wheme, real talk, do you actually feel like the wagon on you can't give you any info? I know there hasn't been a lot of discussion around it but it should also be the one wagon you know for sure is on town and something you can engage with directly (instead of lawyering on another player's behalf, or waiting for them to explain themselves).

I also don't like the inconsistency between complaining about lack of info/reads and saying you are going to play lazy / accusing others of being lazy, and I'd appreciate it if you efforted harder cause right now you're basically just acting as a lightning rod for everyone to vote without much consequence

Don't want an early hammer, and my initial vote on this slot was a joke vote.
what's your current read on Wheme

I realllyyyy don't like that you unvoted without voting elsewhere, all that does is kill pressure/momentum on wheme. especially given you're not chasing another scumread instead, by not voting you're failing to generate any information

I don't really vibe with this, I feel that quite frequently as town I can look at a post like and send that I can understand what the person's reason for voting is. at the very least, you can assume the argument is "this post is a scum post" and agree/disagree with that

Let’s say I’m 109% town. What votes do you think give information when it comes to other people? I racked up a lot of naked votes fast that can come from either alignment so not much to be learned there IMO

No I agree there's not a ton that can
currently
be learned, but my point is rather you could be trying instead of just complaining about it. like Bowser left their vote on you for quite a long time and just moved off you to DV, we could be asking them about that and if their read on you has developed at all

because I am fully aware that nothing is stopping me from also asking Bowser that question about their Wheme read, so if I had said "you" alone I'd feel like a hypocrite even though I really just want Wheme to do the work of interrogating his own wagon since idk if he's town or not

I don't really vibe with the spirit of your question, like do you think if I were scum I'd be more/less likely to say "we"? kinda feels like a semantic nitpick, but at the same time I've seen you do this in both our recent past games together so I get that it's just your style

I could probably join a Bowser wagon, I like the main voters on it and I feel Bowser's reasoning on DV is convoluted in an uncomfortable way

I asked because it just seemed like interesting word choice, not exactly scummy but worth poking. Your response was pretty good though, I think (though I'm skeptical of your play so far in general)
