I mean, the cool guy obstinacy game is fun and all, but you could just be direct and say yes or no whether you saw the speed wagon yesterday...even if you think it is Haschel's fault

I didn't and don't give a single fuck about the speed of the wagon before the hammer. Does that work for you?

That's an answer at least. Really don't get the chip on the shoulder about it

In a rare moment, I wasn't being snide! Anyways, I do realize that Haschel is responsible for the hammer, but to say that he is the sole person responsible for the speed of the yeet is simply incorrect because he was just 1 key in the cog. Also announcing hammers is dumb and doesn't do much imo. Once you vote on a wagon or a wagon passes a certain crescendo, you should be cognizant of a potential for a yeet, and thereby, if you're uncomfortable about said yeet, even if you just think it's a little too soon!, you should unvote.In post 408, Gamma Emerald wrote: I really appreciate the responses you gave me
I think you might’ve been sarcastic about the “fun exchange” but I think it was actually a good one.
Though, I do still think the thought about not expecting people to suddenly hammer applies to most if not all the people here. So trying to say “well you also have to hold the other voters responsible” isn’t really valid, as they can’t really be prepared for someone coming in like that. It’s why you announce hammer most of the time, so anyone can pull back if they feel like it. So no, I think culpability for that hammer lies solely with Haschel.

Are you intimating you think it was 2 on/1 off the chk wagon yesterday or am I misreading what you're putting down?Posted: Mon Sep 21, 2020 11:20 am
Oh fuck me and BBcode.

I honestly don't know. It seems unlikely, but maybe I'm just salty because had I checked the game at work I do think I would have unvoted at Y-1 just to slow that down a bit.In post 437, AGar wrote:Are you intimating you think it was 2 on/1 off the chk wagon yesterday or am I misreading what you're putting down?
I sort of have this working theory that scum tend to be more present and checking games more often due to the nature of risk they face, but that doesn't mean they post when they check a game (at least that is majorly how I play as scum). I wouldn't expect 2/3 of the scum to be in the lurking crowd, but now that I've said this aloud it literally meas nothing, so....
Posted: Mon Sep 21, 2020 11:37 am
I mean statistically speaking, from my perspective, we have better odds yeeting on the wagon, but that still feels like a big risk considering I just played two games as scum where the D1 wagons were almost entirely town and it caused confusion deep into the game. That's anecdotal of course, but definitely the source of my jitters.

hahaha thanks for calling me nice though
It's ok if you forget I appreciate any attempts to remember though
I would be inclined to vote Haschel but he hasn't posted for little bit and I don't want to start any wagons in his absence. I get the vibe that we're all a little more cautious after a townie elim.
Also VP not sure about the being more present thing, I reckon I'm probably equally as vocal/present when scum as when not. It would probably depend on the person whether that's true or not.

And also about the 2 scum on wagon and 1 scum off or 1 scum on and 2 scum off, I think on and off wagon doesn't really mean much tbh. Like yes obviously the scums want as many mislims as possible, but I think whether or not they r on has a lot of different factors play in so it isn't a good deciding factor. Now generally I would say it definitely has at least one scum on it but I think we should be choosing todays lim based on SRs and not let the wagon change our reads a ton.

My question is "Do you have any original thoughts about tn that aren't just repeating back the opinions I already gave?"In post 292, Ythan wrote:If you got questions you gotta ask them. I'm not answering to "more".In post 290, Haschel Cedricson wrote:Fascinating. Tell me more.In post 284, Ythan wrote:Persistently and consistently mischaracterizing yesterday imo. My answer may be colored because i just read through mostly interactions involving him before catching up to your post I responded to but I feel pretty confident about it still looking back. He isn't near a hammer is he I'm gonna park my vote there I think.
A town player could mess up trying to get reads and fail. Chkflip didn't fail, though; he specifically said he'd gotten four or five reads out of the deal and then refused to share.In post 348, brighteningskies wrote:Just looked at Haschel's ISO.. so much saying "this is bad" without actually saying why anything is bad, many questions on other people to get them to simply elaborate without actually asking real questions.
Haschel would you please elaborate on why you thought ckflip was scum?
For example: why is this not valid? Surely a town player could also mess up trying to get reads in a particular way and failing?In post 156, Haschel Cedricson wrote:Try again.
If you're gonna use "I was just trying to get reads!" as an excuse, then you better be able to prove you got some reads.
1) I'll share them once they're formed; not every road leads somewhere useful.In post 367, brighteningskies wrote:No I get you're scumhunting but it feels a bit like scumhunting in a way where nothing is shared with town. What opinions do you actually have on players because if you're getting reads from your scumhunting, you ain't sharing them yet apparently?
2) I already have shared several. But right now I townread Agar and VP Baltar, maybe UT. I scumread Ythan and tn. I'm not thrilled with you, Noraa, or Gamma. No opinions on everyone else yet.
Speaking of Gamma...
That's technically true, if only because when the only scumhunting from you that made an impression on my catch-up was your bad nightkill analysis and the hydra theory then the lack of other stuff is content in and of itself.In post 396, Gamma Emerald wrote: Just because I’m not going full Sherlock Holmes doesn’t mean I’m not contributing, and even if I wasn’t actively solving at all, just posting still counts as content.
You don't have to like my hammer but I stand by it. The only thing I regret was that he was town playing poorly and not scum.In post 415, VP Baltar wrote:I think I need to start limiting the elim pool for my own sanity here. I'm not getting super strong reads so far, and sorting newer player behavior from scuminess is not my specialty.
Feeling fairly town enough on Gamma, skies, Reck and UT that I wouldn't want to yeet them today.
It's a real toss up for me between Haschel and Ythan for who was worse on the chkflip elim. Ythan seems a little more probing today, but still pretty useless in actually pushing the game forward. Haschel has better content, but that hammer explanation was a dog turd. The problem here is a real lack of information to sort due to speed and Ythan's lack of posting. I need to double check myself here, but I believe Ythan was on site and posting on the day of the hammer...but I think when I checked this before it didn't feel very conclusive as to whether he was present enough to unvote. Haschel...I'm super mad at you if you are town.
Off wagon of Dr. P, Agar, tn, noraa is a toss up too. TN maybe feels the most town of that group? I need to do some ISOing of people in that group today and better refine my sentiments.
