Since this was addressed to Casey, who is only scumreading you, this post seems to suggest that you are anxious and guarded. Also, if you are not scum, why do you consider Casey good at picking up on tells in other's behaviors. Shouldn't it be the opposite?

Correct. On the five-factor personality trait continuum (acronym O.C.E.A.N: Openness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness, Neuroticism) I score very high on disagreeableness (or very low on agreeableness), a subtrait of which is how likely you are to be guarded and suspicious toward others, very high on introversion (low on extraversion), and very high on neuroticism (sensitivity to anxiety), which were the main categories I was thinking about here.

I believe Casey, shelly and I are all similar in a specific combination in that we are about midrange conscientiousness (Casey's correction of medias vs medium for one example), very high in disagreeableness because we are competitive, and very high in openness which is why we all self-identified as behavioral players, prefer lifestyles related to the arts, value things that are aesthetic or creative etc. and I did not believe that aspect was at play in her scumread here (except in a helpful way in that Casey initially enjoyed my posts minus the statistical parts) so I thought there might be some conflict brewing regarding guardedness and anxiety. I also wonder if people who are disagreeable and introverted express it differently than people who are disagreeable and extraverted, due to a sub trait of extraversion called assertiveness, which I will be focusing on in response to #3.

#2
Not necessarily because being able to describe other's behavior and accurately identify deception are different things. I'm inclined to believe that humans aren't really able to identify deceptive behavior as much as they're able to recognize when the liar has made a mistake, or failing that when some kinds of behavior may be easier to conceal a lie, such as in this case a personality that appears anxious, introverted and guarded.

One example of why I believe she might be good at picking up on other's behaviors is that she very quickly said things like "N-E-E-E-R-D" if I recall correctly, and though I do not self-identify as a nerd, if she was referring to the concept of a personality that was anxious, introverted, and competitive+guarded, then she is accurate not only on a qualitative scale but on a quantifiable one as well (the five-factor model) and she didn't need to read much of my writing to determine that. This also is congruent with how she seems to view the world and other things she said like "the ones who aren't the cool kids get voted out", also to paraphrase.

My theory is that as she read more of my writing she was able to pick up on more subtle aspects of my personality which is what she began scum reading me for.

A more critical example is when she scum read me for the push on Lavar. I believe she was correctly assessing that I was motivated by anxiety on some level though not fully aware of it, and town read his assertiveness and posting lots of reads. I believe she also townread Redados for being assertive at some points in D1, and this trend is important for how I'm about to continue:

I think she thought that I viewed her as town because of the welcome post, and because I didn't assert that I town read her, she suspected I might have been attempting to conceal that I knew she was town because I'm mafia, when instead she was accurately identifying two behavioral tells I wasn't fully aware of (guardedness and my view on the MagikHorse/Casey slot) which was accurate on her part, however the conclusion of deceptive behavior was not. Another example of when she was bothered by my guardedness early on was in my response to Redados on D1, when I said "Hmm", which she viewed as killing the conversation and holding something back. Of course since Casey is also disagreeable, most of these behavioral tells she picks up on she is inclined to be suspicious of, especially ones that are most unlike herself.

This seems to me what Casey is screening for here in a nutshell, the anxiety and guardedness in other players, as she does not come off as dumb, fabricating her reads, or inexperienced, so I'm not inclined to write her views off quite yet even though I know she is wrong about my alignment. Though she says she relies on her gut I believe there is something specific motivating her actions as she also does not come off as wishy washy, which is why I narrowed it down to guardedness and anxiety that she's picking up on.

#3
Like I said I think that Casey is high on disagreeableness, or has a tendency to be competitive, and I think because of her posting style and how she describes herself she is more extraverted and less sensitive to anxiety, at least compared to myself and possibly some other players in this game, so when she picks up on these tells she is inclined to be suspicious of them especially because they are unlike herself, some people act this way when they lie, and she is inclined to be suspicious in general because she is disagreeable. For yet another example on this behavior, she initially didn't like the Larvar slot on D1 when he did not jump in very much as the replacement, but viewed him more favorably when he started speaking up on D2.

Like I mentioned toward the end of #1, another key difference of extraversion that may cause disagreebleness to reflect differently is the subtrait of extraversion called assertiveness. Casey seems to value assertiveness highly, and being very low in extraversion myself I tend to behave much less assertively IRL and online.

This trait doesn't always stop me from speaking out, because the disagreeableness makes me competitive and the neuroticism makes me defensive, and the openness makes me desire to be creative. I suspect that Casey is accurately identifying my behavior as being in turns quiet, creative, aggressive or defensive, and when I do speak out it comes from a desire to win rather than a genuine desire to assert myself, so while she initially appreciated the creativity she became suspicious of my play as it seemed anxious, guarded and aggressive (though she is also aggressive but in a less guarded way) and from her point of view not very genuine as she values and is motivated by assertiveness, not just winning.

It makes sense to me that she could accurately identify my behavior, while still incorrectly concluding me as scum, if she is observing guardedness, anxiety, desire to win combined with lack of assertiveness, as some people act this way when they lie and it is different from her own behavior and she is presumably town. I believe that after interacting with me for a longer period of time she would realize that these traits in my case are not indicative of deception, as my behavior is like this when I'm telling the truth as well, since it's part of my personality.

It also makes sense you would choose Casey to push with Frederick once you saw how she is reading the game, as being extraverted and disagreeable, it's less likely she has the introspection to realize you're using her because she is extraverted and is more prone to disagree with me if I try to change her mind because she is disagreeable (no offense Casey.)

Umm if you're seriously town then it would be more difficult to find an example of how your play was not erratic. If you're town then whatever drugs you were on when you wrote that stuff outlined in I want some.

