If you're running into the correct narrative, you're /good/ at the game; one of the biggest traps is writing out a false narrative and convincing yourself on the basis of the false one, because it /absolutely/ will lead you astray. (That, by the way, is why I don't consider myself that good.)

he shouldn't be tearing himself down over a game where he played very well, yeah, but i understand the impulse.

i was mafia btw

The site is lucky to have you.

Your play style is something the site needs more of.

We have MUSH mainly to thank if we win this.

His trust in LLD/Isis trumps Noraa’s pocket, so starting to actually be optimistic. He has repeatedly made it a point how upset he was about Isis replace out and how he wants to make her proud.

Do it Pooky! Do it for Isis, world peace and and most importantly, for the memes.

guys, let Noraa win on her birthday. Don't be mean.

But she’s scuuuuuuuuuumz.

And it’s no longer her birthday, that was yesterday, so Pooky doesn’t have to feel bad about that.

i hate the world

this would mean 2 lost lylos in a week

Don't do it Pooky! Do it for shelly, noraa's birthday, and all the scummos

He might just be trolling tho.

omg are they focusing on the scumslip i called out in my ~48 hours of playing the game in eLo? Beautiful

You should get a scummie

Ftr I’m not sold that this is a real scumslip. We can ask noraa postgame.

Agreed.

Sometimes, like Bell with Fred, it's less the reasons why you get people on wagon and more getting them there in the first place: you can always call them a nincompoop for following you with bad reasons afterwards.

Reasons are overrated.

Looks like nothing until tomorrow then.

Poor noraa gonna wake up for classes and see everything went to shit.

whats the "scumslip"?

oh i think i know what it is but I don't think its a scumslip

why won't you believe in me Nero

in the universes where it is a scumslip, the speaker wouldn't identify it as such. There's a category of those where the speaker would but this isn't one where that'd function right. That doesn't mean it's definitely a scumslip. I think there's a bunch of them where you just like can never ever really know.

it could be IG, idk. I think it was an attempt at trying to sound "townie" and saying that she's going to take scum down with her as opposed to talking to her scumteam but eh...

oh i don't think she was talking to her scumteam, that's not how I interpreted it. I interpreted it like she was thinking about lolhammering her looking good and being rewarded for a hammer in line with town consensus (it doesn't feel like scumclaiming to acknowledge town consensus), but it's a slip to not step forward in thought 1 step to one people flip to being upset that she didn't flip how expected (because she actually would flip how expected). That works with a town listener.

Talking to scumpartners is some weird 9d chess angle to take it, it does create something incriminating if you view it that way but it seems even less plausible as an interpretation.

*to when people flip to being upset

How did we miss this.

This is why I started scumreading her again after Gl0ria Cleary told me that what Noraa did is outside her emotional scumrange. Anyway, looks like the scumteam is losing.

It sounds like something that almost makes sense, just with some words swapped maybe? I distinctly remember reading it and I didn't think anything of it, because without paying much attention, it sounded like it made sense.

I found the response.

I think I was getting a few things mixed up when I said that.
I was thinking if anyone accidentally hammers, confscum.
I was also thinking anyone that doesn't know my meta that doesn't jump on me is trying to get towncred.

mixed those together and we got ourselves a "forced townslip" and a "forced scumslip" now eh?
I sure am good at slipping. where's LLD and her confident SR at?

Never mind.

You know, shellyc, I think you would have survived if you dug up believable reasons to scumread me because, had you done so, I wouldn't have even said I thought I was going to survive in the Mafia Private Thread and you wouldn't have backed down on me in response to that and be caught.
