league is generally referred to as unpleasant because it's a big time sink esp if you get into it, ive played for years and, unfortunately, love it. i love the lore even though it can be really hit or miss. also the community for it sucks but, actually, it's fun. also teamfight tactics (autochess if you know it) is stupidly fun

i am town, and you should want me to be town, so both?
oh so it’s just bc it’s a time sink. eh at least it’s productive no? Like you’re learning how to actually do something. And I don’t know teamfight tactics or autochess tbh. I may have to google the lore of the character now tho, I’m genuinely curious

I want so much to believe these things are both true

lucy you're repeatedly having takes that don't make any sense to me whatsoever, similarly to fark.

fark is ignoring relevant pieces of information because they don't conform to his narrative - he can't actually find the me doing the things he's claiming i did, but he's pushing me for them anyways

learning the macro plays of league of legends is perhaps the least useful thing i could do in my life, but if anyone ever wants to know how to play support heroes in games now i have all the answers.

lux lore is not... as good as i make it out to be, in canon, but i could go on and on about the Nuances. the Taste. the way she's a silly little centrist who needs to grow up and yet i believe in her wholeheartedly and that's saying nothing about other characters she could interact with

well, i am town, so i think we have settled THIS matter. just believe me. i would not lie to you and speak of lux league of legends in the same breath

in time maybe you can scrounge something outta these past few months

that is how i feel about her, and league in general, it is awful and not the best and lacks the 500000 thoughts in my head about it but one day somehow i will go there become lead writer give the people what they want and it will be great. the best story in the world. but for now i will just make do with thinking about how i am objectively the best league fan in the world

yes i will accept this deal but it has to be mutual. if youre scum u owe me

maybe I will have a steve jobs-esque moment in 10 years when somehow my consumption of chips and excessive watching of YouTube movements will give me some penny drop moment of insight into some project I'm working on. but i doubt.

yes, yessss. do it. give the people what they want. I am glad to hear ur the best league fan in the world. what r the criteria?

okay, but then there's a real risk that I don't buy u lunch at all. what about if I buy u lunch if I'm town?

i don't doubt it, something something, if nothing else it's a useful break and you'll get your energy back and then you'll be ready to get back ont rack even more and you'll be like a chipper young animal in the spring ready to go like, feral or something, i don't know

the criteria is having at least 3 braincells and while i had to struggle and scrape, i did it. by the skin of my teeth i've overcame them all, and truly i should not be here but doing an ama on reddit for the people

okay, well, i suppose this is a twist but who am i to turn down THIS deal as well, you got it

in theory i think this actually could be AI but i don't want to think that hard about it

I can't rule out that fark has me pocketed I guess does Fark seem like the lim today?

I think Norwee, Day, Mena, and Luca, definitely not in that order, are all examples of players that are townier than Farkran.

The main reason you can read into the NK is that from our perspective it seems like Day is in the limpool and has a wifom role that we don't know if he really has it and it's a weak role that's hard to land, but from the hypothetical scumteam's PoV it's extremely likely at least one scum knows Day's main, and knows she can obvtown by eLo, and it's a role that can hard guilty and there's just nothing more horrifying than hardguilties, the odds be damned.

So there's a lot of scumteams that shoot Day over Pooky, assuming Day is town which really feels like the truth here.

And there's something to be gleaned from us not having one of those scumteams

You're the one conveniently ignoring reality though

All the things i have said are true and demonstrated by facts

All the theories you said to be "not in line with how you play" are beyond the credibility level of naive


How can you say you scumread lucy for 1800 or do not kill pooky in this context and get townread out of it is beyond me

How is this not aligned with reality ffs

it's convenient for you to say that i did, but none of those posts support that position

you're also taking a variety of posts from a longish period of time as compared to how quickly the game was moving in order to make it look like i was into more people than i actually was at eod. i'm p confident that if you did the same for most players in the game you'd find similar changing of minds.
you're calling it scummy because it's convenient, not because it actually is
Yes you did leave the door open omg, how is "he doesn't fit my town expectations" a closed door, like, what's your definition of a closed door when you yourself fought against menalque elimination so hard that you got townread out of it

And then you say you're willing to compromise on him

Please tell me

Also the first post in my blockquote is less than 24 hours earlier than the last, how is it a "longish period"

Why the fuck am i on the unreal side of things when i am quoting facts that happened?

Your reads were all over the place in a span of less than 10 pages worth of content in a game that had 170 total, within less than 24 hours real time

That's nowhere near a natural change of mind

I just won a game as scum where I brought Datisi, who was conftown, to elo because he TR me. This is an entirely different scenario, though - pr’s are scum’s biggest threat as they can mechanically fuck them and leave them with no way out. I’d 100% kill Pooky there regardless of how strong he tr’s me. The only reason I wouldn’t would be if I was worried about a protective
In post 4417, skitter30 wrote:i would always bring him to elo? he's never going to vote me this game

why would i *ever* kiill him?

i'll get to the rest momentarily
What if he had a guilty on you? Or a green light on Farkran, meaning he’d have to entirely reevaluate?

I don’t at all buy that you’d never kill him as scum as it’s pure WIFOM. Pooky surviving would have to wonder why tf he wasn’t killed, which must mean he is on the wrong track and is tr’ing scum, and therefore must reset. In the game I referenced above, Datisi nearly voted me purely because it would make sense for me to leave him alive.

You would know by killing him that you can bank that TR and use the ‘I would never kill Pooky as he TR me’ line for the rest of the game

And the fact is he claimed a pr and hinted at being a strong one. Who else would you kill in this situation?

I’m not saying you’d 100% kill him as scum, but to say you 100% wouldn’t just seems disingenuous

Fine, between now and elo something may change and i may kill him in such scenarios as you list. But i would not have killed him last night, and if his read on me stayed relatively status quo going forward, i don't see myself killing him in the near future. Better?

I probably kill you last night
