Hey...Juicy theory

RC+TW = SvS

I had reasons.
ScumBlade's eloquent performance left me utterly disoriented, debased, depraved and sent me spiraling into a horrific murky abyss with emotional turmoil and immense despair as my only companions until slowly I suffocate in my own gloom, surrounded by failure.

i told him i was withholding ankamius' read on him which artificially inflates the significance of the read

it's from ank which is ++significance but it's a gutread which is -significance

i wanted it to appear ImProtat.

I wasn't saying you were/would fake something. I was using the fake thing to indicate you know, the reads were kinda crazy. I also wasnt saying your reads were dictated, just like...ive felt this way before in a similar sitch with someone on your team. Like, I'm.happy to chalk this up to ' we don't communicate great' but for you that means I'm in your scum pool. *Le shrug*

@skitter, sorry!

Like ok

You can say that

Like I believe that you are good enough as scum to make some sort of somewhat reasonable narrative for why you did this

But assuming I'm right and Ari flips scum you said weird shit about him, voted him, never talked about him, unvoted in a weird way, talked all game about how he was scummy without voting him in terms of read placements, then started a big fight with me when I tried to change the wagon to Aristophanes.

That's where I'm standing, here.

Funnily enough this is probably the best readslist I have ever seen you give.

if this was the team
i'd be banking on bussing Ari d1
then coasting thru without really needing to interact w RC all that much

so you should probably just lynch RC or I

it's not the team though

That I know you meant no offense but you’re in my scum pool.

Not unless RC is pulling from when we were scum together
He hated the game and wanted out fast and did this with me.

another way of saying, Duckling knows his associatives with Ari are unsalvageable and he's trying to take me down first and push an entirely new scumteam agenda tomorrow.
Also, look at all the correct scumreads he suddenly came up with when this started, Ico, Bella, etc. were all his scumreads. They're town. Suddenly they're his scumreads? Why? Either...

1) When I started pushing Ari, he had a sudden ~moment of clarity~ with regards to his reads and he should be thanking me
or
2) When I started pushing Ari, he realized he was in a bad spot and he needed to buy a ton of towncred by townreading people so that he could meaningfully stand a chance in a 1v1 with me.

sorry, i really haven't been taking people up on their offers to engage much yet - moving house + working a fair bit + not all that well irl so i can't like. be here when i'd like to to engage with people meaningfully.

i'm like... not totally sure how to approach reading you

i don't think i totally trust myself to read you correctly at face value (survivor legendary i think is probably a prime example of how paranoid i'm capable of getting about you for roughly no reason)

i think i'm kinda just waiting for things happen so i can reevaluate and try to make a call

eddie really strongly thinks you're very likely town though unless ~possibly~ scum with RC and i'm interested in having another read of you leaning into his reasoning + taking titus meta comment above into consideation

but yeah i haven't been very useful so far

Suddenly coming up with a bunch of correct townreads when you need towncred isn't natural.

And frankly I have associatives with Ico that look reasonably SvS if that's what you're actually looking for, as opposed to you just trying to pocket people.

Like Ico literally tried to argue that I wasn't a likely scum nightkill relative to some others. That's exactly the kind of thing that you see and go hmm this is a SvS motivated thing to push
