In post 1094, Andante wrote:lol ok you're the 2nd one to say something, I don't see what's wrong with that statement?? When only town chose 1 (ignoring 630) there were only 2/13 games where #1 wasn't 1st draft and was still all town. Whenever scum chose #1, there was more than 1 person that chose it. 6/8 times that #1 wasn't 1st draft, it had scum. High odds to be scum! I don't understand what's wrong with this statement
It ignores the number of people who chose it. If, for example, 5 people chose 1 and one of them was scum, then there's actually better odds of hitting scum outside of the 1's than inside them.

If you add up the total number of 1's you get 6/26 are scum which is 23%, slightly higher than the baseline of 21%. So scum have a very slight inclination toward picking 1, but it's not the big effect you're making it out to be.

Even aside from that, why weren't you pushing Datisi equally?
I mean sure, if we wanted to look at total number of 1's... I was just looking at the general trend

I mean, why should I not be pushing pooky here? Datisi is alright, nothing about him is really screaming scum to me yet, Pooky has nothing game related, you're very similar to pooky, in that I think almost all of your posts have been related to this analysis stuff, I could be wrong, could be genuine posts, but it does feel like this is what the bulk of your posts have been about. oooh a pooky/Something_smart scum team though... kinda scary to think about lol

There's nothing wrong with pushing Pooky, but the number analysis isn't really damning. If it were, it would also be damning for Datisi, is my point.
Shame on a martyr claiming friends

Yeah, I'm not really going off that, was also just like "hey fun fact! this is also a thing!" like, I don't TR pooky, you're kinda making it sound like you do? what're your thoughts on Pooky?

In post 263, catboi wrote:[On IV's massclaim suggestion]

Doesn't "help" but the mindset is almost always town driven because scum are never going to be so bold as to suggest the idea if they believe it to be a pro-scum move, as doing so just draws negative attention to them and is unlikely to get cooperation. Way more likely to get floated by town who are trying to experiment - don't think I've ever seen scum propose it, actually. (day 1 mass is more viable in a cosed setup, in here it's pointless and bad)

Look at the motivations, not whether the suggestion is helpful/unhelpful
Can you weigh in more specifically on the fact that it was IV who suggested it? My impression of IV has been that he is in fact not the strongest mechanically, but he's got to at least have some positives in mind before suggesting it. I definitely think he is capable of doing "dumb" suggestions like that as scum hoping it will get townread for exactly that reason.

I mean like all of this makes sense to me, or at least I understand her

Spoiler:
In post 958, Mare wrote:Okay, my counterpoint:

I viscerally felt that SirCakez was scum from the moment he began posting in a previous game. I cop checked him N1 and he was elimmed the next day.

Why should I ignore it when I get the same exact feeling from his posts here? Should I not immediately press on something familiar when I am familiar with it as scum?
In post 960, Mare wrote:And, let me say, once more.

I really don't give a fuck if he's catching up. People do it. I dislike it. Whatever.

I dislike what he's saying.

i mean your visceral feeling is: a) not something you brought up as part of any of this earlier in this convo b) not something that i feel/vibe/have any opinion on
so it's just like ok?

and my response is basically, again, you're scumreading him for something that's nai, and i'm a little surprised that you're not seeing why i think it's nai
I don't believe the things he's saying are NAI. To say you dislike/like something, to invoke tone, means you are providing your opinions on someone. And that's AI.
In post 965, Mare wrote:To say "I dislike this, I find it weird," to place a vote because of that? How is that NAI?
In post 966, Mare wrote:Like you want to be ? but you're sitting here saying that he hasn't done anything AI which is patently false soooo.


Honestly it almost seems like a like funhouse mirror version of the conversation we were having. You're arguing that some feeling she has is nai and she's saying it isn't, sort of like what I was saying to you.

Also it's just weird to me to see you say "you're scumreading him for something nai" when she explicitly says she's talking about a feeling and not just like catching up or whatever

Tbf she was saying she's objecting to the content of the catchup before she moved to the vibe thing
