I think scum are more likely to pick pointless fights thinking it will make them seem townie
So you’re saying I’m picking a fight by not answering RQS?
Not really but idk you're not trying to socialize either and town early can sometimes be more laid back and you don't feel laid back to me rn
Define ‘socialize’ in this context?

I’m not usually laid back when I’m called scum based on nothing, that’s true.

It's hard to articulate

Hit me with a reads list when you feel more caught up and organized

This is what I mean by ‘forced’ - your read on me feels entirely rushed and fabricated.

You say I’m scum for not answering RQS - I ask why is it scummy, you said because scum sometimes pick fights. I ask ‘was I picking a fight by not answering them’ you’re like ‘not really, but you’re scummy for no socializing and not laid back’.

So you’re moving the goalposts, can’t explain what you even mean by socializing in this context, and SR me for not being laid back, which is normal for someone who is being attacked?

I like my vote here for now.

I voted you based on the present conversation we just had, not from having caught up?

Ok but your reasoning for voting me is based on things you think I'm scumreading you for and not the reasons I'm scumreading you for, so it helps to know if you feel caught up or not

In any case I'd still like a reads list when you can

Yeah but then when I invited you to take some solve you decided that the reason you wanted me to be scumreading you was for rqs which I don't even remember talking about so now I feel like you've responded to a 2-man wagon with omgus, strawmanning, and defensiveness. And still 0 solving

Like if you're aware you have a slow start you could come in and solve and be aware people may push you for activity for legitimate reasons but instead you're both aware you're scummy but still feel the need to overreact to the person pushing you

Like accusing me of moving the goalposts is silly when you're the one who set up the goalposts; if you didn't understand the reasons for my scumread you'd probably ask. I feel like I was pretty clear that my main problem with you was the lack of obvtowning when I feel you're capable of it

Strawmanning? You literally said I was scum for not answering RQS, don’t try to make out I’m misreppng you.

I’ve defended myself by being defensive? Oh, how awful.

I’ve already said I will catch-up when I get home, that doesn’t mean I shouldn’t engage you right now on what I feel is an opportunistic push.

You do yourself a disservice, dsj! :P
I guess the other way of saying a lack of socializing would be to say that this feels like a "wolfy pop in" although I don't like that phrase. But the concept is there insofar as up until now you come into the thread, leave 2-3 posts that engage with no one present, and then vanish

Ah, so I was the one who said I’m scum for avoiding RQS?

I’ve engaged you on all your reasons for SR’ing me, you’re zoning in on that one because you know it’s the most ridiculous and now you’re trying to distance yourself from it.

Going now, will be back later with my catch-up.

This is not saying you're scum because you didn't answer rqs, it's saying you didn't answer rqs because you're scum. And it was also half joking

2-engaging me is not what I asked for

No sense to rush, the more time spent discussing the better. Dangle that noose for scum to slip their neck through.

Why'd you unvote, Doro? And to answer your question: if it's a vague indirect reference to an on going game, would probably not mention it. But otherwise, I'd let them know they shouldn't be doing that.
WHY do you "kinda like" natsu's answers?

I'm quite new, so is it okay if I lurk this game and try to learn from the more experienced people? Also, should we mass claim? It could be useful to talk about who we target in the night. I will start: I am the Town Goon. I am not allowed to target anyone in the night.

If we convince town to lynch one of the SE's today then we can NK the other

I fail to see why you like his post 28.

Last game I played, the "placeholder vote" - "ill park my vote here for now, for no good reason at all" - sort of vote , ended up being a vote by scum.
And i think this kind of move is scummy. I think townies are more likely to change their mind and shift their votes organically, rather than b stilted, which i think is scummy.

Based entirely on RVS posts, which is what I said before.
I'm pretty sure we have moved past RVS - my definition of RVS phase anyway. Players have stated FoSes and have switched votes.
There is now some, yes limited, but some material to go off now
