how do you feel about marashu right now / the marashu wagon
I'd lean scum still but I think that he tends to be on the lower activity end as either alignment so could easily be a miss. There was an anon dance game where I paired with him mainly as a "whatever" and kind of slowly came to townread him but it took a bit. Kind of feel like giving him time.

Do you think Marashu is the best vote right now?

Is activity the main reason you have him as lean scum?

I think there are a couple pretty good votes. I think the Kitty wagon is not bad probably. I like the Marashu wagon as competition. I also feel a little more excited about it bc he feels like less "obvious" scum and I realize that's a terrible way to scum hunt but if Kitty is scum I won't get as much dopamine flipping him :P

I think was a little LAMISTy and I think it doesn't make sense for Marashu to ask about the post limit if they are consistently lower activity.

also just feels like... posting to post. I don't think this needed to be said and I think it's the style of post scum tends to make when they're looking for content to produce.

feels over explainy

No it's not activity but his posts have felt a bit hollow so far

You keep saying you think you get it but then you loop back right into not knowing. Ask some clarification questions instead of looping. Into a deeper and deeper series of doubt that themselves don’t make sense because it almost seems like you can’t understand how time works. \: or something?
yes it very much is? bc it wasn't rvs? it was on page 24 how is that rvs? and you've kept your vote there the entire time, so if the vote was bc you're happy to explore wagons then why not ever explore other wagons? this is starting to feel like weird excuses to not actually do any normal town behavior like hunt scum or vote for the people you think are scum

and you are responding to a quote in which i did ask clarifying questions so... yea that's what im doing. i don't get the tone here. what do you even mean that i don't understand how time works?

i never said that i get why you're doing this. i specifically said multiple times that it is really weird and doesn't make sense to me. all ive said is that now you're at least showing your thought process and i feel like i can see that thought process even though i don't really think the thought process makes sense (and tbh kind of feels fake and made up after the fact to justify your behavior considering there are unexplained holes in it)

like in that post i specifically asked you to clarify what you meant by justifying your vote as a reaction to alisae's approach to norwee, when your vote was before they took that approach. and you ignored the question. and then made up another justification that doesn't make sense (rvs??). and then said that i should be asking more clarifying questions to understand you. like what

VOTE: bell

the tone in that post actually really bothers me i don't think it makes sense from town at all

like why would you condescend and minimize what im saying and say that i should be asking clarifying questions instead of looping back into not understanding, while skipping past the question that i asked

i kinda just think you don't have an answer

i remember in invictus i was def a bit over the top in my performing concern about the postcap early on in an attempt to look towny, that one was like 125

the postcap here is 200. i don't really think any town here should be genuinely worried about it rn if they put any actual thought into it (unless they are a huge spam poster which we don't really have any of here), which is what makes it feel kinda faked concern

can anyone who knows bell tell me whether "i got the impression you're scum in the first 5 pages and i'm gonna stick to it" kind of behaviour is more like his town or scum game

because i can currently think of (1) reason it's townie and (1) reason it's scummy
I will straight up disregard all reason if you have a PR dream again. You can come back and be like, “I dreamt that Locke is a N2 Bulletproof Multitasking Cop and Self-Targeting Doctor,” and I will go, “Okay, Locke kill it is then.”

I am feeling the same thing he is talking about. I make a lot of borderline useless posts. Even though I doubt I'll hit the cap, I still feel bad making those posts. It is, indeed, a psychological thing.

i think it's probably the easiest aspect of his towngame to imitate and leaning on it heavily (both on you, and not really evolving his thought on norwee) has me kinda hmmm

i think the part of town bell that is hard for scum bell to imitate is the natural evolving thought process

and like not just sounding stiff and wooden and forced and obligatory and like he doesn't want to be there

i think him sticking to a scumread from the first 5 pages is none of those things and i don't know why it would make him locktown, do you really think that's the thing he can't do as scum?

good question. that was my plan as well, and I do have a lot of hood posts relative to my posts here, but I don't think it was as successful as I was hoping it'd be.
