i don't like your readslist, i don't like that i'm not really seeing your thought process, but rather that you're just dumping everything into the thread all at once (i.e. like your readslist and your wallpost)

it's hard to follow, and there really isn't any in-thread progression to follow

it reminds me of scum!implosion
or early!scum!me

some scum, instead of interacting consistently, just wallpost/dump their thoughts because it frees them from having to fake progression

and that's kinda what i'm wary of rn

(tw i know you're going to jump on me for this)

'Dumping everything into the thread all at once' was my whole intention.

I wasn't planning to be (basically) a non-entity for the first 40 pages of this game, but that's one of the reasons why I felt obligated to do that. That's just always the way I've approached substantial catchups like that. I assumed that people would want to know everything on my mind and I had a lot of thoughts that I wanted to share.

It wasn't intended to free me from 'progression'. Not at all. My reads are still in flux - and they will be for a little while. It felt good making that post because it freed me from 'being behind', if anything - I was fully caught up at that point and put everything on the table.

I feel like a lot of the suspicion against me in this game boils down to the way I approach the game. To me, I enjoy this game for the 'puzzle' of trying to figure out who is scum. Honestly even though I am supposed to 'play to win', oftentimes I focus more energy on figuring out who scum are then I do with actually interacting with scumreads and convincing people to work with me. Because that's not the part that keeps me coming back to this game.

I enjoy reading games from the outside just as much as I enjoy playing in them.

And I just posted my big reads list yesterday. I feel like it's a bit early to say that I'm done progressing my reads. I didn't do so much today because I needed a break, I spent a lot of time thinking about this game yesterday.

i know

the problem is that i can't tell if it's scum-indicative or playstyle-indicative

and i have an awful blindspot for this exact playstyle so i'm wary

oh i'm not saying that you're done progressing your reads

what i meant by that is more that i don't know how you got from ~beginning of game~ to ~readslist you posted~

like the progression between those two stages is what i haven't really seen

yea, I prefer spam ketchups from people for that reason. Speaking of, Im going to try to read back a bit now.

I actually liked Nib's Egix case.

I also liked Mena's impersonation of me. I dont like that your TL has gone away skit.

It feels weird that the duck wagon stalled, but theres no real momentum; like the entire gamestate hit a weird lull.

Im around for a bit.

I have me a problem. In this game, I have 4 TRs (and 1 town lean, so 5 people above the null line). However, I only trust skitter/Nibbui reads, and they're both not TRing each other. That's my problem here in a nushell. (Oh, and in case somebody should ask, my other 2 TRs are Melanque and Norweigian, and my town lean is on wicked).

And a "side" problem is I have no experience with Nor or wicked, which means I can never be as confident on them either. But still, Nor looks town to me and wicked is "almost" a town read.
