well—yes, actually. but, ignoring that for a second, from an epistemic point of view there's no reason by default to townread any one person. yes, the majority of the playerlist is town making it more probable than not that any person picked at random is town, but in mafia and particularly in the setup we're playing, i'm of the opinion that it makes far more sense to start by default with everyone at "null".In post 597, YOUAREGREAT wrote:a better question would be: do you have any reason to think that i'm not town?In post 552, RC most awesomest wrote:@youaregreat
we have a pretty good amount of overlap in our coalitions. why should i townread you

so, if the first and only thing you have to say in response to why i should townread you is "why wouldn't you townread me", that doesn't exactly inspire a lot of confidence in me. (i don't think it's actually a better question)
i mean, a coalition is ideally a strong townblock – would you want someone who you don't townread but just don't have any reasons to scumread?
as for the reasons to why i actually scumread you, i think the way that you entered with massive quotewalls of responses but then slowly transitioned to just saying "after doing some re-reading" to justify a relatively unexplaind list of reads, as well as the way that your posting in general has slowed down is probably scum indicative. i understand that you seem to be busy in real life and in no way am i holding that against you – rather, it seems to me that even with the time that you have to post in thread, the rate of your "scumhunting" has gone down, and it reminds me of scum losing motivation to continue faking a lot of thought.
to go a bit further in-depth and be a bit more specific when it comes to posts, i think that this question towards NC39 is probably disingenuous:
that's given your apparent opinion on clemency before you joined the game.In post 340, YOUAREGREAT wrote:that's cause i just joined this game.
but that means i should be on your null-list.
why am i on your scum-list?
after all, someone who just joined the game still had a predecessor, who nc39 might have had a read on previously.In post 311, YOUAREGREAT wrote:for the record, i replaced into this slot because i iso'd clemency's lines and thought he was extremely blatantly town
looking forward to living up to his reputation
you yourself
even indicated that you had a read on who you replaced, and yet not only do you seem to ignore the possibility that NC39 could have scumread you because of clemency, but you don't really seem to commit to the argument that clemency played towny. after just saying that you thought clemency was extremely blatant town, you then argued that you should be nullread because you had just joined. don't the two seem mutually exclusive to you?-nsg
