so in this scenario.

I'm scum

Flea is town.

We're tied in votes.

and my scum buddies have decided to try to drive a new counter wagon to save me

instead of just pushing the person I'm tied in votes with.

because?

I think cabd should defintely talk about this, i got a flashback from one of my own games here.
And now that im back current, I'm a little sad this wasn't touched upon.

In one lf my "We The Purple" games Cabd had proposed a vote on the mod and somehow managed to get it through. It ended up as a no elimination and this has similar vibes.

I'm also not at all happy with FBs campaign against the Fae and I dont get it given faer is playing the exact same way here compared to DBZ and Town!FB didnt even bat an eye towards faer
How is a vote on a slot I'd forgot existed the same as a no lim? it's a no-content slot. This weirds me out a bit, ngl...

Like I feel 1753 is a lot to infer from "half the players not voting are scum, Discuss.".
Your other main point being sigmund's attitude/approach; I don't get what type of player would play like this as town but then wouldn't also as scum? And that is necessary to call the overall approach >randtown.
This is still scum.

In post 2781, Flea The Magician wrote:Eugh I'm going to need to ISO read guill.. progression is weird as fuck.
@Flea Yesterday you townread me pre-TMI accusation and town leaned post-TMI accusation, refer to my “dumb tells” as NAI and now you say that my progression is weird as fuck, how come you didnt think it was weird as fuck yesterday?

@everyone I can compromise with a vote in my scumreads. I'd rather they were Flea, but i'd vote Sigmund too. The fact that he called me wolfboy when i was pushing him for TMI and then he is using my TMI accusation on Flea to defend himself, instead of explaining himself why he scumreads Flea and is voting for Flea plus his entire irritation and fluff play during this game keeps bothering.

I individually scumread both Sigmund and Flea, im just having a hard time putting them together as a possible team now, unless that moment right there was not an instigation but rather Flea distancing from Sigmund and a pocket attempt on me.
You're doing the thing where you're like a 1 person tornado and it's a town tell for you - yes even meta aware wildcards have decently reliable tells. Mine is I deep wolf or open wolf, and I can't shift that one easily, annoyingly. So TR.

Honestly, I'm unsure if town you would make such a shitty ass push based on that level BS, and it made us question. We're sure you've said before that we're a good consistent D1 mislim. Context and tone from you with Sigmund suggested a connection as the conviction you had in your sigmund deal had completly vanished to be replaced with comradery.

We weren't looking backwards through 40 odd pages yesterday to see the longer term progression which is the bit we found weird and why it wasn't mentioned yesterday. Your progression sucks throughout the course of the game we're reading through currently.

Honestly I try and pocket you in every damn game because it's fun and you react differently every time.

You're not weird enough to try a dumbtell approach to get town points, and honestly. you strike me as someone who'd rather work for the read than pull stuff like that. A win is a win, but its better when you earn it kinda deal.

With this post, your progression comes back out of WTF range and makes a little more sense. The Guill we know guns at Sigmund for opportunisms here and honestly we're thinking potential connections with the sudden friendliness because we know you're as savage a scummer as we are. So there's another chunk of doubt in there.
Flea, be civil. It's not a shitty ass push. Ive literally caught scum for those kind of “perspective” slips as people here have called them and that is because i look at them from a psychological standpoint, people like us, who strive to be better and somewhat accepted by a society that expects us to act like normal people when we are not, have to be involved in some way in psychology, or at least i do.

When i play mafia, i play under these three principles:

1) The only difference between town and scum is TMI.

2) If scum can do it, so can town, except TMI.

3) The best way to tell the truth in a game of lies is by lying and the best way to lie in a games of lies is by telling the truth.

What Bingle is not getting is that you didnt just simply repeat back what Sigmund says. You acknowledged and confirmed it because you came with the intention to pocket me (and you have never attempted to pocket me when you were town, totally the opposite, you ate paranoid of me), you shouldnt try to pocket a wild card who does not think like normal people do.

Of course the decision is not up to me and you can't the only scum in the game, if someone else from my scum pile gets a bigger wagon, i will vote there.

We always try and pocket you to some extent, you're fun to interact with.
We've looked back over it briefly in that last post, and we don't see it at all. We see what's perfectly normal figure of speech and you seem to be cherry picking the bits which suit your case here, disregarding what doesn't suit.

And trust me, that's pretty civil for me. -M.

Oh, I'm not saying you can't. But if you then lurk, it's not because you were scum, it's because you were in the hospital.

Not saying that RL stuff prevents someone from being scum; it only prevents them from being scummy for the particular behavior that's explained by it.

I feel like we agree here and are just arguing about semantics. (Then again, semantic arguments are important because understanding people correctly is critical.)

Why does LLD-scum start an eleventh hour wagon against you instead of pushing through an existing one?
if she guns for one of sigmund or ircher bc the other is her friend it'll look a lot worse for her and directly link her with that person

but if she instead creates a wagon on another player out of nowhere it doesn't look like that and even if people suspect it it's 1 of the two and not just the living one
