I wasn't opposed to the tictac wagon as a pressuring device, but it looked at that point that there were enough pressure votes there. I wasn't going to join it with that number of people on it, especially after they had been prodded when it initially looked like they were going to be active. I had other concerns at that time.

profii, I went looking for them.
AaronFF, the questions weren't serious.

Aloratom's last post is scummy because he states a hypothesis, then acknowledges evidence which disproves his hypothesis, but then makes the false conclusion that he wants anyway.
I'm not obliged to trust what others say about your meta.
Do you not trust other people's meta reads here because you think these same people could be scum or you don't trust metareads in general because they're inaccurate?

Because once a certain number of people start saying this looks like Hectic's town meta, they can't all be lying scum, right

@Hectic
I'm stupid!!
Why is it forcing Hectic to be scum over just genuinely trying to understand?

Although I'm kinda curious what made profii ask the question in tbh because there were 6 mins between posts and and anyone could've easily read through their own ISO and pick out scumhunt-y posts

The question is. Does this wagon have scum in it or have scum avoided it.

If scum have avoided it, then why. Is tic scum or does scum not want to be see to go after lurker lynch.

I certainly cant see more than one of them being scum. If tic flips town.
what are YOUR answers to these questions, bob?

This, 100%

I think that as scum Hectic is slightly less gimmicky and more likely to start playing seriously earlier in the game. There's a few elements of his play here that feel serious, but likely aren't on a second glance. Right now I'd put Hectic at > rand chance of being town.

This post reads overly cautious to me

tictac was at 3 or 4 votes, which is only about half the required amount to lynch so there's not much danger in adding more pressure there, which you should want to do if you're town. The bolded part especially screams to me "I don't want to get caught randomly hopping onto a lurker wagon"

tictac's play so far is a stark contrast to their last 3 town games, and fits more with their most recent scumgame.

One
Two
Three
Scumgame - replaced out

In the town games, they have a lot of thoughts, and are straight in there from the start with the solving. Scumgame has less reasoning provided with posts.

In this game, they didn't make any attempts to solve and have only fluff posted, which is the polar opposite of their town meta.

VOTE: Chemist1422 I don't have much time nowadays but hopefully this will flip scum and clear me!

Jeez I had no idea deadline was so close
Alo is definitely awkward but I think there's more scum equity in tictac right now especially considering hectic's post
Why vote Chemist Hectic?

I wasn't aware that that was his meta. Others were saying that. They were reaching the conclusion that he was Town based on it. I didn't like that. The padding of the ISO with fluff bothered me. But now that I know who it it, I have a better handle on it and am more inclined to agree, although I still think something I can't put a name to right now doesn't feel right about Hectic.

A lot of people are saying the same thing about Wake, that his aggressiveness is part of his Town meta. That's fine, but to me, that doesn't mean he's Town this game. He could be playing against type. I think that's even more likely with him, perhaps, since he's chimed in and agreed with at least one or two of those meta conclusions made on him.

I don't mind this post. I wasn't aware how many were on the wagon, only that the three posts immediately preceding mine had votes on them, so I figured there were quite a few.

So Bob, gotta ask -- in this game he said you were scum without any reason.
If that's what he does in scumgames, then why were you so nonchalant about it here?

This feels a little selective. I say alor in general is not acting like he was in his scum game. And you jump on the fact that he made a quick early scum read. Although he may of given a bit of a scum read at the same time he is saying things like in post . Where he says he hasnt got handle on me. Thus what ever read he has is not strong. With this same read being a page 4 read and not real much of big deal.

What level of reason wuld you expect anyoen to have so early into teh game. where if everyone posted equally no one woudl hae more than 7 posts. With me havign 3 or so mostly rvs posts. What level of reason would you realy expect any player to have at that point.

And everything else regarding me in his posts has not been to push me but just generaly commenting on early events in neutral manner.


In his scum game he as active in throwing shade around and persistently push the same reads and pushs even though he never backed them up
Did you think that RVS post where I voted you was a serious post?
Bob -- I don't know if you missed this. While all that dumb stuff between Wake and me was going on it seemed that you realized that my vote on you was RVS but your answer to Dave seems a little different. Do you really think I made a "quick early scum read" on you?
