You actually haven't fully explained your read on me. You usually just give a weak reason and then ask for why people TR me... I haven't seen a scumcase yet.

Example:
In post 4008, MariaR wrote:My EP scumread is the one that's hardest for me to get. Because it's based on his competence level. Sure, I liked our talk and I understand his reasoning now. But that first post was before it was even close to optimal. Why do people tr him?
Going back to your stance though:
His content just doesn't make sense coming from town with the new angles
What content, specifically? And what new angles?

Can someone reiterate their case on EP? I think I would feel better with a DV wagon but I just haven't been following the case on EP at all

It's because there isn't one. Anyone with a hard SR on me keeps giving cagey answers at best.

I don't case people.

I've openly said your reasons for flipping your reads are clearly opportunistic. Using neighborhood logic to base a scumread on someone is awful. You used that to flip a strong townread on me to your biggest scumread. That doesn't just happen randomly and I've seen no progression from you at all. When I tried to get in your head and see why you think the rb hood had scum I explained and got no answer in return. When we had that long talk you were 'surprised' my read didn't change on you. I fully believe that was your attempt at trying to make me townread you and when that didn't happen you changed your read. Combine that with my previous points and there you go. I wanted to see if I was wrong on you because you and fl are in the same hood so you're probably not both scum, so obviously I'm wrong. I don't know where, but this is a better outcome.

To be fair, both A50 and I are have been staying we think you’re a deepwolf, so I think it’s fair for him to scum read you.

That's a buzz word. You can literally call anyone in this playerlist a 'deep wolf' without context on why that's just useless shading. If you think I'm a deep wolf case why I'm scum.

Said the same thing about me too. Those reads are completely flipped. Ankamius is just scum who had to shut us down.

Look at Maria right now.

The fact the wagon is going onto DV instead of one of the two of them is laughable.

I have used context. I use buzzwords, that’s like the premise of my town game. I even make up my own buzz words.

You’re pushing scum agenda, and now you just happened to come in when partnerAnkamius was getting scum read.

Like even if other scum are to go down, the deepwolf is getting setup to go deep into the game and take it all.

Show me the question I avoided. As you'll see below, I've answered several (if not all) of your questions, despite you not doing so in return.

You realize my shift on your slot came after the roleblock and town investigative reveals, right? My progression on that is very clear in my ISO.

What other reads have I flipped (besides yours) and why were those flips opportunistic?

Why is using neighbourhood logic awful? You used it to townlock your whole neighbourhood, so I'm not sure why you're so against it when I use it.

Quotes below to prove my above points:

Nom is suggesting that MariaR and one of Dave/DV are scum. The scum in the invest would would tell the scum in the RB hood to block the invest hood. I think A50 brought this up earlier.

I think our power and LMS is pretty likely an all town hood. All the powers were going to be outted at one point. Obviously you're going to leash the roleblocker. There's no reason for you to put scum in that hood considering the fact it'd be useless. However, I'm townreading both my hoodmates regardless.

About the 'below outcome' [1]who is likely to be scum in DV/Dave and [2]are you pushing for there lynch rn? [EP's edit - added numbers]
1. DV. I already said I'd vote him over Dave.
2. Not really... which you would know if you were reading my posts. Either you're skipping my posts or you already know the answer to your question. If it's the latter, you're just trying to set up a push on me.

As it stands:
I'd vote nom in the nom/FB pair.

I'd vote DEB in the DEB/Gamma pair.

I'd vote DV in the dave/DV pair.

I think 1 scum is in MariaR/kuribo/panth. I'm leaning MariaR.

You’re pushing scum agenda, and now you just happened to come in when partnerAnkamius was getting scum read.
So basically you have no real reason to call me scum and you’re just making it up as you go? Gotcha. That’s called paranoia. I’ll wait for you to do something convincing.
In post 4689, EspressoPatronum wrote:Show me the question I avoided. As you'll see below, I've answered several (if not all) of your questions, despite you not doing so in return.
You answered the First and second question I asked. But when I gave you a reason why the all roleblock hood is unlikely to be scum you just, didn’t comment and that’s something I would expect you to do if that’s your reason for flipping it.
In post 4689, EspressoPatronum wrote:Why is using neighbourhood logic awful? You used it to townlock your whole neighbourhood, so I'm not sure why you're so against it when I use it.
You’re using mechs to scumread me. While I’m using actions people do and the play itself. We’re not even doing anything close to the same thing.
In post 4689, EspressoPatronum wrote:You realize my shift on your slot came after the roleblock and town investigative reveals, right? My progression on that is very clear in my ISO.
Yet you never made any comment on that.

First of all we don’t even know what kind of invest it is, or who they gave it to. If scum are in that hood like you believe why couldn’t we just scum kill whoever was getting voted? Combine that with the fact, if I am scum with someone in that hood obviously I wouldn’t be the one to bring it up because that would leave a clear link to me and the scum in the invest one. That’s, just basic mafia. I feel like you’re just trying to find something to latch onto over thinking of the possibilities like you love to do so much.

I’m not making it. You have classic “scum caught for what they think are the wrong reasons”

I feel that’s how you play scum anyways. Town shouldn’t be able to catch you. The fact that I don’t have anything major is exactly why you’re a deepwolf in this position. You are cushioned because for you to go down, you need other people to flip before the majority of this game would consider going after you. That’s the epitome of a deep wolf.

You discredit and shade because that’s all you have to do, when in actuality, you are pretty strongly POE’d out of here.

EP is town.

I said you have not fully explained your read of me. You said that is false. I asked you to quote the posts (ie. Prove that my statement is false).

Not only did you fail to quote any posts supporting your claim, you also tried to move the benchmark for what were arguing. Calling me scum is not the same as explaining your read on me.

You're asking me to reread your ISO to find something that I've already stated isn't there.

It's not discredit and shade when it's pure fact that you're just using useless buzzwords that mean nothing because you have no reasons to scumread me. You haven't voted me. You haven't voted who you think my partner is. Honestly if you did anything that made a little bit of sense maybe I could see this logically but you're just wasting my time. 'Deep wolf' nothing.

I don’t really vote until i feel it’s time to vote, because my votes are always catalysts for something. You can meta that. I sit on my vote for a while.

I’m clearly stating who I think is scum, I don’t need my vote to say it for me.
