That question was directed at both A50, Titus, Mastina.

And I suppose I should turn the contempt button down on Mastina because at least they're trying.
I haven't read your case and I never will because I already town told.

I don't fake ignorance, but that doesn't mean scumastina can't be genuinely ignorant. :P

I never fake a mistake, but I can genuinely make a legit mistake.

@Bell - don’t expect that it would be feigning scum ignorance full front. Scum don’t like to read rules either. :lol: in regards to the Mastina question. I personally am town reading Mastina here.

Mastina won’t do anything as scum that they wouldn’t do as town.

I'm not sure how helpful introducing the concept of thinking about whether your roles were given to you by friends or people that know you as scum versus just not knowing that.

Yes, there is an expectation that I should be townreading them.

That expectation is not burden of proficiency, because burden of proficiency is an expectation of shown demonstrated competency/accuracy.

My expectation requires no skill, no competency, no accuracy.

Just the presence of being town.

I've only seen one post that gave me that feeling at all.

One post
can
be enough, sometimes, but one post can also be scum having made one good post among hundreds of not-as-good posts.
So I want more from them to better judge the slot and get a better read, if the one post was a fluke of them being scum and happening to briefly say something that looked town, or if the one post was just the first of many town posts to follow.

If you mean this:

Then the answer is "probably not". HOWEVER, I do tend to get analytical/mechanical so I don't think it would benefit me in a large at all. I mean, public info is public.

If that's NOT the question you're referring to then please point me to "that question".

I don't understand why you have this expectation for only this slot though, if you're not BoPing shouldnt this apply to everyone

She’s gonna call the same stuff out as either alignment, even if you are partners with her.

It’s the level that she pushes is the difference.

Well, she won't be shooting townies at night when she's town, that's for sure. ;)

P.S. NOT EVEN if she rolls Vig, as -according to her- Vihilante is anti-Town and should always holster.

That's exactly what I meant.
@A50.
Thx.

@April, you're not wrong. I think some players from meta are more prone to read the set ups than others and sometimes scum get a little nervous when I ask town to tell me they're town. Or whether as scum to disagree or not take the absurd question seriously.

It does, actually, unless I have meta indicating to me that a lack of town/scum isn't a scum-indicator.

By default, given enough posts from a user and with no meta suggesting otherwise, a lack of a read one way or another would be a minor scum-indicator.

Oh heavens no.

Vigilantes aren't anti-town.

ME getting a vigilante IS anti-town. :P

And, there is a caveat to me and Vig powers.
If I am in a "use it or lose it" situation with a vig, I will in fact use it.
If the vig is gated significantly, I will probably use it at least once.
If the game is on evens and I am fairly sure my vig is the only way to get to odds, I will use it.
If I need to prove that I have the vig power, then I will use it.

Generally speaking, that means that I actually will use a vig shot in quite a lot of cases--but only if one (or ideally, more) of the criteria above are met.

Otherwise, I will indeed holster because fuck giving me a vig, my townreads are always more accurate than my scumreads so I'm disproportionately likely to shoot town, making it an antitown role for ME to have.

Actually, here's my first serious vote 9actually my first in-game vote, since my RVS went to a spectator)

VOTE: Gamma

Gamma has been on MS for 4.5 hours now. He made 47 public posts (the last if which was maybe 2 minutes ago) but is yet to even make an ego post in this game.
