this line of questioning from tetrina actually was A+ because like

and now the mind wonders
The question wasn’t “am I scum”, it was “would a Gamma/Infinity partnership make sense to you”
Which is a unique question (and probably town because of that) because asking someone to analyze a POV that generally they wouldn’t be willing to entertain seems like 90ish% of the time you won’t get an answer like I gave. I consider myself an exceptional case of a player who is self-conscious enough to genuinely be able to consider whether I’d approach things in certain ways as scum when I’m town
This kinda became a ramble because I generally don’t feel like I get much of a chance to expand on this part of my play these days
We're falling through space, you and me, clinging to the skin of this tiny little world, and if we let go...That's who I am.

the question, as it was posed to you, was:
In post 461, Tetrina wrote:Hmm okay Gamma do you think you and Infinity as 2 scums makes sense?
so to me the expected answer would be

'no i do not think we do because i am not scum regardless of infinity's alignment'

like drippinggoofball definitely knows that sort of early unexplained e-2 makes those on the wagon wary and diverts attention
You know this wagon wasn't going through on page 12. That is something I "definitely know." If your working hypothesis is that I am a cunning scum player, I just wait it out. It's a RVS lulzwagon.

Now the reactions, those are potentially interesting. It did cause players to take firmer stances.

I interpreted the question differently then, mostly because “I’m not scum” felt against the intent of the question

too hard to make sense of even with the big magnifying glass

like sure drippinggoofball + one of wheelers likely skitter partners if skitter mafia? but eh

if infinity mafia wheelers likely town

it just, like, everyone appeared from disparate places to scumread infinity at approximately the same time and other than tetrina also put effort into those scumreads and it does not feel particularly like that's just how things happen ya know
This CT comes from town more likely than not.

It's been my experience that infinity is an "easy scumread" - a weakness that scum would definitely exploit.

Infinity, have you had a disproportionate number of scum on your final wagons? Including scum that suspects you but may be voting elsewhere for cover?

White knighting is used to counterattack skitter here. Essentially the same words could be used to TR me in a different context, where I'm not being pushed by skitter, and that's the distinction. It's because it's tied into your push on skitter who was pushing me at the time. You were using a defense of me in your push on skitter, rather than just explaining a TR on me. It's the context of the words that distinguishes the wk from the tr

What is my view of you? I'm not even sure I've got a read on you yet, but I do have a view. I'll tell you about it after you tell me what you think it is.

I believe the initial communications were a distraction, yes, put there for color. Whether the subsequent ones are relevant, no idea yet.
