Okay how
I dont know exactly
- sleepless vote felt like weird timing (even tho you made a fair point), like its weird to vote someone based on p2 while you're still catching up on several more pages
- midway tr also feels off (and tbh if anything that feels tmi to me)
- not sure i like the flow trap vote. Like i get why you think they might be just spamming but i'm not sure i get that vibe
- i dont like your take on my dats read but i will admit i might just be annoyed by this one

None of these things are inherently bad or damning but the cumulative picture just feels kinda off

Shrug, I read linearly and reacted to stuff as I was catching up. That's...basically normal as far as I know? Why would you actually have a problem with that? I find mwb fairly readable and in fact think he's probably one of the more towny people in the game. I find like basically nothing flow trap has posted to be town indicative and the signal to nose ratio there is incredibly low. My reaction to that Datisi read was only, like, half-serious, I'm not pushing you over it

For the first point - well, you obviously didnt know what happened between p2 and whatever page we were on at the time when you voted, and i feel like most people finish reading and then choose to vote?

Like i'm not objecting to the notion of reading lineraly obviously, i'm objecting ti the timing of the vote given the context of everything else that was happening

And for the rest - meh. Idk the strength of the midway read seems a little too strong given what they've posted thus far

But maybe i should outsource this read on u to faker

We have draft info too

We can read into this kind of stuff and share what we all put in for the draft etc and unravel the whole auction

It’s not completely dumb
See, here's what I don't like, your 27th post in this game was "how bad is a massclaim" after about 20 posts of "let me defend why I picked the number I picked" like, something feels VERY off here, and I think the simple answer is just, you're not town. Like, you asked about massclaim, jumped straight into making "reads". Something feels very off.
oh yeah it was this post

this seemed a bit too effort-y for scum who's faking reads early
That is reasonable, probably more nuance than she has in her scum game
ok, you already have me as a sr? you don't have to tr me, but like, a sr??
I was not implying I scumread you

Noticing while ISOing Andante that I missed from flow trap (because I don't click spoilers) which would at least count as something in the way of "signal", but I still don't really like it as it looks more like someone going back and pulling up posts and trying to manufacture reasons for them being town - none of that stuff strikes me as particularly towny? It's just iv joking around.

My actual thoughts on Andante which was the reason I was doing this: Had almost wanted to declare her town for being thoughtless about her number choice, which felt real, but the second thought I had was that not every configuration of players is going to produce a tryhard scumteam that plans for the draft (see last PYP), so not particularly a towntell, most of her posts are null, does feel like the way she's harping on the iv scum read feels kind of real though I don't agree with the reasoning at all, I like the comment about revisiting her read in , fine enough for now

I’m not impressed with mwb yet although I wouldn’t call it a scumread exactly

i think he can be totally obvtown as town and I think they are very capable of posting fake analysis as scum for a bit like in the early posts that get a couple townleans from people

I think if scum were to double up, it would be on a low number (like 1). Also doubling up hurts your chance at getting a good role, but also makes people think you aren’t wolves together. If Datisi and Pooky are wolf, I think they might give that a shot. I don’t think the other pairings do that. I don’t scumread either of them though. It’s more of an observation. But also scum chose multitasking which seems better when scum actually have roles to work with, so…
I just wanted to say

if Datisi and I were scum together

We would definitely have a 20 page argument in the scum PT about who gets to be #1

and then both pick it.

It's kind of a shame this didn't happen this game tho.
