I found you refusing to interact with me because you scumread me to be quite unpleasant, demoralizing, and basically the point where i recognized the game would be a loss
You had a variety of posts on day4 that were almost mocking, rude, and were almost trying to piss me off

I dont think we flip alyssa (or even necessarily me) today if you didnt force this cross vote, which wcum were obviously quite happy about
meh
i really really wanted catboi and just was like ok let me just pick 50/50 from my not as sure PoE
i included the "i wouldn't n1 my friends was funny" line in my unvote of catboi because it in fact solidified my scumread there because epicmafia people used that line *all the fucking time* as AtE after they indeed did, n1 their friend.
Did the meta shift that way, there were a ton of people who used to trust tell with that shit and I always hated it
i mean that was like 2016/2017 people used it for trust tells and then later on people just said it as AtE lol.
what comes to mind is people like charley n1ing shady and then immediately being like "I INVITED SHADY OMG I WOULD NEVER N1 HIM"

imma be honest and say that some of the early pushes i made were strategic in removing inactive low effort people that i just had low in my PoE with less critical thought on if theyre town because like .. even if we mislim a couple times its better to have actives alive then inactives

Spoiler:
i mean sure, if i'm scum i probably would, but if i' town (and i was town!) it meant to me that if you were town it would be a loss (and it was) since i:
- would have a very, very, very hard time recognizing town-you
- would have no oppurtunity to change your mind on scum-me, since you wouldnt let me
And being unable to do anything about that for like two weeks since you wouldnt even entertain what i had to say was more than a little bit frustrating.
I had ro get alyssa to ask my questions for me to get you to even acknowledge what i had to say at some point. I find this to be against the spirit of the game, and just unpleasant to play with, and its not something i want to do again
I also *hate* being strongarmed into voting
I also found these sorts of posts to be inceredibly distasteful, dismissive, mocking, and rude. It was pissing me off, and other people told you that it was unpleasant, and you continued:

I can throw this right back at you, stop acting all holier than thou like you've got a great scumcase on me that's more than just 'skitter is scum' because that's apparently conveninwnt for you to push rn
You're ignoring that i've already laid out my issues with your play today (which you've never addressed), and are curiouslu not calling dats or catboi scum for making the same exact points as me, for no reason other than it doesnt fit your agenda apparently
This reads like baseless nonsense
Please keep instigating me - I've lacked the WIM to go through your ISO and case you for a while and it's been itching at me. :lol:
The scumcase is more of things you *lack* in your posts which is hard to quanitfy - something players who aren't straight up garbage as scum are able to do, lie by omission - and my main case is that your ISO *lacks* analysis and critical thinking that you display as town. I have no issues with my play and you know very well I'm well within my townrange (:
Also - I do please invite you to give proof of catboi and datisi making the same posts as you. (meanwhile I am seeing what alyssa is seeing now from datisi). Catboi is approaching this with honesty and has ceded lack of confidence after I provided counterevidence(he won't argue back and forth with me beacuse last time we were both town and I tried to argue myself into why I was town he just kinda dug himself deeper into the conclusion I was scum rofl). You can claim something different is the same by removing nuance and critical thought but it won't change reality <3

that's v fair
I thought what we were doing had better chances of working than... anything else we could likely do given game state at that point but I was seriously worried you'd be like "hey, waitasecond, I remember the last time mena was in a bad spot with a good town..."
scum got quite lucky that town couldn't coordinate I think (not to do down my scum buddies who I think made the right decision to let things sort of implode instead of trying v hard to dominate and control things!)

re: people talking about not being able to keep up as town :
try to just focus on the recent activity strictly and then go from there. i myself did this when replacing in, and then referenced the content i missed over time when needed by doing ISO searches.
you dont need the whole game, you just need the meaty part of the conversations.
at worst, if you say something that is wrong/out of date, they can correct you and you'll be able to have a specfic area to reread to update yourself.
If everyone did this, it would make players who struggle to keep up help raise the overall townplay.
tl;dr: use the iso tool and only read recent stuff to stay at least somewhat relevant. it also helps when youre town to show you are trying to stay engaged and are helping contribute to a solve. if you have a part wrong because you didnt read it, another player in the game can always quote you and correct you.
that being said, there should be a tool to only see posts where people quoted you. that would be cool.
I have been doing this in games i replace into that have significant content and it's worked well (i was 2/3 correct on scum most of the game and even reached a proper PoE at the end without ever reading much of day 1)
Highly recommended.

I mean it was p immediately and obviously a garbage claim, the fact that you kinda disappeared like right afterwards tho meant i couldnt really talk to u abt it, and then i became busy irl, and since its elo and i hate commiting in elo at that point i started doubting and being uncertain if i was certain enuf to bet the game on it
