Also Mac, can you explain how HC is town? To me, I don't mind Mara when she posts but the other hydra head is not helping their cause.
I don't really know what to make of it. I've played with Aegor a couple of times now and modded a game of his and I recall him being more logical rather than just throwing votes around. But he was scum in my modded game, so what I'm seeing is a stark contrast to both his usual selves.
HKC is not a strong town read, but it's not a case of whether you mind them or not - but I assume you're talking about finding Mara town and not Bert? To put it bluntly - Bert is Bert. He's a bit of a troll but a solid asset if town. But as scum (I might be wrong here because I'm going off something I read a while back from someone) I'm almost sure he's more manipulative. If I'm wrong, anyone can feel free to correct me. But that manipulation is something I'm not seeing in this game, and the blatant dissonance is bound to attract some attention. I don't think it's coming from a scum hydra.

I'm a little surprised you're solidly townreading us but yay. Agree on highshroomish.
I have independent reasons for thinking that both Jake and Aegor look scummy, but I'm having a little trouble picturing them as part of a team. :/
SMP is becoming a pretty distinct concern.
catboi's paraphrased fuckit-i'll-post-tomorrow gave me some town flickers, though!
It's been coming. SMP is a concern but I'm not barking up that tree yet because there's very little point. I think AJ is starting to come into a very town read, but I recall having a similarish read in Xenogears and being wrong. My memory's a bit hazy, so I might double check that.

I can't make head nor tail of this. Care to expand a little further?
It is most certainly not. Town lurk too, believe it or not!

Now he's playing differently AND he's active lurking which is a scumtell.
Read that again and show me where I asked for or cared about the other site.

These two statements contradict each other.
My head tells me you're scum pushing the everliving fuck out of a goldmine you've found in SMP games, Jake, because it looks from the above you didn't want to delve any deeper than you had to and possibly ruin your argument. On the other hand, it's a legitmate enough argument that makes me consider SMP-scum.
I'd like to hear something from SMP at least, because I'm well aware that town lurk too, regardless of their activity in other games on and off site.
