Oh well.

I mean, he was asking bs to claim for quite some time by now. And bs clearly doesn't want to. It's like, making scummate look bad in general. Whenever whatever Crying flips, people will still have in mind "oh right, he didn't claim"
I don't necessarily think that they're scum together. I think Crying and Ginger are aligned at minimum, from there it's probably somewhere in the buffer slots. On play I don't think this is the case but mechanically speaking I could see you being aligned with them too.

Polar/York/Charlie/Orca - would say plausibly two of these names can fit but it's hard to get them in there when all but Charlie have basically stopped playing. Orca would require some heavy bussing going on.

Bittersweet - on play I have no reason to think he's town, would require some bussing today from Crying and it's a bit clunky. If Scum Crying is convinced he's going over though it can make sense. Even if we still question the claim afterwards.

The rest I think are townie enough that I need to make assumptions somewhere.
 
Im starting to tinfoil a bit that TAG is aligned with crying lol. I think it’s getting past the point of believability now that he still thinks he’s town
We could potentially be aligned, yes. In fact, I think it's very likely we are, but even I can't know 100% if we're aligned until he flips.

I'm not going to go down the wifom route of "I would never do this as scum" because 1) you have no way of verifying any meta I provide, 2) it doesn't matter whether people can read me for future because my presence on this forum exists only so long as I am alive in this game, and 3) there is exists the possibility that you're scum and already know my alignment anyway

If you're town, you'll just have to use your noggin. Pushing my scum reads and defending my town reads is just how I play and nothing is going to change that.

Please just vote me at this point. At least reloaded has shots left
We at least have a chance of winning LYLO if I’m not the immediate designated ML
why are you doing this

if you're town you know you're town 100%, Reloaded can be 1 to 99%
I know I’m town

and I know I can’t win in LYLO
Look at today GB

this was my LYLO and i convinced no one and they’re voting out my top tr
They’re gonna push me out tmr for gg
I misread the player list

there’s 15 of us alive

with 5 possible scum it’s me and reloaded and then 5v6
And at the very least with a roleblocker around reloaded has a chance of stopping the kill
And truthfully, I’d rather die here knowing I gave it my all today than to have to endure another day, especially since I’m an easy ML atp and have no active ability left
It’s addition by subtraction I get it

I accept it atp
Hey Reloaded it looks like u get yet another dead thread to see u out
I really tried defending u and I’ll see u tmr in spec chat whether it’s via nk or policy vote
I’ll see you on the other side
This is what I mean by "phoney baloney bullshit". For context he's wailing about the merits of keeping Reloaded alive over himself but never takes any real action to drive it through. He keeps his vote on me when you think if he was sincere on this he would be voting himself and asking Ginger to go there too. And reloaded. He only gives a shallow appearance of it which leads me to my conclusion that it's designed this way for effect.

Ginger is also scum with him because look at how he immediately just engages with it in earnest. There is no consideration as to why he's really doing it or why he's not taking action to actually achieve it. He just believes him in earnest and tries to frame the discussion into going down the route of "this is genuine". After this there is absolutely no follow up from Ginger and coming into today he hasn't even mentioned it.

There was also an earlier post from Ginger I called out at the time where he sets an unreasonably high bar for Crying to be faking it by requiring Crying to be "an *extremely good* actor", emphasis mine. This serves to raise the bar required for people to agree that he is faking it - it's inherently manipulative. To demonstrate this, if someone is unsure, when they read this they'd ask themselves "Do I think Crying is an extremely good actor", to which they'd probably answer no which then leads to the idea that he can't then be faking it. Hence why it's manipulative.

And this wouldn't be so bad if Ginger could put into concrete terms why the bar was so high, but when he was asked for it, he couldn't talk about Crying specifically and could only reference general expectations. I'll quote the post later for transparency.

Also while I'm on the topic of Ginger, he's had defacto thread control since Day 1 and has delivered... how many scum? You're telling me he couldn't get any of his lynches over if he really wanted to?
 
Let's look at it from another perspective.

Let's say crying is scum. And for arguments sake, let's say ginger is scum defending him.

That means there are 1 or two more scum who have either been ignoring crying or bussing him all game expecting to look good off the lynch.

Given everyone's play in this game, who do you think those scum might be?

You ask me about Crying's acting, the one part I see about it is that he's breaking the barriers that scum usually has to not piss enough people + acting like he has no TMI by going at townies and saying scums are town.

Also, today's lim would be like between him, Reloaded and maybe Orca, he townreads both of them and says me + TAG scum team is more likely than one of them scum. So what's his survival plan, where do we go instead. He goes at Ratchet which has probably no chance of success. That's the way I see it.
Here's the post in question that I mentioned. Also I have to point out, he's trying to pass off someone defending scum and pushing town as... townie? Why?

There is also how Crying has had Ginger and I both in PoE. But he never once reconciles how we can both be scum, and never really tries to push Ginger whatsoever. Ginger never really comes down on him for this and indeed, even rewards him with a town read. It gives me the impression that Crying is very comfortable with putting Ginger into his scum reads, knowing he won't really be challenged on his read.

I suggest you read some of my previous posts where I discuss exactly this. The answer is I don't have a clear idea on who they would be. If I had a perfect solve I would be framing it as such. I can only operate with what I think and know.

But when I pointed out that Orca also had me\ginger in his PoE with no thought as to how we could be scum together you called me out on it.

So it's okay for Orca to do that, but not Crying?
Did I call you out on it? Also, do you think having you and Ginger together is equivalent to having Ginger/myself together? And also, did Orca treat you and Ginger differently, in the same way Crying has treated Ginger and I differently, in spite of having us in the same tier of PoE?

Maybe it was me\bitter that I commented on re: Orca... The three of us have always been PoE for him. I'll have to dig out the post when I'm home, I am useless on my phone.

My point is that these two things are not equivalent - Orca putting some names into a PoE is one thing, Crying putting our two names down and treating us the same on the surface while mechanically only focusing on one and not the other, and similarly, the other side being unreasonably charitable towards Crying and his motives, is what I'm calling out. I mean you must have read it, you quoted a line from within that post, so I don't understand why this is your takeaway. Mind helping me with that?
