Those two thoughts were independent of each other, but tbh i'm not really following their back and forth.... kinda seems to be something I can't grok.

Why the fuck shouldn’t I? I’m not really judging every post and then summing how I felt up, I’m just going off of what I think as I read the thread. What the hell is the reason me having those 2 in the same tier of reads is such a critical offense? Because you and Bulge seem to be insinuating that.
super defensive over such an obvious question reads like playing dumb

BTW just gonna set up a little scavenger hunt. Anyone is welcome to try and find the thing I think is reasonably scummy from myself, but whoever finds the right thing will get special attention. Could be good or bad attention. Multiple guesses are allowed but don't abuse them.

I don't think "grrr you shouldn't have us in the same tier" is an "obvious question", like, if y'all were both leanscum would you have pitched the same fit? I hadn't seen/recalled anything in my reading to push you two one way or the other. I think that was a half-baked distancing attempt, actually, trying to push the idea that I shouldn't equate you two in my reads.
You wanna know what the scavenger hunt is supposed to be? Take part and you might find out! :)
Out of the people who said they felt like they were alone (Bell, Cakez, mwb), Bell's felt the least scripted, and more like an actually expression of real feelings. I admit it could just be because Bell has been consistently pushed this game, though.

I do not townread Gamma anymore either. I believe that he could have easily faked the read on Tammy which I townread him for before.
I've also noticed that he thinks that I'm scum with Taylor, and I might read through that sometime later. However, I can't exactly respond to it because the interactions are one sided.

GAMMA when you say "the rest", how many were you picturing?
one or two, as I was operating under a 4 scum assumption then
I also was leaning more towards DS or Nahdia at the time

BTW I had the thought that the lonely-posters could have been traitor crumbing, so I'll give a quick headline on each. Bell I think could be second-traitor but still doesn't seem like groupscum at least, Cakez I'm not sure what I'd rate his potential to be second-traitor at, mwb I could see as either groupscum or second-traitor.

Medically, breaking out in hives means they still think you’re town but their body sees you as superscum.

Gamma what makes you think there is a second traitor?

Eh I don't really see how it's alignment indicative for Bell(yet) and I don't really care how he reads me.
I guess. it's still weird you didnt point it out even if it doesn't affect your read of bell. early game you were pointing out every little thing you could but i still think it's odd independent of that.

In post 2679, The Bulge wrote:peta's first post of d2, 2 pages into the phase. this post, oddly enough, bears striking similarities to Bell's latest reads which.... I don't know what to make of that
are you trying to claim there's a problem with me having a start of day list trying to close out the game via PoE when we had 3 conftown and several strong townreads
also this doesnt really read to me as "questioning me" so much as defending yourself in the form of a question
i mean that's kind of the point of throwing shade, though, isn't it, you don't attack people too strong but this is a position where it's beneficial to scum to start instilling doubts about as many people as possible because options fr votes are severely limited. in concert with the rest of your post where you accuse people of throwing shade at you without engaging you or w/e, of course i'm gonna take that as critical toward me. and you drop the conclusion of "idk what to say about this post rn but like when are we yeeting bell?" which is a fairly fuckin gross statement given i see basically no rationale for it

trying to argue a different between "questioning" you and "defending myself in the form of a question" is just nitpicking.
do you really think I'm in any position right now to be instilling doubts?? i havent done shit of consequence this game, and I don't have any strong leads. why is my scum catchup tactic to come in and shoot a bunch of spitballs at everyone voting me? your logic doesnt make sense, and even less so if you claim to be reading my process. nobody except conftown has engaged me this phase. plenty of you, however, have expressed interest in voting me. it's the difference between trying to solve a gamestate and trying to push a gamestate. no wagon has formed on me because it would be a shit wagon. but a lot of people want everyone to know they'd be okay with it if it came to it! what's that called again when you try to covertly suggest that someone is scummy without pushing it uhhhhh

as for the bell thing, i have reasons for scumreading him outside of that singular post of his which I haven't gotten to yet. this is also something I thought was quite clear.

it's not. my point is you ignored the context around that post and jumped to where it looked like I was shading you and you felt the need to explain yourself before any back-and-forth had actually begun.

I just don't understand how you yourself posted the activity overview in-thread all formatted and everything and you don't see what's strange about putting the same single-word descriptor on our slot, ESPECIALLY unsorted, although any tier would have been unusual at the very least.
