Super summed up why I don't like Pot this game with post #s.
#84 - Giant wall of just agreeing with people or making small comments, jumps on Soup's dislike for Xast. Sidenote also jumps on Kary's reasoning in 534
I disagree that this is what my walls consisted of. They were full of content and me making hard stances.
#139 + 143 looked liked distancing, like he's attacking Xast but doesn't want to push Xast.
My scumread wasn't super strong early. What's the difference between attacking and pushing? Of course I didn't want someone to shoot Xast so early in the game. The point when I became fine with Xastrn dying is the post where I clearly said "I am fine with Xastrn dying."
#153 - IIRC Xast stated his scum read on Ryu with reasoning yet Pot just ignores it as forced without explaining why.
No, it was the reasoning that was the forced part. The reason I saw the read as forced is because his reasoning was bad.
172 - Pot kind of just dropped his pressure against Xast with a simple "I don't buy it.", if it was legit pressure and suspicion I would expect something out of Pot
I didn't drop any pressure. Xastrn said something I didn't buy, so I said "I don't buy it." What's so hard to understand?
#335 - Goes back to Xast. You see a pattern here where it's a lot of focus on Xast?
I never went away from Xast, so I don't see how I'm "going back" to them. I continuously had problems with their posts. I may have started tunneling, but that is not a scumtell.
----------This continues for all the rest of his posts, funny enough he never shoots Xast or asks for a claim, instead just goes on when he is fine with Xast dying and has enough of the slot
I was paired up with Sokr, I couldn't have shot him and was in no position to force him to claim for no reason. What are you talking about?
#525 calls Soup one of his strongest town reads yet the only other time he made a read on soup as fall as I could find is when he was "ok" with Soup in #84
I did mention in thread that soup is town, and told Sokr that he was a solid townread. Sure, I never said he was my strongest read, but my opinion that he was town was definitely out there.
#534 blaming Zen for Soup's death looks grimy to me, he completely ignored the fact that Soup was being an idiot in that situation.
I didn't ignore that, but I was mad at Zen for separating and for being someone who apparently knows soup so well and didn't pick up on the huge soup towntells. Soup never rages like that as scum. I don't see how being an idiot = being scum, and can't believe the majority of the game saw it differently.
#539 doesn't even make sense as reasoning to why he would say Xast/Zen team in #517, it explains #534, but that does nothign to justify a scum team read on Zen.
I said the Xast/Zen team thing
without reasoning. Doesn't mean I didn't have any. I was all in my conversation with Sokr, and I have posted it in thread now.
#547 is wrong since Zen separating makes sense when he had a scum read on Soup based off meta.
Separating basically made the Day end really early. Scumread or not, that separation was the same as taking a quick shot off-the-hip, since Zen knew that as soon as he separated soup would be dead. His reasoning that he didn't want townies to waste their weapons is dumb. Raz had already tried to attack soup and his weapon was not wasted, so Zen really had no reason to separate so early. He could have let people talk things out as
no one was in danger.
Finally, after all this time, no shot on Xast, despite him being so confident on Xast scum Pot hasn't taken a shot or even threatened the claim, something which I would expect from any townie.
I
just got separated from Sokr, putting me in an Active position. I have been a Support since my third post in this game. I feel like there's still things to discuss and I don't think a quick shot is a good idea. Why the hell should I be quick shooting Xastrn?
I'm guessing it's distancing. Also, despite posting a lot, it's mostly focused on Xastrn, outside of that the only things he has read wise are town Kary, town Sokr, and Zen scum with Xast,
I admit I have tunneled a lot. You said yourself this isn't a scum tell on its own. Even so, I have been focusing on a lot of other slots lately. I have asked questions of a bunch of people, made a case on Kary, laid points out as to why I don't like Zen. Frankly, you are wrong.
it's a really uncommitted approach that's sure not to step on feet. Not even gonna bother with his posts past 547 because it's still just Xast this, Xast that.
Maybe you should try, because my recent posts haven't even been about Xast. You need to stop skimming and start playing.
#950 - I'm really surprised Pot doesn't ask Sokr any questions or put pressure on the slot when it looks like the point he brings up would directly coincide with creating a scum lean.
Don't know what you're talking about here. You want me to pressure Sokr when I have a solid townread on him?
#965- first time I see him really commit to pressuring another slot this game (Zen), let's see what he does with this.
-----------Not sure if I agree with the followup reasoning, or if the reasoning is even sound. Overall looks like a bad push.
I think you missed my Kary case. I think you also missed the part where I said my Zen read wasn't very strong and was hinged mostly to a connection to Xast.
This case is really bad.
