They also harbored zero doubt on my alignment. Asking me to summarize the game for them over the weekend.
It was weird. But not scummy weird. Just weird.

Does Toad have a pretty tight scum game?
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.

Actually I just don't think You'd town clear Marci as scum with Marci.
But also, you do seem townish so far Luke.

I will note that Lukewarm did in fact interpret all of that string correctly.
I said I didn't like them because snark at wording, before obliging because I always do that.
Then rolled my eyes at the gotcha question by Luke before explaining in irritation.

My scumgame quality, much like my towngame quality, is highly variable and dependent on my irl situation and how much effort I feel able to put into the game.

Feel free to believe me or not but this is a relatively fresh alt so no one else is going to have the knowledge required.

Not necessarily. My notes are "Dislike Frog and Luke, feels like ~350ish is s/s [\n] JF TR Luke?" so I've just been meaning to ask about it. Something wasn't rubbing right around then, but I suspect a lot of you have a better feel for him as a player than I do.
i know this is a me thing but performative reference to notes will always bother me

and i say this is performative because it's clearly formatted in a way no one could possibly understand, so the only purpose it serves is "hey look at me i take notes"

I have a related issue which might also just be personal preference.

Corwin references "having their own reasons" for disliking my slot in , while in they say "Dislike Frog and Luke, feels like ~350ish is s/s...Something wasn't rubbing right around then..." which I'd hardly consider to be a reason, I think that's called a ping or a gut read or an intuition.

At best, it's a feeling which inspires reason by barely eluding it.

It reads like Corwin is concerned their simple ping read on my slot won't be accepted by the thread unless it's also viewed as logical and we believe they are reasonable. Corwin's first two catch up posts are reminding me of catchup posts I wrote when I was limmed D1 for being obvscum.

I'm not sure Corwin would make this post as scum.

They're being sarcastic and bitter. But I think it might come out differently if they felt any guilt toward their team.

I wouldn't like bet a kidney on it.

I don't see anything he's posted that makes me think oh yea this is town Frogster.
so why aren't you voting there, partner?
I have a list of people I'm currently willing to vote for and I can't vote for all of them cuz god didn't give me multiple votes but those people should all consider themselves to be voted by me because I will hammah them if given the chance.

actually if everyone would like to give a list of people they want eliminated in LIST format. I can keep track of multi-voting and that might be more useful than this single voting thing which is kind of annoying in large themes.

I would be surprised if there isn't 1 scum in these three players.

Thank you ahead of time if you collect the names and post the list, I think that might help a lot with the D1 structure.

actually as I set up this excel table I realize it might be useful to see where everyone is on townreads/null too since it's not that much work to add that info in.

so in your next post pls list the entire PL in the following format:

[Townreads]:
NAMES

[Null]:
NAMES

[Want to Murder]:
NAMES


Mine were listed in and I've been busy so I haven't actually updated them yet.

Basically just sort the entire PL into 3 lists cuz its easier for data collection
