I will say there seems to be a lot of scum hunters in this game which I am not used to, especially in newbie queue. I think this game will be a head scratcher
it's a zero in my name (for PM purposes etc)

I'm asking bc he comes across as trying hard to be town read. His lamisty posts earlier don't factor into your initial impressions?

so nah, I have nothing to share with you.
Are you saying he's not interested in knowing who you think is town? Or something else?
He said he was aware of me not understanding his townreads and refused to explain them. It's in . And judging by his interactions with Skitter I believe his is being difficult to me on purpose.

Uhhh... wtf don't you like about it?
Seems like an interaction for the sake of interacting. I don't really see much usefulness in knowing what Drixx thinks of players capability.

I guess I'm just a little bit puzzled that you're not interested in re-evaluating reads today - we're still in fairly early stages so I feel like there's a lot of time/room to re-evaluate as things develop. I thought you might be quick to lock in your reads because you might come from a site with faster phases so you try to have firm reads early, but that doesn't seem to be the case.
Really like the tone of this post. Was in bed last night, started to think that I had pocketed myself for her while analyzing her read on me. I've never really had experience looking at reads
on me
lol. I'm leaning town for this slot. Really want to hear more from Drixx/Eth0s in the coming days. (Feel better soon, Eth0s!)

Could you elaborate on this? I mean, an example where chosing and aligment and acting in specific way gives you a result.
Why did you want to moved the game from the state it was in?

I've read your iso from Newbie 1851 and the postgame comments. At risk of sounding like a coward, I don't really want to commit to a read on you. ;P In an ideal world, your slot would just resolve somehow before I have to make a decision.

Well, I feel like it was rather peculiar game. I'm also really curious what in it stops you from trying to meta read me?

I think the gameplay would be more intricate and involve more guesswork because the result from a night action is not as obvious as say a cops night action. And it’d be fun to play as scum

I’m interested in hearing what ruru has gleaned about my personality as a result of this

Nothing stopped me from trying. I did read your ISO from that game, after all.

Only thing that will move this game forward for me right now is having drixx, eth0s, and our last two inactive players post more.

Sorry for multipost... I'm hesitant to really pressure eth0s because he is sick and there is plenty of time in D1 for him to get better first. If people are interested in putting a few votes on Drixx to give him incentive to post, I would be for that.

p. edit - My inability to create a read on you that I am somewhat confident in is stopping me from committing to a read on you. I think I'm being rather clear??

There's some sarcasm there. Please don't take offense. IMO, to ignore the possibility of wifom is foolish. To go down the wifom rabbit hole is madness... Game ain't easy =/
Nah, you're fine.

It isn't your reads themselves that I'm having trouble with; more like how quickly and strongly you're forming them and the fact that you're resistant to re-evaluating them today.

And when you say all those pro-town things, it doesn't really feel natural, but more like you think it's the correct thing to say. You're overall coming off super LAMIST-y to me.

Also not sure what to think about the fact that you're being hesitant around reading Scioness Sajj, or that you're being kinda difficult with her but much more open with me.

I low-key wonder if I'm getting buddied by you.

I actually think this is a fairly interesting bit of info tbh. If someone believes someone to be a stronger player, they'll read them differently than if they think they're a weaker player; the perceived capability of a player often affects the read.

Again, it's still fairly early day1; I'm not too worried about people not contributing overly much yet. If he hasn't posted much in like a few days irl from now, I'd maybe be down for that.

I think at this point it might be more useful to vote for a scumread than as pressure for people to post; game's moving fairly well along given the size and given the fact that a few slots are relatively absent.

@oxy It's not I have no idea what you are trying to tell me.

You are confident in your null read on me but you won't commit to it becuae you are unable to create the read?

@scioness Sajj A null read is more like a lack of read. It's neutral.

@skitter30 It means I became worried that I had jumped to a town lean on you too quickly.
