this is why i keep asking you stuff, trying to figure out how you think about things because i don't -really- have experience with you. so i have to consider whether this is simply a matter of playstyles clashing as the self-deprecating wounded pride stuff seems real enough to me, but every time you get pushed on things i feel you never really open up and understanding you is completely impossible for meIn post 7347, Spiffeh wrote:perfect description of my town game I'm glad you've finally come around!In post 7345, petapan wrote:thoroughly mediocre

@hp that was my second-best guess, but i honestly dont remember what tvt fights we've had in the past, so, uh, kinda confused abt what fights we've gotten into ...
If it helps, knowing your main coupled with knowing how little you effort as scum you're probably just town but i need to like reorient around that
Honestly dont know what u mean that I'm awful at reading you, youre a pretty easy read off of motivation and effort as best i can rememberShowHiatus once more.

what i'm seeing in this iso is that you'll make some reads, give a little bit of backing to them, but you look like you've been afraid to really push on anything, you joined the push on shelly after there was momentum on her and helped bury her, opened day 2 voting almost50 but doesn't feel like a vote with conviction, it's stuff like "bad iso with words without meaning", it's how i would talk as scum if i was trying to get a lurker chopped, and to an extent it feels like you're throwing that out there without really making an effort to be persuasive, it's just a thing that you're doing. when i ripped skitter i was similarly annoyed with her throwing out votes i felt were halfhearted but it felt consistent with a townie who has little conviction in their reads and i've played with her some so it felt in character. this feels like a read you claim to have conviction in but don't really assert much and it feels incongruousfree crypto- petapan

this, in particular, is interesting to me because knowing what we now know, it doesn't feel like at all a fair justification for a scumread - i think this is exactly how a town-aligned tracker would respond to a claim like shelly's, with a role that not only is seemingly redundant to theirs but mimics its function exactly. i think it fits in with his play so far of trying to stay low key.In post 3155, Spiffeh wrote:

Welp ok fine i forgot abt that one, and i didnt go that far back cuz you made it sound like it was more recently than that
But other than that i think i'm kinda on the money? Like your just read on motivation most of the time

i don't. the last guy was six months ago (which is why i thought it was him, because the timeline matched up), you were close to a year ago.In post 6069, Hench Princesses wrote:Who else have you had a TvT fight with about your read accuracy?
and i'm p sure i'm usually p accurate on you, i think the mbos was an outlier because as best as i can remember i usually have a p firm town/scum read on you off of that metric. i dont remember exactly what the mbos fight was abt either
like as soon i actually got around to reading your game in TM last year i had you pegged as scum early, and i spent forever tryng to get {well i'm not sure if you want me to be so precise as to narrow which game that was, so i'll just say 'my teammate'} to get you wagoned.
i need to rethink your a50 read too vis-a-vis myself.
ok back to work but i'll do this laterShowHiatus once more.

but the thing about trying to ding a50 for his response to the claim is, well, look at spiffeh's trajectory there:
314 - early town read on shelly
392 - "I don't really get why shelly is being scum read" "posting was very stream-of-conscious which I think is hard for newer players to fake as scum"
464 - cites a string of posts as stream of cosnciousness
466 - wouldn't said shelly to the other thread if the plan is to turnstile scummy players
467 - attacks muffin for shading his read on shelly
473 - criticizes bell for not giving a reason why he's confident on shelly being scum
485 - "shelly could very well be scum, I just don't feel that way and apparently a lot of people disagree"
557 - asks shelly to explain her brian skies scum read
612 - says shelly is too low in unwnd's readslist
1021 - "shelly just isn't DOIN IT for me" (in the context of who he should vote)
1271 - votes shelly, "I know I said I was townreading her earlier get over it"
1479 - gives a poe of {Pooky, Almost50, pisskop, shellyc, Hench Princesses}
1894 - reads list with shelly as a scum lean, "I initially town read shellyc but p. much all my town reads are scum reading her and her naked vote on Pooky without even acknowledging her previous certainty that Bell was scum doesn't make any sense"
1980 - "I think it's possible she realized her Bell push was being met with a lot of resistance and scum reads so she's lurking it out"
2545 - "I think shelly's probably telling the truth about her role, but that doesn't really mean anything one way or the other in terms of her alignment"
2653 - "She could literally be telling the complete truth about her role and still be scum"
2725 - "The longer shelly remains absent after her claim the more I want her to die"
2764 - "I'm fine with limming any of {shellyc, Almost50, Gypyx} today, in that order with strong preference to shellyc"
This, to me, is exactly what i would describe as someone looking to "coax the wagon along without having to commit any feelings toward it". sure he names her as a scum read, but there's not really a lot of substance to it, just saying he's following his townreads, then accusing her of lurking out and casting doubt on her claim when people were considering not eliminating her. i think him trying to put blame on a50 for his approach to the wgon when he behaved this way is hugely scummy.free crypto- petapan
