eh i think that exchange was scummy tbh
hes locked in, feels like he can't get off it at this point, this is what he's going with
the logic behind his push feels off, i know i said it was NAI before but like when truth says something like "im a mason miller, need docs on me tonight" it shows he fundamentally misunderstands the game, yes, but it isn't scummy, and the way osuka continues to insist that it is makes less and less sense from a town mindsetI am the fly, I am the fly, I am the fly, I am the fly, fly in the, fly in the ointment- GuiltyLion

completely agree with popopopopopopopopopopopopopop
it also feels to me like Osuka's trying not to spew by not giving any holistic reads on the game state nor most slots individually"I think I no longer believe in monsters as faces in the floor or feral infants or vampires or whatever. I think at seventeen now I believe the only real monsters might be the type of liar where there's simply no way to tell. The ones who give nothing away"- Cat Scratch Fever

everything until 221 is shallow but im willing to forgive that since the beginning of the game can be slow
221 you have a tr-ish on me
227 you sound suspicious of truth
231 iioa
276 you think me vs quick is tvt
499 tr on glitch
537 is bad justification for a vote that feels is just meant to put more momentum behind a wagon
562 you still mention me vs quick as tvt
1054 you say that your read on nauci actually flipped
1147 you vote me
you literally never engaged my slot directly and the only mentions of anything resembling a read on me implied or meant I was town in your opinion. this strikes me as very opportunistic for a few reasons:
1. glitch made a big case on you in 1090 and put you at 3 votes (second most at the time)
2. you never expressed a scumread on me
3. GL had voteparked me, so you wouldn't be The Only Vote™ on me
of particular note is the fact that norwi voted me not a minute after that,andhe was previously on your wagon (distancing?)

unfortunately I can't really tell you why you should townread me other than the fact that i'm town and i've been playing wincon, so i can tell you for a fact that everything i've done this game was from a town mindset. i can't read myself _and_ i got a role PM that tells me my alignment so I'm doubly biased, that's a fucking loaded question"I would also like to reiterate my claim that Osuka is sort of obviously town" - rc about scumsuka

