wow klick not gonna even bother asking ME about my petapan fanboy townread.
Rude af
Klick honorary scum.
If you can convince me petapan is town I'm also happy to hear it!
The other fire has a way of speaking to my soul though
Here's Klick using the same language as town in a past game btw
What do you think my explanation was? Are you talking about 495?
Yes.
I was under the impression that you were saying "Klick has a scum mindset because he said 'convince me' rather than 'explain to me'"
I thought this was a bad read, and perhaps disingenuous, but I buy your explanation of "I've seen that phrasing be used many times, but I can't say with confidence it's from both alignments" (or something to that effect)
that's not what I meant at all - I don't think he's scum for the wording, I don't doubt he could use those words as either alignment. In the game you linked, he's been playing from the start.
My point is, one of the first things he did on replacing in, was ask to be convinced that the leading wagon is on scum. This makes sense when the VC is more contentious (think competing E-2 wagons), when the game is longer, and reading a lot of pages will be time-consuming, or when the deadline is shorter, and there isn't enough time to read.
None of that applied here which is why I thought it was scummy. What bugs me maybe even more though is your defense of Klick. I dont know why you're first assuming my read is based on Klick's verbiage, and then why you decided to pull meta on Klick to support town!Klick when as far as I can tell you haven't expressed a TR on me (wanting to steer your TRs the right direction) or Klick(wanting today defend your TRs). I'm thinking there's a possibility that my playstyle is being discussed in the scum PT and I'm being targeted for pocketing, which would mean someone on the scumteam is very familiar with me. That brings Gamma and Koba to my mind right off the bat
I assumed your read was based on Klick's verbiage, yes. I don't see why my misunderstanding of your read makes me scum. I do not have a strong read on either you or Klick, and I defended him from you because I thought your point was illogical. And how does this connect to pocketing you at all?
I feel like the simplest conclusion one would draw reading my 495 is not that my scumread was based on Klick's verbiage, but that it's based on my thinking Klick did not display a town mindset in his [ppst]412[/post]. However, someone who knows me well would know that it is not uncommon for me to nitpick on verbiage as town. I have often found that players' particular word choices are strange and done meta-dives where I check if a player normally uses those words. It feels like you, T3, were familiar with that, and you delivered the evidence of town!Klick to me unprompted, and in a manner that I would normally find Klick to be town for myself if this particular SR on Klick was based on his verbiage. I do not think you should have that level of familiarity with my play, which makes me think that you are in a PT with someone that advised you on my meta. Of this playerlist, that someone is almost certainly one of Gamma or Koba, or maybe Dunnstral.
Is it not possible that I simply misunderstood 499? Especially given that I’m not particularly good at thread comprehension and stuff like that and have made similar errors in the past.

503 is his initial reaction to me SRing Klick - I don't think that it's reasonable for him to have read 495 and think that my issue with Klick is that he used the words "convince me" without prior knowledge that this is the kind of thing I am liable to push on from time to time. 516 is the unprompted evidence that Klick uses this verbiage as town
1. I want to know what your strongest reads are at this moment. Which players do you have the most confidence in just being town? Which players do you have a particularly bad feeling about, even if you can't currently justify it? I want to know the opinions that matter most to you atm.
2. Following that, I also want to know what you all think of the following slots:
{STD, Gamma, Penguin, Pooky, Chungus, jjh}
(I'm not solely limited to focusing on those slots, that's just where my own PoE has me atm and I want something to more meaningfully sort between them.)
My end goal is to push the game in a positive direction. I am seeing a lack of cohesion/willingness to drive the game forward all around, and my intention is to change that and get pressure on high equity scum slots.
I also want to trial what happens if I just openly and transparently do this, as opposed to doing it the inconspicuous way. It seems like a good opportunity to try it, considering the stagnant game state.

So how much of the thread have you read, and what made you vote ssbm_Kyouko?
I see all
Kyouko's STD vote followed by later unvote and apparent confusion at the wagon is my primary point of focus. Voting STD with the intention of generating content should be known to be completely pointless because STD won't do that. I don't think the 'default wagon' line of reasoning works from the standpoint of one who was willing to vote there initially
