if ANYONE would be paying attention
they would know that I am being town

im paying attention! kinda
do you mean "am town" or "am being town"

Good observation.

[Ausuka]

like this honestly seems just as bad as creature's scumgame around when you could reliably read Creature off of his postcount

But, like, Baezu's scumgame just isn't as bad as Creature's used to be. And I think that Baezu is town.

Okay so let me expand on the meta point Dave made about Baezu. Baezu, as town, is usually massive lynchbait and says weird things with an awkward tone, but is kind of relaxed at the same time. Baezu, as scum, is stiff and feels much more purposeful, feeling more obligated to justify her regular vote-hops. She doesn't have literally no clue how to play scum, she's actually better than me at it. Her meta would definitely seem to apply here as the multiball game below was much more similar to her scumgames than her towngames. I'll give some examples and you can tell me if you disagree.

Towngames:

If you look at their ISO in this game it just feels so much more like town!Baezu. It reminds me of the first link especially.

I'm not sure what exactly you see in Baezu here anyway. You say that she's lurking and not doing anything. This is kind of fair but applies to a LOT of people in this game and I wouldn't even say she's the biggest culprit of this? Meta-wise, compare the second game, in which I asked her for a readlist twice and she didn't respond. In her scum games she is pretty surface-level helpful actually, making readlists, offering to answer questions, and also just asking questions generally. There's no towniness that jumps out in her ISO but I think that's normal and her casual tone is still towny for her.

Idk. I don't really think this will flip scum.

[Firebringer]

tldr.

[Almost50]

Fire look at their ISO
and think to yourself
"what about this ISO is like, town, like, at all"
then think to yourself
"

If I sucked at scum and didn't know how to play multiball, how would I play?

"
and then you'll realize that how baezu is playing is literally what I just described.

May I play devil's advocate for a second? The easy way out was to play the single ball setup and let S_S handle this one. EVEN if they had received 2 red PMs she probably would have picked the single ball to minimize the risks.

What even is the Baezu case that’s scummier to some than alisae?
I’ll catch up tomorrow

[Ausuka]

tldr.

Ok, I'll rephrase it succinctly.

This is Baezu's towngame, doesn't really resemble her scumgame, and the reason she looks surface-y scummy is because she's lynchbait and very difficult to read normally.

This almost never flips town.

F U I’m barely able to play and I caught you a scum
Get off my back and lynch alisae already

[insomnia]

Baezu is more likely to pick town I believe.

[Irrelephant11]

Like pretend I’m scum who for some reason decided to out my own soft to sketchily jump on the wagon of another player whose alignment I don’t know
Alisae can still be scum for the reasons I’ve mentioned
And has actually played scummily
As opposed to just being too busy to play (I won’t AtE you with the reasons I’m unable to play. Just take my word for it, scum!me is as active as town!me anyway if you meta me)

[insomnia]

Alisae’s doing nothing and I haven’t pushed eir buttons for one day.

i agree shes lynchbaity. not sure what to think of this being town game though?

ohh I guess this explains it....hmhmhmhmmm okay.

[Ausuka]

I'm not saying that you're lying about your real life; you're busy, sure.

To be frank, the reasons you've mentioned don't really make any sense and neither does the front of absolute confidence you're presenting here considering you've explicitly said that you haven't read most of the thread. What are the other things that make Alisae's play scummy?

[insomnia]

Claim bounty : Firebringer

Get out of my fucking game

[Firebringer]

there were no bounties in episode 2. u would be better of with saying u threw a lightsaber at me or something.

[insomnia]

Boon’s a creative person, I can’t tell if that was the unique mechanic, but I just outed it. Get cucked.

[Firebringer]

press x to doubt.

[Firebringer]

still waiting.

[Alisae]

Why is relly pushing me?

[Alisae]

Like I’m genuinely confused???????
I don’t get it.

[Ausuka]

But I feel like it’s obvious that town!Alisae only presents a scumclaim if it’s to catch the scum who signal back, which I did, which alisae then completely ignored. So I cant think of town motivation for Alisae’s posts.
