Pinterest Mom posted:It's notable as part of a pattern of weird misunderstandings from you, though It's not weird when people in this game have been unsure about what party alignment might mean, and was only a little more confusing when he actually explained that those names just kinda came to him, he didn't pick them. That's why I was asking for clarification.

Kashuno posted:This is a really bad post. Questioning birdstrike isn't scummy and trying to be like "birdstrike wouldn't do this!!!" is a trash argument. You also don't make a comment about who among BS' numbers you think is scum. Your comments on Pmom here are just words that have no alignment data behind them. Questioning "ONE OF THESE PLAYERS IS SCUM" by asking a flavor question that's been debated to already feels like they're trying to pull us off what feels like a pretty nice gift of a 1 in 3, and as pmom pointed out, this isn't the first time max's gotten weird about words in ways that don't quite make sense. Max posted:Do you think Pmom is scum or town when you ask them this question? People casing me when I'm town always makes me raise an eyebrow but I don't feel like he's being disingenuous and surviving to day 2 is often a scumtell for me, so I'm undecided. But I want to see the opinion.

Like the idea of Ecco "gently caress cops" Raven having a mechanic where a player just receives a list and is told one of the people there is scum stretches the imagination, unless it's an ecco cop that gets sent to someone else.

Yeah. I'm not actively doubting Birdstrike, but I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around the implications of the ability. Three townies being confirmed almost seems worse for scum than having one scum found by a normal cop.

Actually, I can see that working if it's like a forwarding Ecco cop, you aren't quite sure if the person you are sending the results to is scum or town.

The tone of the response is what does, not the activity itself. Stop being so ludicrously obtuse. Not only that, KFC isn't playing poorly they're just phrasing their answers in a way that bothers me. KFC feels like they are dancing around putting down solid scum reads, so I blatantly asked them for solid scum reads and even then they don't give a straight answer.

I've been in two mafia games before--in one of them I was largely worthless, in the other one I was scum. I don't have much experience actually casing someone, there's a lot that doesn't stand out to me immediately. Let's go with... 100 Years, see what garage milk secrets I can find.

I just did? It's not a straightforward and self assured answer to the question, it's dodgy and deceitful. A person who believed the people they mention as scum are actually scum would have some confidence to their tone, whereas as KFC is stumbling around just answering as if they want to make sure to have an easy out because they know the people they are choosing aren't scum

I didn't read that as a claim. I wasn't aware that cop stuff with ecco was a 'thing' and I thought he was just laying down his best hunches. KFC, Grandi, and Keane were the ones whose interactions up to the point seemed the most noteworthy; I more or less mentioned why. Though it's certainly a lot more helpful to know that it's actually hard information than just people to pick through.

Alright, so here's my read on 100Yrs: He subs into the thread when it's still relatively focused on the early Pinterest/Somber conflict, although that isn't still actively going on (it's being talked out, but I think the bulk of the initial conflict had passed, if that makes any sense). He gives some general commentary on the state of the town, and then votes Kord who he says he reads as scum "without a shadow of a doubt". There isn't any explanation at the time, but he does provide a case within the hour, so I don't really find that scummy in and of itself. I can certainly understand wanting to get some posts in before diving in and spending a bunch of time making a big case on someone. His Kord case touches on a couple main points: Kord voting Taste but talking about Pinterest (I think Pinterest was the first to point this out), some weirdness of his reasoning between Taste and Pinterest (he called Taste scum for a meta read, but didn't address Pinterest's meta read), and disliking his town read on Atomic Soda (speaking of which, I should go back and read AS after this). Overall it seems well thought out. He stays on Kord for a while, but after Kord steps up his engagement, switches to Keane, for being around but not contributing (bit of a meta read as well, here). It's a little weird how he says he'd be willing to switch to Taste if he can't convince people to go for Keane, and then doesn't really make a case on Keane--certainly not up to the standards of his Kord case. He then goes back to "Hey, I'd still be willing to vote Kord" before ultimately switching his vote back, although he expresses doubt that it would be able to hammer. Overall... that last bit is kind of weird, but his reads seem genuine enough that I feel fairly comfortable calling him Town.

My agenda for tonight is reread you and somber more in depth review grandi's hats case. If I buy it then I'd say that's actually a point against you since I liked Somber's hats call out early on for padding and I don't recall feeling it was bussy.
