The basis for the scumread was mostly twofold:

- Zar's play and the replace
- Empire's tammy read

The replace aspect on a holistic, dare I say gestalt, level is not as worrying right now after the reread.

his Tammy read, like I said, is hard to fathom, but we're leaning toward Empire feeling rusty and overthinking or something. For us, by 10 pages in Tammy was clearly town, and nothing has obscured that read since then.

I mentioned earlier that Empire's reads list was directional with my own - and he was already taking stances in agreement with changes in my reads that I hadn't even slightly hinted at in the game thread at that point. For me, that was a significant dent in my scumread of the slot, but I wanted players on my team with more Empire-reading experience to weigh in.
Amid the pressure of great events, a general principle gives no help.

On the path to becoming yourself, you'll need to choose alignment over validation from others, peace over addictive chaos, and being misunderstood over false acceptance. --TheHolisticPsychologist

Ok, I feel as if I am totally lost. The scumreads on Tammy, GiF and Bulba make no sense to me. I feel as if I am speaking Greek while everyone else is speaking Swahili.

If you could take for instance Vezok and state a simple case about why you're scumreading him and I'll state a simple case on why I'm townreading him and we can see if we can figure that out or not. You're my biggest townread in the game at the moment, and I don't like how your scumread by a lot of players. I also don't get it.


I'm reevaluating Vezok at the moment. I've asked Mollie to look over his ISO and let me know what she thinks, but her statement that Tammy is scum is making me consider that I've been off not only there, but also on Empire, which would put Vezok square in "most likely town". I may have just had a bad knee jerk reaction to him. I still hate the last post of his from the minor day, though.

P-edit: Why is your approval for TTH essentially Aronis's reason word for word?

Maybe it's because it's a good reason?

Would like to know why you think both of these things.

CDB is now a null read. I'm not willing to disclose my read on Bulba at this time to it not being that strong and I want to be able to keep a close eye on his behavior for a while longer before being 100% sure.

I not really that sure about my scumread on you, my buoba scumread is somewhat omgus, so I'm not that sure about it. So probably one of espionage and tth (the only reason I'm as confident as I am in this one is bc my teammate agrees.)

Give me a min OK!?!

This just feels like Gif is hoping to get UT mislynched in the near future.

I'll let you read that linked post again with context. Then I'll allow you some time to figure out if what you're saying is really what I said back there.

Anyway, I think I'm prob gonna be useless until some ppl dies out, or at least for few weeks. I'm looking to see if one of my teammates can switch with me though.

Bring ika maybe? But Day 1 is always the hardest. No real evidence to go on. Unless a wagon hits scum day 1, the wagon is more useful for VCA than anything else.

Alchemist is catching up on this game. It'll likely take him a day or two because of the length and complexity.

Why don't yu ask the confirmed fucking town that is actually playing in this game, has played more games with me, and can read me better.


See Tammy, the thing is that mollie has played with scum you very recently, I have a rapport with mollie as of recent and I don't have a good rapport with the confirmed town.

Now with that out of the way.

I'm getting more and more happy in my read that you're scum. Truth be told I found myself unapproving of the tth wagon simply because you were on it which took me by surprise tbh. Your tone here doesn't read to me like the frustrated got irl stuff tone as far as I can tell, which is about the only explanation I have for the amount of scumminess I am feeling from your posts. And even if that is the reasoning for your tone it still doesn't mean you're town, it takes it to null, at most. I don't have the most experience with you but I'm going off what I do have. And your responses to people here for the most part aren't looking town.

I'm pretty sure you're scum.

Vote: Tammy


gots a preedit come up



This reads like complete bullshit btw.

I'm actually not frustrated with real life ATM. Bit stressed over my defense but that's it.

Why can't I be bussing tth?

You're wrong, you can't read my tone, my responses are town because I'm town.

I know silly me why would I possibly want someone who is voting me and calling me scum to actually read my posts.

You don't have sufficient information, it's not enough, I don't care if it's been an issue before, you're not catching scum because you're voting town and calling me scum when I'm really really not.

And don't overblow the "never been an issue before" when we haven't played *that* many games together.

And did yiu literally say that you'd rather talk to mollie about a read on me because of rapport when she's of unknown alignment, reading me wrong, instead of confirmed town who know me a hell of a lot better? Am I misinterpreting that? Because to me it reads like you just wanting to have someone confirm your bad read, that you made all on your own!, than actially figure out my alignment.
