redados SR'd saude, didnt he?

but you've made your point, I'll sort redados later as I have experience with them, for now I want to sort you + Grendel first
But he did absolutely nothing with it. He did not try to engage anyone or push which lead to me thinking he is trying to avoid confrontation.

I agree with the sentiment that scum are likely to play the rational Richard in this scenario while town!Shelly is raging at other towns.
So yes, good place to put some pressure.

this is kinda sheepy tbh. dont think NEE would try pocketing me tho

His towngame (from my experiences) is that he attacks a person (who's high chance of being scum) d1 quite hard

You're seriously gonna tell me to "share reads" like 2 pages into the game?
fence sitting? 2 pages into the game you expect me to have a solid read?
I literally just replied to redados' post and said you landed a lot of scumroles. Thats a fact not an opinion so I dont see what's wrong there.
Shelly if ur town, the things ur using to SR me are weak as hell and maybe you should try to actually scumhunt instead of pick at me for no good reason.
if ur scum, then ur just setting me up as limbait after what's his face started sussing me(sorry I seriously dont remember the name and am too lazy to go back and check)
What Shelly is doing is pro-town cause she's moving the game out of RVS finally. I'm glad she did it.

I was leaning town on this post but I just realised I was probably pocketed for a bit there

In Doggos 2027 hosted by JacksonVirgo, Noraa was scum and was very active.

The purpose of mafia is to avoid getting lynched by making townies cast doubt at other townies. Therefore a universally townread slot is bad for scum, thus the strategy of shading said slots has been born!

Its very rare for a town slot to suspect ALL other slots because, some of us are town and should be able to towntell more or less

Sure but this was not about universally townread slots but about a player finding a lot of players suspicious.

As I said I do not disagree that finding every slot suspicious is questionable but on the other hand and this might not be the best read actually, but something I've noticed in a lot of less experienced players is overthinking things making them I don't know scared I suppose for the lack of a better word to commit to a townread on someone because they keep thinking of ways the slot could be scum. It doesn't only happen to less experienced players, some players are also to proud etc. Overall I agree with the sentiment that being non committal is scummy, but my impression of that slot that this is his first game in a long time and his reads comes more from being paranoid which I associate with town rather than to throw shade at players. I could be wrong because I am a bit torn on him

I will also gladly admit that my read is probably influenced by the fact that you called him out and I find you slightly suspicious because to me you came across as just wanting to be heard rather than actually trying to solve. The different meta reads being thrown at you does mean I might not be totally fair when evaluating your slot though and you did admit you don't really have much to go on early on which I obviously understand but yea
