@WB, what about my posts you highlighted in 192 strikes you as scummy? I'm just not really understanding whatever case you're making against me. You say I'm playing "safe" but so what?

You said those posts were examples of why you were scum reading me, but right before (and I missed this line before) you say the reasons don't hold much weight anymore. So I dunno, kinda confusing me.

I worded the end of that post really poorly. The scumread doesn't hold weight anymore because I think you're town because my initial reasons to scumread you can be explained (I can attribute what I consider scummy behavior to actually be play that lines up with what you've said)

Because Treblesome had pushed him on it and he wanted to defend his stance but didn't really want to re-evaluate his position, so he took the out that it was a reaction test. Why do you think he would do it as town?
You keep saying reaction test, why the hell you lying?

I mean, if something doesn't look like it comes from town or tryharding scum then Occam's Razor says it comes from lazy scum sure. All cases are based on scum not playing perfectly, because if they played perfectly they would look town.

I mean all of the above. It sounds like you threw out an explanation for your early suspicion of Mario to distance yourselves from others who were skeptical of him (i.e. Jason). Then when you were pressed on it you couldn't go in enough depth to make it look like it was something you really believed or had thought through.

It was how I justified it. The reason I haven't invested into that vote is because I don't believe it to hold that much weight anymore.

Posts like those below have been somewhat of an explanation to most of my initial reasons to scumread her:

-snip-
I can understand the read changing. My problem with is the distancing you do from the vote at the same time with stuff like "Nothing personal" or the going through your reads on other people to make it seem like PoE. Neither of those seem necessary from a town PoV (if anything town wants people to think they're pushing them harder than they actually are to get reactions) but are useful for scum who wants to seem like they're doing something without actually committing.
In post 196, Writers Bloque wrote:This is what I thought you meant but I already addressed this when you asked me about it before.

You act like I took a hardline stance on Zulfy then 180'd. It's not the case. You've said you know I wasn't calling him scum with that initial post. All things considered you can't even get anything AI from our interaction and my "backing off". You have to stretch something a little.
No the reversal is that in you threatened Zulfy with rope if he didn't keep posting. And then later you say you're not okay with someone's vote being on Zulfy. How is he going to be "sat down permanently" without any votes on him? I don't know what the scum motive is here but it looks pretty blatantly inconsistent to me.
In post 196, Writers Bloque wrote:? You act like I put you as lock scum. Even you said I outlined why that doesn't really mean anything, and I said you weren't someone I was genuinely pushing especially since you explained your thought processes.
I'm not quite sure how to parse this.

@WB - why didn't you vote for me in ? All the posts which you said caused you to TR Gingham had been made by that point so it doesn't seem like you had any real reason to keep your vote there. I see no town motive to saying "I wanted to vote you too" at that point without actually following through.


Keep 'em coming Writers. I can do this all week.

I agree with you that it looks like he changed his justification to an extent after the fact. I misinterpreted your original case and thought you were solely voting him for his early push not his comments on it afterwards. Its enough to give Jason a light SR. But Writers needs to die first.

This is so general though and you're applying it right here. Your position basically started off as you were trying to sort me and my responses were unsatisfactory for some reason so basically it boils down to me not explaining properly or you having another problem. LET'S GET INTO THAT:

In post 183, Sobolev Space wrote: Something about their posts keep gut pinging me and their responses to my questions haven't been enough to convince me their content isn't faked.
This is a really ambiguous statement. At the time the implication to me here was you either have a vague read or a very specific one. Wait.. I guess we know what it is now, because once we started engaging, you literally now have several "reasons" to SR me in the post above. Like you picked "all of the above" multiple choice reasons to scumread us. If we were actually that scummy you wouldn't have made such a vague open to interpretation post here. It literally looks like you were trying to sort me (with the questions), this post here says that something is unclear, the correct procedure should be to interact with me to clarify what specifically is wrong with my posts. But it looks like you just doubled down as to not reverse your stance and put me as scum. I said before it reads like you were setting up to push me. Like you questioned me, I just answered the questions. It appears you had a problem with HOW I answered the questions, but rather than press that specifically, you just skip over that entire step and put me as scum. I don't feel like you actually sorted.

1. "It sounds like you threw out an explanation for your early suspicion of Mario to distance yourselves from others who were skeptical of him (i.e. Jason)."

discredit. This is clearly a unique setup, the first thing I expect someone to do is not "hey lets massclaim who were in a hood with". Even if it's a nonissue that's not what a entrance should be imo. But I asked him and he clarified his thought process. I literally found something out. It looks like you're trying to fake doing that. Did you just call this distancing? lol

2. "Then when you were pressed on it you couldn't go in enough depth to make it look like it was something you really believed or had thought through."

"Appear a certain way or you're scum!" is what I read here. Literally nothing specific that I can respond to or clarify in capacity. If a motive is unclear you question it.. why push?

Posturing? Your scumread on us literally went from 0-1000 lol.. you literally say "Writers needs to die" At the end of your post and completely abandon Zulfy vote lmaoo. COMPLETE contrast from your own #183

see at best our scumread on you probably went from like...... 40.. to 100.....

I said that cause Gingham said "where your fascination with me comes from" like I was really tunneling her LMFAO. She said half my posts in the game at that point were about her, which isn't true. At that point in time 7/18 of my posts mentioned or replied to her. Not even tunnel. I was attempting to sort.

This looks like a big change in attitude to me. I get that you weren't calling him scummy in but it still seems like you've reversed your opinion on him deciding to 'sit out'. Why?
No way around this. The clear implication was that you knew I wasn't calling him scummy, yet by directly saying
Sobolev Space wrote:

So if I threatened him with rope I must have thought he was scum. Except you knew that's not what I was doing.

