You have examples that come to mind for you?

Gaming Style. I don't put much thought in it at start of game.

No idea what this us supposed to mean.

What I'm asking is did you have any outside hope scum might attack you or were you just making a joke for fun?

dwlee was a backup vig in a game with no vig

idk i feel like it happens a lot, mods don't like people being able to solve their setups so they mess with expectations

In a town skitter world, this could be scum fire trying to feed drama. Of course, fire is also bad at reading me, so not sure I put a lot of stock in it. Just strikes me as convenient timing just as skitter was getting a little annoyed with me aggressively calling for her head.

not sure I really do either. Just feels like he kind of started sussing me right as you did, so paranoia!

Ok. I'm at like page 11 and I'm going to take a break (do actual work for awhile).

Not sure I gained much insight, but I think Prism looks a little better reading her exchange with Ari and putting it through the lens of her explanation that she felt kind of targeted for playstyle Ari is aware of. Not sure I think Ari was actually doing that intentionally, but if that was Prism's perception, it makes more sense why she was getting very tilted right there.

a mailman cannot confirm if a player is ascetic.

because if the target is not ascetic, they can simply pretend to have not received the message


mailman =/= checker

the only utility is finding a scum ascetic that is unclaimed.

Can probably vote skitter. Not townreading Datisi (and am actually voting him for lack of clear better option) but still think her approach to me/Aristeia was wonky. Call it gut but I really don't think VP Baltar is scum. If he wants to push me he just does it, and if he doesn't there's no real need to reread and circle back and waffle around. I'm fine throwing him in the bucket and calling it a day. I also just find the game hatred point from Skitter prodding around Datisi a bad line of questioning. Dude hates the game either way, complete masochist, just saw it in PYP.

it wasn't arbitrary to me. town!skitter pokes at anything that is of interest to her in the early game. scum!skitter hates her life. so one way of finding out which one i am dealing with is trying to see whether her pokes actually make sense and have solving intention behind them or whether they're there because they have to be there. and if i see her "poking" at something that really looks like a nonsense dead end, i'm gonna call it out because that would fit the image of scum!skitter more than town!skitter.

i feel like i have pushed at more miniscule things in my mafia career, but i don't know off the top of my head whether you've SEEN me do that, so i'll chill for now but
I have seen you critique many small things, some of which do not make sense to me. I haven't really seen you criticize playstyle and throw it under alignment. If you're that curious as to what the scumpings from Dwlee were, you could have taken a page from your own book and asked.

From my perspective criticizing "Because...?" was an obvious deadend. The broader skitter model you're presenting here is not implausible but is trivial to present as scum.

In general pretty lethargic, we'll see how much I actually get done today. Plenty of slots to stare at if I want to.
