I sort of feel you're discrediting yourself - you just admitted that your last five days have generated nothing.
I'm asking if you're suffering from out of game issues or if this is what we should expect from you.

That said, it is probably a discredit - because it's my stance that you are capable of playing better.

@TSO - just iso him, he only has one wall-ish post and that's the one.

You are misunderstanding the question here.

He was not asked to give a rock solid read on you/Anem.
He was challenged because he had not offered "reads".
In that post he did offer many reads and opinions.

These are all the times 'Toby' shows up in GM's ISO, btw. So unless she's going to claim that *not* mentioning Toby at all was a reaction test, then... what?

When did you decide you wanted to scumhunt him and why?

Why?
Because "offering reads" is not really a matter of opinion, it is a factual state.

In post 1227, The Fonz wrote:Muffin's PerV push feels like the best push I've seen in this game. It rubs me up the wrong way that you attack another player's vote on the wagon you're on in a way that explicitly calls the attacking player scum, but then bend over backwards to point out this doesn't weaken your vote on the wagon in any way./quote]

In post 1227, The Fonz wrote:On that note, think PerV is scummy, mostly on the basis of the muffin case, not the Thor case.


In post 1227, The Fonz wrote:It is mildly suspicious that PerV pointed out the potential 'slip' in Thor then admitted he didn't think slipping is something Thor would do as soon as he's challenged on it.


In post 1227, The Fonz wrote:Scripten's gut town. I think Izariael is town who genuinely believes a 'strong null read' is a thing (LOL). Davesaz is really glaringly posting lots of IIoA. Newbie though. Consider this a warning to be more proactive. Nero's playing a very safe game, wouldn't have a problem lynching him, but PerV is better.

Also - I will offer a hearty smirk about he Izariel thing.

In post 1227, The Fonz wrote:On Boon, the point is that if he's town, scum now knows he's not vanilla anyway. But there's the risk that if he's scum, he's sliding by on a non-specific power claim. I'd lean no claim, just because I think he seems like a bad enough player that not knowing whether he has a major or minor PR if he's town is a significant problem for scum. Bullets to the face of people who have hinted power are bad. *Cough*Thor*Cough*


He then goes into a deeper Pere explanation.
However, what I see here is;

Pere = scum (plus multiple reasons)
He does call TSO v. Anemian 'nullish' via inference and openly questions the value of the case whether or not you like inference.
Scripten - town.
Izariel - town.
Dave - newb with potential to be town or scum but is considering him. (a fancy null read, basically)
Nero - scummy for reason stated, but a lesser read than Pere.
Boon - poor play, but don't want to lynch or see dead at this point and concider it worse play for scum (ergo - leaning town to some degree)

That is 5-7 reads depending how you want to qualify reads.
That is a post that contains reads - fact.
I suppose you can debate "many" but you can't really debate 25% of playerlist given reads on.
And at that point, what is your specific issue with him only having provided reads on around 25% of the player list?

I wasn't being a dick - I was just pointing out my opinion (which was wrong but let's not talk about that now.)

In post 860, Aneninen wrote:
Thor
– Thor is just being Thor. Is it easy to get annoyed by his style? Yes. Does that mean that he's scum? No. What I see is a town-Thor (though I've played with him only twice). But, there is something else.
Somehow I can feel that he's nervous. But since there's no wagon against him this must be a town-frustration, in my opinion. Probably town.


This is one of Aneninen's reads. I do not understand how the bolded adds up whatsoever.

He's nervous ---> but he's not being voted ---> frustrated town. Maybe you can see it, Fonz, I can't.

He's nervous -> but he's not in the kind of position that would cause scum to be nervous -> therefore, it's town frustration.

I mean, nervousness and frustration aren't precisely synonyms. But you can replace either with 'on edge.' You should be getting a Thor/Anen negative connection if you're reading it the way I think you are. Is that true?

My take on Anen is that his read on you is wrong but town motivated. He's modelling you as being capable of rationally capable of seeing that csareo is a VI, not worth engaging with, but doing it anyway because you're scum and you know that arguing with him will make the thread unreadable and harm town morale, which suits your end as scum. I think this is an interesting and original insight (I had a 'Hey, I never thought of it that way, but it could make sense' kind of reaction) but that he's wrong because he's underestimating the extent to which you're annoyed and can't help yourself - the 'Someone is wrong on the internet' phenomenon. Then he's starting to show similar frustration towards you later on, hence the 'nothing but pooping pigeons' post. I agree with him that you saying he couldcould vouch for you off one abandoned game's meta is silly, I don't think it's contradictory though (because it's possible to think 'My play is so different to my scumplay any competent player who's seen my scumplay should be able to tell this isn't it' while not classing Csareo as a 'competent player.')

My case is more eloquent, but, yes, you have functionally simplified it down - though I think the third and the first point are the same point - as the only read I cited as bad enough to be scummy is the read involving multiball, and I have no other scumtell associated with the multiball point other than inability to defend his belief in it being scummy. I also would note the lie is one I said he directed at town in general, not me in particular, though I will agree I was amongst those he lied to.

ok well...TBH that case doesn't sway me but ok, lets say that I'm wrong and PV is scum. Who are the non PV scum in this game?

Fonz also needs to explain why 385 from PV is scummy.
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
