Plus is generally extremely hard to read. I have never ever not SRed him in a game before. Like thats how scummy I perceive him as and its so scummy that I can never stop myself. My conclusion is plus is scummy af. Just hope there is a vig in the game that vigs him. If there isn't, then you have to concentrate and make things right your own way :/
-nornor
anyone know what is odd about this post
Is it that calling for the death of a player regardless of alignment kind of sucks?
Is it that Noraa prolly isn't the vig because the vig usually isn't like "gosh I hope a vig kills this person if they exist"
Is it that players that don't know the setup are generally town, doubly so in a three headed hydra because people on teams usually talk setup at some point?
I dont know how to read Johnny atm. Im in the process of figuring it out.

Gamma reads different in this game than he did in our two previous games together. But also both of those games were WEIRD AS FUCK so not willing to act on that.
It's not really flipping a coin when the player does not do what he is supposed to do, play the game.
It's been three days and all he's done is color commentating the game and being terrible at it.
He could be scum for all i know waiting for the night to kill the contributing players to silence the room and have an easier game.
A challenge: find the instances of your actually following through with this particular policy elimination and tell me the ratio of town v scum on them. I know how I bet that would go.
If you pushed this further I would not be on board. Bad does not equal evil. Shit play is not a scum tell, and limming based on solely that is a coin flip with worse odds.
Disagreed. You are starting to bother me because you keep talking about flipping a coin as if my reasons are not valid to scum read him. I hosts games Johnny, I've seen several kinds of scum and chkflip flips the profile of one of those kinds!
Our chances of finding scum on Day 1 are the same regardless of the method
.
Bad does not NECESSARILY equals to evil but it can very well be, shit play does not NECESSARILY scum tell but it could, but you are missing the whole point or you are deliberately playing dumb because
lack of play is one of the most basic scum tells!!!
I'm not talking going-on-vacation or taking-care-of-the-family-first lack of play!! I'm talking about his lack of real play, he's got 13 posts and he could have made
thirteen great
posts! But he chose to post 13 shit posts and fock off.
That player is not playing the game! He is disinterestedly coasting it!! Just like an old tired scum rand with no motivation to play the game with "outsiders" (as Taylor put it) would.
It seems to me that you are willing to cut him some slack because he is a legacy player here, as in legacy players are not supposed to get yeeted on D1 if they play, well, like scum.
OR
You and him are teammates and you are covering up for your "LHF" scum mate.
By the way! Your posts have offered no substance so far! Let's change that.
Where are your reads???
PS: Imagine a world where town are offing each other without scum ever moving a finger to influence that result. It happens a lot. It could be happening here.

I don't agree. But I'll drop it until you get me that hard data (you don't really have to I don't care that much).
I don't give a shit he's legacy btw. My start date's not all that later than his.

If the games already ended, can you link me to them please?

Dude are you serious? They literally wallpost about ticky-tack technicalities, focused more on proving a point than reaching an objective. They center discussion around themselves because of their (wildly undeserved) unchecked egos. Their play shows no sign of subtlety or care for sensitive information (as you yourself have pointed out) and they are OMGUS prone. It’s just typical newer player stuff. I’m kind of disappointed I have to explain any of this to you - you really think they’re helping you develop reads and that they’re taking effective actions to improve gamestate??? It feels like I’m handholding you through all this as much as I am the new people though, like do I have to explain what makes good town discussions to you? I’m more inclined to believe you’re willing to throw up easy townreads to defend those creating poor gamestate

Im a stubborn asshole. 48 hours later, I'm gonna think ur scum anyways. Nothing about that convo is gunna change my mind. Your actions in the future have the potential to do exactly that but telling me to go read something that I already read again and trying to say your perspective is better isn't gonna do anything good for you.

Not a good look Gamma. What the hell is that supposed to mean?
I pointed this out as well but I find you scummy for sheeping me but not giving me credit. Feels a bit like the "I'll take credit for this but then if all goes wrong, someone else suggested it first so its alright"
I may be overthinking tho, I admit.

most people won't tell u what ur scum tells are LOL. The reason is that once you know them, you will manipulate them and they will no longer be scum tells.

I see no reason to continue spending my freetime playing a forum game to be insulted by strangers on the internet who obsess on winning a game with no stakes behind it. I don't feel like I'm the only one who feels this game has become toxic either. I'm replacing out.

1) Show me examples of ticky-tack technicalities that we the noobs did wallpost please.
2) Wildly undeserved egos make people make mistakes. Watch and learn noob.
3) What sensitive information is that? I say it because town is the
UNINFORMED
majority.
WOLF SLIP??
4) OMGUS is not always OMGUS, i figured this out after playing for six months. If you are a seasoned player you would know this already and if you did, you are trying to manipulate people into doubting their own emotions upon reacting to another party's accusation. OMGUS is a term that is exploited by wolves to discredit those emotions, the hunches produced by them and the reads generated upon following up those hunches.
I'm kind of disappointed that I have to point this out to you.
5) Yes! Please explain what makes good town discussions. Teach us all master.
6) It is incredible how we mindmeld about Gamma, yet our views and approach are so different.
