eh. looking back, it was less then I remembered. I remembered him freaking out at my push, claiming to try to get me to stop, and then trying to guilt me for being so heartless as to push him soon after his rep in and not stopping when he claimed.
Looking back at it, it actually looks more like manipulation then actually freaking out. So :shrug:

Yeah, they haven't done anything to disturb that halo on their head. You think I missed something?
Not necessarily. My notes are "Dislike Frog and Luke, feels like ~350ish is s/s [\n] JF TR Luke?" so I've just been meaning to ask about it. Something wasn't rubbing right around then, but I suspect a lot of you have a better feel for him as a player than I do.
The copy paste off of the notes.
The notes look non-useful. But also, they literally never responded to the comments about their notes. They said nothing, but also never mention anything off of their notes again.
I actually think that if they had defended their notes usage I would have felt better about this. But the non-response just felt like them hoping it would go away.
Only person listed in his lowest tier for scum in 1442 was Mala. But then also seemed annoyed that he was being scum read for lurking.
Both of those are...

In post 1763, Corwinoid wrote:mala who's been both low activity and low content when she is posting.
A thought that started unrelated to Corwin was thinking about the way that the scum team is apparently treating me. When pooky posted the reads list, and I apparently had 19 town reads and 0 scum reads, I realized that that meant that at some point the entire scum team decided that it was not worth it to fight the growing consensus that I am town.
Obviously, the scum team would not have thought that out the gate. Early on there were a couple of people saying that they are hesitant to town read me in general (pooky, Bella) and some people outright scum reading me (Galron, Rad, Frog).
So the scum team should have thought that there would be possible support against me at some point (unless the scum team is exactly Pooky, Bella, Galron, Rad, Frog lmao), but then at some point this game decided to abandon hope of keeping me from becoming truly consensus.
And when I read through Corwin's iso last night, I felt like I saw that when I looked at his progression on me.
I started to gather up town reads, and he started trying to poke into them with 1107/1114. Floating me as one of his only two voiced scum reads, floating me as a partner to a fairly widely scum read player, and trying to talk Johnny out of town reading me.
But then he was met with strong backlash about his comment about his notes.
And that discussion was completely and totally dropped.
The next time I show up in his iso, almost all of the other reads lists have come out showing how consensus town read I am, and then I am not a scum read in his Reads list of 1442. No comment on anything I did making him think that I was town, no interaction with me, nothing.
And when it was brought up that I was not on there, here was his response.

That was me. I'm feeling Frog even less; you've just kinda dropped off my radar right now.
He scum reads frog even harder then before, but he just stopped thinking about me.
Which did not jive for me with the fact that his earlier working theory was that we specifically looked partnered. Because if he thinks two players look partnered, and then thinks that one of them is getting even more scummy, I just don't feel like you forget about that other player. If anything, he should have been looking at me even more??
I would love to wake up to a pretty mathblade wagon.

I did that yesterday
And today
And tried to form a townblock

So I have to spend 10000 posts arguing I am town against “Corwin is aggro”
Then moving the damn goal posts
Versus building a town block which is remarkably protown

Like, yes. Pooky was calling you scum.
But there was also multiple slots defending you. Off the top of my head, Me, Both heads of Dancing Puppets, OTH all made posts about stopping your wagon.
The thread did not need 10000 posts from you arguing with Pooky.

Hi Klick! Can you point to some post(s) that make you feel this way? I have a harder time understanding other people's reads when they're in the abstract
So I suspect I'll get ire from a number of people for this, but I'll preface this post by saying that another read-through of Corwin's ISO in a different state of mind has me townreading him.
What I originally saw was more about what I couldn't see in Corwin's posts rather than what I could see, and as such it'd be difficult to demonstrate what I was seeing with quotes. I think Corwin has a type of posting style that I'm naturally likely to read as scummy, because his posts feel crafted to me. But I can see looking at his ISO now how the posts he decides to post come from town who feels like he's saying whatever is on his mind at the time.
This is a shit answer to the actual question you've asked here! But it's what I'm thinking.
But when I looked back at when 3268 was written, the math wagon had already kinda fallen to the back ground I think?
Like, it happened in a couple phases. Me pushing for Math to die in 2400s -> 2914
{Klick making 3268 and 3302}
Then Pooky picked the cause back up in 3304
It is actually kind of a weird time for him to do that tbh.
Glad we just get to deal with the invest result today instead of actually having to solve it lmao

It felt like mislim Bait was pushing hard to get the malcolm counter wagon to be a thing.
Math was probably a modified pr with a neighbor such as a RB’r or something like that.
I lowkey need to see how this wagon went down and I know marh was on the block d1
I wish cephrir went with his gut bc that would have helped miles
+1
Since Corwin was pushing you, it means my read on you was probably wrong and probably BBT as well.
