If the latter is the case, then wouldn't them answering this question truthfully rather undermine their vote? (ie a pressure vote that is clearly only there for pressure stops having as much impact)In post 74, LlamaMama wrote:JacksonVirgo, how much do you actually think Horsewoman is scum, and how much is your vote for pressure's sake?- LlamaMama

Fine, I'll go through both possibilities before you answer then. I would have rather had it the other way round so I could have a better understanding of your perspective first, but *shrug*
In 68, Horsewoman says she doesn't have any reads yet. This means she probably won't have much to offer when pressured. So why does JV choose to pressure there right afterwards? It's a lead doomed to dry up, since Horsewoman has already said she's come up short of any reads. A pressure vote there makes little sense as a result, and I'm not sure why JV chose to push there right after seeing evidence that it wouldn't lead to much.
So I thought JV might actually think Horsewoman is scum. But based on what's been posted so far I'm not seeing it. My gut reaction to Horsewoman's posts has been town, and the evidence against her in 71 is fairly baseline - it's a lot about what town SHOULD be doing, but not really evidence that Horsewoman IS SCUM.
So tl;dr I don't think JV's vote makes much sense from any town perspective and is kind of doing the exact thing Horsewoman is being accused of: creating 'content' that won't actually go anywhere.

I'm going to head off to sleep now but I'm gonna say a few words before I do.
Llama's "read-fishing" strikes me as strange to ask as Town, it's like they're trying to fake content and see if my vote is real or otherwise to see if they can start pushing there as well. Either that or they trying to gauge the collective read on their buddy (and whether or not it's just for pressure) though that one is kinda weird to do objectively and I doubt they'd be that blatant as scumbuddies but it's a weird interaction nonetheless. Horse was blatantly trying to sap the town-cred from their posts by saying it's absolutely pro-town to hide behind the efforts of other players by claiming to have involved themselves with pushing the game out of RVS. Both are individually scummy but I'm trying to get a feel of whether Llama's post lead to them being possibly aligned or otherwise.

The vote isn't for pressure, I think their inconsistencies are scummy and how they are pushing the work to other players is definitely not a pro-town mindset. Them claiming it is in a backwards way to discredit my case is another tell that I'm heading in the right direction. And I'm not calling them out for making content that goes nowhere, I am calling them out for asking others to do the work for them and attempting to take credit for it.In post 80, LlamaMama wrote:Fine, I'll go through both possibilities before you answer then.

This is the post of my main read, they're not even trying to post on interactions or anything. The game right now is on page 3, nobody would really have any solid reads at all but it doesn't mean we all just give up and let other's do everything. I first read this as a joke post as I've said, which is why I brushed off Marks read but then when they made that second post I quoted said that it was at least semi-serious and that's plain anti-town behaviour and I'm not going to let that slip regardless if they're Town acting anti-town.In post 68, Horsewoman wrote:I did want to drive the game forward but I didn't (and don't) have any reads this early so I hoped someone else would do it for me

Your other posts are ++TR but asking for meta on pg4 strikes me as a bit forced - particularly as this is nothing something I recall you doing in our 2 previous games together where you were townIn post 81, JacksonVirgo wrote:I'm going to head off to sleep now but I'm gonna say a few words before I do.

This feels a bit forced and is also inaccurate IMO - pressuring low-info slots is part of the game - if anything its the slots without reads that are the ones that require pressuring to get info out of.In post 80, LlamaMama wrote:Fine, I'll go through both possibilities before you answer then.

I think it's probably fair to say that Horsewoman's claim that they were progressing the game by asking other players to create content is on shaky ground in terms of logic. Whether that is AI is a harder question to answer, but you shading JV over his vote on Horse here is a bit sus- JacksonVirgo

1) I don't fully understand your question but I'll answer it as I've read it. I don't think they've "given up", I think that they aren't putting in the effort to begin with.In post 98, Guillotina wrote:

2) Of course not, some prime examples of anti-town behaviour include Not_Mafia, Not_Mafia and Not_Mafia. I feel a policy-elimination is needed for players like that regardless, even though it never happens in practice. However, my entire case on Horse isn't exactly them acting anti-town in the normal sense. As I've stated, they've been acting for their own personal gain which is more likely from a scum mindset than a simple Town acting anti-town. Whether that be from personal bias against those types of players or whatnot it's one of my two top scum-reads, the other being LlamaBeanie.Tactical Lurker - JacksonVirgo
