chemists push seems entirely normal to me and for early game thare is enough reason to make it what is suspicious is chemists memephase talk, atleast to me
Bringing something up but not elaborating, not the behavior of someone who wants to further gamestate which town should be doing.
i bring something up that i elaborated on before - chemist's memephase talk. i think not bringing up what i mean would actually further the gamestate even more, as the question would be "what do you mean"? im just defending chemist against the point of his push being bad here and it being the reason that he is scum.

stated my initial reasoning but now i changed my mind page 1 heli and chemsit interactions feel like they are both scum mirroring eachother and trying to pocket other people from helis server. then heli gives up and votes chemist for distance its a bit far fetched but very likely.imo

content is nai
Fencesitting. Generally, stating something like this without saying what you think of it means you want to push a read in one direction without stating an opinion. Bad because scum want to avoid holding opinions as much as they can.
locktowning someone just because they are producing content is not a good idea, so im notifying dota here that scum can also produce good content as much as town can i dont see how clearly saying "content is nai" to combat the locktown is fencesitting

yep. i agree
one of chemist/heli/jord is scum
i'm betting it's heli
more like chemist/jord
why do you townread heli?
i don't like her d1 attitude, and even if that's a part of the personality, which i respect, heli should just knock it off
17D similarity
he is being very blunt
he seems to always be blunt tho???
more fencesitting for the same reason as above.
and again its not fencesitting for the similar reason as above. flake is townreading heli for a weak reason that isnt even ai, so im pointing the fact that they are always blunt regardless of allignment to them

@Debil what was wrong about the qva and Heli defenses
cant put my finger on it thats why i said mostly gut
Reads dont contain anything specific besides gut, therefore making for empty reads. Not inherently scummy, but the main reasons for doing this is either playing scum badly or being lazy.
well yeah my reads arent gonna be great because i read the game only one time this is why i gave myself the job to iso dive so i can get stronger reads

then try to genuinely tell me that i ever flip wolf
also if you think i am ever wolf with qva you are stupid
havent read it but ill assume you say its different you act like you couldnt change your game.if you were scum you are good enough for that
and yes dota is town from the vc i can agree with this now all of the votes on him are pretty unnoticable but they are piling up. only 3 votes but i dont think pure at all
The rest is alright but the second part is bad. It's more of the fencesitty type behavior but with extra. "I dont think the wagon is pure" with no followup on who he means and no pushing of it is fencesitting.
i dont think something is fencesitting when im showing a clear distaste for something, clearly townreading dota there and saying the wagon on him is bad and most likely has scum, if not multiple on it, pointing toward chemist/heli who i have stated as my scumreads earlier

TheDebil wrote:qva/dota is TvS
I really dont like this without any explanation, because again it allows setting up pushes without being attached to them. Town shouldn't mind holding hard opinions, scum should.
my post here is pointing out that qva and dota couldnt be scum together, probably should have explained this better. i improve later on. i dislike both so i cant put them at tvt.
xUltiix wrote:A lot of posts are made, but not a whole lot of game furthering content and zero pushing to be found. A lot of it is also seeming game content that isn't actually furthering because it isn't backed. A lot of fencesitty behavior and avoiding being attached to opinions or pushing. Very passive. As well as these, I get a bad gut vibe from the posts and feel like he's playing from a scum perspective. While some fencesitting and bringing up irrelevant things is okay, it feels like it's a majority of debils' play here.
i can agree i havent done much yet, mainly because im waiting the game to simmer down a little so i can do more detailed reads without falling behind on whats going down at the moment,because i take a long ass time to do anything that takes effort. a lot of the posts of mine you quoted you call fencesitty are my clear opinions misunderstood or not expanded upon further,but i will admit some of them are not fully explained because im being lazy and assume people can understand what im talking about/want them to look into something for themselves with the bolded thing, what do you mean?
^ you can see how long i take, my laptop only took like 5 minutes to get ready. im trying to avoid making any long ass reads for now because it takes a long time for me to make a proper read, i just look at current ongoing things and try to poke any discrepancies i find
if you look at 18b i dont think i had any properly fleshed out reads except my scumread on heli d1 which was mostly based on meta and it was wrong in the first place
and if you look at switch fm (i forgot the number, the one overkill hosted) you can see how long i took there to even catch up with the game and form my reads

When you say "worked in favor of dota getting townread", do you mean by you, or town as a whole?
interesting debil read, i liked debil's defense too
what do you think of these three debil posts which i consider townie?

Debil - I think he would react differently to qva's accidental accusation if he was scum. the posts seem genuine and overall town motivated, it actually feels like he's trying to solve. Question: you said the wagon on me (which was 3 votes) isn't pure. Put the 3 voters in order from town to scum and explain
I have't attempted to read debil yet, though I notice he's generally being townread. Could you quote some of his posts that you think are townie?

isnt that pretty much everyones who sr dota reasoning how is chemist any different for you
dota2reporter wrote:@Flake i see the logic in your Wabbit + Grumpy scumteam, but why would mafia miss a mafia buddy in their readslist?
Subconscious. "I know that X is Mafia, so there's no point in including them in my reads, since I wouldn't need to be reading what I already know". This is why my idea hinges on Wabbit and Goomba having been the most active in Mafia chat at the time; assuming Goomba and Wabbit are Mafia, the biggest reason Goomba would have to exclude Wabbit but not the other Mafia buddies is if Wabbit was the Mafia member on their mind the most. It is essentially a slip which can be easily be covered up if it were to be discovered; it has happened before in one of my games in VFM37 I believe, but no one picked up on it there.
it's just that me being close to goomba in experience level i feel like goomba would try to post reads of their scum buddies (i'd do the same thing)
Qvapil wrote:Oh I misunderstood I though he said neither town nor scum would do anything.
what's your new conclusion then?
That chuckles read my iso with confirmation bias. Besides if I were scum I could push you for better reasons than the fact that you didn't say "im not scum". I don't think what I did is AI
Correct me if I'm interpreting this incorrectly but what qva is trying to justify here is that he believes anything he says should basically be taken with a grain of salt because his actions were NAI. He's also justifying here that if he was playing as scum, he would push dota harder to look like scum which I find justifiable. Weak town read so far.
i'm the complete opposite, hiddenly asking people to take your posts with a grain of salt is scummy
dota2reporter wrote:@Debil but fwog isn't using the cornered attitude anymore (i think)
maybe idk i still dont like his reads very much tho
what don't you like about them?
the reads feel fabricated to me from a townie truly trying to get out effort i would expect something like goombas or the classic phone reads but these felt very weak to me
