With this I'm throwing in the towel for the night.

fwiw panic room is the baseline i'm going off of
My whole interaction with bulge d2 (until I doubted myself), my interaction with iverson today feels like things I would've approached with less convinction as scum

Panic room is not a great baseline because I mostly dropped off because I felt like the game was lost, but I do sometimes tend to drop off as scum
ig i don't really see the conviction. or, more accurately, there's less conviction than i would expect to see from town-you
i was under the impression that panic room was a decent example of typical-scum-infinity, esp. given divide and conquer how u kept using that as a reference for why you *weren't* scum

now you're kinda saying that isn't a prototypical scumgame?

(Bork/notty)
(Mena/iverson)
(Vft/infinity/cakes)

I think, if scum bork and noddy have been playing an A+ town games, and i feel like Mena/ydra and Iverson.are too sloppy for associtives. To rely on hydra diss to move from NM to Bulge seems like a great way to get everyone to look at you and idk, I've liked Iverson for a large portion of the game.

Skitter and lillith though woul alao have to have been playing a great game if scum so idk

i actually like sircakez out of all of them the best: i like his entrance today, he's p persistantly pushed for nm yesterday, and he also has anti-partner associatives with l/g
i still think mom is scummy, and am just not convinced by any of the reasons presented for townreading her
and i utterly hate everything prism has done since/including the hammer
why all this qualification on cakez? why not just move him up a tier?

It's not and I don't even know what a typical scumgame of mine would be, most of my recent ones are really small. Though I think the way I played d1 in panic room is a decent representation of how I play d1s as scum

I'm not really sure how to respond to you saying it's less conviction than you'd expect me to have as scum, it felt like more conviction to me. Maybe we're defining conviction differently

idk that doesn't feel like the right place to put him
like he isn't part of the 're-evaluate townreads' tier but is like the best of the worst tier

uneasy but not SRing is such a cop-out

I just really hate the posting around NM and notsci

In post 268, SirCakez wrote:I already made my stance on N_M clear
actually I went through your ISO and couldn’t find any “clear stance” about NM whatsoever. I’m surprised you haven’t mentioned that NM is usually town when he’s being wagoned, like in panic room. That makes me think you’re trying not to lean too hard one way or the other on an NM wagon in case it does actually go through.

re: opinion on Nacho, like I said I don’t understand how someone comes to the conclusion that NM is the most valuable elim we can make D1. I don’t buy that this is a genuine town thought process from nacho. I think it’s more likely that nacho is trying to sacrifice a buddy to an elim so that he gets to direct an NK than scum!nacho trying to miselim the LHF town!NM so that he can sacrifice someone on his team who is presumably more valuable to his team than NM is to town. why ever go after such LHF like that when you have to sacrifice a partner for it? ergo, scumbuddies.

you're literally ignoring me, so you can stop pretending that you're trying to read me whatsoever. "waiting on Lilith to give town pings" okay well how exactly are you doing that if you're not even reading my posts, and in particular the parts of those posts that are addressed to you?

- lilith
I missed this post somehow, I always address things aimed at me.
The meta that I had where NM is town if he is being wagoned has been proven not true so I don't use that anymore.
In post 29, SirCakez wrote:i've fallen for the not maf policy yeet too many times
I guess this was not clear enough but I have 0 interest in elimming NM today.
Cakes NM stances D1.

Yesterday he kept saying that scum is probably bussing NM and used that as a reason to push me so i dont unerstand why hes suddenly (were only hunting on thebulger wagon

I'm mostly trying to sort skitt but it probably isn't helpful

I still feel like iverson and salsa have been towny on play, I mostly voted iverson to try to get an explanation on the hammer

Ydrasse's bulge vote looks particularly bad given both heads' insistence on a bulge vote over an NM vote earlier in the day

maybe i need to do some homework and look at another scumgame or two of urs
but like the problem i'm having is that you made a massive thing in the last game i playe diwth town-you about how different you were playing than panic room and how utterly unreasonable i was being for attempting to scumread you there because you t hought i ought to have known that how you were playing just couldn't come from scum-you

Watching as town fucks themselves over, and watching them willingly self destruct with slight budges in that direction?
