Basically just "he feels right".
ckd - I think he is gnarly, grumpy, "get off my lawn!" old man town, he reminds me a bit of dramalama but he seems to be more hands on then dram is. I look forward to post game discussion. I feel like he is really trying to figure things out and sort the game in some kind of manageability. strong town.
This is a half-decent reason, okay, I'm not omitting any, though, id like to see how many are barely justified.
notty - his jumpiness is well-timed and his reactions seem authentic and look like they are coming from a place of trying to orient himself in the game and feeling out the players he knows best. I liked his early poking at bins but I am little disappoint/worried that he didn't do much with it. I have some paranoia niggles only cos some of his posts to me feel like scum!mala and I know they are close but eh, its not a good idea to read him based off of mala's play. so treating as town and hoping he is. I just thought that after ff7 our dynamics wld be a bit stranger.
Okay this is alright too.
bins - I feel like this town!bins. our exchanges gave me a good feel about her.
Okay this isn't a reason.
Why do your exchanges give you a warm feel?
marquis - I want to say town. I am slightly paranoid of her, and some of it is cos I wonder if ckd is seeing something that I am not but even if I squint my eyes and look really hard do I kind of see where he is coming from but the thing is none of that points to scum!marquis. treating as town and hoping she is.
Again, this is explained but there's no real reason for it either way.
Why are you paranoid abput Marq? Why are you treating Marq as town despite this?
spiffeh - I think he is town and I am really quite sure why pple are going after him when there is a lot scummier behaviour going on in the thread.
Why do you think he's town?
unsure
flame - loved him for town right up until he said that he did not want to lynch dave for reasons that I don't really follow. unsure.
Okay, so you had him as town until he disagreed with a wagon on me, and that drops him allllll the way to null? This feels like "you disagree with my thoughts so you're scummy".
catboi - I like his posts and I like his stances but his vote on me and quick jump off was weird plus I am feeling vague paranoia cos he is kind of being nice to me ever since. unsure, with slight townish leanings.
This one's alright though.
scotty - I liked the ur mom jokes, I like where his head is at, at times but he is moving the game forward at a crawl. very unsure. mebbe it just takes time for him to get his head in the game. I know a lot of players like that.
So... it's acceptable for him to take a while to get his head in the game?
Aren't you scumreading me for that reason?
myko - WHAT. WAS. THAT. POST.
Yeh...
What post? Why?
unsure and I feel pretty weird about them!
nexus - this isn't grumpy, cranky nexus and he has not said fuck or bullshit once. it is freaking me out. I don't know him super well, we had a bonding moment over
Black Mirror
but unfortunately that doesn't help me in mafia. cdb is townreading him so eh, if cdb were to flip town I wld treat that read like gold but for now he is very unsure.
You're scumreading because he hasn't swore yet. That's new levels of meta rubbish.
cdb - I am not sure if I even have words. his push on me is AWFUL and I don't like him saying "ignore this" when I am trying to say that if cdb does his big eyes/lower lip quiver then lynch him. I mean I fall for it all of the time which makes me want to beat him with various sized pillows. I may even have done this once or twice. I dunno we will see. wildly unsure.
Okay, a reason, neat, I was missing them.
reck - he is being so weird.so very very weird. I looked back at the games he posted and no, he did not show signs of the paranoia that he says he felt. so he isn't quite being truthful about that, unless it was somehow bigger in his head than what he let on...in every single game. the thing is if he did NOT know how to read me but has had some success in the past albeit it took him time then why is he not wanting to give me time in this game? that is what i find puzzling. its like he is not even attempting to sort me out and just wants me GONE.
Hmm, a bit hard to understand but it seems justified.
star - I thought she was scum at first cos of her angles. we tussled. when I went back and reread my posts to see if I had even voted cdb so I cld see wth myko was talking about I noticed that she tried to pit me against both reck and zito by saying that I was insulting them. reck knows I am not homophobic and zito knows that we can always talk about it post game if it was somehow that important. when she got no traction with either of those it became me trying to 1-up her about activism when I wasn't? I extended an olive branch so we will see what comes of it, it cld just be her personality I don't know.
I'm... I can't quite see a reason here. She said you were insulting someone, so she's scummy? That's just... Nah.
dave - can we plz have town!dave back pretty plz. I have not seen him all game.
Yeh this isn't a reason.
What is town!Dave? How am I not town!Dave? Do you have any actual reason to scumread me or is this just meta?
matty - I want him to be town. I scumread sc got nothing from him and while matty did put forth some reads he has disappeared again so he has nothing to improve that slot's chronic inactivity. it wld break my heart if matty were scum, this is the best that we have gotten along and I honestly feel like he is town but again, I get paranoid of pple who are nice to me sometimes. I feel like I need to see more matty.
Hmm, this is alright.
aj - he can sometimes have this myopic vision of the game where he will focus on 1 player to the exclusion of others as either alignment. what I am really concerned about is the lack of enthusiasm. there is something missing here but I haven't seen his scum game in almost 3 years.
I can't really see the reason here. He didn't do this thing he does sometimes? He's not enthusiastic? Neither of these are great reasons.
So yeh, that post is ew. It looks like Mollie is trying to look like she's doing stuff, but 70% of that post is unreasoned fluff. I'm betting she just expected people to skimread it because of its length, rather than actually reading closely and realising the reasons aren't the best.
