He had a few posts along thosw lines, and i think its a townie read because i think scum continues to push me there, and doesnt really back off ...

Pedit i know >.>
I can't remember, did you keep calling me scum after I was the first person to back off you?
I think i did for a bit and then the scumread lessened but i dont remember rhe timeline offhand exactly

Maybe I'm just jaded because I'm in a bad mood.

I should log off.

In post 923, Aristeia wrote:Yes I know the odds of the greatest scum player to ever grace the site with her presence deciding to play passively knowing that I want to push her is incredibly low but I think this is the line she actually takes this game because she knows I would most likely town read this type of play from her and she is as frustrated as I am.

Also I would probably feel sick if I just let her get away on day one again especially if she mechanically outted herself as scum to me in the first 24 hours.
This actually made me laugh so thank you

I finally got some RESPEKT on this site even if it's partially tongue in cheek

re: Reflective stepback
This is a fair point, although an experienced scum could tell him to go for it. Also, fire reads a lot of games, so he could be trying something.

I need to see the full context but I don't think you interpreted Aristeia's comment about the reflective stepback and my response accurately; depending on how it is actually done I think it would be +town as that takes time/experience to make clean

i am p inexperienced in the forum format especially relative to people in this game, ballpark 10-20 games or so? and not many as scum. ive played a good amount of chat and live mafia tho, and i think im a lot better at that, but im learning!!

it's actually tragic because if you can't be eliminated here I'm not sure what the point of even playing anymore for you is.

It's like Al Capone put his machine gun on the table and the cops can't seem to see him.

Is it time for him to retire?

I'm honored that you still think this is my scumgame, but not so honored that I won't smile warmly with joy as you vomit into the bucket.

Don't blame you for the mech but I walked you through the wrong dayplay eval.

The read is wrong, sure, but its a townie thought process
i thought you meant the read on you was wrong here, but on reread it looks like you're saying the read on shuichi? clarify pls and if so then why

I think it's pretty normal for an uninformed scum ascetic to claim ascetic. If it's valid setup spec that Ari's role makes an ascetic claim obviously guilty, that's stupid setup design, and I want the setup to be not stupid.

Is a novice mailman really even reasonable to call a power role? And Enchant was not out when I made that post.

Good point that Enchant wasn't out, what I get for HARNESSING FORBIDDEN MODERN KNOWLEDGE

Was counting PRs as named roles, Ascetic isn't exactly a lot of power either
