Considering i saw pretty enough trollpeople, i think marci is town likely.

T3 mention some secret meta, and if she in maf list, then he noticed it. I just ask, is twerking alien have chain with that meta or what?

Hello friends

[Hectic]

Could everyone give 3 or 4 players they think are scum, and why?

I'm suspicious of players who have voiced minimal or few scumreads, despite the fact there are FOUR scumazzers out and about from a town player's perspective. Players that fall under this category include T3, marcistar, Toogeloo, and probably others

It's probably pretty difficult for scum to voice many scumreads here, given they either have to choose in the limited pool of townies, or give scumreads on their buds

[Hectic]

Is that toog read based on meta, Art? Which posts?

He's voiced exactly 1 townread and 0 scumreads this game so far. He doesn't seem to care much about the popcorn vender having the right information to shoot scum, not interested in expressing who he thinks they should shoot etc

[Pavowski]

Hello friends

I will miss the pictograms but welcome some more concrete thoughts from this slot

[Hectic]

Actually I think NM being chosen clears Enchant.

marci's normal play gets her scumread but using a ~secret~ meta tell it should become apparent if she is scum pretty fast.

Luke is a strong town player but it should become readily apparent if he's scum so I would hold off on shooting him.

Hockey seems to have good intent. Hard to explain, kind of just vibes.

T3's play this game has been really flashy and weird.

231/232/242 all express townreads on marci given T3's experience and meta with her, but once opinion of her steadily decreased in the thread, she's "lean-scum" in 299. Unsure whether that's scum capitalising on a townie's stocks going down, or some last ditch distancing.

The people you want to hipfire are presumably people you SR, so whats the point of hiding this info from town

I don't want those people to alter their play just yet.

I think Toog is towny for the secretiveness around the reads. He seems to be quietely solving on his own.

This read made me wanna draw some art of a trash can

Newbies being all over the place and having complex thoughts like that is very strongly town indicative.

^Also, lol @ T3 treating Hockey like he's a toddler. I wanna say he's TMIing Hockey-town

[Hectic]

Hello friends

I will miss the pictograms but welcome some more concrete thoughts from this slot :)

There is a time and place for them!

I have too many thoughts this game for pictograms, would have to be churning them out at 20 a day

[Hectic]

Lukewarm likely town for:

-Being aware Not_Mafia actually has good reads, yet picking him to be the gun bearer nonetheless. Picking the snorlax for first gun bearer is actually a pretty bad strat, since he's a very viable misshot down the line. His power comes from having good reads, not being able to look town. So, I think scum probably assumed his reads would match the power level of his general content (bad)

-289 isn't a perfect

gourmet

townslip, but it's more likely to be real than faked

-The marci meta susread was very good

It's probably pretty difficult for scum to voice many scumreads here, given they either have to choose in the limited pool of townies, or give scumreads on their buds

I'm still sitting in null on too many people: Toogelo, Vulture, Enchant.

I share your sentiment of suspicion and am therefore obliged to lean scum on these 3. From most to least scummy that'd be Toog -> Vulture -> Enchant, but that's based on not much and I want to hear more from them, hence my question on the previous page.

I have trouble reconciling my feelings on Marci and T3. T3 usually strikes me as scummy but feels towny, I think I'm gonna lean into that for now. I'm going with my gut to lean Marci into scum.

Hockey's play is weird but I like T3's read on it so I'm inclined to agree that Hockey feels town for now

I'm never gonna feel confident in a read on Luke, so he will probably spend most of the game in null for me but I have to put him as town for now, I don't think he's the move for today at any rate.

Then there's you (Hectic), who I think I'm towny on, but I'll have a better idea once I have some words from you to work with.

There I think I've done everybody, this is usually the point where people start scumreading me pretty hard.

Disclaimer on the above:
The fact that there's 4 scum out there really has me doubting everything I'm thinking about this game, as I know that half the players are full of fuckery

[Pavowski]

Lukewarm likely town for:

-Being aware Not_Mafia actually has good reads, yet picking him to be the gun bearer nonetheless.

Is this what you meant to write? Town!Luke could not have given NM the gun, only Scum!Luke could have

[Hectic]

That should say:

-If scum, he'd have to be aware that Not_Mafia actually has good reads, yet pick him to be the gun bearer nonetheless.

Ergo I don't think scum!Luke gives him the gun

[Hectic]

Your T3-not-used-to-him-being-towny thoughts and lines like make me want to lean town on you

[Hectic]

Anyways, it feel like marci is the best shot here.

181 expressed liking Art and their point about Luke. It implies liking the point means some kind of agreement with it, in most cases

However, when Luke calls her out on it, she backpedals in 188, saying she only liked Art

having

the thought, and she's not sure if she agrees with it, which is a little more convoluted, and possibly her changing her stance since she knows Luke would see through agreeing with it

Since then, she's almost seemed a little afraid to express many reads/thoughts. The only one being in 321 where she says she's scumreading Enchant but doesn't elaborate

I don't think Luke is scum with marci for their interactions, and I don't think Hockey is scum with marci for 204/216/226. So, if correct, it'd be a very valuable flip

But we have tiiiimeee, so marci, if you're not scum, give us a power star; talk about your reads etc

[Lukewarm]

Hectic has repped in, if you need help catching up, just let me know

There is alike, a site rule about speculating about rep ins, but I am going to assume that they don't apply here, so let the speculation commence

?? Hectic is Art's alt, not really a rep-in?

[Hectic]

Yeah, can I get a tldr of a tldr pls Lukewarm

[Toogeloo]

Is that toog read based on meta, Art? Which posts?

He's voiced exactly 1 townread and 0 scumreads this game so far. He doesn't seem to care much about the popcorn vender having the right information to shoot scum, not interested in expressing who he thinks they should shoot etc

This is a game for heroes. Scum have equal opportunity to sway the gun holder's opinion. Voting means nothing and the majority really have no sway. I'm treating this game like a variation of Bad Idea, but more as an exercise in letting the gun holder test their own ability to read slots.

I have exactly 3 people I would shoot. Those three people have been expressed as people that other players would shoot as well. I don't need to voice my opinion on who they are unless I have the gun.

[Lukewarm]

I think that the rep in makes hectic town.

I don't really think that there is a reason for scum!art to make the switch right now.

He was in no danger of being shot, and his art posts made it hard to read him, but in a way that you could not say was ai, because it was just the alt gimmick doing it.

So, maybe he would do it if his buddies were in danger, but I scrolled back to see who he might be saving, and I think marci scum reads were the most recent development happening in the thread, so the fact that she is the one he is pushing takes messes with that idea as well

[Hectic]

Most likely. I'm going to take the full day and shoot based on votes, as if it were a launch.

This doesn't change your stance there, Toog?

[Vulture]

Hum.
