Sounds about right. You wanna confess and have an easy fast trial, or do you like a slow, suffering death, just like how you want us to suffer?

UGHHHH

sod. sit with me my child. listen to my words:

i have a hard time taking this game seriously and derive a lot of joy from being goofy even to my own detriment readwise

and that means i will lean more and more into fakeclaiming scum if it makes me smile

but you have my word i am not a malefactor. i make no promises otherwise

I think overanalyzing it. While I wouldn't necessarily call it a direct counterwagon, it is pulling away from Catboi pressure. there's 2 votes on Catboi. This is the smallest it's been.

I think there's 100% merit in believing Tictac is a possible scum partner of Catboi, and she looks to be genuinely investigating you, and I think it's a good push on you, tbh.

I had the exact same suspicions on you earlier but less analytical.

And if you're so against Nashville here, why did you join Tictac?

I think they could easily be either, which is part of why I'm less in favor of a lurker elimination Day 1 -- there's very little to go on so it's hard to be confident in a read. However, the meta that SCP pulled up shows that this game does more closely align to their scum game than to their town game, even though there's similarities.

keeper's "meta" read on him is completely bunk and a lie because keeper can't even cite specific attributes of tictac's play to show that they are actually thinking about the meta and how it applies to tictac's alignment. fae is just trying to dismantle the wagon on tictac by any means necessary rather than address the logic.

when explained to that the reason was never the "lurking" status -> keeper immediately shut up and had nothing to provide.
Actually i can, I just can't be arsed.
Control Tac had the same one liner approach, only responded when questioned.
XIVTac I don't even remember them they were that quiet.

They don't sit and actively solve. They're a passive player, just like I'm meant to be.
oh really?
please provide examples. like i've constantly asked you to (:
Why bother? You're so blinded to whatever I post and given your record of arrogance, I don't want to bother. I can link the first 10 posts from this game, to CONTROL, to XIV, and they're same energy.
Because I'm comparing Large Theme to Large Theme.
you know, the games that have 23 players, multiple large personalities and 16 pages crop up after a nap... it changes how you play.

Basement XL you go WAY more careful because that one lil green fly can wreck your Devil Deal chances, it takes a shop and 2 secret rooms from you as well as a curse room. You play entirely differently.

You keep minimizing the case against you as just being about being a lurker. I don't think that's remotely close to the bulk of the case for most people voting.
I mean a lot of it has to do with people disliking titus posts
which i cant really do anything about b/c they werent written by me

as for people scumreading my slot -- a lot of people have mentioned it as omg "mala is lurking" "mala is disinterested = scum-mala"
You're right, it wasn't written by you.

Thing is, What Titus says contradicts you. They say that you were the one pushing this and they were following your read. I pointed this out in post .

Here it is again:

Because in Titus seems to have a townread on catboi. In is the weird switch in perspective, both posts coming from Titus.

Then in Titus passes it off as Mala being the one who scumread catboi, and pointed to "the number of counters expressed". Except that all seems to have been from Titus herself, not from Mala. I also think that this post forgets that they already did the work in

You showed up late. You need to look at that bnuuy wagon.
I will but I feel that it's another counter to catboi. That makes me think town before reading.

However, I am open to being wrong. It's also getting to the point where there are so many counters that catboi may need to be eliminated as catboi couldn't live until elo.

In post 3063, Nashville Dreams wrote:If I am active, I can and do come up with solutions regardless of alignment. I do what I can.

Ftr, Mala was in favor of catboi town. The number of counters expressed is telling. Later today, I intend to compare if it's the same players given my wagon took off after debating going with Mala's read due to game circumstances.

This is a good post! It also looks to me like Nashville Dreams weren't able to maintain internal consistency and forgot who they were supposed to be sussing by confusing Monkeyman with catboi.

I'll keep reading, but based on the most recent VC and scrolling through the last few pages, it doesn't look like the wagon on them developed much further, which is kind of odd, because I feel like this is more solid that anything else that's happened so far this game.
Also:
In post 2070, Titus wrote:Interesting how I postulate that voting Catboi might be required for the game state causes us to be a counter to catboi. This definitely means I need to reset my catboi read when I catch up.

and at best you are arguing this it is simply viable for tictac to be town.

let the pressure be there and see how he reacts and step aside in that case.

Okay, fair enough I guess, I disagree, but my interpretation may be colored by my suspicion just like how your interpretation is likely colored by your townread. And as I said earlier, the fact that Nashville wanted tictac was a major part of why I didn't want to join that wagon. SCP changed my mind to lean scum instead of lean town on tictac, though, and with you, Save the Dragons, and Ydrasse on it, all of whom I townread, I felt a bit better about it than I did originally.

and "being quiet"

like damn .... sounds like a lot of not actually disproving the actual case against tictac and trying to brute force the case being waved away ...
Then go look, like you're asking us all to.
You wanna use meta evidence, go for it.
Wanna use bad meta evidence and compare Repentance to Rebirth? Sure go for it. Jokes on you really when you find out how bad Isaacs heart and Holy Water actually is.

like yeah, i see a scum possibility, but i cant say it's that strong when I compare it up to players like Cat Scratch, Mega, Toogeloo, Ydrasse, the former 3 being almost in identical situations as tictac.

I even like Cat Scratch/Mega cases for them being scum better by going a bit deeper.

Catboi fade really just solves everything.
