uhm. you posted the original thing in the section of your readslist that was describing your townread of me. you linked post 103, which is me responding to implo and asking why he's townreading me and vp.In post 239, imaginality wrote:

yeah, imaginality mixed up implo and vp. i'm already suspicious of imaginality for his very weird read on vp. so i think scum is more likely to mix up two people if they're of same alignment. and the imaginality's read of vp slightly smells like s/s, so.... here we are.In post 240, Lukewarm wrote:Filtering back through to find what made you think this, in 103 Implosion expressed a town read on VP and Tanner.

hm. in my experience, such early readslists are more often called scummy because they're ~performative~. so it feels a bit ??? to see that actually being townread? anything in them strike you as hard to fake?In post 246, VP Baltar wrote:He's most out there with reads.

This reads like a fever dream. I cannot imagine ari/Tanner is s/s.In post 249, imaginality wrote:As for why Ari/Tanner potentially being S/S, consider that my own tinfoil theory.
Basically that the whole "we wanna go in the same location" thing could be aimed at making town wary of letting you go in the same location. So you end up in different locations. Or if you do both end up in keep and have to swap one of you, you use it as a point to argue that you/Ari are being swapped so Ari won't vote you.
I don't know how likely it is but I do disagree with people who are saying it's too limiting for S/S to play like that.
That said it could be S/T with her wanting to buddy you. I think in that scenario they'd still nightswap you if you end up in same location so she doesn't have to vote you. But I could see that leading to you and others strengthening your townreads on her. Whereas again I see her play even if you're town as a perfectly viable scum tactic.
Whereas I don't know if Ari as town would be willing to risk the game on voting for you as an unknown alignment.
This also sounds insane.In post 253, Tanner wrote:

You think imaginality couldn't remember the name of his potential scum buddy? That just doesn't make sense as a goof scum would make when, presumably, they are interacting with their buddies in day chat more than anyone. Right?
Seems fair to call out imaginality's explanation as convoluted (I can barely follow it), but to think the mixup would be scum scum seems to not make sense to me.
pedit @ Tanner -- it's not that it's hard to fake. it's more to the point you're making. I often see early reads lists get criticized, so that's why I'm saying it's more risky as scum. Anyhow, I am NOT saying I'm absolutely town reading imaginality here. Just saying it seemed +transparency early in the game that was likely to draw heat...which is not necessarily something scum are motivated to do.YOUR AD HERE- VP Baltar

i mean, all i'm doing is making an assumption that, if scum were to mix up two people, those two people are more likely to be of same alignment. and i don't like the interactions between you two. so. 2+2. is 5 probably because i'm bad at this game but you get the idea.In post 256, VP Baltar wrote:Seems fair to call out imaginality's explanation as convoluted (I can barely follow it), but to think the mixup would be scum scum seems to not make sense to me.
i like how you think that scum!me would care enough to powerwolf and push through certain locations because...? i'm that afraid that my buddies and i will get locked in the same one? at the time where most of the game is going "uh idk i don't care where i go hehe" and they can do the things themselves? i'm taking it as a compliment.In post 257, VP Baltar wrote:

actually, i'm not even sure if i find baltar scummy anymore in the grand scheme of things. except for the interactions with imaginality. that makes me want to start drinking again.

Yes.In post 229, Tanner wrote:what "questionable" comment, the one where i apparently shaded people for doing the exact same thing i am doing?
It's not about the confidence level. It just seems like a terrible solve. I know I'm town, so I know you're wrong there. Implosion looks fairly town in approach based upon the scum PT in the other game. So that's at least 2/3 that look like bad solves to me. What can I say, I have higher expectations from you.why does it seem like you think i am so insanely confident in that solve? like. it was one (1) post that made me think that the three of you might be buddies. none of you have any preference between minigames, and nobody has any ideas on how to assign the rest of us. we can test my theory - if i'm right, town wins. if i'm wrong, nothing is lost. i don't have to be insanely confident in that being the correct solve to realize there is no harm in test it?

Given the keep is set, I'd like to put my strongest town read there.In post 269, Tanner wrote:oooh, spicy. any reasons for those? who goes to which one?
I'm also abiding by your request because that doesn't bother me, and if you're town maybe it will help you.
And then it is just separating the low content slots of number and Darby. Obv if I put you with my group, it is kind of a fun twist on your request, but may not be good trying to sort two low info slots in the same game. (Though as I'm typing this, I'm thinking 'sorting two in one game means maybe you'll only lose one game!')
As far as who goes to what game, I don't have strong feelings, but maybe Gate, keep, tower in that order?YOUR AD HERE- Tanner
