He says he has weekend V/LA but it's not the weekend so that's not an excuse rn

Do you seriously have a problem with people trying to get meta on you?

Unrelated but I see Ico’s posting now so I’ll unvote.

How often does that actually work out for you instead of you just getting voted out.

Absolute confidence of only two scum and being aware that four scum doesn't make sense in the same line. DA FUCK? I mean two scum is way more likely than 4 with how scumsided an even game is but really?

Last 12 player game I read the players set up speccing considered 3 scum or 2 + traitor, though that was one game about a year ago.

No nap, sleep comes soon though, I can feel it.

Yeah, definitely tunneled, still doesn't feel agendary unless they were both in on it. Mixed but on average positive feelings lead me to TvT for now.

what's AI about me not being here?
i don't get the 'low post' reference, because i wasn't low posting

and then you reference a game where i low posted, but was town and conclude i'm probs scum here then?

or am i misreading that?
You’re misreading it. See my post to Tris before you got here.

Serious vote of my own.
you aren't using your words so either you are scum that's pretending like they are doing things by throwing down a forceful naked vote or you are massively unhelpful town.
I was joking about it because I wanted to move past it
And like, I was trying to pressure EV to not be rando but that didn't work it seems
still feel like voting there since I don't really know why EV is doing what he's doing and it's not a thing that I can see waved away by a "weird =/= scum" line
if i start out by playing like a dip shit then i don't have to explain myself to people which is significantly less work for me and it's so fantastic
i can just read the thread and have some fun by extending my self-rvs until i find something to bite on
Or we can vote you out for deliberately obfuscating your motives
See Gamma knows what’s up.

Is that a misrep considering they are talking about slips in the first place.

I could see that being the case. Unless something drastic happens by the end of the page it's where I'm voting I think.

SirCakez doesn't feel parroty to me


I'm surprised to find Nero is voting Echo. Really doesn't feel that way reading the game. Does seem like a nice place to vote tho

No, it’s the fact you have not expressed much reads of your own up to now it seems. The EV push is pretty popular and you’ve only stood behind Nero when it comes to pushing me

cakez, what was it that you liked about my posting/gamma push?
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I don’t feel like my concerns have been fully addressed
Icon also started posting in Kids With Lungs in response to pressure D2, so I don’t think becoming more active in response to pressure here is particularly Town-indicative. I think you probably took your vote off too early.

So what? I mean, if Cake is scum and you are town then sure he could just be following me around but @ the same time why can't he just be town that agrees with me?

Like, you are on his case for not pushing you until I said anything about you but you could say that about anyone that agrees with someone and that feels a little discredity and catch-all.

I think part of what Im seeing from SC is a lack of actual towny drive. Like, when I agree wit JV someone as Town, I don’t just say “I agree with that” and leave it, I actually aim to develop the conversation with my own thoughts and analysis, seeking to expand the discussion with my own perspective. He’s not adding anything, he’s just stating reads, and the fact they’re reads others have expressed just make me trust it less.

I strongly disagree with this. Ico normally gets scum read so I could easily envision a scum Ico not wanting to post in fear that he gets scum read. He's (Alch) also correct when he says that Ico can react to his wagon when he gets back. I'm also sympathetic b/c town me has been pushed for voting a scummy inactive slot. No, he's actually taking initiative and that's + town. If anyone is scum here its Gamma who basically calls Ico scum in but doesn't vote until Alch votes. Why is your focus on Alch but you are ignoring Gamma?
This
And some of your reasoning is a bit nitpicky but Gamma's reaction has been bad
