I think I understand your point now. Like the use of again with a hyphen with it for creating the impression of thoroughness instead of transparently sharing all they have to share and letting the volume speak for its voluminousness.

I agree that's something that's scummy on balance but "lukewarm takes are usually scummy" is what's actually speaking to me.
I’m not sure you understand—I’m trying to argue that TGP is towny. Scum defending town tend to say “I have a townread on x person” and explain their logic sufficiently so that it looks like a real read. TGP is trying to go further than that. They really want people to believe gypyx is town, which is town-indicative or possibly scumbuddy indicative. I agree that it’s less of a “here are my thoughts” type post but I actually think that’s towny here for that reason.
I'm not sure I understand/agree, I think in the earlier phase of the game townies don't really go the extra mile on towncasing because they can just do it later. Lengthy towncases can lamist better than short towncases though, so scum would have incentive to do that in any phase of the game. I have a fun wallpost towncase I made as scum I share sometimes but I feel too lazy to go grab it but just imagine it.

Hmm, I guess scum towncasing townies is just not something I see a ton. A decent amount of this read is gut too, I get a vibe of “I want you to believe gypyx is town” from TGP

While suspicions get thrown around, the preparations must continue!

skitter30 is atop a ladder, attempting to put up decorations along the wall. She
just about
can't reach the higher parts.
Infinity 324 - the 324 being the latest version number of his system model - extends his mechanical legs to reach the higher parts of the walls with ease.
skitter30 feels sheepish.

i can see why Pooky thinks Infinity is sorta struggling to justify things. It came off like he was distrusting the thread as a whole's townbloc, but when pressed on it, he explained that he was talking about himself and projecting his concern on the thread as a whole.

I still find other things about Infinity towny. and I don't really think there's scum motivation for casting doubt on the townbloc but not even have any reasoning for it beyond paranoia

That’s just a personality trait of mine I guess. I’m bad at articulating my feelings, and sometimes if I push myself I can put things into words but often not.

In post 693, Isis wrote:The discussion around the infinity comment made me realize shading a townblock for size without picking anyone can like, benefit scum without putting oneself in harm's way and that make sense. I wonder if that's getting to become too much of the game at this point.
I guess it's sort of hands-off, but at the same time it feels borderline suicidal to go "I don't trust the townblock" as scum and then have nothing to back that up with
In post 693, Isis wrote:I will dayvig Pooky the next time he says this game's plot is not about a wedding between me and Morning Tweet (who so far seems like a town bride but if it turns out she's scum there will still be a wedding it will just be even more forbidden)

can you work this into your theory somehow pooky? pretty please? even if it's only for appeasement

i don't have an opinion on skitts but im inclined to believe Isis does. I don't think Isis' point about skitts is AI but i also dont tr skitts yetr

What does this quote mean Gypyx?
Basically, i found that scum tends to try to say stuff that they know is true when they can, so if scum did in fact made choices pregame, i lean strongly towards scum!jessie
using mechanical speculation and locking himself to some extent into a scumread on jessie if his mechanical speculation is correct. gypyx is never scum with jessie here.
i guess I just have a polar opposite take to this, maybe. i feel like scum is less likely to point out stuff that is true, because it has the potential to read awkwardly. It's much easier to speculate as town and get it right than it is for scum to have genuine-looking speculation that lands in the right spot, imo
In post 735, Infinity 324 wrote: felt like it was trying to convince me, meaning TGP is likely town or they and gypyx are scumbuddies, probably the former.
i agree, i don't see the motivation for TGP to spend so much time defending Gypx -- and I don't even think it'd be wise for them to do as scumpartners with him

I also like that they reevaluated jessie out of scum to null
