I'm really curious about this thought. You are Mastina's biggest ally and pocketed if she's scum. Why would you be paranoid of a nightkill from her?
I mean, I
would
!

Yume is universally townread, she is persistent, she is incredibly active and aggressive, and her reads are a wildcard. She literally can have someone as conftown one second and confscum the next.

I might be one of the only players onsite to respect Yume's towngame as a threat when I am scum--but I do in fact respect it.

So Yume's not wrong; I would nightkill her here if I were scum. Maybe not
immediately
, but well before any lylo.

Especially since I just beat Yume when I was effectively scum. (Technically, I was a mason, but with a nightkill, being an informed minority, with Yume as the informed majority. I was playing like scum, she was playing like town, because we both were effectively that at that time.)

I would be quite aware Yume would have it out for me after that game; it was that game which made Yume want to play this game solo, as to get another chance. (This time we're both town tho.)

Look at her posts outside of that and tell me if that looks like someone who is trying to get a read on others
Oh please do, that'd show this statement to be a lie!

I feel the need to reiterate that unwnd is saying things in the hopes nobody fact-checks them.

I have engaged T-Bone, Scarfmanship, talked to furtive, talked to Toogeloo, and I was reaching out to MMR before they said they weren't joking in their claim.

And that's just on D2!

My D1 posts will show quite handsomely that I have engaged with quite a number more players than PPF/MathBlade/Yume/Dingle Dangle Scarecrow.

But as for reads--you're acting like this is early in D1 with a statement like that.

I already got reads. We had all of D1 for me to get reads.

Do I magically need to get brand new ones on D2?

That ain't how it works.

When I have damn good reads.
All of my reasons for those reads build up.

The fact that you were a lurksack all of D1 when it was convenient still applies to you.
That I have strong townreads that I have good reason to locktown still applies because of D1.

And the things going on right now?

The only thing they are doing is making the existing reads stronger.

I have said from D1:

You may note that even that, which was my last readslist on D1, is not identical to my readslist now, because I kicked Bunnyonce out of the town section after reading the reasons for doubting Bunnyonce as town.

And now?
In post 3071, mastina wrote:Where would the locktown pool be wrong? It's not. So where are the scum?
In the remainder.

The remainder being {Scarfmanship, MMR, furtiveglance, Maid Cafe(Toogeloo), Frozen Angel(Firebringer), unwnd, Radical Rat}.
That remainder still has seven names in it--meaning one name in there is town at minimum.

I don't particularly care which name in the pool we eliminate. I'll vote any of them. If someone else wants to campaign for a particular name in the pool, I'll follow their push.

But like--we should
never
be eliminating outside that PoE, because that PoE is not wrong.
Now?

We have seven names for six scum.

In that list, Scarfmanship continues to be ambivalent but overall leans scum.
furtive is genuinely frustrated and I don't think most of the reasons for him to be scum apply, but he tipped his hand by his reversal of stance on me and him simply not seeming town.
Frozen Angel was always lockscum here--I'm not gonna claim I can read Firebringer but can say everything he is doing is pro-scum, yet because he was FA I CAN say Frozen Angel was scum so Firebringer is, no need to go through the grief of Firebringer.
unwnd is scum for ten different reasons.
MMR is scum for the claim.

Radical Rat's reasons for being scum yesterday didn't magically vanish today. Their posting still fits as scum. They're being helpful to the town, but still are scum.

Some of those I could be wrong about--Scarfmanship, furtive, heck
maybe
even Radical Rat or MMR (tho I doubt it).

But at least five of them must be scum because scum are in the PoE.
(For the record, with seven names in the PoE, I believe Toogeloo to be the towniest of them and the most likely to be town. Does that guarantee that Toog is town? No, if I'm wrong on one of the six being scum, Toog would be scum by default. But I lean town there.)

I mean--explicitly so, yes! I've been QUITE clear about my stance on this:

If you can't tell that I am town from what I have posted so far in the game, you don't deserve to. Ever. (Hope that wording's okay.) If you think you have any form of tell on me that comes to the conclusion I am scum--I know I'm town so no fucking duh, I am gonna be smug when you see the townflip.

I've gone through enough shit in one week that I, well and truly, don't give a damn.

There are things that I am obligated to do--share my thoughts on who I think is scum, share my thoughts on who I think is town.
Some stronger than others.

But putting any work into saving myself? Not among the things I'm obligated to do.

