That’s exactly the point. I’m like a prizefighter, I’m clashing with my foe while also trying to glitz it up for those watching. And it is extra-pertinent I do so because those watching, much like in a gladiatorial match, have the ability to give the thumbs-up or thumbs-down to my cause.

I think 555 covers my progression from wanting my own elimination to turning my eye more critically towards Gamma, particularly the part about what happened when I calmed down.

Regarding your (Taly)'s push for the chair, I believe that is the motivation
if you are scum
, but as discussed previously you are a townlean.

It feels like this could easily be a method for you to rain check how the thread perceives you, or try to paint

That concern feels fair but idk how to exactly rectify that rn
Part of the issue is Prism is trying to swamp me with evidence to sift through and rather than deal with a bunch of grist and shit that probably doesn’t matter I’m focusing on what I find pertinent. I had a similar reaction when ssbm_Kyouko cased me in Radio Buzz.

Strange that half this table, every single one of whom have fewer games with me than you, can readily vouch that I am this aggressive and pull out receipts like this in a flash as town, but this is the most pertinent and scummy point to you.

I probably barely remember most of our games

This is unrelated but I remember the only time I caught
Gamma
-scum with such confidence.

It was
Merchant's Daughter
and he had paired with an IC.

He 180'd his townread on me the second I scumread him. Then the IC lunged and scumread me.

I eliminated them.
viewtopic.php?p=10748890#p10748890
viewtopic.php?p=10750220#p10750220

Hehe, so I can officially say that I've eliminated an
innocent child
before. That should strike fear in scum of my capabilities.

It seems like your interest in the thread waned when you saw the

i think it would be fair to say i never had a ton of interest in the thread to begin with (i am quite excited about the game, but haven't found much of the thread interesting yet. i expect this will change eventually.), but it's also true that arguments with 7000 layers tend to especially bore me.

i still lean towards gamma being scum here. i think his pooky vote was nonsense, his tilting seemed a little scummy to me, i think several times he has thrown out votes in a weak attempt to distract from himself, and he's just acting strange overall, which makes him a good place for my vote right now as I have 0 other suspects. the fact that he's obviously losing the argument i don't care so much about -- i know that some players are just not as good at 1v1s and being one of those myself i can sympathize. but, i'm not sure i see a sense that he believes in the points he's making, which i do care about.

Ydrasse trying to jump in on the pockit fun felt a little overwrought
It's too early in the game to be voting someone because 'I don't think any of their paid actor reads are bad and I usually do' when Gamma has other valid suspicions.

It may just be inoptimal play over paid actor play though, since the reasons for his other suspicions are reasonable.
Only post that stuck out so far from them. I don't think
Saber/Gamma
is S-S.

Gamma
is approaching
"at threat of getting the chair"
aggro and I don't think a scumbuddy willingly incriminates themselves to defend a less than optimistic cause. At least, that's my presumption of a typical player I have no experience with.

The interpretation that
Gamma
is actually town means that
Saber
might be deepwolfing. But that's too stretchy to assume at this stage, and in poor faith.

I think
Saber
weighing the possibilities behind the posts that rile people up about
Gamma
is in good-faith, and likeliest town.

TLDR

T/T or T/S.
Saber
likely town.

Gamma
has pinged me with his posts in the past pages, but I don't want to press a sore. I think his frustration and
"wtf"
-aura is NAI and genuine, even if the reason is not.

Ask me a question! :D
