hi taly! can you explain your thoughts on pooky a bit better? i don't understand what you're saying in that paragraph

or you could give a spicy gut take about someone you haven't played with

i think you're towny but the last wall felt a little like your walls in student council, so it made me doubt my read a bit.

I'm trying to decide how genuine
Pooky's
trust in me is, especially that he has since made a solve and I'm merely dipping my toes into reading this game.

I want to lean in and townread but there's a lot that can be interpreted from his posts and potential motives.

There doesn't seem to be much in favor of people wanting to vote town for the electric chair, which perplexes the fuck out of me that
Prism
has as many votes as they do.

Prism's
tilt didn't feel genuine at first glance. Not meaning to invalidate any of their sincere feelings, but they've come across as
"I'm gunning for x, but I won't explain y and z to you."
But this is likely playstyles clashing. It's giving me
kittybell
!scum powerwolf/openwolf flashbacks.

If I had tried to sway them from self-wagoning, I wonder how different would've looked. Despite my critiques, I currently think they're likelier town, so the wagon doubly vexes me.

I want
Ulyana
to come in and give non-setup takes before I give an opinion.

Peta's
not caught my eye much, tbh.

That's fair. I'm arguably at my weakest in large themes, but this is a dumb excuse.

The best way for you to solve me here is to continually pick my brain as you are now - that'll wake me up, or at least someone else.

This does little to help me understand your slot, my next thing to consider is whether this is a deflection or you're signaling me to look deeper.

I encourage to continue asking me questions (and the same for others) :D That does wonders for my engagement.

I believe you're referring to my reaction to you. "Not trying to sway me" meant not trying to sway me you were town, not that you were trying to sway me to take any specific action. If you're referring to my presented motivation regarding wanting either unilateral action or out of the game entirely, I previously forced exactly that scenario on page 1 out of tilt, and later voted to concede the same game as town. I have alluded to similar as town.

My reacting with sheer disgust at bad reasoning and play is not an attractive quality of mine but is nothing new.

You might also remember Scumsman, which I similarly abandoned as scum because the town was not worth playing against.

Upon some thought, I don't like
Gamma
or
Ydrasse
in that interaction.

Gamma
supports
Pooky's
scumreads, and while that's the basis of
"
Pooky
reads are too good to be true"
, but why does he go after
Pooky
and not the solve that he agrees with, first? Meaning, why doubtcast 3 players only to say the 4th is supposedly the person who prompted this?

Peta
being like
"oh, that makes sense"
is also weird, lmao, especially since his vote is still on
Cakez
which I presume is serious.

But then again, why does
Ydrasse
sus a partner with almost no prompt?

Actually, why doesn't
Ydrasse
point a finger at
Pooky
for a solve that would be so opposed to her viewpoint of the game? So I can see the
"gotcha"
argument, but like the pressure she places on
Gamma
.

so you don't like me for voicing the exact thoughts you said here ??????? because that's more or less what i'm doing, let alone getting gamma to the point where he admits *why* he scumreads me/prism/peta

i don't care about what pooky says early game throwing out a solve like that and he probably knows that (ily pooky soryr)

better, that'll improve my perception of where her head is at.

And yeah, honestly, I'm finding more reasons to townread

than not currently. But I'm looking forward to their follow-up on that plot thread.

Gotta go! See ya's!