I am trying hard to follow and understand the push against osuka, for real, but it's just not clicking with me. I've had him null for so long and still going through his iso there's so many things that pull me both directions I just have such a null read on him. His lack of voting is sketch at best, and yet these posts are spot on:
In post 1412, osuka wrote:
i honestly don't know for sure who exactly is scum on the wagon, but i can tell you for a fact that it either started with scum motivation, or was put into overdrive by scum. As previously pointed out by someone other than me, wagons rarely pick up this quickly and sustain themselves for this long without some scum motivationIn post 1387, NorwegianboyEE wrote:The only noteworthy read of Osuka right now is CSF!Scum. And he's basically done nothing to convince us of it other than say "he be playing scummy". And saying scum is on his wagon. (no indication of who though)
I don't think there's enough valid content from osuka to make a definite judgement that he is scum, while there is even more reason now to suspect Cat Scratch. Can we break down CSF's progression on osuka?In post 1411, osuka wrote:
do you see this shit? this is a scumpostIn post 1381, Truth wrote:Should we hammer osuka now? I would like to get to the next day.
Reminder for doctors to protect me please!
there is a wagon most people are happy with on L-1 and there are days until deadline AND there is a very active discussion happening around said wagon. If this is not a very deliberate attempt at ending discussion early, i don't know what is
Spoiler: Cat Scratch Fever on osuka
Let's break each quote down.
- 221 - Early game towered on osuka
- 276 - Reads the Quick v Osuka fight as TvT
- 280 - osuka is Towny independent of the Quick v Osuka fight, ANDis Towny because he’s TvT,ANDon top of that he is gut reading osuka as town
- 562 - Reaffirms TvT read on osuka/Quick
- Absolutely nothingfrom CSF regarding osuka for the next 500+ posts
- 1107 - osuka throws a little shade in Cat’s direction
- 1118 - osuka throws more shade at Cat
- 1147 - Cat Scratch out of the blue votes for osukaopenly sheeping Nauci and for not using his vote.
- 1425 - Unvotes when the wagon gets serious and there’s an actual chance of lynching osuka.
Additionally, I think osuka makes a strong, pro-town point in the second quote at the top (1411). Earlier in the thread there was a discussion on why it's pro-townnotto use all of our time, and I think I read a counter argument that it is pro-town to use the time if we have it. Muddying up the waters with tons of posts that make it hard for us to go back and read is not a solid argument, though, for ending a day early. The way I see it you have two options that determine whether or not ending the day early is pro-town or not.
First, if the discussion is dragging out, dying, and stalled... then yes, it is pro-town to end the day and keep things moving. If town is not in the drivers seat and no one is driving at all it gives scum an opportunity to take the reigns and control the conversation, spam up the thread, and wait it out until the end of the day when everyone panic-votes themselves into a mislynch. Second scenario, discussion is alive and active with strong content being produced and active gameplay dominated every RL day. This creates an difficult environment for the scum to survive, because they're forced to participate in the open or be suspected for trying to coast under the radar. It gives us more opportunity to evaluate our options and avoid a mislynch. For example, hypothetically I'm thinking if so many are on board with an osuka lynch (one that isn't totally solid), then it ispro-mafiato try and end the day early rather than giving everyone time to sort through this case and giving osuka a chance to explain. It is pro-town to take more time to let the scum hang their own noose, like I have clearly set out above with Cat Scratch's cheap shift onto osuka that we would not have had a chance to dive into had we ended the day early.
So it's not a hard-and-fast rule that ending the day early is pro-town. It is pro-town to let the day go on until we are confident in a scum lynch, and if that means it takes a long time, that's fine. If we get to that point sooner rather than later and there's not much more to talk about, then end the day early and get to business. But the latter is not the case in our game. If it creates more content for us to sift through and makes our job harder because we have to do more reading, then man up and just deal with it. You have more stuff to evaluate. That's a good thing. Maybe this is just a longer game that takes more time than a normal one. Don't be lazy, work hard to find the right lynch.
Vote stays on CSF and I'd encourage y'all to move your votes too.- osuka

look at how two people pointed out the exact same thing independently of each other

Is the CSF wagon finally happening?
VOTE: Cat Scratch Fever
Prediction: Quick will somehow find this scummy even though he's been screaming about me asking to consolidate onto CSF for fifty billion pages.“There is nothing so dangerous for anyone who has something to hide as conversation! A human being [...] cannot resist the opportunity to reveal himself and express his personality which conversation gives him. Every time he will give himself away.” -Hercule Poirot- osuka

If I was saying you need to consolidate to Cat, you would have a point, but I never said anything even remotely close to that, so you don't really have a point at all.In post 1435, Blair wrote:Quick will somehow find this scummy even though he's been screaming about me asking to consolidate onto CSF for fifty billion pages.I was anything worse than you!

additionally i would say that ending the day early is almost universally pro-scum by virtue of stifling discussionIn post 1431, Glitch wrote:So it's not a hard-and-fast rule that ending the day early is pro-town"I would also like to reiterate my claim that Osuka is sort of obviously town" - rc about scumsuka

I don't think I need a reason to engage you before voting you. I can always engage you after voting for you. After all, here I am, still talking to you.

Do you think osuka did enough to sustain my early TR on him? His engagement dropped off at some point, and it made perfect sense to reverse my read there.In post 1431, Glitch wrote: This reads as shit. Clear TR on osuka while it's easy up to halfway through the game, then drop off and say nothing about him. Let a long time pass and then as soon as osuka pushes even a little bit on you, you vote against him for bs reasons. That's some scummy shit setting yourself up to be able to say, "Well I had good reasons, Nauci just said them already," but that's just an easy excuse not to make your own case or bring original content or reasoning to the table. Why we would lynch osuka who is confusing AF as opposed to CSF who is clearly scum doesn't make sense to me.
The idea that people need original reasons to vote someone is very wrong. It's important to recognize a good case when you see it, so town doesn't run around in different directions like headless chickens.- Blair
