I felt it was a strong case, and SS's rage kinda felt like scum caught for the wrong reason.
DEO's reason was that SS's reason was a PL. It was not. It was clarified as a joke, interpreted as a joke by multiple people; the self-meta was questioned -- and still DEO carried on for over 20 pages.
A TvT situation would have been like:
"PL lynch Titus! She's always scum!"
"Are you seriously suggesting that?"
"No, it was a joke!"
<game continues>
Instead DEO took control of the game.
btw both point I make here are based in the same game.In post 1926, Gamma Emerald wrote:http://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=68707
Infinity is my reference for tells like the one Titus used, he said 40% of the time scum would vote GL based on his username

Like, Gamma didn't seem to be saying that he somehow didn't care about meta in general, rather it seemed like he was explicitly rejecting shadow's meta defense, with stated reasoning of there being evidence of interactions that seemed damning (though why he picked shadow over vedith if it was "one of you two is scum" is possibly an interesting question I might want to dig into).
So other than it being vaguely bad-looking to reject a type of reasoning in one case and accept it in a different case, why does it actually suggest he's being strategic or materially hypocritical?
OK nvm, fair point. I am just trying to make sense of the Gamma-DEO connection. Maybe I am just imagining it but I feel like there's something off.In post 1985, Gamma Emerald wrote: I don't listen to my scumreads is why.
I will have to get back to you on this. It was mostly about your reads at the time -- probably outdated conversation now that you are reevaluating.In post 1973, JaeReed wrote:If I abandoned it then it means one of the following:In post 1968, ɀefiend wrote:I'm also wondering why JaeReed abandoned our dialogue. What happened to all the wallpost?
I forgot (please quote it if you want more discussion since I'm too lazy to go back right now)
I was done talking (not sure if that's the case since I don't even remember having a discussion with you)
I've been preoccupied trying to reread and look at vote counts and struggling to figure out where I went wrong with my reads since Lycan should not have been the nightkill, which indicates something about my thoughts on the gamestate isn't adding up...which means my reads are horribly wrong, most likely.
I think Kuroi is town now, too.
Can you avoid asking dishonest questions? I was voting RM when I felt she was the optimal lynch.In post 1992, The DEO wrote:Zefiend, why did you avoid voting RachMarie?
Math's scumread was moonlogic, not bullshit. Nice deflection.In post 1994, ɀefiend wrote:Can you avoid asking dishonest questions? I was voting RM when I felt she was the optimal lynch.In post 1992, The DEO wrote:Zefiend, why did you avoid voting RachMarie?
I did not vote boring because I felt lycanfire was a better choice. The defense against Math, the claim, the reads -- nothing compelled me to move my vote. I should have known better since apparently Math's case was bullshit. But that is a whole other topic I still need to reevaluate in my scumread on your slot.
Then it's likely not a Town bloc.In post 1990, The DEO wrote:Oh I have a townblock. You are not in it Grandma.In post 1988, Klingoncelt wrote:Meta thing, when Titus is in a hydra she's more confident. When she's in a neighborhood she's more confident. She's willing to do a bit of gambiting.

You were voting RachMarie when no one would lynch her but when the wagon took off, you did not. Suggests distancing.
Your OMGUS and hypersensitivity to being FoSed also suggest scum.
What alignment do you think RachMarie was? Who do you think was scum on her wagon?

In regards to Titus, we will have have to agree to disagree about the whole meta thing. Just a final word, though -- can't scum appear sincere as well?

If I were scum trying to figure out what happened I wouldn't be doing this in the main thread you potato Think about how I responded to Dunnstral being roleblocked in trials. I can't quite remember what my response was to the lack of nightkill but I remember feeling really awkward about it and not knowing the proper townie response to seeing that so I wanted to ignore it.In post 1987, drealmerz7 wrote:like "were we redirected or was it a vig. shot and we were blocked wtf happened?!?!?!"
