the traffic analyst claim is ... kinda weird
and so is your like overall tone

like i'm having trouble seeing why the real traffic analyst would claim that
scum would want to be on wagon to avoid being checked

and idk why a vt would be doing what you're doing

but like i can see some benefits to doing that as scum

pedit that's the flippant part

meh even though it theoretically would/could benefit scum to post those things (and to follow through on things like lolhammers), i don't really see scum like actually making these posts unless they were super like cocky in their own scumgame, if that makes sense

bold of you to assume i'm not cocky in my scumgame

i am a scum god

GuiltyLion, what's the difference between "I like his posts" and "gut early townread"? Paranoia is a word I see thrown more as the game progresses, instead of right at the start.

We have only two games where I was scum against you, no? One of them you caught me (marathon tho) and the other I recall just killing you N1 before you had a chance to.

A simple skim of a couple of Eve's previous games would probably have made things a little clearer for you.

Should I be surprised that you didn't just do that when Eve was being weirdly flippant, etc?

i'm feeling lazy; i'll take a look tom

You're kinda deflecting there, Skitter :P

You were putting in energy to try and sort/engage with Eve, when was arguably easier to just go take a five-minute look. So you're saying you could have, but you just felt lazy then also?

why does this always happen :(

you agree that the post I quoted is bad, right? and personally I wasn't impressed with the reply to me either.

ehhh you know it's not a huge difference I guess, and I wasn't saying that because I'm scared of scum!you in particular, it's more just I felt I had town!pings from those slots bc they were doing things that I didn't find natural to fake as scum, whereas with your posts I was finding myself more agreeing with them than thinking "oh yeah scum isn't likely to post this".

It's not a major thing and if you pushed me further on it I dunno if I'd be able to convincingly show exactly why the read felt different, was mostly operating off of my first gut impression reading through.

How do you like my acryon vote?

Smart - which part of it?

I didn't like the "How many games" question, felt more like a 'gotcha!' in focusing on # of games rather than a genuine avenue toward's understanding nom's POV, they felt all too eager to dismiss their as 'I'm not scum hunting yet and I'm rusty' - I think town would have been a bit more insulted or confused - and the last line is just an OMGUS-y threat. Genuinely interested to hear where you see town in that.

that seems pretty easy to write as scum IMO but I appreciate the answer

Posted: Tue Apr 21, 2020 7:12 pm

But why would you write that as scum? "Yeah, I'm not scumhunting."

Like sure you could do it but I feel like most people would feel they would just be opening themselves up to further pressure.

Yeah this is pretty much the biggest redflag imo, this is like trying to defend yourself in the worst way possible? I don't know.
Could come from town if you think about it, but it just screams "I am scared" in a way.

pedit: I think it's best for everyone to stop thinking scums are these overlogical people who have everything calculated and on lock because by experience this is not a good way to analyze interactions most of the time because scums make emotional errors most of the time, not logical ones.
