I'll make a pact with the scumteam right here right now. If you let me live until Giratina appears, I'll not cast a vote until that happens

WTF why are people still hung up on the training dummy question?
This is why I kinda lean town on Cakez now, definitely a reaction I would have as town.
This is a reaction anyone would have as anything.

If we assume this premise is even true (Titus disagreed with it), where do you see WIM in her posts & activity level? She can easily be scum for me.

You're clearly not reading my content to determine my alignment if you didn't notice that?
I think it's possible for someone who isn't paying rapt attention to the thread to not remember where every post came from, he's not even the only person to do something like that. I think that's true regardless of his alignment so focusing on this aspect is unlikely to be revealing. I would like to hear from him what's pinged him about you but would also like to see him get current.
You have defended like half the slots in the game at this point. At some point, you have offered scum shelter and comfort.

These were some very wolfy posts from Sheep again. Still content with my vote here.

I can't see the town thought process here
This explanation is about as good as sheep's that you're suspecting him for.

I can't do anything with "scum are somewhere in this pile of 10 players." Find them and get back to me.

In post 1839, Blue. wrote: I got beat by the previous posts, so I'll just amend that I acknowledge and will again state that at no point in that interaction was I actively expressing a scumread of you
In post 1833, SquirtleSquad wrote: I think you were testing the waters of a scum read multiple times and never got there because of thread politics.

The way you interacted with my slots at multiple points felt as if you were scum reading me but the fact that you never got there but also left me off your list of people you wouldn't vote for is something that has pinged me a lot. Basically you've directed a lot of negative attention towards my slot without actually committing to trying to push me.
To be perfectly honest?

I thought you might be town but left you off the list because your interaction with me made me feel bad and so I wouldn't care if you died. That's harsh but it's the truth, I'm not immune to feeling petty. I am a bit surprised people put so much weight on their non-inclusion on that list, although maybe I shouldn't be.


Some time later I began to wonder if you had actively manipulated me by guilt tripping me for expressing vaguely negative sentiment toward you. The whole thing left me feeling dirty.

This was partly why I questioned you. If there's a behavior that qualifies as "testing the waters of a scum read", surely taking potshots at me at every available opportunity must qualify as such. I couldn't fully understand where you were coming from with your read on me, so I asked you directly to see what your mindset was, because interrogating people directly about their reads on me is one of the best tools I have for determining. I think your explanation is plausible to me as a legitimate thought process. I mostly see where you're coming from now and understand it. I think your impression of me is misguided but genuine, and I clearly got off on the wrong foot with you, but I am hopeful this can be resolved in the future.

So, basically, I don't mind if you're paranoid of me.
This is a good example of a Blue post that has contributed to my thus far ignoring the things I find scummy about him, i.e. tossing around defenses like candy, the "hostile" interactions, and treading into others' lines of questioning. The tone works well, it has a way of coming off as earnest. I am in the process of considering whether this player could simply be skilled at replicating tone, because their actions have largely said scum to me I don't ignore my gut.

it sounds like your take on blue lines up reasonably close to mine, though.

He feels...pure here. Tonally, I get the sense that he's annoyed at the game but not the sense that its related to him being scum.
Has he faced enough suspicion to reveal those traits? Everyone has been ignoring him.

This is a fair point but also I don't think scum!norwee would be particularly inclined to pop up in the thread complaining about the game like he's doing here, and also like I don't think necessarily it only comes out when he's under pressure. I think there's a mindset tonal thing that goes on with him that I've picked up the last few times we've played together.

I still need to sit down with the game and determine whose house to burn down.

Sheep and Squirtle are the only slots I'm definitely not interested in. I wish this list were longer.

No, if I thought you were too strongly town to ever be a mislim option I would definitely shoot you.

I still think fb is town for the very early mech stuff. I know it happened a long time ago but I think you should add him to the list.

I also feel really good about black.

I do not feel like she has an agenda. I feel like her thoughts and posts are free flowing. What I said earlier is that I don't think her questions are likely to find scum but I also don't feel like they're fake either. I think she's poking into a lot of places that have low scum equity to poke.

I really liked her interaction around the norwee slot which I think she would have either ignored or pushed as scum but the fact that she saw norwees posts and came to the same overall conclusions as I did about them felt extremely +town to me.
