I did actually and indeed you do question around a lot as town and scum. The difference being when you are scum you do the thing where you hook people into answering your questions, while as town I didn't ever see you do that in the few games I looked at. Not saying that explicitly must be scum, but no this behavior doesn't match your town game.
In post 2647, Datisi wrote:- "For example, when he was following VPB's votes onto Dunn and then to RTP, even though Datisi kept reitirating that he thought Italiano is scum." you know why i was doing that? (1) because people didn't seem that interested in italiano. i'm not a fool to keep my vote parked in places where i know it's not gonna go anywhere. (2) pressure is used to sort people. votes apply pressure. like i don't have to constantly have my vote on my strongest scumread, especially coupled with (1).
Ok fine if you didn't think Italiano was going anywhere, but you haven't pushed
any
of your own convictions. You wait to see a towny make a vote and then chime in with a vote and your reasoning. Even your eventual vote on Italiano, you had to see RTP vote there before hopping on yourself. Again I will back this up with quotes tomorrow, the game is quite long to comb through.
In post 2647, Datisi wrote:- yeah, i said it's more likely scum are off wagon than on and that i didn't feel like going there atm. then my scumread on midway got stronger bc he started acting the same way he did in his last scumgame where he handvawed my reasons away and then he was scum. i was not letting that slide. i love how my ~airy reason~ wasn't brought up at all yesterday while i was actually pushing midway
Yeah, that reasoning is very weak. Too weak to so suddenly change your mind like you claim it did. No, you changed your mind because VPB changed his mind.
In post 2300, Datisi wrote:ok i had like a thought and i'm not sure i like my dunn vote that much anymore. so first i'm gonna make a 9000 iq assumption that baltar/dunn aren't scum together. ok cool. so the fact that baltar is like, asking dunn to be more active, and dunn is plainly refusing to do that is giving me some sorta town vibes? like there's a Thing spelled out that he can do to have baltar see him in more positive light and he's purposefully not doing that?
In post 2300, Datisi wrote:2231 from midway is giving me flashbacks back to 2180 when i was calling him out for doing nothing based on meta (i modded a newbie game where he was town and plenty active) and his response was something along the lines of "oh my playstyle changed haha" and he was just a scumfuck lol
Your reasoning for flipping on dunn is just as weak. VPB has been calling Dunn scum for lurking all game. Dunn had continued lurking all game. Now, suddenly Dunn is town for that.
Tell me which scenario is more reasonable to you
A) Datisi happened to flip opinions on Dunn and midway in the same post (with weak reasoning that maybe he actually believes in?) and just so happened to come to those conclusions after VPB directed his attention from Dunn to midway.
B) Datisi changed his opinions to fit the push VPB was making and used flimsy generic reasoning to explain it.
The answer is so obvious.
