Silent Star 4: Yin and Yang

[Chara]

the context is i wanted to elim Nakata today, and i don't feel like anyone has offered anything against my reasons for scumreading him besides wanting other players. which is fine i guess. but now i'm concerned i'm going to get heat for not preferring Infinity today if she does flip scum, when i didn't townread her in the first place and voted her earlier before Nakata caught my attention.

and i don't see how 1747 resembles an Infinity defense, it's me asking Ydrasse about her Nakata read.

[Chara]

but i'd hope you do do tomorrow's homework on me, Tanner. :>

[Flea The Magician]

I'm down for Nakata over Infy tbh.

[Chara]

it would be nice to have your vote there and not on Tanner.

[Tanner]

and i don't see how 1747 resembles an Infinity defense, it's me asking Ydrasse about her Nakata read.

in a post where she's admitted to not being sure on nakata anymore and voted infinity. super lowkey.

but as said, i'm nowhere near certain that those posts indicate anything more than me not liking your infinity vote and confbiasing myself. so y'know. won't be putting much thought into this yet.

VOTE: Rival Nakata

PEDIT: Almost like I'm a fairy godcreature.

[Chara]

y'all think i'm some kind of subtle scum mastermind, huh. it kind of makes me happy.

pedit: now i don't want to try and swing back to Nakata because if Infinity's scum i'm going to hate myself.

[Flea The Magician]

Honestly I think Nakata has more chance of scum than Infy.

[Chara]

what do you think town Infinity is thinking in this situation? also wondering what about Nakata you scumread, i don't remember a lot of your reads today.

[clidd]

It feels like Infinity is a suspect who was seen at the crime scene but instead of staying and clarifying what she was doing there, she decided to run.

[Chara]

scum infinity seems pretty possible, the plain not showing up at deadline when she's been online does feel like giving up, and that would be in line with how she's felt occasionally present and trying and at other times like she's barely treading water. i can buy that this isn't normal for a scum Infinity either, but it seems like she's been in a bit of a slump recently too. i think it was Tweetie who said that being in a slump doesn't mean a slot can't also be scum.

i just find her really null and dry. that doesn't make her a bad elimination at all, and i've certainy made the mistake of not wanting to elim players i nullread who were scum.

and it's stupid but since i'm not confident she's town i don't feel good trying to pull the elim in another direction. plus the whole freezing up and not posting is definitely a lot more of a scum behavior than a town one, in this context. still not a fan of the blanket ellitell though.

pretty much.

[Morning Tweet]

I'm pretty swayed by the idea that Infy wouldn't just leave us at the deadline as town.

[Flea The Magician]

infiniscum isn't off the table, the pushes on her feel more wrong honestly.

Nakata has been my more vocal scumread. Hes a bad habit of exaggerating things and something about his appeals seems massively off.

[clidd]

A culprit would obviously have far more motivation to run than an innocent.

[NorwegianboyEE]

Let me explain why i'm so confident Infinity is scum here.
So i've played one game with town!Infinity before and their general town playstyle struck me as VERY similar to mine, hence they were an really easy townread and we both recognized each other pretty much immediately as town. In this game she's also called me town but i think it's just been an pocketing attempt.
They have this form of obvious town playstyle where they always explain their thought process in an very clear manner and stay heavily engaged in the game, they also fight tooth and nail for their reads.
Here it's basically 2020 scum!Norwee popping it's head into Infinity's game where they try to coast but do it in an really fake and artificial manner, and when they get caught on it by someone they purport to townread they just freeze completely and ghost the thread. It's an cry for help, an cry about rolling scum. And the only cure is to eliminate them like putting down an sad puppy. Which is always an terrible thing to do, but it's got to be done.

[clidd]

Ok, fine, I changed my mind:

VOTE: Infinity 324

[NorwegianboyEE]

Keeping in mind that i would have been willing to listen to Infinity and consider they might have been town the entire time, but they instead chose to ignore the issue and escape. Which showcases an guilty mindset.

[clidd]

Yep, precisely ^

Why did you kill Infinity right after I explained how sweet and special she is?

Although many people are aware that Jackie Robinson was the first African American in the major leagues and are aware that he was a very above average player in his time, many are not aware of the manner in which he was stylistically different and influenced the game. Jackie Robinson was heavy base stealer, being top of the pack for bases stolen. This is a powerful example of how diversity is linked to development, innovation, and flourishing. Most changes to the gameplay of baseball resulting from the period were considered positive.
