I think i was townreading skygazer before and i think that was a mistake. That's not any sort of comment on McMenno's play, just some self-reflection which should hopefully be useful to look back on.
Reading through McMenno's ISO actually strengthens my townread on bujaber. even lacking a lot of the context of this conversation it heavily reminds me of games before where i've seen bujaber go for this kind of group-based sorting and have people tear it down / question it / consider it ridiculous. i can't remember a single time it's happened where he's been scum.In post 1730, McMenno wrote:I'm just saying that saying that "this group of four probably has scum in it" is about as useful as rolling dice. you said you think toog and chara are scum. do you think cheeky and elsa are not scum?In post 1715, BuJaber wrote:Thanks for reducing all my work to a 'random group of four'.In post 1704, McMenno wrote:any random group of four is going to have scum more likely than not unless you believe there to be less than four scum so I don't think it's a very meaningful statement anyway
also, you said that "If you guys still refuse to see how RC/Chara slot is questionable at best, let's lynch Toog instead. Consider my vote on both" and then you vote chara instead. why?
Okay, I approve of your political views and . . . ?In post 1797, TPFKAP wrote:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rFpx0vxkn8sIn post 1783, Nancy Drew Shogunate wrote:In post 1766, TPFKAP wrote:SCUM SCUM SCUMIn post 1753, Elsa Jay wrote:I got distracted by PORKENS and Thor just now.

Yeah, all excellent points for BuJabers demise. I'll vote later as like the hammer or something if it gets to that. But can you get everyone to click that spoiler tag and actually read it? Convincing all these personalities to agree with each other when most of them want each other dead will be hard.WHY? WHY?

Does anyone know the name of the flavor of 'Mafia' we're dealing with?
WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY?
Except he wasn't. He was scumreading RR. Or rather, he expressed no townread or reasoning for a townread of RR prior to 605, where he has a read full of Nothing. 488 is when he expresses tacit approval of the wagon while not voting it.In post 1807, BuJaber wrote:When the RR votes were piling on I was flip flopping on RR, townreading him for reasons, scumreading him for others, trying to sort him through other ways like watching their interactions with others and engaging him myself. I was considering lynching them for the flip and to have a wagon we can lynch one of in d2 as votes piling on that quickly indicated scum on the wagon. Whether it was for bussing or to lynch a townie. But I wasn't sure if I really scumread them.
Things like whether to policy lynch or how Tora vs RC you're an asshole rabble rabble rabble. Which, again, Buj was more than happy to let continue.In post 1807, BuJaber wrote:1. Okay that point is clearer now. The difference being I was strongly suspecting the fight was TvS even before they started fighting. So the fight inflating the thread would by definition be caused by scum. Which is my original point about the inflation. Inflation doesn't happen because scum post nonsense by themselves. Inflation happens because scum continue or start converations about things that are not game-related.
It is unlikely that 4 townies read RR as scummy and backed down and then later read Flicker as scummy and then backed down. Coincidentally, Buj thought RR's behavior was scummy, but decided he was town. And also Buj thought Flicker's behavior was scummy, but decided she was town.In post 1807, BuJaber wrote:I didn't pick the names randomly.. I picked the names based on the fact that I find it extremely unlikely that 4 townies had the same read on a player being wagoned, then had the same change of heart, then had the same read on another player being wagoned, then had the same change of heart.
Nope no problems here. "Just because I match the profile of my scumpool, doesn't mean I should be in my scum pool." Is totally the issue. It's not "I match the profile of my scumpool, and thus there's something seriously wrong with my train of thought." You know, the town reaction to have to the realization that your scumpool is literally players behaving very similarly to yourself. The reaction Buj totally didn't have.In post 1807, BuJaber wrote:And I'm curious.. if I had voted both of them.. do you honestly expect me to put myself in my own scum pool?
QFT.In post 1840, Chara wrote:i'm so tired.
BuJaber keeps feeling town to me in his posts. it's his stances i haven't liked.
i might go look at that more tomorrow.
also 1830 has kind of got my attention.
what's TM? don't recognize that acronym.In post 1846, CheekyTeeky wrote:I guess you haven't seen my scumgame and you did SR me in TM when I was obv town so idk.
