I don't think that my early game was steering the discussion in a futile direction; I'd argue that my early game set a pretty serious tone early which was a good building block for some of the other stuff that happened today.

I've moved past this a while ago.
How does this question help you figure out my alignment?

I don't find it's something people take advantage of so all my attempts at fact checking this end up being. "oh this person does this as both alignments."
I brought this up as a response to the argument that I was genuinely pushing to get NM lynched early - policy lynching is hilarious uncommon and never actually works and this is something I knew coming into this game.

I actually agree that this is more than Ive seen scum-beeboy do

But posting volume is something that can be guilted from a hydra buddy so meh
mhm we should just yeet anyone who tries to posit that beeboy is town simply because he's posting

if there's anything that bothers me about bulge is that he's very obviously been reading but he's chosen to only engage about one thing in particular and that thing is an unflipped association (infinity/l&g) which i'm worried the grounds aren't particularly solid on.

I realize he has Qs for me about infinity which i should responsibly reexamine my read while answering, but that will probably come tonight.
looking forward to it!

I look forward to this. I know that I owe a full explanation on my VFT read; currently feels like I'm the only person that doesn't think they are the towniest towns who ever towned which is causing me to dig my heels in a bit more than I'd like to but I'd like to get that read sorted out quick so I can determine whether I'm being dumb or not.
who is townbinning VFT?

This is sketchy.

None of these are good reasons for VFT town.

Sometimes I check the game when I'm walking into work or waiting for someone to come back to the office or waiting for someone to finish with their credit card application. When I post during these times I don't address everything I want to at once.

All town except for disaster which is more of an "I don't know" as opposed to "scum".

There is some stuff that I disliked that I talked about in responses to Kismet and responses to skitter. I'll probably talk about more stuff in my continued catch-up posts but if you wanted an isolated post on them that'll have to wait unt later.

Why do you think this? As scum, it allows him to dig into what people don't like him and course correct - it also gives him a direct chance to change people's reads on him.
Psychologically I'd expect scum to want to look like they don't care about reads on them, though admittedly that's pretty weak and I'm not at all confident the slot is town

I don't disagree but I don't think this matters to what I'm saying. we can talk about intentions/expectations, and we can talk about what ended up going down. two different conversations.

that's fair and I agree lol but I don't think I have ever in my life been anywhere close to what I would call obvtown in the early phases of a game.
