My exact question.
ngl it's really hard to defend this site to my friends when this is a known meta here lol.
I think town does this more than scum. Town know they are town, but they will occasionally do scummy stuff. When someone calls them out for it, the player might be like "wth, I'm town why are you SRing me, you must be scum!" The problem is that they can't look through the other player's POV, and see that their actions were actually scummy. Whereas I feel scum would be more paranoid and acknowledge the SR.

uhh this seems like blatant buddying. NDMath said he does it, but it's sorta funny how obvious this is.

I don't like your heavy handed posts, Starbuck. If you were town I'd expect more light-heartedness and fun. It seems you're under pressure of not being discovered.

You're parroting farside. Maybe my lightheartedness went out the window with RVS.


I mean, did you completely miss my fluff joke pointed at you? I feel like you did and I feel like I wasted a good joke.

Starbucks lets say Spring went totally rogue and tossed you the chain what would you do with it?

I've kind of given up on ABR because he just doesn't intend on playing until day 2 apparently.

When it comes to the chain I think there's benefit in giving to people you scumread, this may seems backwards but you're putting them in a position to commit to a read either way. If people are just throwing the chain around like hypothetical townblocks this can become an issue if the townblock is incorrect

I mean I think you should just give it to a town read.
Don't you want your scum reads to have it towards the end when they have a smaller selection.

Spring hands it to lets say, Math.
Math hands it to me.
oh boi what a hard choice lmao.

And to create the world with smaller pools for the scum reads to pick from you have to pick your top town read anyway.

The person you scumread is going to get the chain either way, so they will have to eventually make some sort of decision. I don't think it matters whether they get it early or late.

I just like the idea of accountability. I can't see town just synchronizing on who gets left out and it's gonna come down to the 2nd to the last person probably. That's where I think a strong townread matters IMO

I feel like the arguments might get to a point where we have a plan, but the second to last person gets tilted and passes the chain to the person we wanted killed. I hope this doesn't happen lol

I'd probably give it to you or Raya.

I've been spending tonight adding some of my MtG cards to Ebay and thinking about the game, and my neutral read on you went ultra town. For as much as whatever I said probably annoyed you, you didn't lose your cool or beat me about the head. It's others doing so in your stead. You, at least, understood where I was coming from where farside and SirCakez have been trying to build cases out of a misunderstanding. It's lame.

On Raya, I've really appreciated her input. She's asked questions and answered them, gave some opinions, and is genuinely contributing.


I also realized that I mixed up terms. I was saying that SirCakez was whiteknighting you and I meant to say buddying.

I know I shouldn't be defending a scum read but I'll restate this once again because I am spending a lot of time thinking about the Starbucks.

I think Starbucks and ABR aren't likely to be scum together given how they keep prodding each other. I think both players are scummy and I think thats a consensus among the thread. The issue of piling on Starbucks is I don't think any of actually have the insight or enough information to be able to identify which one of them is actually town.

I am going to go reread TSE vs
Kosmos
unwnd and if I never give an update I just thought it was annoying to read and don't have thoughts on it.
