dedoporno: @gogtrial, someone mentioned you've only been scum once before. Is that true (I know you were during the last roulette but I'm mostly interested in normal mafia games)?
my name is magike catte: To my mind the obvious purpose of the question was to identify which games gogtrial had been scum in.
To my mind that wasn't the obvious purpose. Because that wasn't what dedo asked. But maybe I am misunderstanding him instead of the other way round.
dedoporno: For someone who didn't think I was going after the statistics you keep bringing it up quite a lot.
And, if it didn't become clear why I asked (apparently not) - Trent based his Town-read of gogtrial based on how gogtrial plays as Town versus how he plays as scum. Someone mentioned that gogtrial was scum only once and if that was actually true it would have been a decent way to take a look at that one time (or better yet, have others who aren't as lazy or have good memory of it help in the process) and confirm Trent's explanation to some extent. If there was some sort of discrepancy (indeed a single time but behavior different to what was explained by Trent or more times with varying behavior) Trent would have had to answer for it. It was all (at first) about Trent and his committed stance re gogtrial.
Apparently I DID misunderstand you.
I kept discussing statsitics because I keep being asked why I asked. The point is: your question SEEMED to be aimed at statistics. I couldn't see a reason why you would ask such a question. So I asked why you asked. To which you replied: "I have a reason but I won't tell!" (paraphrased)
Until now.
So, why didn't you clearly state your reason right away when I asked? Why did you instead get all sensitive and feeling shaded? If it is such a simple reason, why make a secret out of it? And why did you ask for the NUMBER of games that he was scum instead of asking WHICH game(s) he was scum in?
Wanting to do meta-reads is fair enough. The way you asked and went about my question is weird and overly defensive.
So I ask again: why didn't you simply ask what you wanted to ask? And why didn't you just reply to my question instead of trying to construct a case out of it?
