His initial reason for getting on the wagon is pretty insubstantial
Why him specifically? Most of the people on the wagon initially jumped on because of this very same thing.
This is correct, and I consider it natural to look for scum on the TD wagon, especially considering how fast it grew. This quote here is significant, because later he claims to have already posted his reason for being on the wagon. This is that reason.
I see it, at that point in time, to be at least somewhat legitimate. I can see where one would think TD is scum for such harsh reactions to Venmar PGO-claim. Add to that, his consistency with the NS claim, and you get a guy flailing like crazy and acting rather anti-town.

In post 153, Mac wrote:pretty sure you are running away.
now answer the questions asked at you or be lynched. it's simple.
And yet he follows up pushing the wagon without really posting his own reason.
I'm not posting the whole iso, but suffice to say up till 208 he doesn't give a reason for being on the wagon, despite pushing it heavily.
Post 138 disagrees.
I meant that between the previous post I commented on (138) and 208 he doesn't give a reason. I was agnowledging that he had aditional posts between 138 and 208, but none giving any other reason for being on the wagon.
I see. So you're looking for elaboration on his part?

In post 208, Mac wrote:
In post 200, TiphaineDeath wrote:It's not a mother fucking policy lynch, I didn't push a lynch on venmar, I never voted venmar, and I hate policy lynches. Remove-head-from-rectum-conf-town.
and yet you said you were "heavily tempted" to vote Venmar earlier
But TD explained in his very next post that he only said that out of frustration, and never intended to actually vote him. Mac seems to have ignored that post entirely.
So what you're telling me... is that he's wrong for not reading a backtrack? I'd understand if this was like, y'know, something less scummy. But TD backtracked the hell out of that post. He went all guns blazing at Venmar, only to later say, "Oh, I never REALLY wanted to vote him!"

...Remind me why it's scummy to assume such behavior?
I agree with TD's backtracking was fairly scummy, but in Mac's mind, TD can't both be scummy for, as Mac said, soft-FOSing Ven and waiting for more traction, and ALSO scummy for quickly backing off when someone else voted Ven. From reading Mac's posts, it seems the former, that Mac didn't read and thought that TD was soft pushing Ven waiting for more votes to jump on. However, when I corrected this to him, he stated:
In post 245, Mac wrote: ok. i was wrong. remind me why that makes me scum?
I've justified my place on this wagon already.
As I stated earlier, his only posted justification was in 138 (cited above) where he says only that he doesn't like the way TD has been playing so far (meaning posts before 138).

So, at 245, he's on a large wagon, which grew extremely quickly, and has just had one of his primary reasons for being on the wagon reveled to be incorrect. His reaction is to stay on the wagon, and not bother to examine the people on it at all? This isn't town motivated at all.
I'll give you this. This is actually pretty decent reasoning for Macscum.

I'm basically skipping Sound of Silence for reasons similar to Beauty & Beast; I see them as being reasonably town, and with a reread not going to change that.

I don't really have many games with Thez, so it's definitely something I need to check up on to make sure this isn't scum-Thez, but I'm actually quite liking thezmon221's posts thusfar, so he's a decent townread of mine, too. For the most part, logic seems good, stances seem reasonable.

Skipping TD, who I'm just writing off as town for the time being. Will be worth revisiting later, but for now, seems town enough.

I'm reading Trust Fund's iso, and I can't lock down on it one way or the other. Gun to my head, I'd guess town, but I really really have them as nullish. I'm trying. I'm reading their iso and rereading it, but I can't tell.

Last but not least, zMuffinMan. I can still see him as scum. "can see". Not do see. Quite the opposite, I'm thinking I was wrong, and that he was actually far more town than I realized. The very same posts I was suspicious of (perhaps because I thought they might be setting up a tVt fight) now just look like legitimate scumhunting to me.

I'm a bit concerned about his stances, such as nicktown, Rachscum, maScum2, TD as scum, and such, but I quite like his overall feeling right now. Enough for him to be reversed into a townread, albeit not a strong one.


