the short answer of it would be that with scum you can solo the game aka āgive town the RC SHOWā but as town you canāt and on ms.net towns suck more often than not
I donāt remember saying anything like that in the Resistance game. I feel like youāre trying to discredit my ability to read you, but Iām not claiming that I am good at reading you, so w/e.
I waffled a lot on you in Resistance iirc, though when I had to make up my mind, I went with spy.
are you saying you had a town-read on NSG for other reasons as of post #252 for reasons that didnāt involve someone telling you she was more likely to pick town?
but please donāt answer questions directed at others. iāll let you off this time, because you may not have heard about it, but there is a thing called āguapoās lawā that i think you should read about
indeed! i find it often helps when you think a player is scum to paint them in a scummy light! if i painted them in a town light, it would be infinitely harder to lynch them!
fwiw, iāll be serious for the first post in this game a moment and describe why i think youāre scum. i know you picked scum (and i knew you were going to pre-game so this could be considered a bit unfair), so i knew from the beginning that your odds of being scum were better than random. this is partly why i dunno if letting players choose their alignments when they have a tendency to prefer certain alignments is stupid but it happened and weāre here
so my initial vote wasnāt random per se; it was just a better-than-random shot at hitting scum. i didnāt particularly care about your entrance to the game (i figure youād have probably voted me regardless of your alignment) or the stupid āmade her chosenā thing i called a bad attempt at a town-slip but i did not like the hop onto MS
and that was solidified by this incredibly low energy post:
because i could believe youād think this if you were town, but what i do NOT believe is that this is all youād have said about it this late into the game (relatively speaking of course, since MS and alisae both said that in their opening posts)
i think youād have made a much bigger deal about it plus a lot earlier, plus i find it interesting you havenāt even mentioned alisae yet (even though she was one of only two people who were doing this). plus this ignores the fact that scum could have said they chose town (you know, like me!) so i donāt even know why youād bring this up
the recent attempt at trying to dissuade me with claims iād be more competent as town only reminds me of what you tried the last time you were scum against me (except then you couldnāt really call me scum for it because i was STUMPY so you just spent a significant amount of time complaining that iām garbage at reading you and that i should know better)
plus you havenāt accused me of defending MS once, which, you know, if your reads were as you say they are, would have been one of the logical conclusions? iāve been trying to dissuade people from voting MS but that doesnāt seem to register with you or be interesting to you in any way
i suppose i should add that i donāt like the hop onto MS because of how lazy it felt and i think that laziness wasnāt actual laziness but you trying to act lazy or somethingā¦
iām not so great with enunciating this, but i think you were trying to emulate something you think youād do as town in a hollow way
btw, it occurs to me that the town-slip thing is, interestingly enough (at least to me), also something alisae did
which might just be a coincidence or it might have been a pre-planned āact confused about the setup for town credā thing (itās just a thought that occurred to me when remembering that)
that reminds me, i think i said at some point i was gonna talk about why i thought alisaeās scum and i never got around to that
i donāt believe alisaeās push on MS is coming from a sincere place. was kind of meh on the reasoning (granted, itās pretty early on and itās better than nothing, but it felt like the strength with which it was being pushed was above what it should have been)
i also think alisaeās interactions re:cupcake are interesting but only on a āif cupcake is scum, look back at thisā¦ā basis
mostly because i canāt really see why alisae felt the need to interject with that there (like yes, the sentiment isnāt bad and i guess if people are getting too far off-track it can be good to remind them, but people probably are going to read you based on your play and that felt like something that we shouldnāt really need to worry about at that point)
if you do happen to be town, then know that this bop stuff youāre pushing on me is dumb and even if i had some accuracy in reading you previously, my excuse is: itās been two years, the games iām playing right now are my first ones back, i suck
plus i donāt really believe you think iām scum just because iām trying to get you lynched - you should know by now that if i were scum against you as town, youād be someone i keep around for lylo unless there was some necessary reason to kill you off (and no, being chosen wouldnāt constitute a reason - even if you were chosen in this setup, iād just lynch you in lylo). plus i (probably) wouldnāt need to push your lynch very hard either, iād be more inclined to let someone else do it. complain about self-meta all you want, but we both know this is true
on another note, iām trying to remember what i know of fferyās play and whether this relatively-low-content active-lurky style sheās got going this game (at least up until that recent VIOLATION OF GUAPOāS LAW) is par for the course or something to be alarmed about
andā¦
do not like this post but i canāt find a dislike button anywhere so i guess i have to comment on it
Iām not sure why you felt the need to jump the gun on your own question here. What caused your change in read, and what were you looking to get out of your question to Andres?
The reason I asked is that for some reason thatās what I remember hearing about your playstyle, that you tend to seek out townreads first. However your hobnail boots post seemed weighted towards scumreads, while you havenāt actually voted any of them.
