Open 862: Diffusion of Power (Game Over)

[Alianna]

I want the pagetop.

[Ausuka]

Ali is there a reason you seem totally fine with BBT blatantly refusing to answer your questions and still expecting you to answer his?

[Fun Times]

Because it's unlikely i live long anyway, i hardclaim N5 Cop.

Why would you do this?

[BlueBloodedToffee]

Yeah, Ausuka wants to know why I'm scum reading her but doesn't want to ask outright for some reason!

I'm not fine with it. I'd like to see an answer.
But also, it was only one question, so this seems like you may be misconstruing the situation.

VOTE: Ausuka

lol yeah it's really important for someone to ask a question that has already been asked multiple times. I really believe this is a good faith argument.

I checked and it's true that you only asked one question; I saw another post with a question mark but that was indeed not actually a question. I don't think this substantially changes my opinion. Why do you think this is scum indicative?

[BlueBloodedToffee]

You definitely could have asked me yourself.

I guess you didn't want to come across as overly defensive though, especially in the early game given some people scum read defensiveness. Would explain the 'Oh this is exciting' post as well.

I asked you a question intended to get an understanding for your thought process. You ignored it. I don't have interest in asking any more right now because it's clear that regardless of your alignment your strategy is to either ignore all my posts or make up some nonsensical reason why they're scummy.

[BlueBloodedToffee]

What question did you ask me?

[Ausuka]

I'm town reading NM for posting words.

Which probably means he is scum.

This read confuses me as well, how is NM's approach here ever alignment indicative?

That's your second strike

VOTE: Ausuka

I don't think it's impossible for you to interpret that as a rhetorical question, although I didn't intend it to be one, but I think it seems pretty clear I wanted an explanation for your NM read because I can't understand what thought process would lead to town you believing that.

[BlueBloodedToffee]

I'm talking about after I voted you. Silly.

Remember? We were speaking about how you wanted to know why I scum read you but didn't want to ask overtly so asked through Ali instead?

You know? Showing subtle signs of being aware how you may be perceived in thread and all of that good stuff.

Noting this for later.

As I said, I thought it may be a misrepresentation what happened. You're not lockscum, just a little sus.

[froggodoggo]

Howdy howdy fellow townies!! currently catching up

I was planning to CC the jester claim.
I even wrote the post out and PMed it to myself.
And then this turned out to be the one time that he didn't claim jester.

i was planning on voting N_M before the jester claim to one up him

EBWOP: *misrepresentation of what happened

[Ausuka]

BBT voting me makes no difference to what I'm talking about. I think he knows that but is hoping that by starting a conflict early he will get automatic townreads for seeming active and engaged. I also think that's why he was posting nonsense reads like the ones on NM and Enchant.

I'd be interested to hear what other people think about him because I think I'm the only one who's really talked about him so far.

[BlueBloodedToffee]

Why would you say this?

[froggodoggo]

VOTE: Bellaphant because I'm a sheep.

this is the scummiest of the Bella votes since the additional words alongside the vote make it look like scum trying to justify their vote out of fear of being sussed, esp. considering it was the 4th one

Ok, but why is a small mistake like that which is easily verified more likely to be an intentional misrep than town? Because I don't think question being singular changes the substance of what I asked whatsoever

Although I am susp of both I think BBT and ali are unlikely to be partnered I guess

[NorwegianboyEE]

BBT seems ok.

[BlueBloodedToffee]

Ausuka, I will assume from your disengagement of our conversation that you have no response and as such concede.

Can we get some votes on Ausuka now, please?

[froggodoggo]

Hello. Please tell me why you would take that seriously and why it would have any less merit than any other RVS vote.

i like this response instead of outright answering the question. its weird and risks attracting attention from someone who just claimed "eternal game solver" so i think it more likely comes from town
