Grendel can you explain your scumread of me in more detail.
I feel like your reads are genuine, but you may be missing the mark on me due to some other NAI reasons. So please elaborate.

Nevermind, looking again, LLD is also pretty strongly town to me. I didn't realise the significance of the mod reaction first time around.
That makes Rodens claim that LLD and Greeting are unaligned even more ???.
@Roden: Like, dude, come on. I've seen your play and coming up with a read on such absolute nonsense is just so far out of the range, I think I must be missing something.
All I want is for you to explain the thinking there. At the moment it looks like very much like you pulled it out of your arse to fit a scum agenda. I think strongly that Greeting is town here, but I understand
why
people night have said Greetings play was surface level scummy, so a fake push there looks like where I might have gone as scum.
The more you bluster around and lean on your white knights and try and shade your accusers, instead of just explaining the logic there, the more it just looks like you've been caught with your trousers down with that - but everyone is allowed a off game every now and again, I guess.

I've read through his two wall multi-quotes though and they're on point, just not a lot of depth. But that's pot and kettle.
While I feel like Ircher is scum, I am honor-bound to defend him on this point in spite of how it'd potentially weaken my standing in terms of pushing Ircher as scum, in that Ircher doing the multiquote with things that are on-point is actually his town meta.
It's just that him not having depth is still him being scum since the difference between town and scum is that town quotestripes and is onpoint with depth and Ircher as scum occasionally (but does not as consistently) quotestripes onpoint but lacks depth.
(Btw side-note, StD v Roden is pretty obviously TvT but I can't really go in as much depth as I'd prefer to there since I'm not sure I'll be able to get caught up yet alone be lucid. I'm running out of time tonight, both before I need sleep and in brain power.)

I have like a 66% ability to soulread Norwee.
As in, 2/3rds of the time, I can soulread Norwee--and even in the one third where I can't soulread Norwee, I can't get a read on Norwee.
So when I say Norwee is town here, without a doubt? It's the soulread in effect.
Why can I soulread Norwee? Fucked if I know, I legit have no clue why Norwee's the one player onsite that I have the soulread ability of in 2021-2022. But I can, and this is Norwee as town.
With very very high confidence.
I'll do my best to explain it when it's not 4 am and I have work the next day.

explain it. I've explained it several times now. I'm not going to do it again.
How is this the one and only thing that's managed to catch your attention, yet you somehow don't know that I've addressed it?

Sorry.
Fortunately, I can still help. To be clear, it's not the dissonance Shrike (or I) have problems with. It's that Noraa's is the ramshackle mess I expect from scum Noraa and yours is the tidy, well-organized uncontroversial stack of perfectly aligned 8x11 papers with the appropriate date, time, stamp of approval, wax seal and signature affixed to each that I cannot imagine you creating based on my knowledge of you, primarily based on the interactions I've had with you OOG and your Death Curse town play, and thus not appearing to come from you as town.
You don't look like you look when you're town or not playing, Noraa looks EXACTLY like she looks as scum. The apparent "dissonance" is therefore actually a consonance, at a higher level of understanding.
Fun fact about death curse, I was still in my first newbie game when I joined that, DC was my first large and with all the big names and personalities in here, well you know how anxiety goes. Hell I was even scared of Nora

Biggest difference is GHOST and Shrike are being open about who is doing what, where from us it's a combination of 3 who are keeping quiet, though we all have our tells :3

Anyone else think 7 scum is a weird thing to point out? Like unless I've missed a trick I can't find where the scum numbers are said anywhere and that seems really weighted
This game? If she's scum she'd not bad if that's what you're asking. If you're asking for a meta read, please don't.

Legitimately scary to be scanning through in the early morning and catch Flea calling me by an old nom de guerre. I had to check post history and logs. I'm Curse, by the way (and that's actually my real and legal first name now), but GhostQlyph is an old username of mine, one of a small batch (including CHOLERA!, haloGen, null & void, ALTERANT) that were/are used almost exclusively for trolling purposes.
You're a newer player, Flea? Somehow that blows my mind. Honestly. You do not have the energy at all.
I'm promising myself right now that I'm not going to comment on anything else. I need to pack a day bag and make ready all my stuff, this game is a distraction I don't need right now. If you see me post again just hurl rocks or something.
In post 1208, Save The Dragons wrote:I'm still sus (that means i think you're scum, Roden) on Roden but i think we've milked this stone for all the blood it's going to give
See, the problem is I usually find Roden to match my mental model of what town play looks like, and has escaped me as scum on more than one occasion. To see Roden play that feels as scummy as this is weird, I don't know how else to describe it.
The main problem is this LLD/Greeting unalignment issue. I don't have a strong read on LLD at this point, but Greeting is one of my top two townreads (STD being the other) from my first read through, and I don't see any reasonable basis for concluding any associative between the two, and the explaination given is no explaination at all.
I get the impression that the way Roden is trying to deal with this is a kind of treat the whole accusation as silly and anyone asking about it as being worthy of shade, and hope it'll all blow over, which it kindof has. I hoping that by continuing to bring attention back around to it, and hammer than it's not just you thinking that way, that Roden might hopefully be forced to abandon that approach.
TLDR: I'm going to continue at least attempting to milk here. I think it'll prove worth the effort one way or another.

to you or anyone else.
Like can you show me where you've argued against the accusation I made? You also claimed to have read the whole game, yet you only have three town reads and one scum read. All based on a couple exchanges that happened 30+ pages ago.

I played a bit around 2010/11-ish and wasn't much good at it then either I also have occasionally stupid levels of confidence and big JOAT energy, like it happens IRL as well. [this is a whole vent i'm not dumping in here xD]
I have no idea where Ghost come from but it got lodged in instead of CURSE, I assume pokémon brain kicked in and equated curse to being an amazing ghost type move.
Anyway, go forth, pack, have fun <3 will see you later

Only in the same sense you could show me where you explained why LLD and Greeting are unaligned.
Something feels off with you bears, but I'm struggling to articulate what exactly it is, and I'm wondering if I simply struggling to get a handle on how to deal with a hyrda in general rather than evidence of scumminess on your part.
The fact that, for instance, I'm struggling to figure out which of the heads 'Kiepin' relates to, despite the earlier explanation, isn't helping matters.
