Do you agree or disagree that he's probably not scum with anyone else?
At the moment i find it unlikely but still plausible that Vanderscamp, if scum, is with Infinity. But i could see Skitter and you, easily.
My scumread on Vanderscamp is finding him individually scummy though.

I feel like Vandercamp's been avoiding talking about my read on him, and it's concerning me. I wanted to vibe with him as usual, but it's like he's just not there. In body yes, but his spirit is gone.

Like you repeatedly say that my reaction is why you want to kill me.

But when I ask you how my reaction makes sense from a scum!me perspective;

like what am i trying to get out of this?

why would scum!me force an early 1v1 with town!you?

You complain that I'm bad faith putting the burden on you to perfectly map out my scum reaction.

Do you see how these two contentions don't actually mesh?

Pooky we both know you sometimes to do things as scum that can't be explained by anything other than you doing it because you want people to think you'd never do it as scum. You pushing for yourself to be left behind in Trust Fall comes to mind

In reality, I don't really know why you would here but I also don't understand why town!you would react the way you did here ~.~

This is a true 1v1 between No Face / Pooky
They are completely deaf to any other sounds.
Kinda makes it feel even more townie tbh. I'd expect scum!them to try to win over everyone else's side in pushing through the other as an elimination rather than just have pure arguing.

Bingle's point about Vanderscamp needing to be considered a very good endgame player if they were to be put in the 6P. And if Infinity already has the bias that "Vanderscamp isn't good at scum" they'd probably want to be in the 6p pool.

I feel like you should also consider the fact that I'm much weaker at scum than jingle or skitt. Mostly because that means skitt/vander is unlikely.

Like map out what happens if scum!me forces a 1v1 on d1/d2 while at a disadvantage.

probly 60%-80% of the time you elim me, game is over

40%-20% of the time, I elim you, I get elimmed on the next day, town has 2 chances to elim my partner in 3 players, there's probably enough info from D1 to narrow down who the partner is or at least rule out one partner.

Either way I lose.

So why would I even expend the energy to pursue almost certain loss?

This makes 0 sense for scum!me to do to town!you yet you continue to insist that's what's happening here nad that's what's like mindboggling to me. That you think this is a path that scum!me decides to go down.

Anyway, looking forward to Vanderscamp coming back on so i can see his responses. Looking less forward to Mena coming back on to rant about how i'm obvscum.
Most likely taking a break now.

The 1v1 was started on this post or before:
In post 647, PookyTheMagicalBear wrote:the essence of his push on me isn't "I scumread Pooky"

it's I town-read everyone else for ___, ____, ____, and _____

It leaves one person out of the equation, notably that's himself.

It's an effective strategy for pushing mis-elims on d1 because you create a coalition/support by handing out townreads to get people to help you, and you create a mutual target for everyone to go after.

It's also incredibly difficult for me to defend against because he's not actually scum-reading me for anything, so there's nothing for me to refute

then tomm after I'm flipped town he will "go back" to his townreads and "think" about where he went wrong.

Here's the VC:

Infinity 324 (1) - skitter30

Not voting (1) - Vanderscamp

(expired on 2021-04-20 14:23:00) remain until day end

skitter30 is perpetually V/LA on Fridays and Saturdays.

With 9 players alive, it takes 5 to reach a majority.
I don't think you're at a big disadvantage by any means. Vanders and Norwee both haven't sided with either of us yet, and you probably think Mene will side with you

I don't think it's as handicapped a position for you at that time as you're making it out to be 2'2

I really don't like Bingle for agreeing with Pooky's reasoning that I'm scummy for not reevaluating that one of my scumreads happens to be voting the other. I've been pushed for this as town before and I've never understood it, I just treat my reads independently, and no, Bingle voting for Pooky while I'm sus of both is not going to magically make me less suspicious of Pooky. Yes, it means they are less likely to be aligned if Bingle commits to that vote/push but before that, distancing is a thing, and even if I think Bingle/Pooky aren't aligned, what do I do? I townread 4 others in that and Pooky is nullscum, I don't just randomly go and scumread one of my townreads. I just really don't understand that scumread/reason at all but maybe Pooky and I just think differently

What I really don't like is Bingle agreeing with that assessment though (_(

gs.d

when you PoE vote someone,

you are not trying to sort their alignment

you are trying to kill them.

Do you not understand this?

If you voted me with a I think Pooky is scum because ___ & ___ or whatever, maybe we could have a conversation and you could sort my alignment

but you're not doing that...

The only time you posted where you actually presented suspicions, I actually responded in detail and you just hand-waved it with a joke.

That is very clear to me you are
not
interested in my actual alignment and you are more interested in killing me.
