Okay? Why?

*confused look of bewilderment*

Explain your thoughts so I can read you because clearly something is weird. Lol

Skit - anything to 3977? I feel like yours is a pressure vote and I’m being told to dance, but I don’t know the tune.

In post 3977, teacher wrote:Skit I’m traveling and vLa but reading up. Happy to discuss anything. My vote was ari because I am pretty confident on my reads of math and RCE, and I’m slight town on RC though my team (ofrhz) wants that lynch.

I’d like to see things out o shos/saudade now that those slots have replaced, or xtomx since they’ve taken the game basically off. I’m disappointed that in 160 pages I don’t really have more/strong scum elands, it can’t really do anything about that. At least I feel my towns well and can work with them, even if I think there is probably a wolf in that pack too.

I feel like I’m currently the designated lylo lynch and don’t like that much, since it results in a loss, but also don’t really know how to change much since I don’t think much has changed.
ok a few things:
- how are you reading me ?
- i don't get why math/rce means you want to vote ari ??? do you have an independant read on ari?
- i'm a little scared that you don't have stronger scumreads rn
- how did you come to the conclusion that you're the designated lylo lynch ?

Clearly. How about instead of what seems to be trolling you read and do something?

It is taking a lot of restraint of me not to policy people here and if the past few posts are any indication y’all are adding to the post count without adding anything worthwhile.

You’re also seriously voting the likely person scum tried to night kill so doesn’t get more conf than me probs without mod flip soooo.....

If you’re not a TPR you’re scum since you claimed TPR.

And no playing outguess the mod.

There is no reason to mass claim yet.

Keep pants on.

That is the point yes. And I am not massclaiming, I am simply stating that it is very likely that at some point in the game my role is enough power that it is really obvious that it has to exist.

-on you, I believe there is a deep wolf (or two) in this game. I don’t think it’s math. I think there’s about equal chance of RC/RCE, which is why I’ve got the pending question to RCE. I think you could *possibly* be scum with RC, but are unlikely to be by yourself. In other words, I townread you, but with paranoia (less paranoia than on RC).

-math has been hard pushing Ari. RCE is pushing RC, but calling ari openwolf. That’s two of my townreads calling out a slot that has been difficult to lynch and that I don’t see putting out content.

- on stronger scumreads, I’m not the type to fake it. I feel good about my towns, but there are way too many slots just being allowed to skate by. If we get content out of shos/saudade/xtomx and Bella, I will start feeling stronger.

- because everyone’s blah on me but I’m being enough of a presbence to be discussed, but not really considered (yet)

Pedit: began this when skits post I am responding to was the most recent thing.

In post 3983, RadiantCowbells wrote:i'm also scared that you're like, underestimating the odds of Ari being scum but I think everyone else recognizes those odds enough for it to not really matter enough for me to want to do something about it
from my understanding:
ari hates playing scum, has a strong tendency to lurk, and isn't really capable of giving cogent thoughts on the game or gamestate

here he's: (besdies for that period with work) actively making himself available, engaging with people, his reads are evolving, he's capable of giving real-time-ish explanations for his thoguhts and stances down to minute-ish details

which i think he'd have a hard time doing if he's scum
he's also taken some strong positions that i think a) just hard for him to fake as scum b) are bad for him to take as scum (i.e. you/tw being tvt)

That’s not how any of this works....at all.

You can just as easily be covering with a scum buddy or TMIing.

See game where Titus bussed you for faking a guilty meta
And the person claiming info doesn’t always have to be the source.

So how about instead of talking mechanics we don’t know we get to reads?

Awesome.
