i think the reasons to push mt so far aren't great so, that's part of why i'm zero'd in on other things

She does feel a bit scummier than usual but that's always been par for the course early :(
yeah infinity does tend to get pushed early d1 but she usually shakes off what's like, her struggling to get into the game with ~gutpings and actual interaction but she's not... doing that this game. idk i'm the first to try to kill her LMAO but i also had moments in previous games where i've doubted my reasons to scumread her and so far she hasn't done anything that's especially towny

maybe i have too high expectations but also like, do something pls

Uh, no one is trying to eliminate you based on the way you're speaking...

I think it's really problematic that you think this is the reason you are being pushed.

In post 927, Satoru Nakata wrote:Nakata thinks a substantial part of why people are pushing him is how he communicates! Nakata really doesn't think he's been very scummy so Nakata is doubtful that it's all or primarily based on his play.
What you perceive is very much biased by your own knowledge. A different perception is by no means scum-indicative. It isn't even problematic; it just suggests a different viewing angle.
In post 940, Satoru Nakata wrote:Nakata knows both Morning Tweet and Ydrasse to be very good scumplayers so Nakata thinks that one or both of them might be fooling Amy Dunne.
They may, but this argument isn't really convincing. Aside from voting you (which is tainted by your own knowledge/bias), do you have a reason to suspect them? Alternatively, you can explain how their reasoning with regards to voting you is flawed, but it needs to be more than "you are an easy target" or "your posting style is easy to scum read".

Tale tells of a stone. It holds the power of eternal life, eternal health, eternal happiness, eternal wealth.

It glimmers in red. It shines in gold. It glistens in silver. It sparkles in blue. It reflects in her eyes.

Countless hopefuls have tried to capture her eyes, and hold the stone for themself. Countless have died for it. The stones finish remains unmarred by the decades of blood and despair that follow in its wake.

The thief knows the stone is hidden somewhere here. And not just the stone. Equal and opposite in every way, it's sister sleeps with it. Sleeps down deep, deep, deep, in the depths of the ocean, falling, falling, falling.

Perhaps we are in a mirror world and Yin and Yang are reflected as a warning to us.

I think we are asking the wrong questions.

We should not be asking
who
the criminals are.

Rather we should be asking
when
the criminals are.


Let me explain.


First, my story begins in the Mountains of Southern China.



Image



Hidden deep within the Forbidden Mountains is a Temple that exists outside of our perception of reality.


I made the journey there when I was very young during a past life, my recollections hide on the edges of my mind like a dream lost in a cloudy haze, much as the mists hide the Mountains.


In the Temple I met the First Scholar, he was writing the I-Ching - You know it as the Book of Changes.


I gave him a gift of rice, a bottle of wine, and jade medallion with a secret inside of it.


In thanks he allowed me to look through his work.


His calligraphy was remarkable,


Every brushstroke divine, as if guided by the Hand of the Creator himself.


I don't remember much of the work but I do distinctly remember these truths:


Yin is Darkness,

Blackness,

True North,

The Shape of Water,

Tides Upon the Shoreline,

Ice forming upon a Frozen Lake,

Older than living memory,

Yin is the Spirit that gave us life.



Yang is Light,

Brilliance that Sparkles like a Diamond in the Sun,

True South,

The fire that provides light, hope, civilization.

The warmth of the hearth, shelter, safety.

The flame that burns in our hearts,

The youth that knows no fear,

Yang is the form of our lives.



But most importantly, Yang is male and Yin is female.

Something has gone wrong in this world and they have been flipped.

We need to go back in time, someone has altered the I-Ching. We must find the First Scholar.

In post 954, Chara wrote:i do think Ircher could be scum here, and he's purposely using the angle of trying out a new playstyle/being upfront about his coasting to go ahead and coast. town Ircher has just as much incentive to scumhunt as scum Ircher does to fake scumhunt.
I’ve been thinking this.
What an great way to avoid the lim if Ircher is scum here. Just don’t respond, and MS players will get the coldsweats about wagoning you.

i okay with this. my mentality when thinking about infinity went: "oh, i remember i didn't like something she did early game", read her iso, went "oh yeah, i didn't remember this, but it's bad when i'm looking at it again." she doesn't feel like she's... herself, this is hard to describe unless you've played with her a lot. town her is more Here and in the moment, free-flowing and though she sometimes gets flak early game it usually clears up even during d1. and the fact that it isn't happening here is like. ya okay her being off wasn't just a fleeting thing.
Finally some decent support on limming scum.

In post 947, Amy Dunne wrote:Tanner, what makes you think I’m unhappy to be here? I’m really excited about this game, so I really don’t understand where you’re getting that from?
your recent posts before my felt kind of bland and boring. and felt scummy. i'm not too certain about your being scum right now though, recent posting felt better. i'll probably shelf it back to think about it later, as i doubt you're getting run up anyway.

clidd is probably town. also (now that i'm actually reading it and not sleepily skipping over it) does feel like town ydrasse. i don't think i agree with the idea that scum!infinity > scum!nakata, but i wouldn't be *terribly* surprised i was wrong there. to me it feels obvious why nakata isn't extending the same mentality from robert to infinity, and i guess i don't really find it scummy, but this is probably better left for him to answer.
