Which has nothing to do with why you're voting me, okay okay

I mean I’m voting you for the reasons I gave, I also find your trajectory and read on me scummy and I don’t see how the one invalidates the other?

...but it was a joke, which, again, was explained by the time that you doubled down on your read?

Okay, but you’re also just not making any sense

Your take is: mena gave a forced readslist, therefore is scum, yes?

Problems

(1) that’s like a really strong take to be pushing as hard as you are

(2) it was a joke, which had already been explained by the time you doubled down on scum!me

(3) in the case that you missed it was a joke/just didn’t find it funny, that still doesn’t explain why you thought it was scummy once it was clear that it was intended as a joke, unless you think that bad jokes = scum in which case I can’t help you bro

Yo Dann, teacher, haven, dunn — this feels like I’m being dealt with in very bad faith, but I find it hard to judge when I’m the one someone is aiming at

Do you think that’s accurate to what’s happening or am I reading too much into this?

With any luck, both of them will fall for the gambler's fallacy and NK me, effectively reducing NKs by 1.
I assume youre just playing along with Gypyx's joke but if not why do you think mafia/werewolf would target the other faction this early?
Partly - it makes sense to me that scum would try to take each other down so they could control the game state, Prisoner's dilemma style. They could hunt PRs, but risk being picked off if the other team isn't doing that.

I didn't like the way she came in (and I remember hearing a stat that new scum have a higher tendency to say a greeting in their first post). Haven't really felt anything towny since.

Actually it's multiball, so dann/menal could be opposing scum. EXCITING PROSPECTS!

Because I’d made very few posts at that point and want you to justify why you were saying you thought I was probably scum

I'm not new scum, have played 30+ games on MU (4/5 scum winrate btw... please don't ask about my town winrate) Also that stat is dumb even if I was new scum.

So - let's be clear. Even though you believed that there was nothing substantial behind it -
In post 124, Menalque wrote:But using only in-game material, you having a strong scumread on me that you’ve reiterated from what are 5 very NAI posts from me is Not A Good Look
You decided to say that me calling you scum 4 times was a "hard" push? What exactly constitutes as a "soft" push then? Is it when you just think about the person?

Still looking in my dictionary btw - I think the word is operational. Hmm...no, that's not it. I'm almost there.

I think he has the highest chance of flipping scum right now. His reaction to the two of us voting him is the most egregious post I think.

Right now, I think he's reached a point where he initially latched on to something to scum read, realized it wasn't as damning as he initially thought it was, but now doesn't know how to back down from that without looking more scummy. It's possible that comes from awkward/stubborn town, particularly one that has a philosophy of not interacting with scum reads?? But with #98 I rather doubt it.
