No i'm p sure she means me lol
I know there's a false positive rate to it but I'd be pretty ok killing someone for posting this
more specifically i can just
visualize scumskitter posting it and townskitter not
it's like
text indicating suspicion on her just has higher priority for interpretation than other content, causing the egregious error (she's clearly not kidding? both in structure and it's not remotely skitter's brand of humor, she's not really a court jester)
I don't think Aris posted suspicion about skit at any point
I know i'm gonna get mudslapped for level -1 gawtcha reads

but i know swift
actually i don't know swift i can't just be quiet and vig on the opinion that's how that metaphor would work

i know rest

howzabout that
"Let us say that you are right and there are two worlds. How much, then, is this 'other world' worth to you? What do you have there that you do not have here? Money? Power? Something worth causing the prince so much pain for?'"
"Well, I..."

In post 158, GuiltyLion wrote:similar vein as what I just posted - why do you think scum!Isis would be so over the top you could catch her off of it just 4-5 pages into the game? doesn't that seem unlikely?
to be clear, you think this post is shutting down discussion?

how does it shut down discussion to say I don't think Isis is an easy obvscum

if he disagrees he's welcome to explain why

this isn't even a gotcha? like what
Okay yeah gotcha wasn’t the right term.

To me, the reason it felt like shutting down discussion is that I think your post implied the concept of scumreading Isis this early is somehow impossible or unreasonable to do.
You weren’t questioning the reasoning behind the read, you weren’t taking a stance regarding that read.
It was just “hey, do you reaaaaally think you can catch Isis that early? Is that reaaaally reasonable?”
and I don’t think that’s a question a townie asks to make the game progress; so I don’t think it was asked in good faith.
I think your reasoning makes sense in a vacuum but last time I played with GL I played pretty well [green, but still], if I'm recalling games in order, so with that tint of glasses on I'm not concerned.
Like if he sees me as a strong player then an overconfident solve based on a small amount of content might seem like antitown spotlight control for the game.

independent of that i like the thesis that shutting down threads of entropy in low information phase is ++apparent content and +0 town and kind of scummy

Also did you have a problem with my vote on her?
In post 207, GuiltyLion wrote:Isis, meh 144 felt like it was just giving a random read rather than meant to push the game any sort of which way from it so I care less about it.
I mean i had voted her prior to this and she didnt react to that at all and instead just threw a vague townread on me which is ? to me
you've aggroed me so many times that my emotional reaction was lol

but like if some things youve put together get me to e2 or whatever i will look at the core of your beliefs and try to defuse

you had lots of independent content for me to form a gut take on that i ddidn't to resort to interpret based on your read of me which I trust less to do in an unbiased way

I was simply pre-emptively sheeping the Greatness known as Marci.

I have not even voted for GLion because I am waiting for Marci to vote him first so I can properly sheep her.

I think Cakez pushing me is pink or red in a vacuum but i have enough of an antitown vibed baseline for him that I don't really want to join GL's wagon and throw ninja stars

ok so this might be stupid and I will look bad for thinking this if skitter is actually mafia

but I think scum!her is more careful about posting things like this whereas town!her is more off the cuff and jokey.

when you deliver a joke you do not laugh at your own joke

it's a core rule of humor

Jimmy Fallon does so and it is remarked upon as the exception that proves the rule
