Well, take Gamma’s outburst at the end of d2 for example, where Gamma clearly misread Luke’s and Pooky’s trolling of Marci. Why does scum!Gamma ever flip out like that if Math flips scum? Gamma was clearly worried that they would get run up in the event of a Math townflip.

Gamma is pretty much incapable of faking that level of emotion. OtH is NEVER scum here.
Yeah and I stand by this. I still have 0 clue what you’re talking about?

I might be missing context actually, I was just going off that last line, but the part before it specifies I was worried about a Math townflip. So the argument you're making is not that I couldn't fake
emotion
, but I couldn't fake
uninformed perspective
like that.

Gamma didn’t fake anything. His anger was still genuine. Your assumption of it impossible for scum to be genuinely upset is wrong.

And Gamma was extremely clearly upset that if Math flipped town, Marci would get blamed for that.
I was trying to find the original post that started this topic off because I thought it had gone unaddressed, but since Pooky added something I'll respond to the latest part of the reply chain I found:
Both Pooky and Nancy's positions here are wack. I'm pretty sure I've iterated multiple times to them that I don't fake emotion as scum, I just angle it differently. To cite events in Slaughter Hour, I was legitimately pissed no one listened to me on Infinity, but towards the end of that event I ceded the point because I knew I could gain sway once my read was proven correct. And the reason why I said both are wack was that in the original post Nancy said my emotion here was genuine, ignoring the above point.
I do have to ask, Pooky, what emotions are you saying I faked that game? To make that accusation with no specificity runs a dangerous line, as I had emotional aftershocks from that game that have lasted until very recently.

~GE
So then I don’t get it Gamma, what is “whack” about our position?

You said "Gamma can't fake these emotions so he's town". The issue is I
rarely if ever
fake emotions as either alignment, so it's a net-zero statement to say I wouldn't fake emotions as scum. Pooky probably got close, I am just a bit triggered by him saying my emotions in Slaughter Hour were fake because as I said, that game actually shook me to my core.

~GE


Yeah, so I still don’t get why you think what I posted was “whack”? No not really because Pooky and Luke were trolling that Marci would be blamed in the event of a town!Math flip and if you and he were buddies, you would obviously already know that couldn’t possibly happen, so why would you be upset in that case?

I'm not saying your emotions in slaughter hour are faked.

I am saying you use anger/emotion to get townread when scum if you have an appropriate trigger point.

Taly was not scum. Math clearly didn’t gaf whether he voted Ceph or Taly.
what threw me off was Math's stance on Taly/Ceph reminded me of his stance on me in PYP
If that hadn't happened I probably would have agreed w marci on mathblade

like my point was that if you get angry/triggered by something - you will get emotional over it.

for example see how you reacted to Prism pushing you in Slaughter Hour.

it's not alignment indicative for you.

if you think me/lukewarm are "bullying marci", you will react extremely strongly regardless of your alignment.

We have been informed that there is a minimum of 1 vanilla townie in this set up. And they do not have an episode title in their pm.

Which is why people who have not said if they are a VT or not should probably not weigh in on this convo

I was looking through the Lost wiki at the episodes Bella mentioned... the character Juliet is indeed a doctor. So yeah... flavor matches...

I couldn't find anything specific from "the other woman" episode that points to Juliet being "macho" but maybe that's not spelled out in the wiki. Any Lost watchers wanna comment on that? Any macho-like character development from her in that episode?
