it feels like you are doing your best to LOOK transparent and open, but it comes off looking kinda self-conscious and artificial. but it's also hard to know of that's just who you are, bc I also got those vibes at the start when i was townreading you

alright scorpius is at least willing to cooperate and the scorpius slot is cool in my book. I think the rep in for Eyes should fill out the questionnaire as well. Im going to look over Scorpius answers now.
Bruce: Terry. I've been thinking about something you once told me... and you were wrong. It's not Batman that makes you worthwhile; it's the other way around. Never tell yourself anything different.
Terry: ...Thanks.

i mean, the argument that there is more town than scum motivation to do what you did is nice and all, but like, i don't *really* buy it? because my problem isn't with the fact that you voted monkey while he was a townlean for you for the sake of the gamestate, that's not a "wacky radical action that would be such a risk to take as scum" like you're making it out to be. my issue is that your followups didn't seem like those of a townie who decided to do that action. i get that this is a fast and spammy game. but i'd still expect more from someone who voted a wagon whose target they didn't agree with.
In post 2294, Yeet wrote:What issues do you have with my skitter progression now?
mostly with the fact that it's, uh, nonexistent. if i'm going by the reasons mentioned in - the first one, that she's underwhelming, is eyebrows-raising to me because you never actually mentioned any of that, even when nero was trying to build a wagon/pressure there, so it seems like retconing your read on her that you didn't really have. the ping tell and seeing other people vote there is... okay, i guess? the bigger problem i have is that i don't see a clean trajectory to back that vote up with.
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.”

also fwiw on skitter i am not very convinced by the ping thing, was mostly just looking it up for fun to see if math was at all right about it. for me the sus of skitter was more of a ~vibes~ thing (some of the reads felt constructed), and then after thinking on if some i decided a) there's no point pressuring her while she's away since she can't respond, and b) if she is town, she's gonna be a lot more useful to have around day 2 than certain other people who aren't doing anything. and in my mind it's not much more likely she's scum than wu anyway

Yes, I am trying to be open and transparent. Yes, I'm a little self-conscious since I'm getting flak. Artificial is a bolder claim that I would need you to expand upon if you want to push that.

I don't think it was necessary, and debating that point was to some degree why Math ballooned the page count yesterday. It took a lot of effort to get that to stop and it kind of feels like you're trying to prod math so the game becomes harder to read/distracted again.

That was not the intention, and I didn't read much of that tbh.

So it's a bad trajectory because I voted first and then explained the vote after? If I explained the read before voting is that suddenly an okay trajectory now...??

I may need a break from this game. Datisi I know I am taking a bit of my frustration out on you and I'm sorry because I feel like you are one of the voting who is actually engaging with and elaborating for me.

Anyhow, what is your read on skitter?
did i, completely accidentally, plagiarize someone?

i don't think it's changed much since i posted the triangle. i started requestioning my read on her because i know she can be really paranoid about my early game and think she's seeing scumtisi for the most bs reasons possible. and i also thought how it was odd she was cooling off from me when (iirc) my wagon was actively growing, actually? it felt like a weird and counter-productive time to start white-knighting me if she's scum. other than that, i've kinda tuned her out and don't feel a strong swing one way or the other.

To be clear, you actively think it's more likely that I am scum lying about this rather than town telling the truth?

Do you have any insight to add to HEM's concerns or do you pretty much stand exactly with what he said?

+2 from me on wanting to see a reads list from Fire. I'm still reviewing Scorpius answer to my questionnaire, there is a lot of content written there it's taking a while.

Pedit:

Fire I think the readlist incorporates spatial elements which is helpful especially for some players like me

no, it's not about when you explained the vote. it's about how your explanation claims that you were scumreading her play earlier on, but there is no evidence of that in your iso. coupled with the fact that there was actual opportunity for you to express that read (when nero was pushing her), it doesn't feel true.

I don’t like when someone posts a requested read list.

If it’s an “assignment” it will never be %100 genuine.

And it always seems like the request or is looking for someone else to give them a foothold on more content.

Asking for one always pings me.
"Would you like to know more?"
