deas town nice let's go

y is that post townie?

the previous time i played with deas (as t/t) we mindmelded so much that i eventually got paranoid he could be pocketing me (partly thanks to FL encouraging that paranoia, but still)

and his post was pretty close to my thought process when i saw that post from ari, but i also hadn't said it in the thread. the read from her felt kinda rote/obligatory and didn't feel like it really looked deeper at trying to figure out datisi's alignment. and i hadn't really (even mentally) put words to why i felt that, but deas' post i think more or less captured it. i understand that isn't gonna do anything for anyone else but for me it results in a townread

but even beyond that, it's also just a p nuanced view of things that shows he's reading closely and thinking carefully about the posts he's reading, and imo the fact that he felt compelled to post about it before doing his main thoughts/catchup just feels like a towny kind of "this is a point that i actually care about" type thing. that on its own might merit just a slight townlean, bc he could fake that, but it was more the fact that i really vibed with the thought that made it stronger

You and HEM both said this. What is compelling a TR there?

[humaneatingmonkey]

Also forgot how much I hate being called a fluffposter. Like that's not wrong, but >:(

i think this is likely to be a genuine emotion that you can only have if you're town. you won't hate being called a fluffposter as scum.
im just making a bet that it isn't likely he's using it as a way to diffuse suspicions because there isn't any. it's not like he's skimping out on reads either so i doubt it's delaying tactic.

- Looking up what DeasVail's alignment was the last time they played together
- Stating the obvious t/t read of Ausuka & Marci in a way that would be hard to rescind
- Complaining about being read as a fluffposter while admitting it's true

pedit: HEM is locktown for like 3 day phases at least tbh

[humaneatingmonkey]

Datisi seemed less bothered by being suspected and more bothered by being misunderstood.

how did you make that distinction

heya i'm around a bit i suppose,
i don't think catching up is a thing that's happening tonight tho

[scamper]

hi skidder!

instead of catching up maybe just read the last 4-5 pages and give thoughts?

[skitter30]

VOTE: scamper

oh this is spicy, i'd like to hear more

also i'm not getting great vibes from nero still

Why is it spicy? Do you think scamper's ISO is especially townie or something?

his first few posts are fluff, I don't like the phrasing of 108 it doesn't actually give me any idea why scamper thinks HEM is scum while being an easy thing to say to justify your vote, 110 is offensively non-offensive. 114 also gave me a feel of trying to stir shit around Nero without actually directly getting involved.

@Ydrasse

what do you see as town here?

i don't think his iso was especially townie or anything, but i certainly don't think he was someone who merited a vote at that time either

- 108 - it's a page5 gutping that he's admitting is a gutping, i find it odd that you're dinging him for not having more at that time
- 110 - what does 'offensively inoffensive' mean here? if anything i'm p sure those were p hot takes for the time (i don't think anybody espoused a tr on me then, and i think i'm the only one who called ydra town at that point (maybe one other person did?)) either way these are not super common takes, how is this 'offensively inoffensive'
- 114 - i'm not really seeing this one either

the '...' is apparently part of the 'gimmick skitter' account i suppose, he's trying to copy my writing style

(fwiw i presently have 2 guesses)
(really 4 but 2 are disqualified for being in the game)

[skitter30]

also ari:

i find it quite odd that you sort of started a thing with nero but didn't really followup on it or push it

did you discuss that anywhere?

[skitter30]

hi skidder!

can do

[skitter30]

not sure i understand marci/ausuka but i think it's probably tvt
750 is a townpost, and i'm not sure ausuka gets this worked up as scum?
(also lowkey uncomfortable to read on p31)
(as i wrote this the bizarre thought of svs crossed my mind but i don't really think that's a thing here)

don't understand the xolfef townreads

i like scamper calling for the pace to slow down
(both in the sense that it will be easier for me to play and also in the sense that i think it was a townie thing to push)

i don't like dats' 820

~
on top of what is explicitly mentioned above:
fireside is town
ydra is town

i didn't like ari last night; i don't like gl's scamper vote

on top of this i don't really don't have scumreads or thoughts on anyone else rn

[Aristeia]

also ari:

did you discuss that anywhere?

yea he's like 99% town now

[skitter30]

ok how'd you come to that conclusion?

[Aristeia]

got him to get mad at me accidentally

[skitter30]

were u trying to provoke that?

[Aristeia]

not really

[Irrelephant11]

ari's just town here I think

[Irrelephant11]

got him to get mad at me accidentally

I'm being bad and dumb for basing a townread off of the tone of this single post but like if you can imbue your scumposts with a feeling of "oops I found a townie and made him mad", I'd be impressed
