you + rc are exhausting to read rn ngl
i don't have super many thoughts but i think that you trying to work with rc/his reads is probably +town for you
i don't think i can give a good read on rc rn

i agree with him that voting ari is not going to accomplish super much rn

i think i want to go here
VOTE: bella
I am considering Ari is a tmi scumread from RC and Bella is a TMI townread. It’s a minor thing but if voting Ari is so useless he wouldn’t be scared/not do it but he is. And he doesn’t vote. He just posts.

I dare RC to prove my theory wrote and vote Ari or push a different scumread. He’s so good he should be able to do it and show me where I am wrong.

1) I don’t remember but as demonstrated I am old
2) You claim impossible shit all the time. If you thought you’d get an and advantage you claim impossible shit.
3) You lie to serve whatever purpose you desire as town or scum.

To quote a popular novel “Quite frankly RC I don’t give a damn”

like i see that at certain points you were honestly trying to reach out to me (not necessarily as town but) and i didn't miss that but I don't, like, have the ability to play the way u want me to

i'm bad if i do anything besides play by instinct.

after rereading your scum as well as your town games I'm not sure this fits into your scum meta either really @TW
would be interested in hearing if you've changed your mind about skitter & reads in general

current thinking is that all of the people getting townread by any significant # of people {RC, Math, TW, Skitter30, Teacher, RCE} are town and that scum are all in the remainder.
decided to 180 on TW because honestly I don't think this is how he engages with the Skitter situation as scum, does scum him really try to keep open a Skitter mislynch, and w/e
I also personally think Bella is town but my reasoning for that is not strong enough to put her in that list at this time + I want to give a list that has no divisive inclusions

my original assessment of his slot was that the pathological disrespect for my reads was similar to Jingle's mini newbie but this feels deeper and I don't think that scum!TW would simultaneously keep me out of the lynchpool and make an enemy of me in a way that would make me a lot more receptive to scumreading him.

MathBlade I'm trusting y'all on + I really need a townread who is actually engaging with me a la Shana in BP or I'm simply not going to function in this game.

Teacher's back off of Skitter hard hard townpinged me; it didn't feel like a scum back off at all, it felt like the kind of thing that town do that get scumread but that scum simply wouldn't do because they would know they'd get scumread for it, I think he would have softened it rather than just nah i'm outtie.

Skitter30 everything I've already said holds.

RCE just, like, idk. He's absolutely my personal error vector in this list and I'd be open to reconsidering him later but I don't have a reason to scumread him and I think I would if he were scum.

if I had to guess it's Ari/Tris+one of the low content slots.

Regardless I think that most of the game can generally agree to clear this list for today so that leaves

Aristophanes
Tris
Iconeum
Plum
Newguy
Xtoxm
Bellaphant

Of this list I'd also hard prefer not to lynch Bella but if it's literally the only lynch in this pool that I can get without strongarming the game I'll take it.
I think that likelihood of flipping scum is in about the order that I listed them in, so i would appreciate if like
i don't think town will enjoy this game if the towngroup remains in conflict whether there's scum or not in them and i'll trust you guys to lynch Math or RCE if they're scum later

idk i'm sure I can make this game lynch someone, and have them probably flip scum, but nah.

In post 428, RCEnigma wrote: Tris I'd mostly a meta tone read. The way she omgus voted Math is reminiscent of her townplay in Port Arthur when scum pushed for her mislynch early.
that is one of the games that contributes to my experiences of scum trying to mislynch me. although, as my interactions with math continued, it did seem to be possibly different here. as i think i said days ago i'll have to review that.

Cool cool cool

I ask because while your initial post about the party hat was innocuous, your responses to Math calling it out were a little less so. I could see it from a newbie or someone like Nancy Drew (sorry my compadre but it's apt and I know you understand) who is more likely to take things more emotionally or personally on a quick read. You seemed a lot more ruffled by Math than you needed to be.

VOTE: Tris

I think this a decent start to the game and have a few decent reads already, which is nice :)
I thought this was a townie approach, even if i didnt agree with it ^
I read it the opposite way, feels like an artificial way of making the decision about a tone read look logical and impartial.
I liked how he saw things about my behavior he thought might be scummy depending on how i am as a player, and so he interrogated me to figure out what the case was.

In post 482, Plum wrote: I don't know exactly what to make of skitter, like I mostly agree with her views on a lot of things and her reasoning is all quite *reasonable* but I don't know enough to say if that impression should give other than a null read on her right now
if that's all you get from skitter, then that means she's probably scum. I find that when she's town, she has a little extra that comes through. that said, i think i saw a bit of town early on, but i'm not sure. it will of course be more clear when i've seen her post more.

as i just said, he seems to actually be a bit different from those other times scum has scumread me. but, i'm really not sure what to make of his way of playing in general. he requires a review of his iso. of course this without being caught up.

I'm not doing this again. If you're scum I'm ripping the bandaid off,
if you're town I'm not letting you lead another game off a cliff.


And it's really rich for you to talk about my record reading you.
I really do not like the bolded. it's not like skitter was really leading town anywhere at that point.
