UNVOTE:

I can't understand anything tazaro is writing and it's already annoying. maruchan reading and commenting on only half the thread to then come back 20 minutes later and answer a brand new question is ehh. gamma purposefully talking in riddles is also rather annoying.

Who is scum?
Does this post forward a scum win con, or do you just think I'm strange?

Why wouldn't you use your vote to push someone in order to develop a read?

I'm leaning town on maru for discussing contentious stuff without having had the opportunity to read everything.
Taz and Simeon are the easy lynches
kitten seems alright for now

VOTE: jay
Is 'jay' "biceph bob speak" for gamma (emerald)?
This concerns me because later he's talking about how he's read the thread enough but he doesn't know there's a player in the game named Jay. The interaction you and simeon talked about is equally weird. and like I said, 118 to 123, I don't even understand what he's trying to say so I'd appreciate some clarification there.

predit: well I sat down to read the thread 10 minutes ago so how about you just let me go through my process. also add 129 to the list of posts I dont' understand.

TBF, it's not like Jay has posted in, like, ever.

yeah. that didn't stop me from figuring it out in less than 30 seconds.

lets talk about your push on simeon. You're voting him because he wouldn't explain his push or something else?

Pre-ninja:
I didn't recollect someone named Jay posting in this thread, and coincidentally I looked at a list the mod gave and may have not spotted JayLow which contributes to not remembering, but it's clear there is a JayLow to me now, but still he hasn't posted so he dropped off my radar.
Post 129 (mine) looks pretty clear to me, but I wrote it, so it may be clearer to me in my bias toward myself

Who give a s*** about his push on Simeon when he clearly says it's for developing reads, not necessarily a consequence of scum radar.

And you wonder why I'm scumreading you?

Saying it CAN be used for a push absent reads does not mean that I am using MINE simply for a push.

Ok
I subconsciously was a bit angry because I was wondering if Micc was using discussion in a way of trying to pressure you into not doing what you were doing with respect to Simeon, when it does have a logic to it.

I did not think I was just confused back then (but I guess I realized back then that I was confused somewhere in the recesses of the back of my mind) and when I was thrown off guard by the name jay suddenly being mentioned by bob and couldn't remember a jay and then looked at a list perfunctorily and just did not happen to see his name, I kind of was like, oh it's bob who is actually the one who is confused in his posting. But no, I gave him the benefit of the doubt and thought that jay was kind of nicknaming with gamma (as if g could be j and there being a silent y in there somehow)
I was confused and did not piece things together right but i did ask be he did not answer so all i had was my stupid conclusion of what he might have had meant
sorry for that word salad. just trying to do the play by play

I care. I don't have a good feel for what direction to scum hunt atm moment. he seems like he does and I was getting town pings from his post so I want to give him a chance to say what he's thinking. If you don't care then don't listen. If I'm asking a specific question to him you don't have to answer and in a lot of cases id prefer you just don't answer.

I don't have a problem with him calling maruchan out for those things. I felt pretty similarly myself to be honest.

Pre-ninja: condensed version of my above word salad^: i thought I had a somewhat logical answer for why he said jay (I was like- jay who?), which was a name that did not ring a bell to me, and therefore dismissed for a while the possibility that I might be certainly confused.
Post ninja: that's fair what you said, i guess. See no problem with any of it when i analyze it. Stick to it.

Depends on the kind of crap it is.
