I'd be inclined to agree with you but mentioning it this early defeats the purpose of trying to catch someone doing this imo
Kinda don't like Brian right now even though it'd be deja vu for Xenoblade
I'd argue that Brian is one of the few that's had meaningful posts outside of mechanics discussion (notably his read on me)

peta's probably a little confused and doesn't know what to do because he can't vote me right now

Firebringer, I'd ask you to come over here so I can smack you with my vote, but idk if you're worthy enough to bask in all our glory just yet.

I think the move is to turnstile scum reads in this thread to the other thread and turnstile town reads with ~reasons~ to be here from the other thread to this thread

Oh also we agree that midwaybear is town over there, mostly because he made the same mistake both of us made. i was looking at distribution of the players before the game and was trying to figure out who was likely to stick themselves in which spot, and then asked cakez before I went to out there. Then shortly before we went in lockdown, Nacho was telling me about his brian town read due to distribution of players, which fizzled when I cleared him up that the town were distributed after scum chose themselves.
So yeah obtuse bear is probably just town there.

In post 88, unwnd wrote:The reason why I'm mostly against mech talk is because I think mech talk is very easy for scum to be involved in. Mech talk is less tonal and takes way less effort than say, having a read on someone. You can sit here and talk about mech all day and make it sound somewhat appealing. I'm fine with it dependent on the read of the individual leading/suggesting it, but that remains a slight struggle
this is fine and all but this game has some very involved and distinct mech mechanics and I think it's unhealthy to totally ignore it until the games have decided that it's too convoluted to have a consistent strategy for
also, 'turnstiling' people is an important part of mech and the thread will be less meaningful/readable if turnstile votes are being done for radically different reasons with no discussion
if we can kinda soft agree that 'turnstiling' in this thread is 'second top scumread' then that can actually help us keep track of reads a little easier I think?

VOTE: Pisskop
Probably more likely to be scum I guess.
Ngl, I read the set up once and I have no fucking clue what's optimal play there.

I get slight town vibes on Brian atm because as I expect scum!him to try to play nicer w/ me instead of potentially putting him on my radar right away by pressuring me immediately

hi spiffeh!
(I will probably not be weighing in on the turnstile issue. while I think it'd be fantastic if it worked out that way, I will not have my head wrapped around the mechanics until sometime mid day one probably, so nacho's the mech talk guy and he can talk about that stuff. He's asleep now though.)
