This is the "testing the waters" post. I think he is preparing to bus infinity if things go south for her, but the wagon never takes off enough.In post 321, Gamma Emerald wrote:Do you think scumFinity does that here?In post 319, Ydrasse wrote:it kiiiiinda feels like you're digging in your heels and i don't get it
Here I noticed that Gamma didnt address my read on Infinity. I put her so low on my list in part to troll for a response from Gamma. I felt like he intentionally avoided it when responding to that post, so I followed up specifically asking him what he thought of Infinity, trying to get him to commit to a stance, because I felt like he was sitting fence. And he continues to ride the fence in his response.In post 436, Gamma Emerald wrote:I didn’t get that sense initially but I might see it on reread (this is not saying I’m necessarily gonnaIn post 412, ssbm_Kyouko wrote:What do you think of this part of 308 re: Infinity's push on Skitter?In post 403, Gamma Emerald wrote:tbh I think Pooky is slightly towny rnIn post 398, ssbm_Kyouko wrote:House truly null, Gamma and Pooky in null because they've both done things that are lightly towny and lightly scummy, and to me they feel balanced out.
I'm also curious though, as to why Pooky seems townie to youIn post 398, ssbm_Kyouko wrote:In Infinity's discussion with skitter, I really felt like I was being white knighted at first. I didnt say anything because I wanted to see how long it would go on, and it seemed to me that any push on skitter there was heavily tied to defending me.

Doesnt address my infinity vote but steers the conversation towards DGB.In post 439, Gamma Emerald wrote:Why would you vote DGB to consolidate, doesn’t it have like no votes?In post 423, ssbm_Kyouko wrote:White knighting is used to counterattack skitter here. Essentially the same words could be used to TR me in a different context, where I'm not being pushed by skitter, and that's the distinction. It's because it's tied into your push on skitter who was pushing me at the time. You were using a defense of me in your push on skitter, rather than just explaining a TR on me. It's the context of the words that distinguishes the wk from the trIn post 414, Infinity 324 wrote:@ssbmIn post 400, Infinity 324 wrote:how do you distinguish between a white knight and just me townreading you
VOTE: infinity I want to do this or DGB right now in the interest of consolidating a bit
Doesnt mention the third of my bottom 3, which was infinity at the time.In post 442, Gamma Emerald wrote:Okay why are DGB and galron in your bottom 3 reads?
This whole interaction is theatreIn post 462, Gamma Emerald wrote:cool coolIn post 456, Infinity 324 wrote:i felt like her townread on skitt was good and especially that she expected me to put weight into it. that's a towny biasIn post 454, Gamma Emerald wrote:That’s pretty much what I expectedIn post 448, Infinity 324 wrote:probably townIn post 445, Gamma Emerald wrote:Infinity what’s your thought on Yrdasse atp?
Can you elaborate why though?
I still think it's unlikely scum!ydrasse is like, i need to show i'm excited to be town in my first post
I think this reveals that Gamma has been thinking about the last time he was scum with infinity, probably because he's rolled scum with her this time.In post 465, Gamma Emerald wrote:Not reallyIn post 461, Tetrina wrote:Hmm okay Gamma do you think you and Infinity as 2 scums makes sense?
I feel like our combined trajectory would be different given this would be the second time we rolled scum together to my knowledge and the first one was a tragedy, so I’d definitely want to avoid the same pitfall we fell into before
Here he is still holding fast to a "light TR" which is the same verbiage she uses to describe her read of him, but at the same time he is still poised to flip on her at any moment by hedging on "I'm not certain her play isn't coming from scum yet". Infinity also says something similar about Gamma, that she light TRs him, but isn't sure yet. Eerily similar imo - it feels rehearsed.In post 468, Gamma Emerald wrote:A light TR, though cautious because although I don’t really remember it well I think last time she was scum against me I wasn’t very good at reading thatIn post 453, ssbm_Kyouko wrote:Gamma what's your read on infinity now then if you're not necessarily going to reread her and skitter?
And just generally I’m not certain her play isn’t coming from scum yet
The only purpose of this post is to draw attention to 487, which if DGB is town, can be used in defense of Infinity at a later date after DGB flips. DGB is not exactly highly regarded, but Gamma is. If he draws attention to it, people might pay more attention.In post 489, Gamma Emerald wrote:*strokes beard thoughtfully*In post 487, DrippingGoofball wrote:It's been my experience that infinity is an "easy scumread" - a weakness that scum would definitely exploit.
Infinity, have you had a disproportionate number of scum on your final wagons? Including scum that suspects you but may be voting elsewhere for cover?
Using my case for cover, and moves to Galron to begin with. I do think these 3 are the team and that Gamma is bussing Galron here.In post 493, Gamma Emerald wrote:DGB and Galron’s current posting is making me feel like kyouko may have a point
I had to ask a few times to get him to respond, I think he thought I might drop it because i was preoccupied with other posting. I was staying busy elsewhere as a facade though because I wanted him to keep his guard down as much as I could because I just caught him recently in mini 2217 owners market blitzIn post 575, Gamma Emerald wrote:Her push on skitter felt genuine to me, as did her approach to reading me, though I think the skitter push is a stronger pointIn post 574, ssbm_Kyouko wrote:@GammaIn post 507, ssbm_Kyouko wrote:This was for Gamma but got ninjadIn post 471, ssbm_Kyouko wrote:So what about her current play seems to be coming from town, but may actually be scummy play that you're not sure of yet?
For context, since we're further in the thread: "her" is Infinity
I think putting DGB with Galron here is more of a ploy to prepare to move his vote off of Galron when it becomes possible.In post 577, Gamma Emerald wrote:Not quite
I could potentially see that being the case but think Infinity is towny atm
So it’s DGB/Galron/? for me
To be clear I don’t think DGB and Galron coming in like they did is an indicator Infinity is scum, moreso that they seemed to feel pressured
This I feel like is a weak ass reason to swap the votes and that feels orchestrated to me.In post 623, Gamma Emerald wrote:Okay this might be town :/In post 619, Galron wrote:I think Blade Dancer is Titus. If not, I dunno.
I feel like this wouldn’t happen if Galron had a scum PT

If you’re referring to the post directly below that’s actually not how I tend to do it as scumIn post 801, ssbm_Kyouko wrote:Gamma has said in the past that as scum he makes this kind of post about a buddy in order to gauge whether there is any interest in eliminating them. It let's him know if a bus will be necessary, and if nobody bites, it indirectly can have the effect of taking his partner off the table for the day. I think what is happening in the rest of these posts here is not WKing, but is scum!Gamma defending his buddy
