Why does this matter? It's like you're explaining Pooky's own scum viewpoint to Pooky because you don't think he sees itIn post 237, Tuxedo Mask wrote:

I'm less confrontational because we're in the look for good guys phase, not the look for bad guys phase.- Deimos27

I buy it as Pooky's thought process. I also agree with it in theory - you don't accomplish anything by aggressively pushing to everyone 'this guy is SCUM! I'm gonna... not townbloc them!' unless everyone is talking about townreading them. If anything, I think it's a bit weird that Tux is nitpicking beyond Pooky's initial response.In post 242, PookyTheMagicalBear wrote:
that's such an ass-backwards way of building a good town block.In post 237, Tuxedo Mask wrote:You can still make a town block by aggressively scum hunting. You just use POE.
Attacking people to try to make them slip doesn't really work when you're not in the lynching phase of the game. if anything it's a distraction.
Not sure if that's the kind of thought you were looking for on it?- Deimos27

Spoiler:
When it comes to this passage I accidentally quoted earlier, I think Pooky's 233 is excellent in that it accounts for why he's in a cooperative framing rather than a confrontational one. But now that I see it again 242 is horrendous logic and starts to come off as contrived. Attacking people and provoking scumslips is perfectly functional as a strategy in coalition, and such a blatant dismissal gives me the same sense of feigned indignation I earlier observed in Clover.- SleeperSoul

My top two scumreads now are Aldus and Clover. I doubt I'm wrong about both, but the lack of resistance from these slots to the initial coalition makes me think they're maybe not compatible as a team and I need to dodge a deepwolf in the remaining 7 players.- Deimos27

But this is a baseless assumption and none of this statement is true? I mean sure, the catch up is brief but that doesn't mean I have low motivation.

It's not hard to believe that you would disagree about the scumminess of talking D2. It's hard to believe you wouldn't understand such a straightforward formulation of why someone else thinks so. And I put 0 weight in you saying that it isn't something you would do as scum. Scum never thinks they're playing like they do as scum.In post 707, Clover Ebi wrote:

Like without weighing in on the validity of votato's point, I found his argumentation to be perfectly clear, so to respond with supposed indignant confusion comes off as badly faked emotional outcry.- Deimos27

I dunno your 704 read as pretty low motivation to me. But hey, you said that you're good at being townread, so have at it.In post 704, Clover Ebi wrote:
That'd be nice. I feel the pressure to try and catch up on all the pages I missed because I know if I can just get my feet back into the ground I'll be in that coil because if I can do one thing on this site I guess it's be townread but uh yeah coming home from a long day of work and seeing all this is pretty draining. I could probably do a few pages for now though.In post 702, DkKoba wrote:
I have that effect on games...In post 701, Clover Ebi wrote:This game started 2 days ago and there's 700 posts that is impressive to me. Oh boy, I got a lot to get back into. Now time to figure out the best way to do this without draining myself out.
if you'd like a summary I can give you one tomorrow when I'm off of work.- Deimos27

In theory, you're correct that I could do that as scum but as someone who has not flipped scum on this site before and due to my previous scum games else where. Faking emotion has never been a tactic I use. What I didn't understand is why Votato was trying to cut me off about discussing day 2. That just didn't make sense to me. Why do you think it's more likely I'm scum in that case than town?In post 793, Deimos27 wrote:

pedit: That was more me being shocked at the number of pages we're at and being sleepy than anything else. I've been obvious town in my other 2 games on here so I hope I can show that here as well. I feel when I do flip scum one game it'll be extremely obvious. Well, maybe not but it makes worried to think about- Deimos27

That isn't intrinsically illogical. It depends on the 3 players, and the reasoning for why they are being suspected.In post 790, PookyTheMagicalBear wrote:

Attacking people and provoking scumslips is a good strategy in coalition if you see the leading coalition taking off without you and you're sure a certain player on that coalition is scum and shouldn't be included.
When you're putting together the leading coalition - that's a completely different frame of reference - you don't want to muddy the thread with fights over nonsense - you want people to be posting their unfiltered thoughts.Show"I can't even look at the game anymore.
