Trust me, I get the impulse when someone does something bad directed at you. It's something I fight all the time, not always successfully. I don't think you can objectively look at it since it's directed at you.
Yeah it’s tough but sometimes I can tell despite the read on me. I expect certain people to be able to read me better than others. OtH is probably one of my strongest trs now because they are not only correctly reading me but for all the right reasons and Marci sounds exactly like she did in OMB.

Yes and is bad even still. What caused Johnny's read to change, and if it did, why is he still voting me? I think scum!Johnny is too lazy to move his vote around, town!johnny moves his vote in if he hasn't done it already.

I did put you as red. I'm very uncertain about your slot, and I thought you weren't as present as I expected you to be, though tbf, I also didn't know your Internet was out yesterday.

I don't think Titus doing that VCA vote was town indicative btw (@whoever said that), since she has done it as scum before. It also doesn't make sense, since technically all wagons are counterwagons to Cephrir, so shouldn't Titus be voting Cephrir instead of Frogster by her own logic...? but that's not that important, I don't want to belabor this point since it's probably NAI
I don't understand "all wagons are counterwagons to Cephrir"

gamma:
passive vibes, especially from that
"hello taly"
post. I get the impression their mentality towards mafia has changed from last year where we played several games as opposing alignments. I missed their thought on
Titus
head in the skim and inquire on that.
marcistar:
I don't feel much depth to their questions or the opinions they've given, IE, skimming the hydra I don't know their reads well. I also see a lack of townreads despite the volume of people they're talking to.
OTH, vibe with me bbs<3

-townreads
-energy level/WIM
-memes

galron:
Coming from someone who has hydra'd with
Galron
before, I see nothing in
Galron's
ISO that's atypical. Doesn't like to give info about townreads but I am curious about
Klick
. What townpings is the consistency with
Rad
-town and
Frogs
-scum. I feel good about doubling down on my initial T/T read of
Gal/Rad
but I'd like to hear more from them about other slots. (Does "null" equal no thoughts or net neutral?) But I don't think that's very productive approach in sorting him this early in a large playerlist.
Galron

nancy:
isn't mercilessly beating down players with scrutiny, so +town
ALSO HI NANCY <3


dwlee:
drowned out by the playerlist as expected, me want them around when they feel good :D i feel confident in my ability to sort them with some tea and lemon cakes.

dunn:
Much more active than scumgames I've seen of them and is attentive to how people respond to their roles and mechanics, which was different from how they approached a scumgame like Slaughter Hour. I'm not worried with this slot off their posts thus far. I'll be honest, this isn't an in-depth read specifically because
Dunn
is more active off first glance and so my initial ping is town, me no want to vote, me move on. I think someone voted
Dunn
? If so, I'd like to hear why.

pooky

poopy:
my strategy is to just meme until the vibe is off. me have done ugly TvTs and me have been fence-sitty T/T besties with this one. i dont have a strong first-hand perspective of their scumplay but their push for content is helpful in discerning a motive.
theMAFIAbear
, what do you get out of having the thread spew a readslist?

bell:
My focus is to parse the origin of their caution towards this slot and how that progresses to see if it comes from an informed perspective. So far I got townpings but I'm still thinking.

I just realized
Toog
has only posted twice and now I'm tilting my head at the suspicion there.

I'm failing to see the issue with
Toog's
since it's practically standalone, there was not much time for
Toog
to follow-up with his perspective before an accident (I hope he's okay :( ). And as a first post, the context of claiming role information and conflating it with alignment has a town motive in gauging reactions.

johnnyfarrar:
johnny
you prompted this from me, so thoughts?
rough feels of this group is that I'm still sorting but they're either null or townlean. which is interesting as that implies scum are players i am unfamiliar with.

i also have some familiarity with
ceph/penguin/mala/enchant
but nothing to construct much insight into them as a player.
Interesting post. Do I actually “beat down players with scrutiny as scum”? That’s actually news to me but your read is still right regardless.

I don’t know what you’re seeing BBT, this looks like Taly in pretty much every towngame I’ve played with them.
its akin to that
"you use a magnifying glass as town V something else as scum"
analogy

any read outside of your slot that you disagree with?

honestly the vibe in our PT feels moment-to-moment but im trying to avoid paranoia as much as possible.

the closest to build a consensus actively within this plist, you think that is town or scum motivated?
