I think on meta gamma!scum tends to be more friendly and conciliatory while gamma!town tends to be more antagonistic and angry.

this is funny because in the world where hut/peng are t/t and SS is scum then SS is trying to vote early so he doesn't get stuck hammering a townie when inevitably everyone votes and he's still there twiddling his thumbs on a fence because scum SS is deathly allergic of hammering townies.

It's always the same. When you fire that first shot, no matter how right you feel, you have no idea who's going to die. You don't know whose children are going to scream and burn. How many hearts will be broken. How many lives shattered. How much blood will spill, until everybody does what they're always going to have to do from the very beginning... SIT DOWN AND TALK!

In that situation I wouldn't have to vote at all. I know because I've been in it quite a bit. I can just continue to stall and someone else will eventually hammer.

i do not remember a single time when you praised vca or did it?
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.”

ok so why would you move from me to penguin when both are at 3 votes and you say you aren't convinced that penguin flips scum? saying the penguin wagon comp looks good doesn't make sense as a reason to switch if you also townread the entire wagon on me

This is, admittedly, a more recent mindset than I was thinking. But your argument is just terrible-- staying off the main wagons is never going to make me look bad unless one flips scum. Hell, I could probably vote a vanity as scum and be fine.

Sure, but I know that staying off the wagons wouldn't make me look bad because I've done it a million times.

if the wagons go to 6-6 and you're the lone undecided vote, you would feel uncomfortable making the choice.

You would like to avoid that discomfort.

All right, bet.

UNVOTE:

Get the wagons to 6-6, and I'll make the decision.

And like, insomuch as that discomfort thing is at all accurate (it is accurate, but not related to my motivation), it would point toward me being town, because I'd be a lot less comfortable if I actually don't know the answer and my team is counting on me to make the best choice, then if I did know and had to pick the best tactical decision.

and also i do not think s_s voting here is scummy

it's making me question whether his account has been hacked, but i don't think it's scummy, no

Yeah I feel like being one of the last people involved in voting, either voting late or being the one to stay off both wagons, automatically makes you look bad to some degree. But S_S is semi-immune to that because it's considered his meta. I don't know why he'd think one or the other would make him look worse.