Every single vote on me has bullshit reasoning. Literally every single one of them. There are NO valid reasons to vote me, here. Even the "just end the day" logic, even the "this will continue tomorrow if not resolved today" logic, even the posts about it being content revolving around me making a toxic mindset?

Bullshit logic.


But while the reasoning used to vote me is absolute shit--literally none of it is worth responding to.
If I have other reasons to engage with a post with bullshit reasoning, I will still engage with the post.

But by default, just not worth the effort. You can't see I'm town, you don't deserve to. You claim you read me as scum, you have no fucking clue what you were talking about. I don't really care to prove it, because the flip does that for me. So, yes. Not bothering to try. And yes, out of spite.

My spite won't stop me from sharing reads.
But I've no interest in defending myself, not in of itself at least.
Your logic is exactly the highlighted logic and it is bullshit.

The town is fully capable of changing the gamestate on their own. Fights with me be damned. I'm a facilitator for activity, sure, and have caused some bitter fights this game, yes. Those are not the death-spirals those who want to push mastina votes are pretending they are. Those are not things that kill the gamestate and even if they did--the conclusion from them is not to remove me. That is all lazy reasoning and explicitly, a breeding room for scum to hide because "voting mastina for the health of the game thread" is not stating an alignment read on me. It is not trying to resolve me. It is not trying to sort me.

It is lazy and it is either bullshit (from the town who should fucking know better) or scum (from those who see the convenience in the narrative).

The actual fact of the matter is that with the extra time granted by the frozen deadline and the benefit of said time and distance, there was a
surge
of productivity in the game.

professotic went from not wagoned, to top wagoned, to not wagoned again, in that time, from people not having them on their radar, putting them on the radar, and then later concluding (mostly at my behest) that they are not actually scum.

And there is a fairly young Radical Rat wagon there, less than 48 hours old, that has had a chance to form/develop--which these voices going back to the "mastina and the toxic gamestate" viewpoint are
actively shutting down
.

That's lazy from town and scum-motivated from scum.

Yes, there was fatigue.
Yes, there was a time where people ran out of time/energy.

But then, we took the time to step back and distance ourselves--and there was a surge of reinvigorated energy.

The narrative of mastina-is-hurting-the-town was, probably (if I am being at my most self-critical), true--
at a time
.
There WAS a time during this day phase where it was true.

It's not anymore, and pretending it is is, explicitly: not updating arguments to reflect the new gamestate.

That's not inherently scum, because lazy town be lazy.
But it is something that scum do because it's convenient and easy to hide behind.

That's a MAXIMUM of three scum,

you believe that all three are scum.

For every name you see as town in those three, the number of possible scum on the wagon falls.

Suffice to say: no, not scumdriven. It's at least 5/8 town.

unwnd's replace-in radiates scum.

Are all four scum?

Not unless I'm a god gamer scumhunter. (I am not a god gamer scumhunter.)

But are all four town?

Fuck no! There's guaranteed scum in there.

I would say 2-3 of RR's scumteam on mastina wagon (actually this is mandatory--even if FA is a scumbuddy, then unless MMR is the third or RR had a bussing scumbuddy, there is a minimum of two RR-scumteam on the wagon);
~0-2 of opposite scumteam on the RR wagon.

(FA scum off the wagon so I don't think it's all scum on both.)

If I had to guess,
{Radical Rat, unwnd} as one scumteam;
{Frozen Angel, Scarfmanship} as the other.

It's not anymore, and pretending it is is, explicitly: not updating arguments to reflect the new gamestate.
These parts bear particular reiterating.

The gamestate did NOT stall.
The conclusions did NOT become inevitable.
The game did NOT circle back into the same.
The situation HAS changed, and evolved.

The narrative that the game is still the same as it was a week or two ago is, explicitly, not reflective of reality.
And the reason why is so scum is specifically BECAUSE of how lazy it is. It is an "easy" stance to take, that has zero consequences to it.

Tell me: what consequences are there to saying "eliminating mastina moves the gamestate forward"?
What is the downside of someone saying that?

It is something they can defend as "objectively true", as a genuine belief. It is something that many players have stated. It is something that has been repeated multiple times by multiple people.

So WHAT, I may ask, makes that a stance that is anything other than pure laziness?

