iirc he posted 2 or 3 times, including a post right after Varsoon's entrance to the effect of "good going".

Orcinus warned him not to join the new neighborhood a couple times. I don't think he ever responded to that.

It's kind of annoying not to be able to look back at what was posted there on day 1.

I would vote for Cephrir but I'm not because I'm half-expecting orc to have a plan for him what with the doc protection request yesterday. Out of everyone that was in black hole, I think Cephrir is the most likely scum.

Yeah, alright. Sorry about being so forceful about this. It's just, really, why are you so worried about specficially talking about Cabd in thread? Are you really that worried about him subtly changing his playstyle?

yes

well damn that was a great question

Yeah, I never got to respond to orcinus or really post much in the neighborhood. I don't see much point in neighborhoods.

I don't have a plan for cephrir aside from me sorting fery and fery sorting cephrir.

Feel free to vote ceph. I am not even 70% confident on my cephrir read.

It is weird. I'm trying to figure out if it's scummy.

He's been town in every one of the games we've played. My recollection of his play has been that he's kind of a curmudgeony nonentity who gets run up and lynched on day 1.

As scum, he's more out there, I think.

Cabd replaced into a scum team ABR was on in a game a few months ago. I want to see what he thinks.

Please do.

If you think I could be scum, it seems like that's something important you should be voicing.

Perhaps it's been something I've done in a neighborhood.


Don't be petty

Ceph is seemingly universally townread. If you have a reason to doubt that it might be more prudent to tell the town vs. orc's specific read on Cabd.

mmm. Universal. That's a pretty strong word right there. How come do you think? Why should I trust it?
Also, not mutually exclusive. I can focus on both, thanks.

The question wasn't you trusting it.

If you have an opinion that everyone else disagrees with, it becomes more important to explain it, lest the game head down the wrong path.

Not that unfortunate if you don't actually do anything to push it or explain anything. Your most recent posts sound like you don't really know why you had this read, so... has it changed?

Cabd actually is that slippery. If I had any confidence in my ability to read Cabd, I would do the same.

To take this a little further, this resonates with me because keeping scumreads hidden from Scumrir is a very good idea. Someone once pointed out during a replace in wall I was making that I sounded too certain and aggressive, which used to be markers of my scum game. I turned on a dime and started sounding really unsure of myself the moment this was said. Somehow, nobody noticed, and I believe I survived that game. And I think Cabd plays similarly, if more subtly.

That was me (and I think Nacho agreed). :(

The SK shot you in that game, I think.

Yeah, I am wrong too. Apparently it's Vincent Cassel. Who I've seen in a few things but never seen him look like that.

Anyway it's NOT House.

Interesting article. I might read it later. However, my general impression of ABR has always been that he's more proactive. Maybe you just tend to get the shitty ABR in your games.

State Farm Mafia 2 - Town. Painful game laden with walls of text. ABR was a large contributor to both the content and the pain.
Darkness Within - Town. Large contributor.
Georgetown II- Scumfuck. Wasn't really around much myself, but ABR's contribution in this game was concerning.
Brian's Flavorless Mini - Town neighborisor. The game was pretty fast paced but I felt he made a lot of wagons and got his pushes in.
