Since when is that a thing Koba?

Do you not see him trying extremely hard to push attention away from Dwlee here? Like effectively he only started scumreading me on r I refused to give him what he wanted by moving my vote. Now he proclaims without any evidence that the Dwlee wagon has "fizzled"

If your issue with me is really the hood thing, I promise you I can explain that to more satisfaction later. Just won't do it unless I absolutely have to.

coming back to this again

you've accused me of both trying to pocket you and now trying not to escalate

why would scum!me even claim to scumread you and call out that your reasons for townreading me were kinda fake-sounding and bad, if these were my goals? Like, the pocket-y and de-escalating thing I could have done would have been to simply townread you and amplify your voice against my other detractors. But instead I pick a fight with one of the only people asking people to explain why they suspect me? and you think that's a
de-escalation
tactic?

just the idea that I specifically need to vote you in order to "engage you right to your face" is frankly absurd, really

I am often accused of many things, but 'pockety' and 'trying not to escalate' are pretty rare on the bingo card, so props for that

Lion's gives me negative vibes. I can't put my finger on it if it feels rather artificial or over the top. Obviously there is more history, I am just not sure what exactly else he was expecting there. Feels more like making more out of it than it actually is.

Then again I agree with him that dwlee's response wasn't great.

VOTE: dwlee99
This post also sucks. Soft push buddy but vote town is the vibe I'm getting from this.
What do you make of a POE of {Lion, Testarossa, dkoba/marci}?
That's pretty much exactly what I was thinking if I remove you which I feel good doing because I don't think you bus GL here.

nono, surely each neighbourhood having a scum is too easy? i think maybe only one neighbourhood would have a scum in it :weary:
It's probably irrelevant unless it matters for balance. If we exist in a traffic analyst or PT cop setup, there's almost definitely a scum in the neighbors to give immunity to being guiltied. If we don't then it's probably as good as random

Well hello to you too! :D

Dwlee, can you link me to any prior town games of yours where you RVS voted someone based on a past game together like this? I think this style of RVS intro vote is slightly +scum, it's an easy/convenient reason to plop down your first vote and I'm also a lil pinged that you didn't really say hi or otherwise engage me directly

ehhh actually I'm thinking about this more and I'm not sure it's an especially great point

I think the main thing I didn't like is this idea that a. because you are out with friends and therefore not frozen scum, b. we're supposed to believe that you're town

but I'm realizing in fairness if you
know
you're town, it might make sense as a response, and I might be assuming/projecting b) when you didn't mean to suggest it to that degree.

I do think you're being defensive but that might be more of a personality trait here
then his later backtrack
In post 326, GuiltyLion wrote:I got into this exact argument literally just in my last game and I was right about redtea there too, who was being read as town for being "lazy" and not solving and oops turns out the simple obvious explanation was correct and they were scum.

I think townreading Dwlee for this "image management" point is bad. If your argument is that Dwlee knows how to be townread for "image" as scum then they owe it to us to image themself equally as town so that we don't mistakenly suspect them. Being so quick to get defensive at the first sign of pressure from koba is not inherently townie. I don't even care about any of the traitor reaction test stuff cause I can't read it myself, my read is all about the tepid RVS vote and the defensive response to being called frozen.
here's me explaining it to marci

so by his own admittance, there was nothing to progress the read from... and yet it did? it progressed BACK into where it was #326 AFTER i called him out on it?

then he'll say shit like this:

which solidifies that there's no good faith in GL right now. pretty interesting how he went from convincing me not to townread Dwlee anymore to being super aggressive after i called him out again is... pretty interesting. not ai, just pretty interesting.
