Appeal to Emotion

like i said, vintage madge behaviour, carry on losers

EGW wrote: ↑Fri Sep 06, 2024 2:23 am As in, I considered that Glue might be giving attention to both his scum mates to try to spew them. What made me consider the team is your individual actions. However I'm reconsidering you again now because of Gluelock's shroop on Wam, and I do think your point of not putting full effort Day 1 makes sense.

oh I see, so you think glue thought the writing was on the wall and he was gonna flip for sure so he just decide to try to maximally distance himself from his mates? I better understand your POV now, from my pov knowing Im town thats an impossibility from my perspective so him shading me so much obviously comes off much different'

EGW wrote: ↑Fri Sep 06, 2024 2:24 am I think these will be the best options for today:

Gluelock, Wam, Madge.

do you think gluelock even attempts to give that final readslist as scum at L-2 hours before deadline? seems like it hurts more than it helps his mates tbh like he already had no paper trail for the most part why not leave it that way?

I really think madge is in her own world this game, does she play this was as scum? I dont think ive ever played with scum madge

I've misread wam plenty of times so willing to here you out more on that pick

madge wrote: ↑Fri Sep 06, 2024 2:38 am look i'd rather the fig leaf of plausible deniability to make scum kill me tonight (not like anyone's ever killed me N1, i feel so hurt) so let's leave it

OK I see now, lower PR = non-role madness to you. Ok, this slip does make sense then.

George, you’ve been pushing this solve for a couple of pages, and I don’t think I agree with your reason, Refer to the underlined:

EGW wrote: ↑Thu Sep 05, 2024 1:25 am - I vote Madge.
- Madge declares me scum for voting her.
- Thea asks me if my read changed on Madge.
- I show why it hasn't, and he agrees that it is a good point.

TURNING BOUT

- Madge responds to Thea with AtE.
- Gluelock votes Madge AtE after slanking himself.
- Madge does not vote nor declare Gluelock scum for voting her.
- Thea accuses me of a disengenous solve.

- Thea states Madge townslipped.
- Thea explains Madge might be a Town Role.

If your solve is because you are expecting Madge to have organized thoughts and to act in a consistent manner, you’re barking at the wrong squirrel. Madge isn’t consistent even throughout a game Day as either alignment.

bessie wrote: ↑Thu Sep 05, 2024 1:50 am Fred you need to stop thinking about the game mechanics and concentrate on scum hunting. This is a basic game. -1

While I agree with your point about mechanics, how certain are you of that?

I’m a setup deducing god. How dare you doubt my powers.

heuristically_alone wrote: ↑Fri Sep 06, 2024 1:01 am There's text from Bessie that feels from her just for me. I tend to town read Bessie immediately, so feels like expecting/wanting me to town read her this game. Though now that I think about it, town Bessie would want that too.

Oh heury, you’re such a silly ENFP. You do not at all understand the mind of the INTJ. I want you to read me for my content. I don’t need to make an emotional appeal, like telling you how much you remind me of my musician husband. He’s an ultra-talented, handsome, lovable ENFP too. <3

heuristically_alone wrote: ↑Fri Sep 06, 2024 1:01 am Thea at least twice has emphasized how we should expect their tone to be different as this account that other account, thus insistent that we don't scum them based off of being different that perceived town meta.

You posted this twice. Do you have opinions on it?

Makhaira wrote: ↑Fri Sep 06, 2024 1:42 am Freddino18 - slot seems to genuinely not give a fuck about anyone else's perception of his slot which skews town for me, also his posts make me laugh

What about Fred’s slot seeming to genuinely not give a fuck about posting that reads list he’s been making excuses not to post for like two days?

Makhaira wrote: ↑Fri Sep 06, 2024 1:42 am Bessie - even harder slot for me to read. I think I've only seen scum!bessie once and I still feel like I didn't learn anything about her scum meta. Truest neutral read in the game for me. I generally have to just rely on her voting patterns to read her, her prose is so static its inscrutable to me

Makhaira wrote: ↑Fri Sep 06, 2024 1:46 am I have no idea why glue is so aggro for me its kind of funny it almost makes me feel like we have historical beef but I can't actually recall us ever getting into it before

Perhaps he genuinely believes you are scum?

Human: EGW, Madge, Mak, Alli, Fred, Bessie

Lean Human: somi

Null: JC, Moody

Lean Dancer: Wam, Glue, Heury

I'm not willing to vote JC, but I'll vote any in my bottom three. It's unordered btw.

seven what do you think is heurys scummiest single post

Ok I’ve been working on the daily bark since I walked in the door two hours ago and I really need to cook dinner and feed Hoku. I'll think about today’s content while I'm feeding my boys and update my list in a bit. Current thoughts I’m disappointed in JC’s content, still don’t like Fred, heury probably moving down on my list, and need to think about Gluelock his reads list wasn’t exactly a work of art.

Yes, exactly that. Since, he wasn't really doing much.

I feel like doing that would essentially confirm himself as scum if he just lurked off. Plus there are others trying to move the wagon off of him, so he probably was aware one of his mates might try to help his situation.

Madge I go back and forth on. I've played with third party scum Madge though. That's really the only frame of reference I have in terms of scum game. I just know that she is not interested in D1.

Wam for me is still the reads, and him trying to give me a scumlean with points that weren't believable.

somitomi wrote: ↑Wed Sep 04, 2024 8:02 pm I don't think lurking is particularly alignment indicative for Heury. I've seen him vanish strategically (with stellar results mind you), but I also recall him just dipping for a bit and this doesn't strike me as the former.

I only wish it was ever strategic

Yes you do

Wam wrote: ↑Wed Sep 04, 2024 9:24 am As before I associate lurking huery with scum huery.

100% agree. Though this game I haven't even been lurking.

Readsssssssss

Human
EGW
Somi
Heury
Madge
Freddino

Human or Dancer
Makhaira
Wam
Gluelock
Seven
moody
JC

Dancer (yes I'm making it about me me me)
Bessie- buddying me quite a bit this game, moreso than I recall before.
Thea- fundamentally disagree with read on me

When is deadline?

It gave me the impression that he was indeed lurking. I'm not that confident about it though.

Remember this. He was writing his thoughts for Wam, but hesitated, and decided to finish the rest of his thoughts for the rest of the cast. Why did he hesitate here?

I see how you can see it that way, I had this up in a separate window and was writing my thoughts on people I they came up in thread. Remember Seven and Madge were excluded entirely too.

But I get it, this clue from your perspective is the most substantive thing you have against me.

I'm not sure about the shroop tell. There's other reasons Glue may have stopped typing there.

I don't understand what the former has to do with the latter.

Me and Madge missing are explainable through copy-paste error. Do you recall what led you to having the missing half of the sentence on Wam?

Didn't already have a read on him (my big reads post had him as insufficient data), he's since put up enough to where I figured I could make some judgement, and he's laconic so that post only took me ~20 minutes to compose.

I was going to ask this same question, because one doesn't have anything to do with the other.
