What are the parallels to Xenologue from your perspective?

The fact that I feel like replacing out, but dont want to because this is an uPick.

UNVOTE:

checking sakura scum games for woe-is-me ATE

So it's not tied to parallels in terms of game events?

No, It's tied in parallels in terms of how i feel with the game.

You know like that time LLD called Blood Pact and I suddenly got Flashwagoned (and almost Hammered if Saki hadn't unvoted)

Open 510 - Lynched D2, did not do the "woe-is-me" thing, but the "you're gonna be sorry when you lynch me" thing, which is pretty distinctly different in that it's much easier to fake.
Newbie 1379 - Lynched D3, pulled a "I don't care if I'm lynched as long as you lynch X tomorrow" gambit. Way different.
Newbie 1371 - Lynched D1, and probably the most telling because of that. Is never emotionally responsive to this in the way that she's being right now, just a "you sure you guys won't stop tunneling me oh you won't guess I'll self-hammer" No threats to replace out or emotionally charged frustration.

Other scum games she was not lynched in.

This is different than any of those and more similar to that-which-must-not-be-named. I think she is town.

Scum took maximal advantage of that in the Xenologue game.

Do you see scum influence on your wagon's formation?

ns.

You kinda saw how I overreacted towards him because he KNOWs that i am changing playstyles because of reasons i'm not gonna mention, yet he decides to push that anything different from my old meta means scum me.

Well, there's sort of a quiet, sullen vibe you have going, and it does come off a little scummy because it feels like you're being reactive - not seeking interactions. You gave Cabd a townread without reaching out to him to speak of. And you gave Gaiden a scumread without much direct interaction either.

Then you just kinda shut down after 336. Maybe that's due to feeling like you're being targeted by scum, though.

I don't know if this oblique style is intentional or if it's a result of other stuff you're trying to change. But, it's probably not all that effective for scumhunting if it's overdone.

I like to occasionally go quiet and just observe for a while in games, but it has to be combined with periods of activity and questioning or it can look like active lurking.

If it's because of the time difference then:
After work I usually play videogames in my computer while every now and then checking in here to see what's been posted.
If it's of the way I posted:
I am aware that I'm playing more passive here, but the thing is that I don't feel comfortable being as active as I used to be, I just have a feeling that everytime i engage with someone I'm gonna get lynched, look at what happened in Xenologue, I engaged with LLD and got flashwagoned, and after that it left quite an impression on me, because I couldn't read anyone worth anything and I was too paranoid of everyone in that game, and look at what happened, I got lynched as Town PR despite me claiming.

Well, that was an unusual game in a lot of ways, including the insane complexity of the roles and role interactions. I felt very much out of my league playing with some of the players, including LLD.

This game doesn't have anything like the "wtf have I gotten myself into" vibe of that game.

Her ladyship was an ass postgame anyways, so I'd put you on a higher tier than her for that alone.

then fucking play the fucking game

goddamn

you haven't even addressed my case against you, for one

for two, you aren't scumhunting

Stop bitching that you're getting run up if you're not going to contribute.

Iso, meet sakura. Sakura, Iso.

UNVOTE:
VOTE: Elize Lutus
I want to know if i can do this.

I think you mean, "vote all you like, it just isn't gonna do anything"

Mmm. No, it makes sense.

Any suggestions on how we can tell the difference between your two brands of paranoia? What should we be looking for when we analyze your content?

Oh, right, gotcha. I think I'll refrain from doing anything in-character since that would make it super-obvious who I picked. >_>

Care to provide a synopsis for the benefit of those of us who have no idea what the crap you're talking about?

How does this decision about Sakura's alignment affect your opinion of Iso, if at all? Do you think his case on Sakura is coming from a good place?

Can you point to the specific posts where you felt that he said this?

Hard to say. While I am hyper paranoid, when making reads and analyzing what people are saying, I try to be as objective as possible to counteract it. I'll ponder things about how my paranoia comes across and let you know.

Sakura, Bork, myself, Syr, ffery, and nati were all present.

I'm chill. I just don't think Sakura has a right to complain about getting run up when Sakura's play is the reason Sakura is getting run up.

In post 393, Skullduggery wrote:Why?

Because his reads in 237 feel pretty shallow to me. And because he was active elsewhere on MS today but didn't come back to this game. I know he hardcore lurks sometimes as town. But that's a town behavior I think some players cultivate because it benefits their scum game. I discourage that sort of play when I can because we wind up with players at or near lylo that nobody has a decent read on.

I always yell at him for active lurking so I'm surprised he actually posted reads at this point.