Anyway, that's about it for my isos for now. I'll iso myself and compile some reads out of this tomorrow; I don't think I have the analysis left in me to finish it today.

Not this? And Maybe? I'll admit it, Mac's not a player I find easy to remember in my games, because Mac typically isn't someone I have much focus on. (Akin to Zdenek, in that he's someone I play with a lot, but is not very memorable. I remember playing with Mac and the generalities, but not the specifics.) But again. I just don't think this is scum-Mac. If you absolutely must, call it gut. (It aint gut. :P) I'll do my homework later to determine for surez, but I just. don't. see. a. scuMac.

Could you elaborate on your nhammen read? Nhammen feels pretty null to me.

Also, you're voting SoS, and all you've said so far about her is a possible liar tell. So either you consider that one tell scummier than anything else so far this game, or there's more to that vote then you've said. Which is it?
If it's the former, can you elaborate on how that is a liar tell? I don't really follow.

She's not giving me warm fuzzy feelings. At all. This doesn't seem like the town-her that I've come to expect, like, at all. So again, bit of a scumread.

She replaced nhammen, who is next on my iso list. There's not much to really see, there. I can't really have anything definitive, other than a bit of a gut scumread with his overall approach.

Skull iso is basically empty, so nothing there at all. At this point with me not really having any really strong townreads, might be a scumread just by virtue of being a null-read.
headfuckingdesk.

I just got off from work and I was reading the thread way before replacing in and I thought B&B was scum. I then asked Fery for an explanation because I wanted to see her thought process. I also misread Jiffy's list, I thought all those names were scum reads before I took a closer look at it right now.

I'm about to sit down and reread again for more solid reads, patience young grasshopper.

Dear B&tB Hydra,

Tell me which one of you posted . I'm sure it's Jiffy, but I want to know for sure.

Anyways -

I'm still rereading. I still think Jiffy hydra is scum. I'm not liking Muffin or TD. This doesn't feel like the town-TD I once played with before and I disagree with a majority of his posts especially on account to Venmar's role. Mastin's post gave me a bad feel. Mac has similar thoughts to me which makes me lean town on him. Notscience is confirmed town, but regardless I had a town read on him since Page 2...

I want Rach to explain in regards to MS claiming early in another game, tyvm.

... continuing on..

Because they're both scummy.

I've already elaborated on nhammen, and Mala's ISO is self-explanatory.

Not as passionate a reaction as I had expected from TD.
I was expecting him to either get really pissed at me or to use the 'out' I gave him where he could explain off his earlier actions as ones made solely out of frustration.
Instead, it's this strange melding of the two, where he admits I've pushed him against me but still says I'm scum but not his highest pick.
Regardless, I feel like Scum would've had a more artificial answer, given what I gave TD to exploit in my 591.
So, for now,
Unvote


The last six pages are a blur, I just glossed them. Will return with worthwhile commentary on those and more later tonight, if I get the time.
Still trying to get in touch with MS.

Calling me scum off my ISO without me being fully caught up is the most stupidest fucking thing I have seen. It's like not even giving me a freaking chance.

Want to know why? I don't see town-Mollie at all in the 15 pages I read before replacing in. She's more "out spoken, aggressive and hunting for reads" and so far she isn't. I am scum reading you guys do to that and I already said that when I asked for Fery's explanation, but damn if I knew Mollie was going to rage-replace out due to Fery's answer I would have never asked in the first place.

Keep calling me bullshit when I already made the comment, but I never noted specifics.

This.is.not.town.Mollie.

No? To actually post my reads and thoughts after reading everything. Good god lay the fuck off of me right now.

No, Mollie posted during page 1 and it did not feel like town-Mollie. The only thing that looked like maybe town-Mollie was on page 12, but she's still being more laid back then normal.

So I call bullshit on "Probably because it's Majiffy".. I'm not talking about

The contrast between this Mala and the scum-replace-in mala from my Newbie is pretty strong, and even absent from her meta she's been reasonably towny. Townread on that slot.

Could Yall like cite your meta on mollie?
