[hellbooks]

that was a question posed (unclearly, sorry) to skitter and im sure her answer is gonna be something like "well you're clearly scum whose utilizing a 750 iq strategy where you purposely and knowingly act too-scummy-to-be-scum"

As an AI language model, I do not have access to real-time information or the ability to browse the internet. However, here is a potential rebuttal to a user named "tris" voting for you in a game of forum mafia.

"Hey! Please stop voting me! I am aligned with the town and should not be voted for if the town wants to eliminate all of the threats to the town, which is a typical win condition in a game of mafia."

[Ausuka]

Re the passive aggressive stuff, I meant it to be like mostly just bantering within the bounds of the mafia game but I can stop that. The propaganda post I didn't even realise would be interpreted that way I just meant it as like, I actively townread meuh and I am not going to so easily be convinced to vote for her..

I read the points about fire and I'm not really convinced but I can't really respond to that properly until I can get on my laptop. Fwiw I think your position on fire was like easier to understand than your position on meuh. I'm not really like sure you'll flip scum but the alternatives of meuh and hellbooks are like deeply unconvincing to me

I probably do need to iso sky again

[Skygazer]

i can see why ppl would scumread me here. too low energy to defend myself rn but i think its telling the two ppl i've played the most mafia with (ausuka/skitter) presumably have me at null or town. am just a weirdo sometimes and i have trouble getting into D1

[Ausuka]

Can you comment on my performance at the met gala

[hellbooks]

coming soon anywhere bookstores are sold!

tragically out of all of the silly little bon mots ive intentionally said in this game, this completely unintentional one might be the funniest

Ok, maybe I'm just being overly sensitive. I believe you didn't mean it like that. My bad

[tris]

honestly, everyone in this thread has great avatars

[Skygazer]

speaking of, honestly believe the only reason im employed rn is im funny

[Meuh]

I'm not doing a last minute Skygazer push

[Meuh]

I read Baltar's post and didn't really get much from the section on Fire. Most things there hinge on:
-Fire's actions relative to me, (Fire going after Baltar when Baltar starts going after me)
-Fire's words and actions that I also have said or done (disengaging with the game during Baltar's V/LA. Like really? Not further pushing someone who can't answer questions and isn't adding anything new to analyze in the thread is scummy? It's completely reasonable to do.), or
-Fire's posts that I found completely reasonable but that Baltar thinks are illogical (393)

fire's play around meuh and myself also feels EXTREMELY opportunistic. Fire starts calling me scum first around the time I begin to mix it up with meuh.

Keep in mind that fire claims he is scum reading meuh at this time (even votes her). There isn't much internal logic here that I can see. What I do see, however, is someone wanting to be on the right side of the D1 yeet. I like to think a lot about how scum position themselves in games, especially early on before the game has calcified. What I see here is someone who thinks meuh/VP fight has a chance of going somewhere mildly serious, and they think splitting the baby early is a good approach to land on whatever wagon gains the most traction.

(...)

Which reads to me as someone stoking a conflict from the sidelines. Again, the wedge being pushed here is a Meuh/VP divide.

Fire's reasoning is shaky at best. My point is "weird." The point I was making was quite clear. Fire is welcome to disagree, but calling it "weird" and "busy work" is pretty much a steaming pile of doo doo that reads like friend signaling to ausuka more than trying to be substantiative.
(...)

I also find fire's scum read on meuh so fake. For example, fire cites some meta for why they townread meuh. Meuh assures fire the meta is wrong. Meuh then fails to supply said counter meta. Fire then just lets it go as a nonpoint.

I found these bits at least slightly compelling. Fire's position could be one scum would angle towards, though I'd have to check out the earlier passages again to get a better feel for it.
Note that I do find the point about Fire potentially "stoking a conflict from the sidelines" intriguing, but the post Baltar cites as an example (548) is a completely reasonable point to make and a good post. Baltar's case hinges a LOT on logical disagreements with Fire in cases when I think Fire has been the more logical one in pretty much every interaction. This gives me extra bad feelings because I remember during the dance game that I almost always saw Baltar as the more reasonable one in his interactions with others. (viewtopic.php?p=13605794&f=56&t=90239&u ... #p13605794) Though I do recall clashing with him in Invictus, where we were both town. That game's kind of distant in my brain though.
Oh and Baltar's case on Fire marginally raises the equity of the legendary Fire/Baltar team

[fireisredsir]

hmm
