S-FM 209: Surreptitious: The Game of Spies

[secondpassing]

Heavily cut things out in this post for readability. (Kovath/Calix/Never Unlucky's wall post wars)

No, I made the point that NU has been posting a lot and commenting a lot, for instance his many posts commenting line-by-line on other posts, and that is why his approach stands out for me, especially in regards to other games. And no, I'm not being hypocritical because I am legitimately busy and my relative lack of contribution is related to that, unlike NU who is posting in high volume but not driving points forward.

I've seen a number of people who are townreading him for being reasoned and active and "driving the game forward", I can see the first two but definitely not the last one. It's a simple strategy to establish himself as town in the group (esp with the stupid activity = town idea), it's something I've seen others like Cryptonic do time and time again (ex. line by line responses, I think?).

Kovath's case on Never Unlucky which I have no found answered. "Answered" yes. Refuted? No. You cannot refute unconscious behavior. I do not feel Never Unlucky is helping the team.

You're not pushing reads, scumteams, etc. like you did in IC for example. Definitely get the sense that something is different.

Your line-by-lines wasn't the point, it's what you're actually commenting with that strikes me as unusual. I do not get the impression that you are really trying to push a game-solving mindset with those big posts. I would have to do a big ISO to be more specific but I don't have the time.

Because I was the neutral, I was busy, and ok.

It's day 1, pushing for scumteams is useless. Just read KC's posts about the Duck/Calix/NU scum-team, it's based on nothing.

I’m unsure what gives you this impression.

I like that you’re trying to scum-hunt me, albeit in a hypocritical way. Some of your points are also caricatures of my posts, and they give me a strong feeling that you’re trying to paint me as scum.
I dislike that you town-read RLVG « because he is pushing Duck », it’s NAI. It’s as easy to do this for scum to deflect off of a pressured scum.

Sounds dodgy. I've cut out a lot of emotional posts here actually, but the emotional posts have no direction. If the emotions have no direction, where is he directing his scum hunting feelings? Highly recommend people re-read this post in its context.

Also sounds guilty.

I have to leave now, hopefully I should be back before EoD.

Is not here. Broke a hope. It means something, but I can't put a handle on it.

HO HO! Looking at my prodding from the scum angle rather than the town angle like you told me to do in the BG, saying that my prodding is very simplistic when it is NOT the case, claiming that my "don't take a vacation, give reads instead" comment on RLVG was opportunistic when it was just an original way of asking for his reads without directly pinging him.

Sounds like he's guilty.
