I disagree with this - I won't get into a huge amount of detail in case you want to hear more from nom but her playing as if her neighborhood is all town even if she suspects it's not doesn't really have a downside if she's wrong as far as I can tell, and I don't see why your 2nd point implies townreads rather than just frustration at having that attempt at playing that way ruined by GIF outing the neighborhood.
This is not the point. Not outing the neighborhood is always the optimal choice, so it's perfectly fair that nom, or anyone else, tries to protect it. The point is that, once you start scumreading one of them (volpe), it makes no sense to get angry about it being outed, because you should be thinking that it was immediately outed in the scum PT. That's what should be your primary concern, not that the hood has been outed in the main thread. But you may miss that out of frustration, and that's what my point 2 is for.

My point 2 is specifically saying that even outside of an emotional context, you putting "effort to make sure your hood isn't outed", to faithfully quote nom's 617, in protecting the hood is largely off tonally wise. That's why i am saying it was TMI - i would understand not outing your hood on purpose, but putting EFFORT on it? You must have been townreading your hoodmates if you say so. And she wasn't.

Do you know DEB? No? Then SHUT UP, and let me do my play.

Note: If DEB flips red gooey is 95% his partner. I'm shitting you NOT. Eventually, gooey's even going to BUS the shit out of DEB if they're scum together, so DO NOT FALL FOR IT.

Let's see what Mr shitpants has to say about it.
Lol ur so mad.

The very thing I did to protect the hood from being compromised was used as a scumread against me, if that's not effort I don't know what is.

Put your bullshit arguments and reread my iso. If you have nothing else drop the scumread because this is abysmal level dude

Ok here's the deal I think either Elems or Nomnom, or both, need to be scum for this game to make sense right now?

I'm putting DEB back on null to be fair.

read over his iso and maybe a few other low-post-count people's and let me know what you think
It looks like he chose a Beyonce-Loving gimmick but ditched it real quick.

Disappointed there wasn't a response to this. It's an important piece of data to understand something else that GiF posted.
Must've missed it.
Volpe is still hard town for me and that is unlikely to change sans a hard guilty.
Nom I was very confident but I'm not as much anymore. It should be kinda obvious though because y'all saw how I post when I bream with confidence. So I'm basically putting him on a watch mode.
Also I am not really dodging the game per se. Just super tired rl to invest my energy here atm and I have spring semester starting tomorrow.
I guess I should just put myself on V/LA for few days.
I'll still be reading though.
