Are you seriously going to say that you wrote all of 1317, and then it is wrong for me to think your flip flopped back to being really sure that I was scum?In post 1347, syugar wrote:
What? This actuallyIn post 1340, Lukewarm wrote:And like, if he really believed everything that he said in 1317 then what was he doing when he made this comment
So, he was absolutely convinced that I was scum. Then decided that I was town. Then went back to being convinced I was scum. Both of the changes happened while I was completely out of the thread.In post 1286, syugar wrote:luke looks less partnered with gm the more i reread and talked with him today, largely for reasons i already believed in yesterday and just threw aside, i didn't really have any logical edge against him when we were arguing and his points related to yesterday's vote make senseisflailing: it's not true. I didn't even say that I currently believed you were the best vote, I'm just restating myself more clearly and engaging with Bella to try and show my thought process and understand what she thinks about it, how it changes her read about you in any way, and if-not-why-not. I rephrased my argument so that Bella could engage with it: I said nothing about continuing on to vote you (yet).
This isIn post 1313, syugar wrote:VOTE: Unvote
Here's what I'm going to do.
I believe I was a bit inarticulate about the read you just referenced on Luke. When I get home, I'll rehash it in more detail and we can talk through it.anothercase of you misrepresenting me; you realize I haven't even voted you yet?
You literally went from saying "luke looks less partnered with gm the more i reread and talked with him today, largely for reasons i already believed in yesterday and just threw aside, i didn't really have any logical edge against him when we were arguing and his points related to yesterday's vote make sense" to making the longest scum case you have made all game.
I don't care if you didn't you flat out say thatyou were convinced, or whether your vote moved with the case - the point still stands.-

I can't believe that you believe this. That just because I lay in bed at night and think about games, that I don't also make posts in the moment, as I'm reading, that are less thought out.In post 1345, syugar wrote:It's a crack in your game that doesn't line up with your perceived skill level or process, it feels like guttural and reactive pure defense or just a throwaway reaction used to force the impression of a progression on the table.

Yes, I think it's kind of obvious that I'm trying to give Bella something good to engage with so I can come to understand her thoughts better if you read the conversation leading up to that. She said my points were scummy and didn't make sense, I realized this was my fault, and I needed to remedy that. This is just in line with the trend of you choosing to misrepresent my actions, even continuing into this post where you choose to be combative rather than acknowledge what I'm actually doing which has been plainly stated in the thread multiple times and reinforced with a quote. You can keep going like this, you're just digging your own hole deeper.In post 1351, Lukewarm wrote:Are you seriously going to say that you wrote all of 1317, and then it is wrong for me to think your flip flopped back to being really sure that I was scum?

And again, this is not aligned with what I have done this game. You are acting like I did not ask you multiple follow up questions trying to figure out how you could have landed on that conclusion genuinely, and could not get an answer from youIn post 1345, syugar wrote:Why haven't I? It doesn't look like you were genuinely interested in getting an answer to that question, because you dropped it as soon as gave an answer you deem as unsatisfactory. You still don't. This shows something kind of impure about your approach: this clearly bothers you, but instead of browbeating me for an answer you're just interested in reframing and assuming the meaning of these posts. You're totally satisfied to hang me with my own words without first going through the social interactions to understand what my own words even are.

given what you just said, does this mean that you don't think that I would have "insightful town reads" as town? Or that I would have them as scum?In post 1203, Lukewarm wrote:Specifically what game did you read.
What about that post were you looking for in that game that you say you didnt see?-

In my mind, there's a difference between posts that are less thought out and just entertaining and posting thoughts that are clearly absurd. Does that make sense?In post 1352, Lukewarm wrote:I can't believe that you believe this.

Go look at any of my gut reactions to any post in this thread as a contrast.-

You're incorrectly assuming that that means "Luke just doesn't make detailed, nuanced cases". It never crossed your mind to ask me what I meant by that.-

"Yes I made a giant case against you, calling you scum in very certain terms, and trying to get another player to see why I think you are scummy... but I didn't vote you, so why are you acting like I was scum reading you so hard when I wrote it?"
Which is ridiculous.-

If I thought that content was a killshot, I'd have never even moved my vote to Bella in the first place. It's basically analogous to what I was thinking when I looked at all of your reads today, just rephrased with stuff added in in more detail that I didn't bother saying earlier due to a lack of interest.-

I'm willing to accept that a lot of your issues with me are my fault; I didn't open this day very well because I was and still am very frustrated and tired of this game. I flaked all of the other signups I've made and this is going to be my last one for a while. Are you willing to accept that I didn't speak clearly and entertain moving off of me today? You don't seem super collaborative.-

