I mean, I'm pretty sure you're just scum and that again, we're the easiest push here for you so I get it in that senseIn post 3571, Infinity 324 wrote:honestly trying to find a solve without you in it would drive me insane atp.
I'm sidestepping notsci because even if notsci is scum, unless one of my other 3 TRs is scum you still have to be scum here.In post 3569, Disaster Cartel wrote:feel like ur kind of sidestepping notsci here but w/e. okay, I'll go back through your posts yesterday again on prism!slot but like... idk, I don't think salsa was towny at all, and even if u think she was I'm confused by how you think it was to such an extent that prism just gets a passIn post 3565, Infinity 324 wrote:Obviously I don't think my townreads are for flimsy reasons, yesterday I went through my reasons for TRing prism. I'm weighting my salsa read a decent amount here, which makes me more comfortable having a strong TR on a strong scum player.
Yeah I disagree from a theory perspective, people are weird and just do weird things sometimes, whereas even if scum aren't specifically trying to avoid weirdness they often will because their play is crafted. I think prism's play d3 makes some amount of sense from town who is frustrated with how the game played out, and of course that doesn't explain everything but the scum perspective seems so unlikely that it's good enough for me.In post 3570, Disaster Cartel wrote:like again to stress this, but from what I've read of prism's D3 it just doesn't make a lot of sense overall not specifically doesn't make sense from scumIn post 3551, Infinity 324 wrote:I don't think prism's day 3 play makes any sense from scum
and someone (I wanna say maybe unwnd or Shirou) made a point to me a lil while back that I've kinda taken to heart that if someone's play just makes no sense as either alignment and you really don't get it, that makes them scummier not townier
That's possible, point still stands. I at least was trying to be loud on d2 but maybe people weren't really listening to me at that point.In post 3573, Disaster Cartel wrote:I don't think you were particularly loud since like... D1? so I kinda think you're assigning yourself an outsize weighting hereIn post 3571, Infinity 324 wrote:me both being very loud and very wrong
ehh, I guess this kind of makes sense or is at least NAIIn post 3578, Infinity 324 wrote:I'm sidestepping notsci because even if notsci is scum, unless one of my other 3 TRs is scum you still have to be scum here.
I mean, I'm not saying that weird=scum that's much too simplistic. I'm saying if you really cannot fathom why someone is playing a certain way or how it benefits them as either alignment, that person ends up flipping scum more often than not. I can find examples from some of my recent games if you like, bc I've only started adhering to this position because I think it is actually significantly better than rand. if you think prism's play makes sense as frustrated town that's not what I'm talking about -- my point is that /to me/ I don't get prism's play *at all* on D3. again, this might be because he was posting stupidly wordy catchup posts that were melting my poor exhausted skull when I was trying to read them on the bus moving shit from my old flat to my new one but honestly the once through pass I've given them today hasn't helped matters a lot, and I do think that's +scum for him. but like skitter and cakez both seem to disagree, so I would like someone to talk me through what's towny about them. if you wanna talk through how they make sense as frustrated town butIn post 3578, Infinity 324 wrote:Yeah I disagree from a theory perspective, people are weird and just do weird things sometimes, whereas even if scum aren't specifically trying to avoid weirdness they often will because their play is crafted.

I am town and if this were early game I'd say that you have a pointIn post 3582, Infinity 324 wrote:If you're town mena I don't really blame you for being wrong on me here. I do sort of wish you'd take into account our previous experiences a bit more (specifically, my play tends to be a lot more all over the place as town and you often have issues with that), but /shrug
imagine being me this gameIn post 3580, Infinity 324 wrote:but maybe people weren't really listening to me at that point.
I know you hate this, but that's cause the read is PoE. I've tried specifically to avoid having to read you lol, and tried to focus on ydrasse (I think she'd be posting here as town!) Ultimately, I wish I knew which of my townreads I should be focusing on re-evaluating but on the surface given all the ways I know how to scumhunt I don't see 2 of {prism, cakez, VFT, notsci} being scum.In post 3584, Disaster Cartel wrote:I could also flip this back on you, which is that I think you've more often been wrong on me when you've thought I was scum and I've been town and I think when I've been scum against you (not sure if it was just that one game or if there are more) you've normally thought I was scum, but the fact you also don't seem to have considered that feels ehhh to me
In post 3502, Disaster Cartel wrote:can you point me at which ones specifically?
bc again, what mostly Iverson's posting made my brain feel like it was mush yesterday and when I tried going back through some of his ISO earlier today my main reaction was just "wtf" more than anything else

When you make a second vote in this day, you are prepared for it to be blitzed.

I feel like that should be obvious from my demeanor, but if I need to unvote to get you to get past that, then I am willing to. If you're town you're a huge asset to me.
I'm not as enthused about the idea of spending 40 hours on the game this week just in the hopes that you don't vote me. I'm not going to do it. You get an hour a day. I encouraged you to think of things that could plausibly get you to unvote, because again I took this as a willingness to call it rather than spinelessly begging me to burn a week of my life and emotional energy hoping that you grant mercy. I'm glad you unvoted but I wanted to be very clear about what exactly you should be expecting from me at this point in the game.
ie. If you are 90%+ sure you're going to vote me, stop wasting all of our time and do it. I can give what I owe the other players, and I can put the game down if we want, but I'm not burning myself up like a candle so you can navelgaze.
As for you and VFT, I could spend days writing about how my thinking changed between these two points in time. I've already written that the way I was playing around VFT was obviously gamelosing and I needed to change. Even disregarding those, your position is wildly different as someone who is almost certainly town to me whereas I was actively scumreading VFT at the time, although later I was hoping to cement the gladiate (before again deciding to swap playstyle)
In post 3085, Iverson wrote:On another level, I am just uncomfortable with this game in its entirety, even without the time/energy concern.
I am firm in presenting my opinions but the only things personal about yesterday were in going through the motions of social niceties to at least lose graciously.
Instead we can't even get that much, it turned into some interpersonal drama of a nonexistent attack where you somehow thought a short speech about how valuable I was and how you weren't throwing me away in the scum pile (and therefore I should try hard for your sake). The first part makes me extremely uncomfortable, I am just another player, I am tired of paying social niceties simply because the absence is read as something more vicious, and the second is a very visceral "fuck no" regardless of who the player is.
Fundamentally none of this was AI, none of this was personal, and I hate that I just spent 30 minutes disentangling it when I'd rather just leave it because it doesn't matter.
If I play onsite again it will not be under the name Prism.
this is just so ridiculous I can't even believe itIn post 3503, Infinity 324 wrote:Yes I will. If skitt votes me there is a greater chance I will survive by self voting and convincing her that I wouldn't do that as scum than otherwise.In post 3498, Disaster Cartel wrote:ur not gonna vote urself infinity so stop acting like u will

Part of why I feel like she feels so overwhelmed regardless of alignment is noones done shit to try and kill anyone but her today and yeah we just opened but all anyone’s done re me is mild sus
