I will straight up disregard all reason if you have a PR dream again. You can come back and be like, “I dreamt that Locke is a N2 Bulletproof Multitasking Cop and Self-Targeting Doctor,” and I will go, “Okay, Locke kill it is then.”

You're probably right, it still left a bad feeling in my mouth tho

Sorry that I am living in the past, I see literally everyone and their mother thought the same about that Andante post lmao
I still think its a tmi-ish read and that midway had not done enuf for the level of conviction catboi had abt it

Also i feel p good abt faker-town, i just want to say that
omghi2u2

I mean, w/r/t midwaybear it's an early game gutread, that's just something I do, it is always subject to revision later if it doesn't hold up

In post 1206, Datisi wrote:pedit: oh good timing, why is faker town?
- kinda like the reflective nature of his posting, abt himself, what he's trying to do with this accf, the fact that he's trying to puzzle solve this game and take it easy instead of win (for some reason, when i read that it struck me as +town)
- doesnt feel informed (i.e. he's behind but doenst feel like he somehow knows what's going on anyways from reading a scum pt, which i feel like he would prioritize readinf over this thread)
- kinda just how he's approaching the game when he is here, and how he *wants* to approach the game despite being busy traveling
- the way he's approaching catboi's read on him

Overall its like almost less abt his content and more abt his feelings towards the game and how he's approaching the game overall

Caveat: i do not believe i have seen scum-faker ever but idk all of this based on the here and now feels townie to me
I don't find any of that particularly meaningful at all besides the fisrt point and that's very slight

and if anything I felt like he backed down from me a little too easy but maybe he's feeling merciful

The hilarious part is that the reflective stepback has been a scum staple dating back to my first games on site in 2016

It was more the nature of "I'd like to take this game "off" in a sense" that I likedb/c I get the attitude of just wanting to play laid back for a change, which is something I can only ever do as town

I can but I don’t rly want to/feel the need to

it’s a tonal read so putting real words to it will require more effort than usual and I’m fine with where my read here is for d1

Seems legit. What game was that, btw? I haven't played against scum-Cakez in a
long
time.
Warehouse 13 - you don't have to read it but him trying to fight pooky that game is extremely funny

I did notice that flow went from 100+ posts two days ago to 1 post yesterday, but I thought it was probably because flow was busy. Also, I think scum would be more self-conscious about that activity drop? I don't really think scum allows themselves to make that big of a drop without explanation.
I still don't really townread Cakez. I saw the point that he doesn't go after Pooky immediately after getting burned which does make sense, but nothing else he has done has really pushed me one way or another. Looking at the games I played with Cakez, it seems like I can't read him well from the normal things I do to read people so maybe that point about Pooky is something I should consider more.
Also, I thought Andante saying "yet" wrt Datisi read was fine. I don't think that scum actually say "yet" to set up a push on a townread later on.
pedit: Warehouse 13 was a long time ago...

A year is not a long time when you're a boomer like me. I'm probably forgetting one, but the only time I can remember having played with scum-Cakez was 2016. I remember that game because it was the first time I ever townread him :lol:

I feel like I've finally gotten a handle on reading him, using the very handy heuristic "if Cakez feels like he can't possibly be town, then he probably is", but I won't know how accurate that is until I play against scum-him.

Right, I was in that too, but I think I wasn't really counting it because I left reading Cakez to lilith.

I read up and don't actually know what I want to do with my vote right now, which is A Problem

feel like I need to settle down and actually
think
about my reads now which is the part i hate doing


as an aside I feel like flow trap will be readable given enough time, where "enough" is a larger quantity of time than has currently elapsed
