Which doesn't make sense because I'm not scumreading you
No I mean are you doing something that I by all rights should pick up on immediately but currently are not

I change my mind I think Michael Scott is more townie than scummy, which drops GL in my books. I just skimmed / read Jingle's paragon game for a while, and they are clearly capable of power wolfing, so their content level this game isn't scum indicative, and what they have given isnt awful.
Not a hard town read but not really wanting to vote here today
RC parried RC's Brigitte vote, then voted Brigitte herself

not sure which RC you're referring to here
I trust Reality Check in this game and I think everything they've said about soul reading you is genuine
Radiant I'm iffy on, but since I don't really have you as town I didn't mind him sheeping onto you, though the timing was odd as it felt like it was after you had already passed the first wave of scrutiny. and I don't see anything inherently wrong/scummy with the "they're defending another one of my scum reads" logic for why you look bad on Parm's slot - it's extremely similar to my initial feelings regarding MS - though I also think Parm is just town so I disagree with his conclusions here.
mbaki's position didn't really stand out to me? generally he's been hopping between you/Varsoon/Michael Scott and I like all of those votes so I haven't really had any issues with him lately.

I go after slots that are defending my other scummy slots all the time. If I can't vibe with the reasons someone is townreading someone else, especially if it's a slot I consider scummy, then my first thought is either scum defending a buddy or scum WKing a townie.
This question also feels uncomfortable to me, like you're trying to pigeonhole my play somehow? They made a read/post that strongly stood out to me as looking fundamentally fake, so I chased it. In some ways that's independent of how I feel about your slot. And while I stopped pushing for a wagon on you explicitly, it's not like I just wrote you off as town - I was/am in the process of re-evaluating my read on you and there's always other slots to pressure and engage with. Especially if I'm wrong in my early scum reads, I want to give people space to engage with others. see my latest interaction with MS as well
all their early posting felt forced/awkward to me, especially the mismatch between saying Enter's excited to play and then barely posting/engaging the next couple RL days after that
I've constantly felt they've been disengaged giving safe townreads but not making waves by way of pressure/scumreads
i still get that vibe but it's not something particularly indicative and I'm willing to shelve it if Reality Check thinks this is town Taly

you're going to love seeing me call varsoon and ms not scummy then
Johnny's ISO has very less filler and a lot of stances, and also attempts to rally a divided town, for example
I just don't see eye to eye with you this game I guess. "stances" aren't hard for scum to fake, it's whether those stances are genuine/town-serving that matters. he attempts to rally slots onto his desired lynch of choice, but I don't think it's a great lynch. and I think the MI6 agent persona he's using is an easy way to be charismatic and get townread while masking the fact that the arguments he's making are inherently weak

I can see the ms argument, still don't think Varsoon has done anything townie

Varsoon read is one I shouldn't really comment on, which says about as much as I want to. Its not super strong but not a lynch I want today.

the read is actually quite a bit more complex than that
but it essentially comes down to how I'm interpreting both of their playstyles/personalities and how they're interacting with each other and the game
I legitimately think a lot of the scumreads on that slot boil down to a quirk in Enter's personality

You said this then only linked Taly's games. Please provide Enter recent games, particularly scum ones.
I don't think Enter's a very good player from reading Paragon, and they were town there, so I need to see their scum game. Taly is definitely the better of the two heads which means the head to sort is Enter.

@RC, if you can't read Alonzo and don't think anybody can, that's yet another reason to lynch them.
