Yeah, I’m not wasting anymore time “defending” myself. How such a weak push gains so much momentum is beyond me. As far as being “defensive”. That’s being manufactured, and people are buying it.I asked some obvious questions that anyone would ask. Good thing is, This train is giving me some information, though.

...information, such as?

[Scorpious]

56 and 63 l really bother me. The timing of it. Natalya shifts gears to mention getting nothing from T3, then out of nowhere we get this long explanation which Retty pointed out as being very uncharacteristic. Then the T3 slot shuts down again. I don’t like it, I feel there could be scum amongst those 3.

Votes, and positions on the train.

[Retti]

I think Natalya probably has ~sincere conviction~ or whatever in her Scorp read, I just don't really think I see it, the questions he asked her are just asking her to explain her reads, which isn't exactly screaming "scum" to me. His response is weird but I would agree with Oman's assessment at the end of 115 that the votes on Scorp after Natalya look opportunistic in nature, which has me not wanting to go in that direction.

[Retti]

wow... Oman town, I don't see scum putting in that much effort this early

What about the effort did you like, exactly?

[Retti]

Welcome back, yeah I played a game on another site and was thinking : “I wonder if MS is still a thing”

TURNS OUT IT IS! I heard that Patrick Gower won the Nisei world champs and I was like "huh, we used to play mafia together"

Welcome back, BTW - always like playing with older users because it reminds me of when I was starting out (this is an alt, I was originally active around 2011 or so). I feel like the meta has shifted a lot since then, hopefully it's not too big an adjustment.

Oh in my original count earlier I said one scum on Scorpius, and I excluded Nat. I just missed it, her vote must've been earlier than I looked.

[Natalya]

I mean, so far I'm liking Natalya, not gonna lie

I am too, I really like that opening, even if I was the random target.

This feels like a weird thing for him to say given how many questions he has posed towards me.

I'm not sure what the point of him questioning me is if he thinks I'm town.

I agree with this and the subsequent posts.
VOTE: Scorpious

This might be the worst post of the game.

It's somewhat weird for you to believe this but not vote for him.

[Natalya]

I think Natalya probably has ~sincere conviction~ or whatever in her Scorp read, I just don't really think I see it, the questions he asked her are just asking her to explain her reads, which isn't exactly screaming "scum" to me. His response is weird but I would agree with Oman's assessment at the end of 115 that the votes on Scorp after Natalya look opportunistic in nature, which has me not wanting to go in that direction.

A thing that confuses me is that Retti/Oman believe the latter voters on the Scorp wagon to be opportunistic in nature but their votes are on T3, who is not voting for Scorp.

[Retti]

I haven't seen anything that makes me not suspect T3. It is possible to have more than one scumread.

[Natalya]

Ok who do you scumread on the Scorp wagon?

I was pretty explicit about why I made my vote in my post: It's better to have two strong wagons which cause people to move into "camps" and draw lines between each other than for me to vote egrix or whatever.

[Retti]

Shrug? None of them are exactly shining beacons of towniness. (If anyone wants to accuse me of "throwing shade" by doing this, I will throw hands). Aza and Egix both basically said nothing with their votes, if you wanted to squint and stare at it, I

could

say Aza's seems better by being more bold than I'd expect from most scum where Egix was more generically sheepy but at that point I start to question if I'm starting at the screen too hard and starting to see spots in my eyes. fua's vote is more "reasonable" but I Did Not Like 94, it felt like they were possibly testing the waters on a Scorp vote but didn't want to be seen as the first to jump ship there, only moving when it became a bigger wagon.

How so? I’m not going to vote someone every time they do something I don’t like..

How do you view this post?

UNVOTE: fua

[Retti]

Yeah, I’m not wasting anymore time “defending” myself. How such a weak push gains so much momentum is beyond me. As far as being “defensive”. That’s being manufactured, and people are buying it.I asked some obvious questions that anyone would ask. Good thing is, This train is giving me some information, though.

...information, such as?

Votes, and positions on the train.

I don't get what that is supposed to mean? Like, I would have assumed you were getting reads on the people pushing you, but you haven't really done that, in fact you gave a null/don't know stance on two of them so I have no idea what you're actually doing with this information.

[Retti]

And why the unvote?

So Natalya votes me based on.. I guess my joke vote.. whatever. As stated. I’ve never seen that. I’m also assuming not many others have as well. Then i ask, standard questions and get accused of being “explainy” and “defensive”.

This person obviously has some sort of clout to expect others to just buy into it. Eg-
The recruitment “attempt” toward Adente.

I look at this as a site regular with a bit of an ego expecting the train to go where they want it.
Could mean 2 things:
1. They feel they nailed scum, the ego won’t let them be wrong, and they are trying to solve.

Or

2.This person knows the player list and picked out a name they aren’t familiar with and
Decided to go the aggressive route. I feel this may be true because they have cut the legs out of anything I have said by calling it “defensive”. Or the latest question of why I wouldn’t vote someone for a post I didn’t like.

All I know as fact is that this person has decided they are going to focus on me, they have offered next to nothing on anyone else.

With all that said. I’m looking for the opportunistic votes here. Egix’s
Was bad but there are 12 days before deadline. So
Much time to formulate reads.

[Scorpious]

And why the unvote?

still my RVS

[Retti]

Are you often slow to form reads/do anything with your vote on day 1? I don't understand what you're doing right now.

Yes I’m very deliberate, even moreso when there are so many that have contributed nothing.

Interesting. This seems to me like scum just blatantly sheeping someone's read in order to lay low. I may be wrong, but I believe that Egix is sometimes frozen scum?

Huh.
I seem to remember playing with someone who had your exact username on EM but I might be wrong.
