Don't worry about the town game either, again, I understand haha.

I'm not sure why people are scumreading bbt. It started real early and I don't get it but I haven't bothered to look deeper either.

And are they hoods if there are just two members? But their post about hoods is what spurred my question about your pt. But really their suggestion about hoods is nai, although it does show some impetus to solve maybe. I could iso them I guess but day 1 large is a crapshoot and I don't know that I want to put in that work at this point. In otherwords, I don't have much to offer on bbt. Where do you have them?

Red flag: wanted to talk me about reads where there’s less “noise”
Yellow flag: wanted to leap frog the sorting process and collaborate. Which is great power dynamics but like.
Blue flag: I don’t really play well In neighborhoods. I shy away from them due to okapoka’s rather persuasive argument and my posts would be identical here and there unless I trusted the other player wouldn’t leak it, but I don’t have that guarantee so.

I believe I have a good feel for the difference between scum!BBT and town!BBT, but he'll have to ramp up his activity before I can test that theory. He's just null right now. His town and scum play is pretty similar, so it's not really a meta read per se, it's just that his intuition comes out differently as town vs scum.

knowing you were probably around to see if you'd communicate directly. :)

The initial thought was that you were holding reads to stall in time to make them, because almost all of your posts up until recently have given little impression of your perspective on the game.

And yet you've posted a bit frequently and the tone and diction feels similar to what I've seen commonly with scum.

But given the past page, I'm going to think more on this.

Following people's reads are difficult, I don't remember what
Rad
thinks of you hahaha, 26p is a bigger bite to chew than I thought.

Justify your lowest reads, please :3

@Galron - Because I naked voted on two wagons.

But like, if that's people's reasons for their BEST scum read then there is something wrong.

See I'm not hip on scum BBt right now. It's too easy to catch a scum read early and then every thing you do comes under heavier scrutiny and is presumed scummy. Rebutting that presumption puts you on the defensive and THAT looks bad. It just kinda snowballs.

First part of this post is LAMIST - making it obvious that they were trying to 'sort me'

Stalling to make time for reads is also bad. As if I couldn't generate them on the spot if I really wanted to. Or even just disengage from the thread and come back another time given my activity levels thus far.

Tone and diction are buzzwords. This in no way clarifies WHY they think I'm scum. Poor generalisation.

The whole post is wishy-washy as well. Prob waiting to see where the tide flows on a potential BBT wagon.

In post 1591, T-Bone wrote:One scum in Roden/BBT/Corwin is such an eclectic group to tie together. What interactions do they have that leads you to believe all this?
It was based on PoE, not interactions.

I'm rethinking my PoE based on Rad's point about Blue's activity levels, my new take last night that Roden is townie, and CSF's initial gut take that Corwin is townie.

Assuming that my PoE was wrong, which seems likely, there is at least one scum who is collecting town reads, and Corwin/BBT/Roden may be getting scapegoated to some extent. I think Ceph is a great example of a slot who fits what I'm looking for and is playing well within their scum range.
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.

Okay, I thought their entrance was weak and forced, the list in 1580 is exactly the kind of do-nothing-look-active list I hate, and some of their posts like feel like a weak attempt to pocket Bell.

It's partially gut but I've played with
Galron
multiple times against, same alignment, and as a hydra. Difficult to verbalize but I don't see an agenda, a lot of their posts look like doubtcasting at face-value but they read to me as a genuine thought process and critic.

It's also connected to my
Rad
townread and their interactions. In my opening page, I commented on their interactions their and the initial read stuck, especially with
Rad's
communication towards me.

As for
T-Bone
, a lot of it is disagreement with the assessment of
Bell
, but I'm a biased party as a PT partner. So I thought to watch how that read progresses without my commentary.

I don’t usually make readslists on d1, especially not in larges. I also wouldn’t hold my breath for d2 either. Early game, I give out reads, usually trs, which I have and you absolutely should know this Pooky.