It's lazy, in a scum-indicative way, specifically because unwnd is not a lazy town player. To say that my death helps the gamestate without an attempt to sort my alignment in good faith (engaging with RR who scumread me is not engaging in good faith btw), is in no way shape or form something that carries any negative repercussions.

There's no need to backtrack after my elimination. There's no need to take a stance that needs defending. There's no need to take a stance controversial. It is something that allows for a vote that anyone can cast. It is not, innately, inherently, a scum perspective, but regardless of alignment it is a
lazy
take. I'll reiterate this as well:

You do not have a reason for scumreading me, unwnd. You have a reason for

Yume is showing it with her posting. That's self-evident.
T-Bone is showing it with his posting. That's self-evident.
Past Present Future have shown it with their posting. Nancy has made it self-evident.
MathBlade has shown it with his posting. That's self-evident.
For the
most
part I've shown it with mine (I'm currently holding out on a mechanical reason for MMR being scum and a play-based one, but otherwise am fully open). (I personally believe that to be self-evident too.)

Dingle Dangle Scarecrow I will argue has, too.

Heck, while I don't think he's town, even furtiveglance has been transparent. (Not every slot being transparent guarantees them being town, and not every slot lacking transparency is going to be in the PoE pool.)

So like.

That's at least seven slots of 15, literally half the game, which is transparent.
Six of which are guaranteed to be town.

Saying there hasn't been transparency is an outright lie.

I have repeatedly stated that the Bunnyonce wagon was a compromise wagon.

You have repeatedly ignored me saying that because you don't want to acknowledge it for being what it is.

If you're gonna pretend that a compromise wagon that literally everyone on the wagon has admitted was exactly that,
Was something other than exactly that.

Then you're being disingenuous as fuck.

The actual town have out-towned the scum!

MathBlade Past Present Future, Yume, T-Bone, Dingle Dangle Scarecrow, etc., have all shown themselves to be town in ways that leave the scum with no wiggle room. They are boxed in to a very narrow PoE.

Funny story, that.

My play this game is pretty damn close to my play that game--I've been pushed harder than I was pushed in that game, but aside from the emotional breakdown/meltdown that there are tangible rl reasons for, my play in that game was almost identical to my play in this game.

I wonder why?

And you know what else?

You're not playing anything like that game. Here you seem to be doing a lot and a lot and a lot of complaining over and over and over and over again.

Instead of actively trying to fix the issue,
Instead of trying to find a different solution,
Instead of trying to engage with the players that you would need to engage with on the stances you would need to,

You complain.
And complain.
And keep complaining.

I know what alignment I'd attribute that to!

This game has been literally the furthest I could ever POSSIBLY get from hollow.

I literally have gone across the entire spectrum of emotions and styles and perspectives and viewpoints and approaches and what I think and where I am focusing and so on and so forth, this game.

Like--I literally have a two-page iso.

Find the last scumgame where I had a fucking two-page iso. It's a long way's back! (My scumgames this year have been ~80-100 posts. The longest was ~150, for a game that literally had 7 days and was really damn long.)
Wanna know how far back the last scumastina 2-page iso game was?
October 2017.
Five years ago
was the last time a scumastina had a two-page iso.

Because scumastina, who actually IS hollow, doesn't post worth shit. Even the games I "broke" this were in the 150s--not the nearly 300 and counting.

That ain't hollow--and claiming it is is an outright lie.

Yeah this is scum.

This betrays a scum mindset. "just for yourself" would, explicitly, be town.
"wear everyone down" would be nai.
The only of these which would be scum is "mislead everyone", but I am gradually proving that to not be true by following through on it, so like: the proof it's not is right there.

So admitting that it comes from a spot of town and trying to shift the blame on it to me when there's no reason to rush, is scum.

Obviously, that list is too large considering the number of scum in the game.
But that list should contain
all
the scum in the game. Imo, not most; ALL. (I understand if you think it's only most, tho, but you should agree that it's most.)

And from that list of nine, you need only get the three towniest players to have a list of scum form. It's my belief that the towniest of the lazy players are MMR/furvie/Enchant. Which by default, leaves the scum as Maid Cafe, Scarfmanship, Bunnyonce, unwnd, Radical Rat, and Frozen Angel.

It's almost like you're the one inventing a narrative because there was no contradiction to be had!

