I mean i dont have enough cares yet to blaze my own trail
A scumteam this game would have to be utter morons to be using their normal posting style in the mafia PT. So don't expect that to be useful. Other things are going to be more reliable indicators.In post 2133, Ser Arthur Dayne wrote:BUT who are the people that usually post in all smalls?

It's called people actually read my posts.

By now people have probably figured out more or less what I was doing, but to put things in simplest terms:
I'm not scumreading Accountant, because Accountant's response to me, from what I know of Accountant's personality, read as town. I'm not scumreading Cephrir, because Cephrir's response to me--in spite of him not recognizing what I was doing (normally a red flag)--was otherwise town, because I still saw him legitimately trying to figure out what the hell I was pulling. I'm not scumreading you, because I thought your handling of it was also in line with you as town. Probably others I'm forgetting on here, but you get the idea.
I'm scumreading LLD,UT, RC, Ircher, and Zito inpart because of their response to me. Each for different reasons. And each for reasons beyond that (that's far from the only thing).
In other words, psychological profiling.
The people who are scumreading me are either the people who would do so as town because they're naive (see also, Accountant), or are people who are VERY incredibly likely to be scum. (LLD, UT, RC, Zito. Ircher's not scumreading me anymore, but his response was scum anyway. RC may or may not have scumread me, but regardless, he's painting me in a negative light, when no fucking duh, I'm mastina I had a plan.)
Theory talk disguised as game content, which was also wishy-washy, largely pointless, and inconsistent. Plus, for someone who is trying to say, "trying to get a lynch he believes to be easy to pull off", Ircher is going after...In post 2271, Spiffeh wrote:What in that post makes you think he's scum?
Do you think this kind of perspective is assisting the town in any manner? Y/NIn post 2362, Cephrir wrote:mastins gonna mastin.

Just remove from game, it would be nice. don't even care of her alignment.
I mean it's pretty telling that he goes onto this rant about universal scumtells being bullshit and then goes after me, supposedly for me going after him, which is an "easy to pull off wagon" in his own wordsIn post 2023, Ircher wrote:Also, since McMenno is so keen on lynching less-skilled players and players with a habit of getting lynched as town this game without giving even a shadow of a doubt:
The phrase "scummy != scum" means that just because a player may do things that can be viewed as coming from scum (aka scummy), it doesn't necessarily mean that they are scum.
All those scumtells on the wiki..... They probably work about 10% of the time at best. Why? 1) Scum will actively avoid commiting them because.... they're scumtells 2) Townies, who are less cautious generally, have a tendency of commiting some of them by mistake/without intending to do so/sub-consciously.
Scumtells ONLY WORK if the player in question consistently does them as scum but not as often as town. You have to look at the big picture WHICH INCLUDES the player'sbefore you start trying to paint a behavior as something only scum would do even when it's quite obvious that town can do it too.meta and playstyle
Sheeping isnota scumtell 9/10 times because 1) Town can do it 2) Town who townread a better player than themselves may decide that that player's reads are more likely to be accurate 3) Anyone will start sheeping if they become apathetic 4) It's not a behavior that even benefits scum a lot.

That said, my McMenno vote wasa sheep as I already explained givingNOTTHREEreasons for the vote, yet McMennofocused on onlyon those reasons and claimed my reasons were aONECOVER-UPbecause Iapparentlydidn't want to be called out for sheeping.
Some other things people should realize: "Correlation doesn't imply Causation"; just because my vote camesoon afterCephrir's votedoes not necessarily meanthat Cephrir's votecausedme to vote McMenno.
Maybe you didn't like my reasons for my Mc!enno; that's understandable as long as you show that you read them all. But, trying to press my vote as scummy even when 1) There's just as likely, if not moreso, chance that town COULD do something similar and 2) The number of assumptions to make for McMenno's account is more than the number of assumptions made for what I stated in terms of my vote (Occam's Razor) is beyond ridiculous;it's scum behavior.
And I swear, if there were a lyncher in this game, it would DEFINITELY be McMenno with a win condition to try to lynch me; this isn't the first post of McMenno's that is outrageous and ridiculous with the sole intent of getting me lynched WITHOUT proper evidence or even effort to prove such.
It's obvious to me this is scum McMenno trying to get a lynch he believes to be easy to pull off.
VOTE: McMenno
