WhemeStar, looking through your iso doesn't give me many reasons not to vote you. Do you have any reads besides getting scum pings from Pavo?

LLD, what does it mean that you voted Bowser Jr. Three posts in a row? This is probably a rhetorical question since it looks like LLD has a post restriction.

VOTE: Bowser Jr

I have greater confidence in my scumread on COF but I don't have any real reasons to townread Bowser Jr and this wagon is better than the Wheme wagon

I have been getting bad vibes from several of DV's posts, including that one about LLD that Bowser called out. Just waiting for them to respond ATM.

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
Wheme could go either way imo, he's posting a fair amount given the standards of this game but it feels like he's not really saying much. The only really interesting thing in his iso is the fact that he says has a post restriction, first with no prompting and second in response to LLD clearly having a severe one. I'd be interested in what it actually is, since he can clearly still post, talk, and vote normally, and everybody this day has a soft post restriction so I doubt it'd be the same thing for him of "can't post more than x times". If he had just mentioned it after LLD's came up I'd say it's more likely to be a lie and he's crumbing to get his wagon off, but he did claim it in one of his first posts so I'm more inclined to give the benefit of the doubt.

I'm not super big on his wagon since it's pretty much all naked votes with no reasoning or attempt to engage him, so it feels like we're really not getting anything out of it right now even though he's got a lot of votes on him. I'm not super secure on Wheme being town but I also don't like the wagon on him since it feels lazy, which doesn't seem town motivated to me.

Gonna reread some isos, be back later.

She can correct me but this isn’t a post restriction. It’s how she will be playing the game, and she’s not going to change it. She will answer yes/no questions.

@lld

Is this Rhea playing?

If yes, should we expect the same avenues of communication that we saw in Bloodstained?

If no, is this a mod made posting restriction?

@Tamora's Angel: could you tell me a little about why you aren't scum this game?

I'm stuck between Pavowski chatty town and Pavowski chatty scum* this is an invitation for you to help me differentiate between your scum and town games Pavowski.

@Notty, sure. Tell me a little bit about why you're a wet towel this game.
In regards to Spiffy's forced vote on DV, I give him a pass because it's RVS, so it's gunna come off as forced because, like, it is.

This is interesting, how does this work? does the mod just say you have a post restriction? I'm not sure it's terribly relevant since you're pretty upfront about this part but it wouldn't hurt to confirm it. Unless it would.
In which case don't.

because I’m scum


I’m still solving and developing reads, just behind the scenes atm. I agree with spiffys list, plus a few extra. We disagreed one another person (over the same post actually)

I don't really know how to answer that, ice. I've only been scum in one or two legit games onsite and I think I obvscummed pretty hard back then, but Luke might be a better judge of that.

Also I've been excited for this theme game so I was determined to have fun here no matter what I drew.

I always sus people who early claim that they drew town, so I won't do that, I'll just say that I find it a lot easier to post when I'm town. But I think that goes for anybody probably?

For the most part, I think that's true Pavowski. Hum. That's a decent answer. I kind of thought you'd played a lot of games and you're an alt. Is that not the case?

Let's say you're not obvscum, Notty. Let's do this exercise. Oh hey look there, there's a speeding bullet called commitment, I better get inside. It looks difficult to be that sucker who has opinions about things.

I'd say COF and Skybird has scum in it.
Maybe. The DV vote is forced, but I don't think putting attention there is bad necessarily. 3rd vote best vote.
