@klick, can you talk to me about the top and bottom two on that list? I don't feel like I've gotten enough from ceph or pp to read them, my read keeps flipping in frogsterking every post they make, and similar Ish with CSF. The rest are town thoiugh, hard agree.

Ceph's reaction to pressure was towny - in particular, I liked where he was like 'don't take my Town PM away', his feelings around that feel genuine and I don't think it's the route he'd take as scum.

Penguin's annoyance with OTH looks like genuinely annoyed town.

Frogster's probably my strongest townread? He's solving. He's got nuanced takes and a point of view that's shifting as he gets new info. I think his intention is to find out who the scum are and I don't feel like he's got much else on the mind.

CSF is kind of a gut read, I like how she's engaging with the thread. Might have better words for it later.

Why do you townread Pooky?

Frogster's obviously scum but can we pretend we don't know that for the next 4 days to get some more info out of him before we inevitably feed him to the polar bears?

Honestly this? It's silly, it made Me laugh and it vibes with where I was at the time? They also seem to be sounding a bunch of people out and feel confident in a way that seems townie.

[Bellaphant]

Like I'm giving Roden a pass for today for his spoiler for similar reasons.

I can see the ceph thing but think their first interactions with you/rad was weak. Pp I'm not convinced on.

[Bellaphant]

okay, and being keen on the gamestate early vs, later on is scummy how?
Also I brought up the frogster thing because and marci were both like "lol we're getting SR for READING"

Because. As. The. Game. Moves. Foward. More. Information. Comes. To. Light. And. It. Makes. Sense. For. People. To. "Be Keen." On. The. Gamestate. Later. On. While. That. Information. Does. Not. Exist. In. The. Early. Game. To. Uninformed. Players.

@klick, do you mean this?

[Klick]

I can argue that this is showing a higher awareness of the gamestate which can be viewed as cautious/scummy.

Wait, so having a strong understanding of what's happened so far in the game is SCUMMY to you? lol

Is this a common belief?

Having a good understanding of the game state this early on points to informed knowledge. yes - that's weird.

okay cool, I'll only skim and take in the bare minimum needed to process what's going on

~GE

Yes, that

Why do you townread Pooky?

Not sure I agree with this. A lot of his posts have mostly felt like early gut-reads scum could easily feign. His push on Off The Hook was pretty meh and his push on Lukewarm barely lasted a post before he basically said he feels Lukewarm is town anyway. Maybe I'm reading the slot wrong but not getting town vibes from Frogster at all right now.

STD said signatures don't count.

What a fake post restriction if I've ever saw one.

I think your read on me looks manufactured and I think calling luke v rad and dunnstral town are pretty safe takes.

You seem different from previous games I've played with you where you were town.

I guess I should be weary that you have a tendency to be limbait and we could be TvT.

Pooky
Penguin
Dunnstral
The toad
Luke
Rad
Tbone
CSF

I think are all Town.

I'm skeptical of Malcolm, Off the Hook and Bellaphant so far.

[Bellaphant]

Hiya, I'm low access at the moment, but If you could chuck a couple of questions/thoughts at me, that'd be great: as I said, I'm struggling to get a firm read in you too.

My read is perfectly natural, I think there's a decent chance you could be scum and I outlined why.

There's nothing wrong with a "safe" take if it's what I believe - as town I've looked at the exchanges between both and I don't think either of them look like scum right now.

What are you struggling with specifically?

Can you post your reads so far?

[Off The Hook]

Hwat

Why?

From when I hydra’d with her, it helps her read the game easier

Don’t expect much direct content from me today btw

IDK, I have a hard time buying what you're putting out right now. Why have you not responded to Bell or Enchant?

[Lukewarm]

I claim being in a PT with another player though

Hm.

I did not really plan on claiming, but I am also in a neighborhood with another player, and it is not Toog.

I am realizing that without flips showing that Me, my neighbor, Toog, or Toog's neighbor flipping as neighbors that it will actually be kinda messy for someone to claim it after the death of their neighbor.

[Lukewarm]

You can't townread anyone until you townread yourself

that's some deep shit Johnny

[Lukewarm]

Malcolm, what's up?
How are you? Are you still getting eliminated every day 1?
How has all of the being eliminated effecting your playstyle this game or how do you predict it will if at all?

I've actually never been eliminated D1! As a general rule when I'm town I manage to get through the first day, but after that I'm sometimes eliminated. Either way I tend not to let it impact my playstyle all that much - I wouldn't even say I have that much of a specific playstyle for the most part, I simply analyse and try to find connections between different players but tend to be pretty uncertain in how I approach the game.

I kinda like this post as coming from a town mindset for Malcolm.

Because several of us here know he was eliminated day 1 as scum in the Web of Lies games (and is what Bell is refering to here I believe).

But he didn't even think of that game. His thoughts went to "I never get

mis

eliminated day 1." And [I'm town this game, so I am immediately comparing this game to my other town games] feels like a genuine thought process. While I would kinda expect scum!Malcolm to be more aware of the scum game where he crashed and burned
