Sure, if that's what you want to call it.In post 438, Racer64 wrote:So we're scumteam via convenience? That's rather misleading. By the format you used in your read, you made it seem as though those were your concrete possibilities.In post 437, Kaori Miyazono wrote:Because I had both you and kraska left over. I was thinking there is definitely scum in RC/House ,and in you two, but Kraska makes more sense as a partner to RC and by comparison that puts you and house together.
I felt like one of the two of House/RC was town and one was scum.
I have townreads on everyone else, but I can't figure out you two. Kraska makes more sense as an RC partner.
"my words" were sarcasm listing things I was actually doing. I had RC as a pocket read that I wasn't remotely confident about, but at the time I frankly ignored it because I'm stubborn enough to not back down from a challenge in the heat of things, but upon reevaluation after sleeping (mind you: when I was posting yesterday I had like 6 hours of sleep after a close/open and I have been up for like 16 hours. It's no excuse, but it lets you get some better idea of why I probably wasn't thinking entirely lucid. I still posted and you still have to judge accordingly.)In post 439, House wrote:When you can, is appreciate it if you could explain why you did such a sudden turnaround from desperately trying to lynch me (your words) to accepting the possibility that I could be town.
I still am bothered by what I pointed out earlier, but I doubt you want me to go into why I am backing off of you for the time being.
The only issue is I'm not really trying to deflect a lynch. Nor are my recommendations for who should be lynched baseless. As a player, my strength more lies in finding town than finding scum anyways (Which actually can be verified, that's something I normally try to do!)In post 440, kraska77 wrote:Seriously? Is this your attempt at deflecting a lynch. I am pretty sure you're scum now. If by some weird chance you are saying the truth and you're town, then not only did you play pretty badly, but you're also making baseless recs for future lynches. You're scum though, period. And I'm not letting this lynch not happen. I think we only need two more votes. There is no need to rush though, I'm going to see who will buy your shit.
there is no reason for me to follow your read on dp, it amounts to nothing more than meta. Likewise i did not give much weight to the experienced player's comments on RC, i just put him out of the picture of day 1 because I know his voting patterns will speak more volumes than the explanations he won't make (and gets away with not making for some weird reason). Just because I've not paid much attention to him on this day doesn't mean I won't in day 2 (if i stay alive, that is).
But, if my accusations are baseless, why did you feel the need to suddenly defend yourself against them?
Just because I never outright said "I am an alt of an experienced player" does not mean I portrayed myself as a newbie. You equated my newer account to that, it was on you. Yes, I understand there are multiple reasons to place votes. But calling votes "pressure votes" makes them lose their power. The reason they are pressuring someone is that they are bringing them closer to a lynch, which is what I was saying. Everything I shared related to theory are things I actually believe, which won't mean much to you now but once I flip green you will realize I'm telling the truth.In post 441, House wrote:@Kaori: The reason my vote is still on you is because I still think your pushes on me were based on deception and manipulation. I can't get past your attempts to portray yourself as a newbie to get away with making such elementary accusations.
My read on you had nothing to do with meta at all. In all honesty, your play is the one experienced person in this game I remember very little of (not to be rude or anything, I just frankly don't.) The things I pointed out about your over the top defensiveness were legitimate concerns on your gameplay in this game. It was not equated to meta nor did I ever try to make it (in fact, the only person who tried to equate it to meta was you, to which I linked that post that showed you I read it. Revisit everything I've said, I never once made it about meta. You said I should know this is how you are as town, to which I replied that.In post 441, House wrote:I gambit my ass off in games, but I just can't see how you could be so dead certain I was scum without even talking to me. I told RC he didn't know my IC game a long time ago... and you even quoted it, so I know you read it. That should have told you that my play might be different than what you were expecting to see from me as town.
So to answer your question, I didn't have "an expectation" of you as town. I saw you acting buddy buddy with those defending you and flipping out on those accusing you, and that bothered me. Along with the other things I brought up.
I would also like to point out how Kraska's grown much more urgent in the desire to lynch me since I set her in my sights.
