Stop responding the way you've been responding, it's not helpful. If you're calm, control should be easily attainable and I shouldn't have to ask.

Ok, but just because you say I need to calm down doesn't mean I'm not calm. If you showed where you think I was being uncouth it would help me understand where you're coming from with saying that.

However, telling me to calm down is going to have the normal reaction for most people, i.e. not the one you're advocating for...

I don't know if you aren't understanding what I'm saying or if you are being intentionally obtuse.

My default read on jingle is town. Jingle needs to show scum mentality for me to change that read. Jingle hasn't done that, so defualt setting is still in acted.

I honestly don't care if you guys lynch me. I replaced in to help move the game along. If you all agree that my death tells you something about who is scum, then vote away.
FF has a lot of individual scum cred for posts like this
Than lynch me bro. I'm not sure how me stating the obvious that I am much less invested in the outcome of this game as other people in here are. I joined the game because I saw that NSG wasn't getting any offers to replace in and I'm waiting on other games to fill. If you wanna lynch this slot to move the game forward than let's get it the fuck on.
What kind of attitude is this? Really?

I've played mostly consistently with a few long stretches of time in between.

And I doubt many people would agree to this, but I'm more reserved in my play, less frantic with my votes and reads. I have been working on building reads from interactions and not confbiasing as much. I've been spending a lot of time in the newbie list to try and refine my scum hunting. It's going with mixed results.

Enter, that's not me being mad man. That's literally me saying that if you guys feel like my lynch will move the game forward than go for it. No malice to that, no animosity.

If all I'm going to be is lynch bait for the rest of the game because of gamestate reads then I'd rather just eat rope than try and argue against a boogyman.

I've got at least three players trying to give up and eat rope and it's not helpful in the slightest. I need people to figure out what they're doing and how to spew themselves town. The idea that you're going to be the lynch in the back of everyone's head comes from those times when you escaped lynch by AtE. AtE town reads rarely last very long, in my experience, but solid pro town play really helps the game move forward and can get you into a more solid town position. I need players to do that instead of trying to give up and get themselves lynched.

Your responses and approach very much feel like you're trying to take advantage of inexperience and the way you talk feels like its straight out of the newbie queue. I was trying to figure out why you sound like a newbie without necessarily playing like one.

My theory was that it was possible you just hadn't played a lot of scum and you were new to scum and trying to use techniques there? Also the way you tried to scum read Dann coming out of it reads like you're trying to read new scum.

If my slot is one that others are sticking on then my lynch does clear that up. Once I'm dead and flipped town people won't be able to hide behind my push. All the associative reads with me as scum will vanish in an instant and you guys will have a different game state. I've come to figure out some slots just need to die for town to get over themselves. My slot might be one of those slots.

I know Enter asked me to do a thing but i didnt rly have time for a big ol assignment right then
Caught up tho

Im not rly getting scumvibes from Fish here. The townvibes are weak but theyre there and nothing strikes me as esp inconsistent in a thought process sortve way
Then again I wasnt rly convinced on Fish scum before

Pedit: I felt this way earlier and I kinda doubt Fish is just parroting what ive already said

I rly dont like this at all
Why are my posts from before mcqueens flip when i thought he had a good shot of being scum supposed to smoothly transition to how i felt seeing his townflip and seeing his posts in twilight
And also my post to mcqueen was responding to something specific he had said in twilight that hadnt happened yet at those preflip quotes you quoted so like???

Also idk where you got that i think my possibility of getting MLed is funny
