and if you're town the better way to do that would be to talk about your scumreads more and less about my read on you.
Well I think some of his stuff has been scummy. It's not like I'm pushing to PL the guy.In post 701, Impoetic wrote:one thing I disagreed with was the sera comment. I don't get how not posting equates to being a good lynch at this point in time -- especially after you made that side-comment about changing your icon and all that ;p
And lighting a fire under someone's ass is a good way to inspire more content and get a better gauge.-

I doubt anyone will see me play that way again.
I'm aggressive because I get off on lynching my scumreads and that's harder when you're passive.In post 752, JaeReed wrote:I might be misremembering for my tonal read. I just really hate the aggressive tone here. Every time I start thinking I find someone else scummy, he posts with that tone and I instantly go back to wanting him roped. Like the hand holding comment early on pinged me massively. I didn't like his attitude regarding Suzune's vote on him, either.
I also don't see what's AI about being a bit condescending, especially when I already went over it was for reactions. Like fucksake are you reading the thread?-

I sorta dislike how the sera/suzune reads come and go in tandem here.In post 838, Infinity 324 wrote:So basically, what sera was saying was accurate for a lot of suzune's ISO and I was too quick to call it scum rather than looking back and seeing if it was true. Suzune has done a good job of trying to look busy, but when you try to describe what she's actually done in terms of scumhunting, you'd be hard-pressed to find much.
Mostly stems from not really seeing all that sharp a dynamic between them that would allow infinities paranoia as town to auto-read the situation of the early pushes naturally as TvS enough to omit that from here entirely.
...Gonna double check if his initial sera read was actually entwined with his suzune read this much because if it is this narrative is actually mostly forgivable.-

I kinda like suzune broadening her horizons a bit more wrt to players who she's actually analyzing but this is a pretty surface level takeaway from zach's post methinks.In post 847, Suzune wrote:These comparisons posts really ping me the wrong way.
I was looking for more of like, what points did you specifically find were good.In post 849, Suzune wrote:I thought the case was strong because it laid out their thinking and how they had reached their conclusion. This clues me into how they are examining the game and that allows for me to understand their point of view. Therefore, I found the case to hold some water.
You think I'm scum - you're currently not voting - there's a wagon on me.Suzune wrote:Simple. I unvoted because the main reasoning behind my feelings was based on unfounded and incorrect facts. While I still have a lurking suspicion that you are scum, at the point I unvoted I had nothing to substantiate the claim meaning that I could not keep my vote their under good faith. I argued the same point because you seemed to imply that where I drew the reasoning from was made up. While the information I used to make my read was clearly there. I do not like being called a liar when I used the material that was presented. While you did not like the claim I made because it did not reflect your mindset at the time, that does not give you cause to say that it was unsubstantiated.
Why aren't you voting me?