I think Mario thought I had a genuine scumread on him at that point when really I thought what he did was scummy but I'm on the level with what he thought once he said something so that's why I said that.

I haven't played with him before either. My vote on him started as semi-RVS but out of all the lurkers I liked his posts the least so I'm keeping it there until he gets replaced/does something.

Like you picked "all of the above" multiple choice reasons to scumread us. If we were actually that scummy you wouldn't have made such a vague open to interpretation post here. It literally looks like you were trying to sort me (with the questions), this post here says that something is unclear, the correct procedure should be to interact with me to clarify what specifically is wrong with my posts. But it looks like you just doubled down as to not reverse your stance and put me as scum. I said before it reads like you were setting up to push me. Like you questioned me, I just answered the questions. It appears you had a problem with HOW I answered the questions, but rather than press that specifically, you just skip over that entire step and put me as scum. I don't feel like you actually sorted.
But like I did press you specifically on that. See for example posts , , , , , as one interaction. When you're asked twice "when should mario have brought that up" and the only answer you give both times is "well not at the start" its time to stop pressing the point because we're getting nowhere. Like idk how long you think I need to keep asking you questions before I can just call you scum.

discredit. This is clearly a unique setup, the first thing I expect someone to do is not "hey lets massclaim who were in a hood with". Even if it's a nonissue that's not what a entrance should be imo. But I asked him and he clarified his thought process. I literally found something out. It looks like you're trying to fake doing that. Did you just call this distancing? lol
You asking him questions and him clarifying them though is tangential to the part where you said your only problem is he had to start out with it. Like you can do one without the other. By distancing I meant that you were trying to not be lumped in with the others pushing him, not that you're partners with jason lol.
In post 211, Writers Bloque wrote:2. "Then when you were pressed on it you couldn't go in enough depth to make it look like it was something you really believed or had thought through."

"Appear a certain way or you're scum!" is what I read here. Literally nothing specific that I can respond to or clarify in capacity. If a motive is unclear you question it.. why push?
Lol I did question it?

She said half my posts in the game at that point were about her, which isn't true. At that point in time 7/18 of my posts mentioned or replied to her. Not even tunnel. I was attempting to sort.
I don't see how trying to give your vote as little weight as possible helps you sort.

You act like I took a hardline stance on Zulfy then 180'd. It's not the case. You've said you know I wasn't calling him scum with that initial post. All things considered you can't even get anything AI from our interaction and my "backing off". You have to stretch something a little.
No the reversal is that in you threatened Zulfy with rope if he didn't keep posting. And then later you say you're not okay with someone's vote being on Zulfy. How is he going to be "sat down permanently" without any votes on him? I don't know what the scum motive is here but it looks pretty blatantly inconsistent to me.
and now a word from our sponsors

This looks like a big change in attitude to me. I get that you weren't calling him scummy in but it still seems like you've reversed your opinion on him deciding to 'sit out'. Why?
No way around this. The clear implication was that you knew I wasn't calling him scummy, yet by directly saying

So if I threatened him with rope I must have thought he was scum. Except you knew that's not what I was doing.
That's
inconsistent. Are you not contradicting your stance?
No I don't think you thought Zulfy was scum in . I think you were threatening him with rope to try to get him to post. That's literally the same reason I kept my vote there. Although I didn't especially like his two posts they weren't enough to merit a serious scumread. Yet you turn around later and say that you're not okay with people's votes being on Zulfy.
That's
the contradiction.

You're creating an issue where there is none.
I mean I don't see why town would keep their vote on somebody they TR when they have another legitimate scumread. What that looks like to me is scum trying to remain flexible. If I went after you hard you could switch your vote to me and 1v1 (as we're doing now) but if I decided to drop the issue you could just let it stay an offhand comment and move on with the game without being tied down to a strong scumread.

Re: the repeated claim that I went from "0 to 1000" on WB. Let me give y'all a brief chronology of my read on WB. Early game: WB posts some stuff I find weird. I question some of it (like the mario timing question or the Zulfy thing) but don't overtly call WB scum. During this time I did mention in both my neighborhoods that I find WB a little scummy (my neighbors can confirm this if necessary) but I'm trying to question them first to sort. I mention I have a scumread on WB but am keeping my vote on Zulfy for now. WB mentions their scumread on me but doesn't vote me. I find their not voting me scummy enough to merit a vote and an overview of why I find them scummy. I question them on why they didn't vote me (spoiler alert: this question goes unanswered until I ask it again. But remember, according to WB I'm scum because I immediately start pressing them instead of questioning their motives). WB poorly responds to my case marking the official start of this 1v1. Anyway thats my read progression. It should be pretty clear that I did not go from "0 to 1000" as WB is claiming.


Anyways its time to start coalescing around a lynch. Obviously I would prefer WB but am also willing to hop on Jason's slot if WB isn't gaining traction. Its pretty sad that we have 3 slots that have contributed basically nothing but they won't be in my lynch pool today unless they either (a) fail to deliver on the promised catch-ups or (b) look exceedingly scummy in their catch up posts.

Just checked and I actually only mentioned my scumread on WB in one neighborhood. In the other I made an early game comment along the lines of "I'm interested in seeing how WritersBloque answers my questions before deciding on my read on them".

I don't really care to read Zach or SS's walls right now, but I agree SS feels pretty scummy. Her input before this big push on us is very reserved and non-accusatory. The questions aimed at our slot over Zach's concern with MM's entrance is nit picky. It doesn't commit her to a read on our slot, but can be used to segue into a sr if she sees something she think we can run with. The only thing giving me pause is that the game was practically dead before this argument. I'll read it after some sleep.

It's also a shame that I didn't get to post before Tanya replaced out.

This post is really bad. You left your read on Mario up in the air, so it reads like a buddying attempt at JW.
