I have no idea how long my work day is going to be today since I was sick yesterday, so I would like to sit out the sub adventure this time.

It probably just another dumb reaction test like yours, although the extra line about me being suspicious does leave a slightly sour taste in my mouth.

Usually MMT does her little test without trying to cast as much shade.

On a scale of 1-10, how much shade would you say I was throwing on you?

Eh, we know too little for that. It may even be advantageous for them to have nobody on the sub. Pretty sure the only thing we can say is that at least one scum will be on the sub, unless they want to gamble and lose the information advantage.

(a) it’s d1 and I can’t imagine we have any good reads on people yet
(b) we don’t know what the sub does so there no reason to assume scum wants on it

I disagree with your logic here in (b). It's a day event, of course scum are going to want to be in on it. We don't know what it does, sure, so it could be completely meaningless, but there's also a chance for a boon or potential sabotage. At least one scum has already or will volunteer, if not multiple. I'd be willing to bet on that. (And just from a having fun in game perspective, if you're going to be around why wouldn't anyone, regardless of alignment, want to participate?)

However, I agree with your overall point: that it feels fake. Moat might as well be saying "Scum probably wants to vote yeah? This should be a consideration". It's made to look like he is participating or helping, but it is completely meaningless.

as long as we're reasoning whether or not we have reason to assume, or not, if scum want on the sub, I usually assume scum have more info about events than we do.

any decision they make is colored by info that we don't know if they have or not, so let's not go down that rabbit hole for all of day one thanks

there is only one hell:
the one we live in now
point of clarification:
- while it is time sensitive, it's not so sensitive that people in strange and exotic time zones or who have a job couldn't participate.

you have about three hours left to figure out who's going.

Yeah I don't think there's really any point speculating ourselves silly about how many scum want on the sub/why they want on the sub/what scum can do on the sub. I'm with others in that it seems reasonable to assume there's probably one scum among the people who want to be on the sub but other than that it's probably not worth our time to speculate heavily over it.

Usually your tests are more like 'Let's try this' or 'I have a theory' but this felt different. Maybe it was just the timing with Maxs vote but when combined with the strangely suspicious remark it just felt more opportunistic than usual.

Frankly, you're kind of giving me the same vibe as Tobbs in those first couple of days in the Samurai game. You don't quite feel wrong yet, but you don't really feel right either.

I kind of felt like the timing and lack of any obvious reason made it obvious my joke was a vote? I wasn’t expecting anything to actually come of it beyond a joking reply.

You’re giving me the same vibes as I had from .... uhh whatever that game was where I was suspicious of you and faked anger at me to get out of it (I think aqualine conspiracy?). That said, the last time I caused someone for that it (ff6) was kind of a disaster so I’m fine back-burnering that thought for now.
