you're alright I don't take this stuff to heart because like you said it's just a game about lying but I know some people do and that's when it can get problematic.In post 4021, petapan wrote:

i disagree with this because when you were attacking me I felt very similarly. you can be ruder than necessary honestly.In post 3703, petapan wrote:the fact is this is a game where some people are as part of the game lying and trying to manipulate others
to that end i have to have hard heart and not care when someone complains about their feelings or how i'm being unfair because they've been busy irl and didn't have the time. i did not care when galron cried about it even though i was probably wrong, i do not care when it comes to you. displays of emotionality and making excuses are only going to make me think people are falling back on that as a way of appearing vulnerable to make people want to be on their side. i care for none of it
i think the way you're reacting to me here is tantamount to a scumclaim
the way i play is stuck in the past and is out of sync with current norms. i did decently playing with aggression in the past but the playstyle is clearly unsustainable (although i believe the stuff about needing to have something of a hard heart when it's possible the other person is trying to manipulate you)
if i was out of line with you earlier i apologize
and yeah when scum uses AtE against you it can induce that kind of rage. there's not really a good answer.

ok and? my suspicions have been right so far. we have to lim Peta or Infinity, that's it.

I genuinely am trying to figure out if I'm just mad beefing withYdra/Cakez'splaystyle because everybody is apt to convince me I'm wrong in suspecting either slot, but I don't think I've provided sufficient pressure or have seen an appealing reply.

I can't see scum!Peta doing the 180 he did and instead getting scum buddy Dunn killed. Doesn't make sense at all. I am fairly certain Peta could have got me in the duel and Peta also knows that because he's outfoxed me as scum before.In post 4027, Taly wrote:I genuinely am trying to figure out if I'm just mad beefing withYdra/Cakez'splaystyle because everybody is apt to convince me I'm wrong in suspecting either slot, but I don't think I've provided sufficient pressure or have seen an appealing reply.

Ydrasse I had a slight scum read on from early reading of the thread + blue PT. I don't recall any strong pushes she's made for people to die/events to happen in a certain way except for the unwnd/Ydrasse fight, which I wrote off as probably not alignment-indicative b/c some people on-site that use legitimate anger/frustration to their advantage regardless of their alignment (kuribo, LLD). It's not a super strong read and I think there's a fair chance she's town, but she'd def. be one of the people I'd read over and consider if I were handed an execution throne like the first event (though there is a fairly large gap between my more minor scum reads and skitter atm).In post 4035, Taly wrote:1)What is hard to read aboutYdrasse/Me?
2)How do you view the Pink Team dynamics?
3)Any questions you have for me?
You have posted much words that generally seem pro-town, but I think you're a good player and I haven't seen anything in particular that's been SHOCKINGLY town, just a lot of good but theoretically fakeable-by-scum posts. Also I think I mentioned this in blue PT, but it's pretty hard for me to keep track of a lot of people's suspicions this game - some of it has been 'AAH WHAT THIS THRONE DO' and other worries like that from other people, for you it's just hard to remember your thoughts on particular players when they get crowded out by your questions/prodding at people that don't have explicit mentions of what you think people's alignments are. (tbf, this is more my issue in that I should prob re-read some more of the game and your posting after this event than something you should worry about)
Pink team sounds like a clusterfuck
I've forgotten your exact reads on peta/infinity so I wouldn't mind a refresher on that. If you've already posted it then just say that and I can look it up when I'm back from a movie w/ friends which I need to run to v. soon- Taly

To be precise,Infinity/Petaare both slots I've suspected at some point in this game, but I just can't see scum playing the way either of them are at the moment.
Peta'spushing against slots that aren'tInfinity- which would largely be at his own detriment in the reality he is scum, so it's hard to brand any of his posts this event as insincere.
Infinityseems to have just resigned to a lim. There is a reality where Pink Team had more scum and so the judgment of Blue is very townsided, butInfinityis not entirely void of content. I have a hard time thinking they - as scum - would just sit and be like"yup", feels more like a defeated townie, tonally."Taly is going to be a hot mess all game and I am entertained" ~ Gammagooey

AndInfinityhas been muted this entire game. They've made many posts that don't have a set agenda, but reading them tonally does not feel reliable anymore.
If I had to choose to eliminate either slot now? I'm leaningInfinity, but that's largely because of 3 things:
1)A flip in Pink illuminates the way I see our team very thoroughly.
2)Peta'scounterargument is weaker, I buy his outrage toSkitter'sPOV on him.
3)I don't want to give scum the benefit of a tie. I don't care if that "informs town", that will always be an argument of WIFOM, which we do not need. I'd probably - and reluctantly - votePetato avoid this.
Unfortunately, none of these reasons are overtly". So the gamestate is icky and I want to leave it ASAP.Infinityis scum""Taly is going to be a hot mess all game and I am entertained" ~ Gammagooey