Your reason for scum reading me for my cases appears to shift to what ever suits your purpose in each sentence.
Like in the same post you both make this argument as to why I am scum:
And then say that it was wrong of me to think that this was the real reason:In post 1345, syugar wrote:It's a crack in your game that doesn't line up with your perceived skill level or process, it feels like guttural and reactive pure defense or just a throwaway reaction used to force the impression of a progression on the table. It's a type of loquacious empty-headedness that doesn't fit into the rest of your game.
But then, when you are looking at the posts from the other game, this is what you said.In post 1345, syugar wrote:You're incorrectly assuming that that means "Luke just doesn't make detailed, nuanced cases".
Like, in one line the issue is that I had a " guttural and reactive pure defense" -- but when you look at a case I made, where it was almost purely based in omgus'ing catboi to the point that I was really struggling to word it in any way that people would not just dismiss it as omgus, you just dismiss it as unrelated because this game I had detail in my town case of catboi.In post 1345, syugar wrote:The third read is something that you couldn't even explain, which is pretty much completely divorced from your case in this game. You had no problem getting into the details. But, again, this case doesn't assume any information that isn't available to the public.
How could you not see that there, if you really believed that to be the issue...-

I thought that the point of you posting those cases was to prove that you make detailed, nuanced cases. I am responding with how it's dissimilar to your towncase on catboi this game, because that's the context in which you provided it.In post 1364, Lukewarm wrote:Like, in one line the issue is that I had a " guttural and reactive pure defense" -- but when you look at a case I made, where it was almost purely based in omgus'ing catboi to the point that I was really struggling to word it in any way that people would not just dismiss it as omgus, you just dismiss it as unrelated because this game I had detail in my town case of catboi.
How could you not see that there, if you really believed that to be the issue...
If you want to compare your gutted omgus on catboi this game to your omgus in catboi in that other game, they're still very different. You have more reasons beyond catboi "knowing there would be a NK and having something ready". In that game, you post broadly about the thread state and how he is positioning strategically, etc. So I don't understand how these interpretations should some sort of inconsistency in my thought process.-

And then, you are arguing this, when that is literally the back bone of the case made here:In post 1345, syugar wrote:What's different about your read on catboi in this game? You assume information and team interactions that aren't available to the public, and it just isn't possible you have a good enough read on scum's supposed QT this game to satisfactorily make that leap without having extra questions or being unsure. You are gambling the game on content that you assume would exist if they were a scumteam but you are assuming does not exist because they disagreed on a mechanical play. If you can't see how this is much more of a reach than these three reads and is just substantively different, I'm not sure what to say.

It's difficult to tell, because I don't understand what you're saying in that post. It looks like you're playing Secret Hitler or something, not mafia. Do you have a different example that wouldn't require me reading a game for 10 to 20 minutes?In post 1367, Lukewarm wrote: And then, you are arguing this, when that is literally the back bone of the case made here:

No, it's more the fact that you didn't make any sense in 1364. I'm confident you're holding the L on that one.In post 1369, Lukewarm wrote:

I don't have a ton of experience with Titus, but from what I have seen, I feel like she would have had some semblance of a plan.
I would go as far as to say that there is already evidence this game that Titus was trying to coordinate plans in the scum chat
If you can't read these two back to back, and see that this is just one of the ways that I think about games semetimes, I don't know what to tell you.In post 1171, Lukewarm wrote:Like how would that scum team have gotten there? Did they not talk at all? This doesn't match what I've seen of catboi in scum chats - when I read his scum chat for fgo, I felt like there was a lot of collaboration and suggestions to his partners.
He argued for it too much if he didn't actually want it to happen, and GM argued against it too hard if they actually did want it to happen
Is it a scum team that thought the mass claim would help them? GM's play makes no sense
Was it a scum team that thought the mass claim would hurt them? Catbois play makes no sense
I'm gonna walk away now and let other people weigh in-

I'm open to believing that (remember, I unvoted you and voted for Bella), but what you quoted doesn't do a good job on convincing me because I just don't understand and don't see the similarities. You're talking about the scum team possibly teaming up to go for something called Blade Master or something, which I don't know what the fuck it is and may be super important, and comparing it to this overextrapolated case based on the idea of a massclaim which was ultimately irrelevant in the grand scheme of the game. Even if I were to buy that the complexity of the catboi case were typical of your towngame, it doesn't really reassure me on how worryingly different the depth of your reads are here, to the point where it feels like you're underanalyzing and not super trying to empathize with all of the possible angles from everyone else and going the extra mile for catboi for reasons I don't get. I don't even think you have considered the idea that I may be town here during our entire conversation in the last few hours.In post 1373, Lukewarm wrote:If you can't read these two back to back, and see that this is just one of the ways that I think about games semetimes, I don't know what to tell you.
