ok a few things:In post 4169, Prism wrote:First, I think yesterday was a great chance to just whiteknight/refuse to be on the wagon given that enough town were willing to just shut their brain off and vote with their friends. The fact that you seem to be looking primarily onwagon kind of confuses me. This might be just a difference of opinion, but looking at this from my perspective:
The offwagon squad was me, you, DGB, benhalkum, and Elements. Ele was town. Ben is confirmed town/can only be scum with me. This is what makes me think I actually might have to deal with you being scum and run interference instead of putting it off until the end of time. I've never thought you were very town to begin with (most of your positioning has felt extremely strategic to me), and with the Elements flip I'm much more skeptical for this and the PoE narrowing to begin with. Part of me says "Who cares? Just let her steamroll.", part of me does want to run interference.
Second, with the above in mind, and the knowledge that I have openly refused to reread you despite promising to for literally like a month now, you just......really aren't worried about it. I'm not in your PoE/high priority is plausible. I'm sure if I asked why you'd be able to cook something up without much trouble. But leaving me be is extremely beneficial for scum Skitter.
- it is absolutely in my scumrange to sit there yesterday and wk town!elements, so no particular complaints with that read/fear/complaint.
- i'm not looking primarily onwagon, in that it's not a super relevant piece of information for me. honestly offhand i don't know who was on and who was off. ffery/cabd/bork and ... i don't know who the others are. it's not about who ultimately ended up being on/off to me, it's more abt how they were approaching the wagon and how much they resisted it. and again, bork and ffery both occupy that 'ehhhhh token resistance but cabd/notsci wanted it so whatever' niche that i imagine scum occupied yesterday
- (aside i'm p sure that bork was offwagon day1 too? if yes that also points more to scum!bork than scum!ffery)
- also looking at the list of people who were off ... just isn't that much room for scum there, it would have to be exactly you (and/or with ben)
- the thing is that with my poe ...i feel like it makes a lot of sense, i'm explaining how/where i'm arriving at my conclusions, and very little has happened to indicate that i'm wrong, so i feel p comfortable with it. like if i'm wrong i'm happy for someone to explain how and why but as of right now i'm just not seeing it. this is what the game looks like to me just now
- bork/ffery occupy a higher priority push than you do right now; for reasons explained above i have a lot of reasons to think there's scum there, and i don't have nearly as many to think/worry abt you. you're like on a lower tier priority once the scum in bork/ffery gets resolved. like rn i wanna take care of that, and once that's done, i can go and reassess and reevaluate elsewhere. i'm like 95% certain there's scum there, but i don't think they're both scum and so there's scum outside that group (i.e. in you/pooky/vax) but i mildly townread all three of you and just feel like at this very moment i don't need to make a determination which of the 3 it is because i'm already p confident i found scum elsewhere. it's kinda like once we take care of the bork-ffery scum i can focus and resort elsewhere but rn most of my energy is on this
