piirirational u r correct I don't have a read that's anywhere near confident outside of BM but that's bc besides his whole thing with me, I have seen nothing that really catches my attention here

Ofc we are still technically kinda in rvs so this is a fairly weak read but ye I will be putting this here for future reference of what I was thinking 3 pages into the game. First impressions can often help town find the scums so I'm not too sure if I found one but we'll see :D

In post 154, Noraa wrote:The reason is that town is going to let the other scums do whatever tf they want.
Why is this a bad thing tho, we still get a scum for the trouble and we can worry about sorting the others later if this is TvS
my point is that we also need to be keeping an eye out for the other scums. I, for one want a BM lim today since I am literally so certain those aggressive pushes dont come from town. But I think while we are doing this, we should be keeping an eye out for the other scums.
to elaborate a bit on my read - nora right now is doing exactly to bm what they are accusing bm of doing to others. the hypocrisy is not lost. i don't see nora vs bm as TvT but right now I'm null on BM and scumreading nora, and i absolutely think this could be an SvS bussing episode.
i'm slightly confused as to why town would be this confident in a read that they have developed in the first few hours of the game? if you're THIS confident that BM is scum, then simply voting them and removing them (without "keeping an eye out" for the other scum) would give town a massive leg up. i'm looking at nora as potential scum, and i'm looking at BM as a potential scumpartner. piisirrational is looking pretty good to me right now, although i will acknowledge that i am biased towards analyzers/gamesolvers so i'm putting him as a null, maybe a slight townlean. although menalque is kinda annoying me with their posting frequency, i'm townleaning them because they seem at least a little bit genuine about trying to read the BM/Nora bandwagon. no one else has enough substance to be read right now.

to respond to #224 - no it didn't; most players haven't posted anything substantial yet.

woah y'all are way too energetic

stop starting games at 4am. smh

VOTE: Noraa
lamisty, arguments to attack BM seem very artificial and forced, very fence-sitty play for example

dont concur with the read as BM as scum theatre though; will reread as at first glace VT claim is pretty realistic?

town vibes from menal + datisi, relaxed opening + attempts to solve BMvNoraa so townpoints to that

Okay, let’s talk about this

Why do you think it isn’t scummy to catch up, give opinions on posts made by two players involved in prob the most significant relationship thus far in the game, and then essentially avoid that by sweeping it aside and calling it TvT after making posts that /do/ imply that you have opinions on the slots

this sounds like super forced?

piirational / taylor / noraa is this actually the solve

Oh no, I just meant that any given player is more likely to be town than scum at rand (incidentally why it’s a good idea to approach all interactions in as good a faith *as you’re able to* because you prob are dealing with someone genuinely trying to communicate in most cases)

Do you not think BM is projecting an equivalent amount of confidence in noraa!scum as noraa I’d expressing in BM!scum?

I want to say shelly voting me for reasons she knows very well don't apply since that is my play style means she is scum. However I'm fairly certain she would prolly try to kill off a LHF even as town. So that is making my read on her a bit wonky. Unlike the rest of the playerlist, shelly and Taylor do know pretty well that this is precisely my playstyle aorn

all good! yeah i haven't been on the site in a while and don't have personal experience with anyone here i don't think; but i do think that scum opening with straight bussing on page 2 is reasonable and not completely irration
bussing is one of those things that you can WIFOM the hell out of though so i'll have to wait and see
