I think 555 covers my progression from wanting my own elimination to turning my eye more critically towards Gamma, particularly the part about what happened when I calmed down.
Regarding your (Taly)'s push for the chair, I believe that is the motivationif you are scum, but as discussed previously you are a townlean.- Taly

I encourage you to supplement your case for this with meta and your 4 years of experience with me as a player if you believe it to be scummy.In post 574, Gamma Emerald wrote:Also, to go straight off the deep end logic-wise, your little post link paper trails reinforce the idea that you’re overly self-conscious.- Gamma Emerald

That concern feels fair but idk how to exactly rectify that rn
Part of the issue is Prism is trying to swamp me with evidence to sift through and rather than deal with a bunch of grist and shit that probably doesn’t matter I’m focusing on what I find pertinent. I had a similar reaction when ssbm_Kyouko cased me in Radio Buzz.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.

This is unrelated but I remember the only time I caughtGamma-scum with such confidence.
It wasMerchant's Daughterand he had paired with an IC.
He 180'd his townread on me the second I scumread him. Then the IC lunged and scumread me.
I eliminated them.

i think it would be fair to say i never had a ton of interest in the thread to begin with (i am quite excited about the game, but haven't found much of the thread interesting yet. i expect this will change eventually.), but it's also true that arguments with 7000 layers tend to especially bore me.In post 587, Taly wrote:

i still lean towards gamma being scum here. i think his pooky vote was nonsense, his tilting seemed a little scummy to me, i think several times he has thrown out votes in a weak attempt to distract from himself, and he's just acting strange overall, which makes him a good place for my vote right now as I have 0 other suspects. the fact that he's obviously losing the argument i don't care so much about -- i know that some players are just not as good at 1v1s and being one of those myself i can sympathize. but, i'm not sure i see a sense that he believes in the points he's making, which i do care about."I would prefer not to." --Herman Melville,Bartleby the Scrivener- Ydrasse

It's too early in the game to be voting someone because 'I don't think any of their paid actor reads are bad and I usually do' when Gamma has other valid suspicions.In post 290, Gamma Emerald wrote:From his perspective as well as in general those 3 aren’t great so far
Peta’s kinda felt reactive
Prism’s desire to be acquitted was a little skeevy and his reaction to being sussed was to claim joke which while technically valid doesn’t negate what actual tangible game thoughts he displayed with his joke
Ydrasse trying to jump in on the pockit fun felt a little overwrought
It may just be inoptimal play over paid actor play though, since the reasons for his other suspicions are reasonable.Saber/Gammais S-S.
Gammais approaching"at threat of getting the chair"aggro and I don't think a scumbuddy willingly incriminates themselves to defend a less than optimistic cause. At least, that's my presumption of a typical player I have no experience with.
The interpretation thatGammais actually town means thatSabermight be deepwolfing. But that's too stretchy to assume at this stage, and in poor faith.
I thinkSaberweighing the possibilities behind the posts that rile people up aboutGammais in good-faith, and likeliest town.