If you're scum the play makes a lot of sense though. I believe you will flip scum here.

I believe it's critically important to hammer Frederick today because his plan is to bandwagon me off of Casey's vote who is town. I outlined my theory of this in .

If my theory is correct then Frederick believed now was the best time to force a play. He would only need to persuade one more townie to join the bandwagon after Casey's vote; Italiano who scum reads neither Frederick nor I or Lavar who I accused of being scum earlier today. Pretty solid odds for a scum in this setup.

I'm especially weary of Frederick's timing around the mod's announcement of a replacement of Rocknil and you and I's brief discussion of the pros and cons of a policy lynch.

If a) Rocknil is scum who voted Frederick at the beginning of the day with Frederick's guidance, creating distance and giving Rocknil the option of bussing or changing his vote later, now is an opportunity for the replacement to appear, "unvote while he rereads", and then hop on my bandwagon "for x reason."

If b) Even worse Rocknil is town, then policy lynching Rocknil will enable Frederick a cross with me on lylo day where he and his partner can vote me and only one townie is needed to be persuaded to vote me to win the game (which he believes could be Casey.)

I have two more things to add in follow up posts.
I don't see such a thing in post 813.
Look in the quotes in post . The case I outlined is color-coded and made entirely of you and Casey's words. I also underlined some important words sparingly, at the very beginning and end I think.

That raises an important point though,
if anyone currently in this game or replaces into this game is colorblind, you will not be able to see the case in . It's using the font colors red, blue and pink, and highlights the areas where I believe Frederick is showcasing a scum motivation and manufacturing a read in reaction to Casey's posts. It's what I believe is a very strong scum tell coming from Frederick along with an associative town tell on Casey.

This sentence is a stain on an otherwise bespoke garment.

Still. I don't think Frog is the best lim for today.

VOTE: Rocknil

In addition to sketchy play + replace out, I don't think it's fair to force someone to replace in, roll mafia, and climb an uphill battle.

My most likely pairing is Rock+Frog, but I'm having doubts about the Frog part of that.

This game is small enough that I don't feel like I need to make a chart, but I will if it gets necessary.

Actually, on thinking about it further, Casey didn't just rely on gut, did she? She only used it initially, but proceeded to make posts regarding some things she is finding suspicious about your playstyle.

There are several other things that have made me suspicious. I am detailing them in a post I am writing.

I currently believe Frogsterking may have night killed MUSHSHAGANA with the attempt to drop suspicion on ItalianoVD and me. He believed that everyone will dabble in night kill analysis and, when no one did, he had to do it himself. Some posts Frogsterking has made that support my hypothesis are post 615 and post 732.

Another reason I am scumreading Frogsterking is for his numerous perspective slips that he has attempted to explain away every single time. There is one in post 732 ("I believe I overestimated her end of day suspicion against me as well which is causing me to rethink my interpretation of events." Why is he overestimating MUSHSHAGANA's end of day suspicion against him if he is town? Shouldn't he be underestimating it. This was so subtle I actually read it underestimating the first time I read the post.), post 799 (details in post 823) and post 640 (I may be putting a tad-bit much weight in this one as a similar statement was made by one of the mafia members in this post.). I think that is all of it, but I may find some more.

Actually, on looking further back the part about Frogsterking killing MUSHSHAGANA to frame me makes less sense to me now because Frogsterking didn't even start the day attempting to get rid of me, stating instead that he didn't think I would have killed MUSHSHAGANA in post 593. Another duo was hypothesized instead. However, I still think the perspective slips are there and not imaginary unless Frogsterking could give an explanation for my observation in post 732.

I think hammering Rocknil today is risky, as I think there is both a high chance of both Rocknil-Frederick and Lavar-Frederick pair, and in the case of Lavar-Frederick they will be able to night kill a player that town reads me and force a majority off Casey's vote in D3.

I’ve skimmed over the last few pages and I’m still trying to understand the Frogster/Frederick angles.

Let’s hope our suspicions of Rock were right.

I’ll take the night to reread the cases of Frog/Fred so I can fully get what both of you are trying to say.

This sentence is a stain on an otherwise bespoke garment.

Still. I don't think Frog is the best lim for today.

VOTE: Rocknil

In addition to sketchy play + replace out, I don't think it's fair to force someone to replace in, roll mafia, and climb an uphill battle.

My most likely pairing is Rock+Frog, but I'm having doubts about the Frog part of that.

This game is small enough that I don't feel like I need to make a chart, but I will if it gets necessary.
Because that sentence is more cliche, or because it reads as less genuine, or because it is poorly written, or for a completely different reason altogether?

I think a full-blown chart might just be too much information no matter how accurate it is, but some form of a reads list is probably helpful to other players at this point in the game, myself included.

I can empathize with this post because I feel if two players that I read as town started tunneling each other I would feel unsure of what was going on.

The reason why I chose to use color to represent my case in was because I was studying color for marketing which was on my mind and I believed Frederick's case did not make sense and the points I had to make about it's irrationality and scum motivation required more of an artist than a lawyer.

In post 835, Fredrick A Campbell wrote:Actually, on looking further back the part about Frogsterking killing MUSHSHAGANA to frame me makes less sense to me now because Frogsterking didn't even start the day attempting to get rid of me, stating instead that he didn't think I would have killed MUSHSHAGANA in post 593. Another duo was hypothesized instead. However, I still think the perspective slips are there and not imaginary unless Frogsterking could give an explanation for my observation in post 732.
Yes..

If you are town I would heavily encourage you to reconsider the things you said because I don't believe they make any sense.

What was the perspective slip in ?

Hmm. That's actually why I used the red and blue on your comments I highlighted in . I was influenced by your decision to use Beethoven as your avatar.
