like if it wasnt for how much respect I hold for skitter/bh/datisi's ability to read you I would 10000% hard shove you here and kill you but I am practicing restraint this game because I did not enjoy hard shoving last game so I'm trying out being a nice person this game.

I don’t see why you would be doing differently as scum here when you’re not in any danger and the more slots you can keep viable going into D2/D3 the better for you
3 people have said my reasons are very valid and they can't all be scum with me
People being wrong, especially when one of those people, if town, has been tunnelled on me for most of the day, is not unexpected
Historians trace Westerners' use of the word Chinese to denote "confusion" and "incomprehensibility" to the earliest contacts between Europeans and Chinese people in the 1600s, and attribute it to Europeans' inability to understand China's radically different culture and world view.[5] In his 1989 Dictionary of Invective, British editor Hugh Rawson lists 16 phrases that use the word Chinese to denote "incompetence, fraud and disorganization".[6]
bad stuff. i don't like fighting over it elsewhere but it's not a regular part of the MS vernacular and shouldn't be
and i'm watching all the stars burn out
trying to pretend that i care

This makes perfect sense for you to do as scum because it conserves the t/t datisi/bloodhail fight for tomorrow

how is burning towncred by last minute forcing through a (fypov) town lim outside the 1v1 better than just letting two town elims happen and probably winning in elo

why not?
i was going to comment that saving me/bh for tomorrow would be a possible play so i don't get what's so impossible about this from you
I will straight up disregard all reason if you have a PR dream again. You can come back and be like, “I dreamt that Locke is a N2 Bulletproof Multitasking Cop and Self-Targeting Doctor,” and I will go, “Okay, Locke kill it is then.”

being wrong about your alignment and thinking my reasoning is poor is unrelated.
For example; Bloodhail is hard townbinning you and thinks my reasoning is valid but not a reason to hard scumbin you.
There is no guarantee that two town elims happen and we both know that your approach as scum is to just survive the day
It doesn’t matter if you burn towncred mislimming me if there is then a big t/t fight the next day because whoever “wins” on D2 also looks bad on D3 and towns have notoriously awful memories so are even less likely to remember that you killed town on D1

saving mena for later is also a possible play and requires much less taking obvious noticeable action

Sorry, to be clear
There’s a difference between long term planning shit out
And not thinking about the future at all
It is clearly advantageous to conserve a t/t fight for the following day
Ari doesn’t think about exactly who she’s going to bring to elo, but she does obviously see that some things will be advantageous on future days and others won’t
i don't love the way her townread on me seemingly disappeared for ??? reasons as the collective read on me went down the toilet
but i still don't think it's likely she played d1 the way she did as scum, and if she's scum it's with someone who was widely townread so it makes sense to flip there first

that's not how thread dynamics works.
that's not how human nature works.
townies are by design unpredictable.
when I play scum I take my eliminations when I can get them. I do not save them for tomorrow because nobody knows what townies will do when they wake up tommorrow.
i am really supreme uncomfortable at the prospect of the wagon swinging off my top scumread and me having to go through this dance again day 2
i want people to either kill me today or just clear me because the one place i cannot stand to be is alive and perpetually stuck in the poe while getting the freezeout. i cannot live through that nonsense again
and i'm watching all the stars burn out

If Ari is scum and datisi/bloodhail are t/t, do you really think that Ari is going to get me to vote skitter over her or get skitter to vote me over her?

mena is going to have a cooler head later and there won't be the imminent panic of the deadline
like i'm not saying it lockscums her but i can definitely see the idea because deadline panic is a powerful tool

yes I'm so desperate to elim you that I'm hard shoving you today when I can just help you mislim irrelephant 3 days ago and bop you the next day
you make so much sense
if you're actually town here you might as well replace yourself with an omgus bot
