Announcement: Updated Policy on Replacements

Knowing other specs’ reads are not spoiled IMO.
It’s a matter of perspective, and I simply say that the first sub in that scenario is unspoiled, since the other specs are clueless about the setup as well.

But you spent x time in a chat filled with ICs, how does that not influence you?

But hey, who cares, am I right?
It’s already been decided that it’s a bad choice anyways.

it’s a source of free guaranteed tmi-less reads

it partially compromised sfol 58

it can never come back

They are not ICs. They are bystanders.

The same way nothing influences me whenever I sub in for someone else.

Which I never read, nor believe to influence the game.

Never read the game.

Your point being?

They are ICs, because they cannot be scum. Their reads are genuine (unless someone is trolling I guess)

I’m glad this seems to be a pretty productive conversation from both sides

@Zone_Q11 unauthorized hydra’ing isn’t allowed for the same reason this wouldn’t be - it brings undue outside influence on your thoughts

That being said if we wanna unban unauthorized hydras I have some friends I can call

they are IC’s mate
the one definitive factor separating town from non-town is either TMI (groupscum) or self-focused paranoia (NE, Lost Wolf, or NK)
uninformed spec chat ppl have none of that
hence, they are mechanically equivalent to IC’s.

Sigh FFS, why the hell do you guys keep quoting me? I respond to every quotes.

It ain’t as if I am pushing my idea -which I acknowledge to have been viewed as something bad by the majority- anyways.

Just ignore me already! Damn you @anon97870008 for tagging me! Damn me from 3 minutes ago to have answered your quote!

In some spec chats the specs had so good reads that they literally solved the game, while town was clueless

That’s actually not uncommon

Mainly because the scum can only work with people in the thread

Anybody not in the game isn’t worth a second of your time as scum and so it’s not rare at all for the scum to hoodwink the people they can interact with while those outside aren’t fooled because they aren’t actually there

Every time a spectator chat is privated, I know people will think others have been talking about them as well.
We need to stop privating spectator chats tbh.

I think that’s very fair

Scumchats having the option makes sense but specchat isn’t the place for anything you wouldn’t feel comfortable being public
