Bah. I thought those were apparent to everyone else. Ok, reasons forthcoming:
Playstyle: I'm irritatingly arrogant, and right almost enough to justify that. I tend not to repeat myself; if someone has asked for an explanation of something I've already explained I prefer to ignore them. When I find their posts illegible, logically flawed, or otherwise moronic, I find personally insulting my fellow scummers to be acceptable both as a valuable gauging tool and for my own perverse satisfaction. When I do explain myself, I'm highly logical and prone towards massive analyses when I have the time or am highly interested in the game. Endgames are exciting to me. Anything where I get a chance to rule things out definitely a la logic puzzles are exciting to me. When the game interests me, I'm likely to play town leader; otherwise, I'm likely to watch from the shadows, posting once a day or so with my general thoughts on the situation. I don't mind helping newbies, as long as they're quick to learn. Because it's hard for me to get a read on them, I'm reluctant to lynch a newbie. I tend to defend myself extremely vigorously.
Is it to be expected that scum would push a pro-town plan at the end of day 1 or day 2 instead? This is my first normal game so you have to enlighten me. Besides, I don’t see why scum can’t think outside of the box.
In my experience, scum never propose strong plans or weak plans, and very rarely do they propose medium plans. Scum generally play reactively. Of course, there are exceptions that prove the rule, so you shouldn't automatically clear anyone based on the fact that they've proposed a plan.
I feel it’s dangerous to label someone townie based on an assumption. Just because something is unlikely to happen, doesn’t mean it won’t. What if Phate was scum and he knew either the reopener or switcher were scum. The vanilla townie doesn’t get a power role so his plan fails. Phate would blame it on one of the many possible factors, shrug and say oh well, at least we tried. Meanwhile since he pushed a pro-town move, he’s viewed as townie and can coast through the rest of the game.
The obvious solution here is to not label me as confirmed town just because I proposed the plan. Of course, by the same token, my proposing the plan shouldn't be seen as scummy, either, with the only evidence being that if I were scum I'd know how to mess the plan up.
I am resistant to criticism. I'm not terribly cooperative, either. That's not a scumtell, that's my playstyle.
I think that's all of Zhao's pseudo-accusations.
Reasons for voting OTM:
I've been mentioning for some time now that I think he's been scummy, and why. Go read me in isolation and you'll find that. Post 273 only confirms his scumminess to me. I won't defend anyone else (not because I think any of his cases are anywhere at all close to valid - I don't - but because I'm interested in seeing those accused defend themselves), but automatically putting me at the top of his trusted list because I proposed the switching plan is not only bullshit but it feels like surreptious buddying up.
I will fuck up your name and gender. Deal with it.
PM me to replace into Infection Mafia, a semi-open Mini Theme.
