Shortly after, Pentagon states he didn't like Diamond, which is why I considered Pentagon a good spot to pair with.

I haven't really been trying to scum hunt, so much as figure out who would be my ideal partner.
I think this post pretty much never comes from scum.
Orange, THIS post.
Ok. I get it now. Red being a townread, means that I have everybody but Triangle as townreads which is impossible. I still need to figure out which one of my townreads is scum.

When you speak English and actually stop misrepping my posts, let me know.
I think that Triangle did for one post or so. I do find Triangle becoming a scumlean for strange reasoining, using symbols as a means for justifying their scumread on you and Star. Next thing will be that Green is Town and Red is Mafia, if that faulty reasoning persists. I highly doubt most of Triangle's reads are going to end up actually using proper logic like using Posts and stuff.

And Triangle, don't take this badly. I am not asking you to be like Yellow, but avoid using people's names and avatars as reasons why they are scum.

By the way, it's been a whole day since Green last posted. Hopefully, he's fine. I would still like to hear from him.

Can someone go over why purple seems to be a consensus townread, I've seen a lot of "purple is town" but I haven't seen why. I have seen a lot of effort but that isn't completely AI.

As far as I can tell Triangle this game has made basically one point which is a really odd roundabout TMI accusation on penta.

Still don't really understand Penta's 180 on me, but others seem to believe the logic holds and its right so I guess it can be left be.

I hope Triangle's joking though. I find their reasoining too idiosyncratic to be taken seriously.

I am a bit confused too on why almost everybody townreads me. Apparently, I'm too clueless to be scum. I guess you're kind of right that I could be doing the exact same things that I've done as both Town and scum. I guess that Pentagon liked your posts or at least your slot's posts. To be fair, do you think that scum might fake a scumread on their partners? Like do a 'aha I found two of the scum and this other guy is also scum', sort of thing? Just some food for thought. You know, would scum do some WIFOM?

Way too early readlist:


TR: Circle Arrow Yellow Orange Pentagon
TL: Red Triangle
Null: Heart Green
SR: Purple Star Diamond

I want to be wrong on Purple, I think I might be somewhat confbiased against him but most people think he's town so I don't think it will matter much.

I'd actually like pairing with Diamond despite thinking he's suspicious because he sounds like a fun guy and I have a weakness for bad boys.

I'd say there is rarely a case where scum doesn't bus their partners, maybe not to the point of elimination but somewhat at least.

Reading through ISOs, not impressed with orange's posts, Purple/Penta's is fine enough that I'd prefer them alive at EoD.



As for the last post of my predessor, I probably wouldn't consider it a towntell if it was on another person, especially if I was already scumreading them but that's probably just playstyle difference.

The reason I have Star/Diamond as SRs is because I got whiplash reading through Diamond's ISO:



Diamond calls out Star for volunteering and taking it backsies - he calls it a bit-LAMISTY

Later however:



He more or less makes the same kind of LAMisty appeal.

I do think it's possible he is just fustrated town who feels like he is being frozen out - but the game has barely been running for 2? days so I'm not sure that's something that's genuine.

It feels to me that the game state is still wide open and I think people are happy to mingle and talk - we've only paired 2 players so far.

I guess I think if he's town I just want to give him a big hug.

Maybe even if he's scum I would too? I am a sucker for AtE.

Reading Star's ISO

it just feels like there's not a lot there?

The questions he asks don't feel particularly relevant and I'm not sure where he is going with them.

The comments are just somewhat flat.

The things that he's most interested in is his mech plan for how to deal with the delayer that he talks about in:



and




I find people who have more enthusiasm for mech rather than sorting to be somewhat scummier.

I didn't like: "Best case scenario however is that today we find at least one scum that is a Shape, make them go solo, and then vote them out to get rid of scum and the Delayer at the same time."

because it kind of states the obvious but I don't see him actually putting the effort in to sort his fellow shapes and come up with an ideal candidate for this.

Star/Heart need to give more thoughts on the game as a whole, most of their ISo's focus on Mech
I like diamond for town atm, though that may just be from AtE, I'll sleep on it

I don't think I ever want penta gone today so:

Haven't gone through blue's ISO yet and I'm not going to tonight but their analysis of the Star ISO mirrors my own.

That said, I need some sleep, cheers!

I am super easily swayed by AtE too. Almost, every time, I end up misreading people due to AtE. It's usually for my reads on players who didn't do AtE. I once unvoted scum after calling them out for AtE, changing my mind, when they did AtE again. I kind of wonder why almost nobody does LAMISS (Look At Me I'm So Scummy).

Now, I regret not townreading Diamond as early as I townread Star. To be fair, I'm not sure if I townread Star as much as I did.

Spoiler: embarrassing confession don't click on this unless you are mafia
I kind of want to pair with scum and get hopelessly pocketed because that seems like something fun to do and I've never done that before.

Yes it's Friday night and I'm just lonely and cold haha.

I promise I won't get paranoid too soon!

I am very susceptible to nice music and sweet talk

Oh I agree. On Red. Blue is definitely a townread for me as well as Arrow and Green.
No red is locktown for me now.
pentagon probably town here although i dont think i agree

early reads from red had an element of showiness to them

Also if you townread people who took issue with your entrance, did you make your entrance deliberately scummy on purpose? I'm confused about your thought process there.
I was trying to see how people react to lurking and other obvious scumtells. I dod have a scumlean which became a null read. To be fair, you can see for my one ephemeral scumlean. I immediately ended up rereading and found nothing scummy and thus lost my scumread.

Also I still nullread Triangle. Triangle does seem to be deliberately writing in a way which I find unreadable. (That being said, this could be a playstyle thing.)
Triangle gives me tstbs vibes but could be, just seems too godawful to be scum, since scum usually at least try to come up with decent reads but if noob scum, then obviously the jury would still be out on that.
triangle obviously doing a gimmick

pushing the limits of readability

I think that in , you mentioned that you "may be happiest pairing with a null read who i can try to sort in private". You don't seem to have vocalised a townread for Orange, so if you didn't already have her sorted, you can do what you suggested beforehand. Though, I do townread both of you. Actually, I'll just
UNPAIR
for now, in case I want to pair with Diamond (or Pentagon, though Red wants to be with them).
