You're not allowed to request replace outs.
I wasn’t gonna say that outright, I’m just pushing House’s buttons because he’s either a scumfuck or a dumbfuck rn

Cheating.
Anything i say in direct response to this would get me banned. And you damned well know this, just like you damned well know that if I were able to address what you're referring to, i would easily be able to {snip to avoid ban hammer}
The fact you refuse to even consider that stark reality is how i know you're just scum looking for an easy excuse to vote me.

If he were cheating, he'd have been banned for it. What he did is within site rules. I agree that it was gross, but not as gross as the way you're acting.
Do you think it was actually scummy or are you just voting him out of spite? Because if it's the latter, then uh, I've got bad news about who's bringing in outside influences...

So don't say anything! Nobody is taking Gamma's read seriously.

Discussing ongoing games typically only results in replace outs from my experience, unless you have reason to believe the mods would skip a pretty large step with you
And I’ve already said it was only in response to you say my read on you was bunk, so you could 100% skirt the topic by dropping that point. But you didn’t, because you still felt a need to push me. That’s because you’re scum.

Cheating is anything that gives an unfair advantage, that's the fucking definition, regardless as to whether there's a rule in existence or not.

It's not unfair though. You could say Gamma is scum because of ongoing games too, and he wouldn't be able to respond.

So if we're playing Monopoly and i swipe $500 from the pot when you're not looking, it's not cheating because you can swipe $500 when I'm not looking, too.
Totally.

And I would take it just as seriously as I am taking Gamma's statement, that is to say, not at all. I can't speak for anyone else but you are correct when you say that this is not an accusation you should have reasonably expected to defend yourself against. We can stop talking about it. It doesn't mean you have to completely shut off contact with him.

Not by your own definition!
A more standard definition of cheating at a game means breaking the rules of that game, but that's apparently not the one you're using here.

Meanwhile my working theory is scum is Enchant, H and H and Thor.

Anything used to gain an unfair advantage is cheating.
Even by the boards own rules, he's "skirting the rules" simply by mentioning the term in a game, and "skirting the rules" & "rules lawyering" (angling for loopholes) are both actionable under whatever arbitrary circumstances the mods decide.
Ban baiting should absolutely be formalized as an infraction, but I'm not playing with someone that uses those tactics.

Can you explain your H+H read? I read your earlier posts on them but I don’t get what you’re trying to explain in them.

What do you mean by unfair?

H and H is my weakest one and comes with the awkward way they approach Thor and Enchant.

Also, doesn't cheating have to be deliberate? If Gamma was town, it surely wasn't deliberate, and if he's scum, then I still don't expect him to engage in that kind of psychological manipulation.

This feels cheeky to refer to a partner like this.
