how about that catboi? are you townreading anyone else? let's get you a date.
I'm struggling to understand what the utility of me making further trusts would be as town?In post 597, humaneatingmonkey wrote:there's a lot of incentive for you to do this if town. and negative incentive for you to do this as scum.
I don't need to exit the game to win (and "universally scumread" is an exaggeration). I think clearing people is good but trying to bite off too much too soon would be a mistake, if I let the pressure on me lead to a hasty decision it's likely I get clapped by scum for it and then my play will have been entirely antitown.In post 601, humaneatingmonkey wrote:you're universally scumread right now. if you're town, you're actively harming our PoE because you are pegged as scum. and so if you can use being universally scumread to confirm your townreads, then it would be pro-town and awesome.
Why do you want me in particular to put a trust on you?In post 602, humaneatingmonkey wrote:it seems that you trust me so much that you're willing to allow Prism and I to be paired — how's about you trust me?
that's a question you need to answer. you're willing to pair Prism and I away. that means you trust me. why?In post 608, catboi wrote:Why do you want me in particular to put a trust on you?
it's not dumb. you just say it is. we can do to me what we did to prism. have the scummiest guy who townreads me trust me. then see what my reaction would be. Then have the other safer candidates trust me. Then see what my reaction would be.In post 606, MURDERCAT wrote:Because this game gets a lot harder once the first scum gets out and prism is effective town now
I'm not strongly confident on that read but was willing to bank on the strength of Prism's read, partly because I know Prism perceives things in games differently than I do and often sees things I do not, which makes me willing to gamble a little. Right now though, I'm trying to parse the motivations of what you're doing here.In post 609, humaneatingmonkey wrote:that's a question you need to answer. you're willing to pair Prism and I away. that means you trust me. why?In post 608, catboi wrote:Why do you want me in particular to put a trust on you?

I am explicitly scum reading you lol, it's not a slippery slopeIn post 613, humaneatingmonkey wrote:you're just trying to slippery slope fallacy now. doing it to everyone was never the point.
I'm struggling to see the importance of your insistence on this. I have no idea what you gain from this play as town. Conversely, I understand very well the benefits of trying to play off frustration and bait me into placing a trust on you if you are scum. That's inflaming my paranoia at this point in time and is why I keep questioning you, because I'm trying to understand where you're coming from.In post 615, humaneatingmonkey wrote:i thought i was getting townier and townier? never had a real read on me, did ya?In post 612, catboi wrote:I'm not strongly confident on that read but was willing to bank on the strength of Prism's read, partly because I know Prism perceives things in games differently than I do and often sees things I do not, which makes me willing to gamble a little.

doesn't matter. you still trust the read enough to let Prism pair off with me. it shouldn't be that much of a big deal for you to trust me.
What makes you have continued confidence on something_smart?In post 621, MURDERCAT wrote:S_S and prism should pair today
Why do you want it? What does me trusting you achieve?In post 622, humaneatingmonkey wrote:well what about it do you not understand
