Where the heck did everyone go?

Also, did some rereading over Rock and commented below:

I disagree with you on this. I think that contradictions, in general, are scum behavior. Scum has to lie and if they don't keep track of their lies, they contradict themselves. clidd did explain himself later, which you can take it or leave it, but I don't think it's scummy to call out a contradiction.
So RVS votes with poor reasoning are inherently scummy?
That's a step town wouldn't miss when using the tell.
Wait a fricking minute here. So first you say that Pragdoid automatically equated contradictions to scumminess, then Chumbo makes a really good point, and now you say that Pragdoid's SR on clidd stems from an RVS vote with poor reasoning? Just what.
Also, clidd's contradiction was weird. He contradicted himself on
the same page
. I can't believe he already forgot that he used "hello" as a tell to SR Trendall.

Wait, weren't we talking about contradictions? When did this become a talk about RVS votes? Anyways, I feel like there is still a contradiction in that sequence of events. I'd like to bring up clidd's post again:

clidd is first mafia on the basis that he supposed loves to use meta, but didn't check back to see if this is just something I commonly do and instead thinks it's like a generalised 'tell'. These two lines of thinking aren't compatible with each other so mafia.

VOTE: clidd
I don't think there is a tell for "hello" that confirms that someone is a mafia.

And I feel like you're doing mental gymnastics by assuming that I "love" using meta (I never said I do, only that I used it in the past often), as well as ignoring the context of me being away from the site and the influence that would have in the way I'm playing.
"I don't think there is a tell for "hello" that confirms that someone is a mafia" sounds like "saying hello does not confirm someone to be mafia". Then why use your RVS vote on him instead of me? I had some awkward behavior in Page 1...

So, it sounds like some contradiction is in play here. "confirms" doesn't mean "100%", you know.

I'm inclined to say Rock has a good chance of having partner equity with clidd, since he is defending clidd from a contradiction attack and TR's clidd out of gut, but I'm not ready to accept this whole take yet since Rock hasn't shown anything that scumpings me directly. I also think that clidd has much more evidence against him then Rock, if clidd flips red we definitely want to watch Rock D2.

So, I assume you are likely never going to defend yourself against my meta attack?

I don't like this...but at least wagons are gaining traction. If your wagon was going by with no resistance I would be definitely suspicious of gamestate right now...

Am I wrong to think that one is a subset of the other? The 'contradiction' is NAI, the same way it's NAI to give a completely random reason (which isn't seriously thought to be the case) to substantiate an RVS vote.

:thonk: :thonk: :thonk:
Sure, bad reads != scummy in a vacuum, but my readlist in the previous page should appear to be obv!scum to any towny reading it. I state my opinion on how I think it's scummy to go along with the consensus, and immediately proceed to make a polarizing readlist with the most unsubstantiated garbage reads. That should look like maf trying not to contradict themselves while failing to give good reasoning in this context, and the fact that you didn't notice this points to you being scum more often than not due to TMI.

I'm pissed. Just. plain. pissed. Rock is really triggering me right now from his responses. I'm taking a break after this.

Oh, so now you vote me because you want to follow up on your "TMI" claim. Isn't TMI better than any reason you had against Lavar? Why did you only put me at a scumlean and not straight up vote me from the start? Out of proportion? Don't give me this bullcrap.

tbf Everyone was surprised where the heck that vote from Lavar came from. It was completely against the flow.
Rockhopper wrote: Why not? And how does that matter as a response to my read?
Don't gimme this burden of proof bullcrap. Purposely making bad reads is such a sub-optimal play for town I don't understand why you would do it. And this isn't a response to your read.

Hm. Maybe I did but...

I'm almost convinced Rock is the other scum alongside clidd now, Rock SR'ed me for TMI, an absurdly strong tell, a tell way stronger than anything Rock had against Lavar, and yet all he says is:

Interesting. You are now a scum lean.
No vote, no nothing. His scumlean came nearly
7 hours
before he explained the reasoning, which I assume either he constructed a case against me in those 7 hours because he needed to push me, or his reasoning for the scumlean was already set as TMI. If he constructed a case on the go, that just screams scum trying to progress the push of my miselimination and if he already had his scumlean set as "I had TMI", then him not voting there is indecisive scum who doesn't want to push me here.

He literally admitted to purposely creating a f***** up readlist, which is beyond sub-optimal play for town.

He says "bad reads =/= scummy" in a vacuum? He should know this is blatantly false (from plain experience), as bad reads are not a direct scumtell.

He is using burden of proof to deflect the fact that he is making bad reads.

(burden of proof is a logical fallacy, when used to deflect the person that is using this fallacy is trying to divert attention from one aspect of their argument)

Hm. Is it me or is it just so coincidental that when I start using emotions to pressure him, he leaves the chat? I must say....

VOTE: Rockhopper

clidd's meta case is a good case but this is just actually terrible coming from Rock.
