But you keep making a point to say what he’s doing is odd
Because it was odd.

Not much else to say on it. You saw the entire back and forth, I don't know how there needs to be anything else clarified on that.

Aurelian does seem to be reacting similarly to how I did when caught out off what I considered to be an innocuous post very early in the GoT game, has the time come to test our might at last?

I thought how much he was focusing on Fang was off, but not as bad as how much Fang is defending himself.
Also weird, you accuse RDK of trying to deflect attention from himself when I'm having my exchange with him. And the exchange is solely about me mentioning being late, in a game which JUST STARTED, with next to no fluff or build up yet other then the obligatory SoP from everyone, regardless of having played with each others. Then you pivot on this much later on after I finish my shtick with them to say I'm being "bad" defending myself when I hardly did any defense.

You seem way too eager to hope on a potential lynch wagon at someone to hide.

For what it's worth I detect no whiff of betrayal from Evans statements, seems to be stout of heart and ready for battle. Clarity of knowledge is important.

Oh for a worthy foe to test our strength.
I will lay down my life to protect this slot

Why would get so defensive over a minor detail that RDK pointed out? Just saying you arrived late because of your time zone is normal.

Love the name btw, was considering naming the cat I'm gonna get this year Aurelian but I don't want people thinking I'm a cringe 1984-obsessed weirdo!

But this is the point against you mate
That is the point against me in your perspective, not mine. I didn't mention anything like you pushing a vote like me, like you suggested earlier as if I was being paranoid about that possibility. No one else even picked up on that or ran with that other then you and just you.

I never got defensive over it. I'm more curious why you keep changing your vote focus.

I understand what you said about Lethal and admit you are definitely more than qualified to make a read there. But it's what happened afterwards that pinged me. You want to soft town lean Lethal for seemingly not being fearful, that's fine. But shortly after you gave a couple of lengthier explanations around that read, which felt like you were trying to do more than just throw out a soft town read. Then, later on, you claim you just wanted to get the ball rolling. That's fine by me as that's what I do as well, but I think you could probably agree that there are better ways to get the ball rolling than giving someone a soft town lean, yeah? Sure it got a couple of reactions, but I think the reactions came and THEN you said you were doing what you did to get the game rolling.
The lengthier explanations were in response to others though. And yes there are better ways, but there was no scum read I could make at that point and if I faked one there’s just no way it would have been believable so I instead opted for a read that I did feel comfortable making, especially as I was pretty sure it would be something that would draw reactions from others. After that I kinda came to the conclusion that I’d talked about lethal way too much, much more than the read merited lmao. That’s why I stopped by saying I did it to get the ball rolling. That said, ofc that’s the order of events… I’m not well gonna say I did it to get the ball rolling BEFORE the reactions am I?

Objectively, what has he contributed besides trying to mire what you considered a free town read? It's frankly more confusing that I have to convince you. Unassertive, "Look at this cute little contradiction" posts tend to fit the profile more of unconfident scum. He's not a dead ringer, but only for the same reason there isn't any compelling defense for him - there isn't very much there otherwise.
Does Evans strike you as the type to be unconfident as Scum? Given how others more familiar with him have expressed respect for his Scum game, I expect the opposite.

No the point I’m trying to get at here is that your responses suggested you were trying to paint his actions as scummy but when I outright asked if you thought he was scummy for it, you said no. It seemed like weakness to me. You were willing to paint his actions as odd to try and diffuse pressure coming your way, but you obviously weren’t willing to commit to any kind of negative read on him.

Because your attention to that minor detail has more focus in it than RDK's.
That isn't logical.

You've painted a bullseye on your back because your SoP is dictating right now you are operating like an opportunist. Which is by its nature, a fairly scummy behavioral trait to have brought out.

- I make my second post in the game
- RDK asks why I would announce my tardiness
- We have our little back and forth
- Poyser makes weird side comments
- You snipe at RDK saying he was deflecting attention from himself

Which is very ODD given there wasn't much scum or vote focus on lynching RDK to begin with before you pivot and switch around to say I'm somehow being extra defensive when I'm not, but for whatever reason or lack thereof, immediately switch on me.

What do you have for scum reads?
