Lol. Also, confession. I just found the quote button in the topic review section. I literally never made quote walls because I didn’t realize I could do that and thought people were putting in an insane amount of unwieldy effort. I’ve been here for years. :cry:

What was your rationale for not claiming this at the start of the game?

In post 489, Lukewarm wrote:To be frank, that point by DV and your follow up point feel alienated from what has been bothering me about DV.

To answer the questions asked of me:
No, I do not disagree with that sentence, but I am not sure what part of that sentence is even supposed to sway my read on them since it is not rooted in the same thing that bothered me.
maybe this is where the disconnect is. I don't really grasp why you're bothered by . You say you're bothered because he wasn't trying to sort OTH, but I have been trying to tell you that I don't think he was trying to sort OTH during that post sequence (or that he necessarily needs to at all), I think he was trying to suss out
your
reasoning in calling them a scumread, and you seem to want to wholly discount that.

In post 491, Lukewarm wrote:GL, you keep saying that you are trying to genuinely engage with me, but it feels like you are approaching me specifically with the goal of getting me to change my mind. I feel like I have pretty clearly outlined what pinged me about their posts, and you are just coming back with "well, it is possible for those posts to come from town too," but it is pretty rare to look at a post and say "that would actually never come from town ever."

And like, who do you even want me to pivot towards? To be real, the easiest way to get my vote to move is to find something scummier and point at it loudly., but I am not getting that.

I feel like you just keep repeatedly telling me that there is a town way to read their posts, and then slowly dropping your read on me because that does not change my read. But, I never said that there was zero chance that town wrote those posts. I said that I find it more likely that a scum mindset leads to those posts then a town mindset.

And I really really can't tell if this is Scum!you trying to push people away from a partner or if you really go this hard to defend a town read day 1 like this or if you are actually informed that DV is town in some way, and that knowledge is keeping you from even considering the things that worry me about DV
this is fair, I think I've just been rabbit holed a bit trying to figure out the degree to which you actually believe DV is scum, cause I just don't see it at all. If I'm mistaking you for being more confident than you are / combined with you doubling down that these are actually good reasons to suspect him, then probably there's not much further to go on this line of conversation.

I'm not at the point where I'm ready to pound the table for my particular wagon yet, I think Skybird is a good vote right now (I fully vibe with DV's read on her in ), but I'm still at a stage where I'd rather wait and see where people go of their own accord rather than start trying to corral votes onto my choice. but in general I think it's good play to go to bat for your townreads (as long as you give that player space to defend themselves first). If I'm not cool with someone's vote I'm going to want them to explain it to the fullest degree possible until I'm satisfied I can get where they're coming from
