Also when I say that's exactly the kind of thing you say about your partners as scum, I mean it's exactly the way that you scum-theater/semi distance-but-buddy, and that it's the kind of statement that you think of specifically from a scum point of view trying to throw us off the scent

Lingering post catch up questions and responses:
  • @Keyser
    Why did me scum reading you for the first 8 pages make you want to scum read/re-evaluate my slot? What would be the scum train of thought to do something like that?
  • @eragon
    I had forgotten what the flips were while I was catching up early because it had to be spread out over so many sessions; I didn't have much of a read on e's posts at that point w/o knowing the flip.
  • @NSG
    You were only first on the wagon at that time because others (including keyser and irrelephant) had voted but unvoted
  • @irrelephant
    Irrelephant, is TW's explanation for your post the theory you meant?

    Reundo where did you go day 2 :< :< :< I was so happy with that town read but you can't just rest on your laurels buddy

In post 999, Toranaga wrote:nauci is town as fuck
i'm liking the meta reads much more for town than the catch-up posts honestly, although i'm still not sure how actually town-indicative they are - after all, meta reads are pretty factual; it's a lot of just straight up pointing to evidence and a lot less of your own personal take on things, so they can come from town or scum equally as often. i think as scum (at least, in one game) i used meta reads as a crutch to avoid having to give real reads (not to say that i don't use meta a lot as town or that you should take it as a scumtell - don't do that.)

in terms of why i didn't like the catch-up posts for town, it's because they reminded me a lot of a scumgame i played on a secret alt once where if you just sort of read through the thread and react to a lot of posts it comes out as just a lot of words which people are inclined to towntell

and also i still haven't seen
The Tell
assuming that
The Tell
is what i think it is.

i'm not making any comment specifically on the context of this game, but moreso this as an idea in general

i think a good case study for why what you're saying here may not necessarily always hold true and should definitely be re-examined come later days (or today; nothing says you have to wait) is Mini Normal 1996, which i modded. early on day 1 pretty much the entire scumteam got caught - that is, at different points throughout the day all of them had major wagons start to form on them. they recognized this, and as a strategy decided to immediately all turn against eachother and hardbus. scum got lynched day one, but going down he made his partners look really good by contributing to their wagons. the scumteam didn't even know for which of them the lynch would actually go through on, but no matter who it was they would turn out looking good.

and so that's exactly what happened, scum got cleared from associations for a few days before i think some role shenanigans brought it back for town.

my main takeaway from that game was that a scumteam that's caught early on might turn on itself as a strategy, pushing one person down to raise the rest of them up. there was actually a time where i was considering making a "reminders / advice / 'words of wisdom' " section on my wiki and including that there, but i never got around to it.

anyways, that just reminded me of that thing that i had been thinking about for a while but never really had a chance to say.

there's no way to tell if a conversation will end up being alignment-indicative before you start it. thus, your point that i'm "wasting words" on something NAI holds no water. once i realized that i didn't really find GNB scummy for his viewpoint and stated that, i pretty much dropped the conversation
except only
when
other people
brought it up.
In post 1044, Toranaga wrote:again. this is GNB's nonread all over again. she is voting dunnstral without talking about him at all in any meaningful way, and then starts going over... commas? and if he is now talking in commas, so what? is that anything indicative? why is she not talking about her actual scumread? why are the things NSG points out so blatantly not scummy things at all?
shut up!! i'm never talking about the commas point again. i've already said everything there is to say about it.

don't care about responding to the rest

"not pushing" things is not scum indicative because that's who i am as a person. it's been a while since i've pushed something very hard. the only times i really push scumreads hard is on secret alts where i care less about being wrong and as such am less meticulous. obviously a meticulous style when i'm as busy as i am recently ends up being more of a lazy style as i put off things more and more (i.e. metadiving people), but that's who i am.

"oh no, she's not """progressing the gamestate!""""
want to know who isn't doing that but is also actually scum? dunnstral.

Your post reminds me of the game mhsmith post for his Test Your VCA Skills thread (it's a very very good thread; anyone who hasn't read it really ought to).

Also this is a vvv good post.
