I guess you weren't around for the game that nearly got ruined twice because of people exploiting sloppy PMs, or the game immediately after it where the GMs from the first game tried to break the game the same way as players.

^ that happened and I'm tired of it. There's a rule against sharing GM communications. The rule can't be internally consistent unless lies Annie GM communications are also illegal. Let's start enforcing.
Pres Eden understands my position on this: the GMs are doing us a favor and facilitating us to play a game. The scum team are doing us a favor and providing us a hunt. The rest of us get to play. And we get to play by the rules. The rules both explicit and implicit have always been that sharing my character name was acceptable and asking you a stupid question repeatedly until you were turned around was acceptable. I and others have now learned things from this. Maybe they've learned something about me.

Maybe we've all learned something about ourselves.

Hope you have a happy 2021.

If I was ever so inclined to make a New Years resolution, it would be to attend a diplomacy tournament. I’m caught up in last 4 pages and shifted a lot on the Ghug thing only to end up thinking it’s all NAI

I dislike this so much.

Why is aaro obv-scum with no mechanical information available? Either he said something really egregious or you're assuming that he is obv-scum until proven otherwise. I don't think he's said anything particularly bad, certainly nothing I would obv-scum him for. I think that assuming obv-scum until proven otherwise is a very bad mindset, not at all like town vecna last game, and begs the question why you're singling out aaro.

You have voiced a dislike of a single aaro post thus far saying that it felt forced and not sufficiently analytical. Are you obv-scumming him off that post alone? Please tell me what you're seeing here because I'm just not seeing it.

Lastly, I think your expectation that town aaro would be particularly analytical D1 is setting yourself up for disappointment. Aaro was widely townread last game because of his behavior D3 when he had more mechanical information to work with. For the first two days, when he was largely/only working off reads he did rather poorly imo.

Happy new year!!
Vecna could you explain your read on aaro like Celepth pointed out?
I don't see anything super scummy there, but the post by celepth was a lot based on one person for a d1 not even done I think.
I don't see anything there so aaro iso is a null, not anything that tips the scales.

So @celaph, dazzle me some more with your insightful commentary.
Best I can give you is some questions.

1) Why are you targeting me in particular?

2) Do you find insightful commentary to be alignment indicative?

3) Can you walk me through your thought process on your recent claim that your role pm had the name "Natalie Reese" in it?

I'm pretty sure Vecna was joking/reaction testing.

You might be right that I'm over reacting, but something doesn't feel right about it.

Sorry I forgot the third option which is Vecna is very likely drunk. However, it's possible they think I'm scum for some reason, but that reason will probably have to wait until they're around tomorrow (if there is one).

How do you think you should consider drunkenness in your evaluation of a comment? Does it make it more likely in your eyes to be reaction test?

I don’t really know. I was just providing it as the reason why something might feel off.

This made me laugh, "Piranhas" could have another meaning here....

Forgot to thank @Tom for providing an alphabetical list of players. All the best GMs should do this. I note he still calls this a 21 ‘man’ game. But I know he is trying.
