I was bullied into staying. Still gonna rest up a little bit.

Curious why Sausa comments on my retraction but not my original townread and why Yimmy voted LoserdudeOG over ETL.

I have to catch up on everything so far, but can someone clue me in on this weirdness between ETL and Radiant?

I think you should read it rather than be fed a secondhand account of it. The game is only 17 pages.

@RadiantCowbells, what did you expect me to say? “I’m glad RadiantCowbells made the right decision picking me as town”? I’m not going to question why you townread me if I’m town. I’m curious what made you change your mind.

The current towncore I have is:

EspTheLies is experienced as many have pointed out, but they were one really high advocator that I was scum. Now, I'm pretty sure that they were someone who suggested that we not lynch me just yet, even if I flip scum, as there wouldn't be enough Info for the 2nd scum.
PyroDerma: All in all, has a pretty sound ISO (although I did take problem to it), and really rounded as a Pro-Town player.
Myself: LAMIST
Especially is a shoe in definitely and I think they know it too :P

Pyro I’m fine with, but I’d like to see who else he thinks is scum other than myself.

What about the rest? Who’s scummier than who?
You're my top scumread, and Jocus is my close second. MoonChild, then Thesaurus Rex.

Well I think Jocus is town and you haven't responded at all to anything that happened over the last few pages besides to reiterate reads you already held before them. Did nothing either me or ETL or LDog say change your reads on anything?

I've caught up with all emotional involvement in the game removed and I still think that the correct play is to lynch ETL.
I understand that others are townreading her, largely for her presence as opposed to anything town indicative, but I also think it's pretty common in newbie games for one scum to be heavily TR.

I also think that it would remove a lot of potential agony for all participants in the thread and in spite of ~things~ I am not willing to drop my scumread on her and I think that should say a lot.

If you think Jocus is town then you must also believe that I am scum. Why else would they be voting me?
Also, why don't you post all of your thoughts into one post instead of making 10 pages of messages a day?

Just experientially all the posts she has made thus far this game are ones that reasonably competent scum make a lot and that turnaround on me for us being 'unable to work together' when I have gone so much farther than I had to in terms of reaching out to her... I assign her a higher level of burden of proficiency than to scumread me here when I've given her so much more than I would have had to.
If you think Jocus is town then you must also believe that I am scum. Why else would they be voting me?

This is an extremely silly post; I don't think that your alignment and Jocus's are correlated. I don't think you're so good as town that you can't townread scum. I don't think you're so good as town that you can't scumread town. And I post dozens of posts a day in this specific game because no one else is posting and I want to give the quieter people a lot to respond to.

Not that I don't generally post at an above average rate but I'm definitely ramping up my post rate to try to counterbalance the fact that this game is on page 17 and it's almost EOD1.

We're in a thunderdome right now. Either I or Jocus is scum. And Jocus hasn't acted as a town would, only tunneling one person without reading others, even when others tell them to read others.

I don't have any evidence that you're competent enough that your thunderdomes are guaranteed to be TvS.
I have a ton of evidence that my D1 reads are good enough that if I'm townreading both of you you're probably both town and if I'm scumreading ETL she's probably scum.

If you think you're so good that your thunderdome's are by definition TvS I welcome you to provide me the site that you come from so I can verify that claim for myself.

Otherwise, I'm going to vote for the person that I think is scum and not the person that I think has played in a towny manner.

My gimmick as a player is that in my last large theme game on
day one
I had 5 scumreads and 4 out of 5 of them contained all the scum in the game.
I'm not going to derail that trust in my own competency to scumread someone because you're saying they're scum unless you provide serious evidence that your reads deserve such consideration.

I'm not trying to burden of proficiency myself either here because I shy away from arguing based on my competence in newbie games, but I am really failing to see how "I am tdoming this mofo" means I must abide by it.
