Why is he a liability? And you never said RVS votes, you just said town games. During RVS, I can't find one that I have as town.

Only as scum and third party. I'm fair to partly cloudy as Town, at best.

This is one of the stupidest tells I've heard...ever. I use ellipses all the time...they indicate a pause in thought greater than a comma but less than a full sentence break. We use ellipses in speech all the time.

Well yes your town reads suck, as evidenced by [redacted] and other games we've played together. Which is why I'm even more confident implosion is town and Furc is scum.

It's not ellipses during speech that bothers me, it's the "Interesting..." type posts that trail off in an ellipses without any conclusion.

Agreed, though I'd call that IIOA or an attempt to disingenuously look thoughtful/engaged/productive. It's the same as if they'd just said "Interesting." with a period in place of the ellipse. The ellipse itself is irrelevant except as a part of speech/writing. This conversation about ellipses as a tell is getting seriously off-topic, so let's say we table it, yes?

^This is stupid and is starting to come off as a grasping-at-straws attempt to rub mud on Furc.

SleepyKrew is obvscum with Furcolow.
Awesome.
And considering I convinced HIM how is this Reck's PL?

There is no "awaiting Furcolow."
Furcolow is to die before he reaches the thread.

Pine wrote:#3 (a traditionally-scummy spot) on an early RVS wagon, sans any reason at all. See, I used the word "pretense" because I think you might be scum. Scum wouldn't have a real reason, they'd have the pretense of a fake one.

But you voted me for having no reason, ergo i don't have a pretense of a fake reason, i just have no reason whatsoever. I guess you're trying to use the word pretense instead of the word reason to imply that I'm scummy? Clarify. Also,
#3 (a traditionally-scummy spot)
No. The moment that some random guy wrote an essay on why slots 3 and 4 on bandwagons were scummy, they became un-scummy. The sheer fact that it is recognized that scum at one point joined bandwagons often in those slots motivates scum not to. Not to say that it's a towntell; it's a nulltell. There obviously must have been a reason that it was a scumtell at some point, which probably balances out with the negative impetus of it being perceived as scummy.
Pine wrote:
Wasn't calling it a Town tell. "Heh, Force of Nature can be Town, at least for D1" means that my first impressions are slightly Townie.

What's the difference between a town tell and something that makes your impressions (slightly) townie?

Also, "moving the game out of RVS" is a concept that I used to think was important, but have come to realize is basically meaningless. However long the deadline is, losing two days of it to something very slightly less productive than normal play really isn't the end of the world.

...Seriously? I said "without" pretense. So no shit you didn't have a reason.

And the minute people started saying "some random guy wrote an essay on why slots 3 and 4 on bandwagons were scummy, they became un-scummy" scum promptly felt no need to avoid those spots on the wagon, using that exact defense when people brought it up. Also, the word "traditionally" generally implies something that is regarded as coming from the past.

Tells are strong. Impressions, especially those described as "slight," are not.

My play has diverged strongly from early similarities to Mastin :igmeou:

I'd rather be a dinosaur chicken nugget over scum/town tbqh. Those things are legit!

Anyways this is the post where I say hi and give my current thoughts.

No real thoughts as of yet. Played with Furc before he was terribad scum once, however I don't see his lynch going through because of the ellipses, but that was a little bit all, but I agree with whoever said that isn't a scum-tell if they post ellipsis' because I do the same thing whether scum or not.

Time to pressure some people. I'm like 95.7% sure I found scum on page 1. Post 1.

VOTE: Per
It's always the guy with the short username. Really it is. He has three letters in his name and he is also third on the list. Coincidence? Maybe. Scum? ABSOLUTELY.

for these reasons, I'm going to have to
FOS PINE


Per, why do you have to have such a small username?

Looks like everyone is voting Furco but whatever

UNVOTE:

Honestly I felt like that was just an RVS vote too, but turned into a wagon.

I wasn't talking about you, I was talking about grimmjow saying that he should quit if you were scum.

Yeah, the way that you emphasized your usage of the word pretense was confusing me.
