If there's one thing I can't stand on this site it's people metaing themselves

Actually add to that the "self-indulgent valueless meta dive" on other players filled with names of ppl I don't know and game info I don't care about

Because I didn't get townpings from it at all.

In post 600, Titus wrote:It makes me town for today. Deal with it. Mastina and I know how to read each other.
There is no way Titus writes this and doesn't think "Everyone is going to want to kill me after this." she's practically asking to be voted! i'm confused how to interpret it, other than noting this must just be how she tends to talk i suppose. Really confident even if it sounds super bad
~Morning
Oh I imagine it is inviting people to kill her, but the people that she thinks will kill her don't operate using nooses, they use bullets. :P
In post 696, April Ludgate wrote:I’d be posting way more if I were scum here, Menalque. Go check Animal U pick. I’ve read like nothing of this game. Bad time for me to have it start. I’m tryin to catch up.
For the record, can mostly vouch for this, with a caveat: FL has had lurker-scum-games where he was scum and was playing similarly to how April is now. (So basically, can vouch that is accurate--incidentally, that is the first post from Ban Hydras I've seen that has made me think "this slot might be town", in that literally all posts before didn't give me town or scum vibes but this one post did give minor town vibes.)

Which is why I am more or less saying, not town yet, but also not scum yet, will get a better read when April does more FL things. :P

Ehh, the "I look scummy because I'm doing things but why would I, as scum, look like scum" has never done much for me.
That's fair that I didn't reference which post you were asking about. It's a bad habit. Sorry.

I'm waiting on april to town tell, but I don't think he really will this game because he set my expectations too high by being flavorleaf.

Mate, if scum assigned town slots their PRs then it would be easy for then to both run them over by day and shoot them by night. No? So it follows they pick what types of power to give town, but not whom to give it to. It also helps them make good fake claims, since they know what PRs are NOT included. (And now that I said that I foresee the mod stepping in and stating the exact opposite just so I would look dumb) :lol:

(For the record, in the last year or so, my scumgame has been utter garbage and I haven't been able to effort as scum at all. Dunno why, but it's just. Not had the magic. So, yes, as scum I've been largely worthless as a player and yes. As scum, I have not efforted/gamesolved at all, so yes, efforting a gamesolve
is
alignment-indicative to me, at least in the last year. You never know, maybe, mystically, magically, for some ungodly reason, this game randomly is the game where scumastina regains her moxie and becomes the menace of ol'. But it hasn't happened yet and you have my guarantee that it didn't happen this game. :P)
In post 717, TheGoldenParadox wrote:furthermore, your vote on me because i'm openly defending her implies that you either think i'm scum trying to pocket/defend a townie or we're scum together, implying the latter because apparently you also believe she is scum. want to elaborate on this a lil?

(For the record, push come to shove, if I had to sort April it would be town, but it's with the caveat that it's not a strong read because April's not doing anything that's strongly alignment-indicative. But I do get townvibes off of what little April is doing along with the contrast to established usual scumplay.)

As scum would you be above claiming set up ignorance for easy town points?

This is a perhaps better illustration of the readslist--Morning Mage and Ban Hydras in their townier moments are up there, Morning Mage and Ban Hydras in their less-townie moments are down there, and the read is highly ambivalent between the two extremes. (There's no middle ground. Just one, or the other.)
