Surely this is a violation of the rule against discussing ongoing games? Mentioning someone is in other games is okay, but talking about activity level is describing content from there.In post 0, DragonEater70 wrote: Post ITT things you hate being scumread for (as town, or as scum, or both).

You can get away with it if you find cross site activity outside of mafia games (e.g. posting in mafia discussion) or wait for the game to finishIn post 3, Aureal wrote:

"last time I was scum with Firebringer
his first post in the scum PT was "yes I rolled scum!"
I decided to post "haha just don't post that in the main thread", but to get up to date on the main thread first.

Seeming uncertain and nervous, and "overexplaining" when not explaining makes it look like moon logic. Add sounding stiff or stilted to the list too. All of this is just ORAM indicative, not scum indicative- usesPython

I mainly dislike low-depth scumreads that don’t actually probe into anything meaningful and just go “grr I don’t like this so it’s scummy”<Embrace The Void>

I have a pretty busy work life so I make it a point to never intentionally lurk or be inactive as town or scum. If I'm not posting it's just because I got busy and isn't indicative of alignment. Not that activity/inactivity is a great scumtell anyway.When there's trouble, you call DW.

Actually, in this game that just ended you have a player who never even posted outside of game threads (TP), being called out for ellitelling (posting in other games but not this one):In post 4, usesPython wrote:

But it's somehow acceptable due to weasel wording that doesn't directly mention the other game.In post 2838, T3 wrote:
TP has recently been ellitelling too - she asked jjh to towncase me, jjh said something to the effect of "I'll point the specific posts out to you at some point," at which point TP visited the site and posted elsewhere but didn't do anything here despite jjh's response.In post 2805, jjh927 wrote: Very much feels like they're trying to appear to be doing more than they are doing
but yeah if I'm going to respond to that request to towncase T3 then I will do it in real time, because I think I've set out quite succinctly what makes T3 town and it's there if you actually look for it- Jake The Wolfie
