i can understand having that impression prolly

Although i would say this game is relatively high on fluff for me so far, i dont have much in useful content. I can see maybe thinking i'm more likely to get into the game because i'd feel more stiff as scum perhaps? I might have led into the game with the draft analysis thing, for example

i promised i wasnt gonna start self metaing, oups

As for skitts' replies, I actually do think i'd find it generally easier to create reads and content as scum than to mess around as town, cause im a lot more concerned with how i come off as scum -- and being overly fluffy can come off as scum mucking about

I don't think that's happened since 2019.

just surprised we got to this point this early tbh
it
was
a real thought, in that i saw Tweet's opening post and thought "hm. scum maybe?" and then tried to figure out why i was feeling that way, while continuing to press on it to see what would happen.

but not a real thought in that "i think this is a legitimate reason to be scumreading Tweet."
"Sibling," Farkran asked, starting slowly.

because I just modded a game with scum her where she came off as hard town sometimes.

she has a strong scum game.

I just don't think Hectic will tell her to flirt with you in order to win a mafia game :]

it's more likely she's doing it to make him jealous and peeved that he didn't pick her.

Generally speaking? All of his early posts are really scummy, but part of me is psyched because of the setup

Feel like Pooky would just troll as town just to spite Flavor Leaf for picking him (or maybe I'm projecting)
FL doesn't pick the town, though, the mod does. And I'm not sure I actually understand this.

Why are you assuming Hectic would have told her that?

I also started it.

I won a SK game that way once.

I was going to do a huge one but only if i rolled scum cause I dont actually think it's that helpful, Hectic is probably going to fuck with it

once again Tweet continues to validate me, it's really hard to scumread you for this, even though i want to because you'd be doing such a great job of pocketing me right now if you were scum.
but no i feel like you're going to obvtown again, which is the outcome i wanted anyway.

I solved the entire game with my POE draft spec in Titus vs Alisae Day 1.

Because we always argue Day 1. I think if we lived until like Day 3, it'd happen.

Here's the thing, Hecticity, my scum game excels early game. My town game excels late game. My Day 1 reads aren't the greatest, but I've been hyena'd and hard pushed, and night killed as town all through last year.

I even got removed from a game for 2 day phases in a row from scum.

You must be feeling pretty nervous, I imagine.

You can't kill me.

Nah, I don't think he picks Auro/Nancy. I picked Nancy in Pooky vs FL, and I feel like Hectic would know I would catch Auro.

What is the dynamic between Titus and Hectic?