I did vote Bunnyonce for lack of better ideas. I literally said my vote on Bunnyonce was mostly a Scarfmanship unvote. I was scumreading Bunnyonce for most of the game, Bunnyonce was in the PoE, I didn't want to wagon Scarfmanship, I knew other people were scumreading Bunnyonce, so I didn't have any better ideas for a compromise/deadline wagon that would go through.

It was a wagon with decent chances of going through on scum, but Bunnyonce was never my strongest scumread.

My strongest scumread has mostly been your slot, as it turns out!

And if not for the MMR claim on PPF I would be voting you!

All people who think mastina is mafia should instead vote PPF, because mafia mastina will have to give a check tomorrow which would be informative whether or not mastina is scum, whereas PPF who is guiltied will not provide information. Consider this point very well.

For the record I AM having a bit of a hard time pinning down the exact teams here.

I lean {unwnd, Radical Rat}, but the third could be any of Firebringer/MMR/Scarfmanship, even furtive.

Finding which team MMR is on will help a lot because with MMR pinned team-wise, the others fall into place fairly easily as well.

Ultimately tho it's not too important yet, eliminating scum is eliminating scum.

I have explained my Yume read repeatedly. She is town by play and by her role and how she handled it.
I have explained my MathBlade read repeatedly. He is town by claim and by play, with his conviction, activity, and how he has shown actual progression in thought.

I have explained my T-Bone read: the nuance behind his thoughts and why I think that's town, along with his end-of-D1 posting hard-townslipping him.

Enchant has the same end-of-D1 posting, although I admit the trust in this being his townplay is largely reliant on others who said so, but I
think
they're right anyway.

StD/Ydrasse I've explained before about both being in town meta but I admittedly haven't elaborated on that.

Past Present Future I've explained extensively.

Dingle Dangle Scarecrow is half-conftown and they are both insanely town by play; people who know Bella says this is her as town (admittedly I need to take their word for that), and Klick is town for his posting through and through.

None of my townreads are wrong.

And that leaves seven names for six scum, a solid PoE.

In of itself, that would be enough to condemn the names within.

You know why?

Let me quote why!
In post 3288, unwnd wrote:It's not some secret ingredient that makes town better

the last multiball I played in we clean sweeped the scum

We sweeped them because scum had very little wriggle room and they simply got out-towned. Not in a spam post way more like a town had a clear directive and motivation. Things lined up in a way that was organic.
unwnd himself admitted that in a prior multiball game, a deadly townbloc was the key to making scum be locked out of the game.


Guess what we've got this game!
A deadly townbloc. Which with scum locked out of, means scum are going to get clean sweeped--the scum have little wriggle room.

Both the push on me, and the result on Past Present Future, are attempts to create wriggle room where there would otherwise be none, because they know they're getting out-towned otherwise.

Which is why unwnd is resorting to the very spam he derided.

I mean--I did case MMR.

I haven't shared
all
my reasons--there's mechanical reasons and play-based reasons I haven't shared.

But I HAVE cased MMR, repeatedly.

MMR's role does not match the setup as being a town role.
MMR's role has contradictions in it which made it unlikely to be a real role.
MMR's claim has fundamental mechanical flaws to it.

MMR's play has not fit as holding that role.
MMR's target selection is beyond-suboptimal and is borderline gamethrowing as town.
MMR's claimed target makes sense as scum but not as town.

Scum may have incentive to kill PPF.
Scum are boxed in by the PoE and doing something to get out of it is needed.

MMR's claim is not a hard-guilty, giving them an out.
MMR's way of having played the claimed role/result does not fit a town perspective.

MMR is within the PoE, and the PoE is guaranteed to have all 6 scum, so MMR has a 6/7 chance of being scum.

Past Present Future is always town here so if there is a 1v1 between PPF and any other player (in this case, MMR), PPF wins and thus MMR is scum.

This is the reasons for MMR being scum--I haven't shared them all explaining them all but I've shared a fair amount of them and shown enough of them that if you're reading my posts in spite of unwnd's attempt to drown them out, you should know that I have DAMN good reason to think MMR is scum.

I'd only need one of these to have good reason to suspect MMR; I have ALL of them.

So with MMR claiming a soft guilty on PPF, I always vote MMR in the two.

But I have more reasons for voting MMR beyond that.

MMR was in the PoE.

I have mechanical reasons to doubt MMR's claim.
MMR's usage of the role does not match the three heads' worldview as town.

And I explained some of this in 3191 back here.
Not all, admittedly!

But I have explained at least some.
