nah he's town

he just has really awful reads.

I had to read his entire ISO for TM and he knows how bad he plays when he has a town role pm lolol

I actually respect Norwegian's Town play a lot and we normally mind-meld quite a bit when we're both Town, which isn't happening at all here.

I'm gonna stay open-minded as I'm not convinced he's scum yet, but as I said no Town pings thus far

instead of explaining to me why im wrong

you would rather die and make me die too

very helpful

you don't even push people as strongly as you've been pushing people when you're town.
At least from what I've seen, you only play like this when ur a wolf. It's sus.

day, i appreciate the response, ty
unfortunatley i kinda feel like you're a bit wishy-washy rn :/

pooky ty for that one too!!

people i have some level of a townread on: pooky, lucy (maybe?), fark, luca, ss , norwee

i thought about including mena but decided to take him out - i think that's more of a ping than anything else

also Ali saying something like "i'm fine flipping my townread to prove you wrong" seems really in character. no shade but spite is an Ali emotion.

glad I don't have to actually read the case to know that it's just pooky picking the events that sound the worst.
I can only imagine thats what any case would look like given how far we are into the actual game.

I townread all of these players except Pooky.
Why do you townread Pooky?

In post 697, PookyTheMagicalBear wrote:oops sorry for the wrong pronouns

should be eir iso etc.

the progression does not make sense because if Ali is willing to let Ydra die to see if Ali is wrong about Pooky/Ydra

Me unvoting ydra should make Ali less willing to kill me, not more.

That's why I said E is thinking in terms of mis-elims, not figuring out the truth.

You know I don't actually think this way right?
I see your Ydra push and I go "Okay, so there's probably 1 scum in here" and then I try to figure out who is the scum in there.
I'm okay with flipping Ydra, at least at that point in time, because my reads were just so different and maybe I'm the one who has their head up their ass and is completely wrong?

I mean isn't that what a scumcase always is...?

i think he pushes all the pushes harder as scum (i.e. like through to a lim) and doesn't back off as easily (ydrasse, you once i said i wasn't interested)

unless literally his whole game is like to try to pocket me (which i suppose is possible)

In post 701, Day wrote:Having no room to see both of Pooky and Ydrasse being town doesn't seem genuine. Why can't Pooky be wrong also be town instead of 'just scum'? It feels more like that's what Alisae wants that to be perceived as, as it helps their win con and both of Pooky and Ydrasse are town. Seeing at least 1 scum in Pooky and Menalque is also more of the same kind of thing.

because of his confidence and how he's pushing Ydra. The posts I quoted in my catch-up made me think he was pushing Ydra with a fact not a read. He had a very justified push on Ydra and townies want to be more right instead of justified. Pushing someone with a justified push and wanting to have more ironclad reasoning is a scum trait.

Most of the time yes but not all of the time

I think I can comment on this because I kind of relate to this mentality as scum.
In One Night Stand I pushed things and then when I realized that person wasn't elimable anymore I backed off and tried to find somewhere else to go.
What ended up happening was a lot of people townread me for it because it seemed really natural.

So I want to ask you what you think the motivation behind this is, because I think the motivation could be that Pooky realizes that no one is buying it so he's backing off and looking for something else.

I don’t get this reaction otherwise tbh.

Is your meaning you think it is obvious that you're a villager?

I don’t think I’ve obviously towntold myself but Pooky’s read on me is way too strong for it to be a naturally formed read that comes from the desire to be right.

That's funny, because I actually feel the same about your Pooky read rn

It is! It is! <3

Can you elaborate on this? I haven't had the same impression

idk. the waogn on you seems to have some sort of traction, and i don't think that me saying i disagree inherently kills it, but he immediatley backed off right when i did

and pooky! obviously you're pocketing me, i meant in a scum way of course!

eh maybe let's downgrade pooky to like townping/+town (i.e. as opposed to a fullblown townread) but still i'm not sure i'm buying scum here really

This is weak, Town!Norwee is better than this

dont townlock me skitter

i dont want to get nightkilled

just want to dance with you <3

luca remind me how much experience you have with norwee again?

i'm not gonna townlock you pooky :)

You think this occurs to town-Alisae but doesn't occur to scum-Alisae trying to emulate their town thought processes?

As scum I don't emulate my town thought processes because I'm not playing town.
However I will say that my entire gameplay in One Night Stand was me just mimicking the expectations people have for me when I play town because those players don't understand how my scumgame actually works.
While up to One Night Stand, I had a very proactive scumgame with the focus on driving the narrative and controlling the agenda. (Pooky was IN this game btw and it fooled him)
However when I randed scum in One Night Stand I realized that if I do this, I'm just going to die immediately. So I just didn't. I conceded proactivity for survivability.
Now note I was still very much the same for example:

In post 707, PookyTheMagicalBear wrote:town alisae is more likely to think about T/T whereas scum alisae is just looking for mis-elims and pushing a pooky/ydra dichotomy is very pro-scum if P/Y are both town.

Yes to half of this. As scum, I am looking for mis-elims constantly and trying to explore those.
However the other half is literally just something I do as both alignments because as town, this is how I solve. It's what works for me. As scum, I do in fact use this to push one push the other.

to see the situation as having 1 scum in it as it helps their win con.

this is just how I solve. I considered pooky being right on Ydra but I also considered that Pooky could just be scum. Pooky being wrong on Ydra with how they're pushing ydra doesn't occur to me because judging his push, it means he has a smoking gun on ydra and that ydra would almost surely flip scum, or that Pooky is just scum.

You have a fundamental error here.

Scum!Alisae does not emulate town!alisae's thought process.

Scum!Alisae believes in pushing scum role objectives. The goal for Scum!Alisae is not to blend in, it's to push mis-elims and win.

You were in One Night Stand. One Night Stand was just me blending in. Are we ignoring the existence of this game? Why are you ignoring this game?

like I really enjoy this PL

and I like this game a lot

and I really enjoy dancing with Skitter.

so I don't really get why people seem to think my pushes are pushing for elimination.

I don't like killing people.

Unless I'm like scum

then I really like killing people

but even then this is a bit soon :3

Think about it objectively based on the # of people you need to kill someone and the # of people who aren't willing to vote me. For the sake of this, include yourself in the pool of # of people that are willing to vote me.

In post 729, Farkran wrote:Like this is EXACTLY why i haven't been attacking your position on alisae -- consistently with your previous votes, i thought that your scumhunting process was to stir the waters and see what sticks, which makes sense from a town perspective

this isn't how town!pooky usually conducts himself tho its weird!

In post 843, Alisae wrote:You were in One Night Stand. One Night Stand was just me blending in. Are we ignoring the existence of this game? Why are you ignoring this game?

Well you remember what I said about one night stand and the TR on you there.

it was pretty much on point!

so on point you tried to use it to breadcrumb to FL :3

Also it's more out of the norm than your typical scum-game.

And I don't think you enjoyed blending in very much - since you didn't seem to enjoy one night stand very much :3

so why wouldn't you go back to the tried and true?

right exactly, i dont' think you're trying to kill anyone here

i wanna say that i like ali on this page

also i feel like i have an outsized number of townreads on me

it didn't really fool me tho

I said you were playing a more relaxed game and hence town unless you were exactly teamed with Flavor Leaf

I then pushed FL out a window and he flipped scum cuz he had the worst botched claim eva lol.

so I would've come back to you at some point :3.

probably to kill you since you tried so hard to defend FL from me with some fake doctor claim.
