Man goes to doctor. Says he's depressed. Says life seems harsh and cruel. Says he feels all alone in a threatening world where what lies ahead is vague and uncertain. Doctor says, "Treatment is simple. Great clown Pagliacci is in town tonight. Go and see him. That should pick you up." Man bursts into tears. Says, "But doctor...I am Pagliacci.

That just because I'm good at making the game more active and less apathy-inducing for other people doesn't mean that I can't be in a state where I'm struggling to self-motivate.

Fair enough, i feel like that too
I kinda only said it to see if it would spark any sort of interesting convo, tbh

I think that tonally Arkias is highly likely to be scum but I'm somewhat reluctant to lead on them because I think if they're town it'll go badly.
Naerys -- Has not made a post at all. Like, at all.
GeorgeBailey -- RVS. Null note.
Arkias -- Clearly scum. The scummiest of the bunch.
bugspray -- Town, probably. Also weird.
BigFatDonald -- I think I agree with skitter here that they are town. Just new, even if they're acting weird.
Sera Masumi-- I see them as town. A lot of it comes from the whole lack of agency moment, with nothing to go on at the moment.
PvtUrist (SE) -- Null. Also watch more anime.
skitter30 (SE) -- Probably town, to be honest.
RadiantCowbells (SE) -- I feel like Radiant isn't actually doing the whole progressing thing they're known for, but at the same time, it's fairly early.
The best way to finish the RVS, from the wiki, is to start trying to gather information. Out of all the people, the person I just want more from is Naerys, but I'm against policy votes on principle. So second best applies.
VOTE: PvtUrist.
I think giving a readslist at this point in the game with this many townreads in a game like this where everyone is lurking is extremely, extremely scum indicative
and I think that his vote on bugspray was also tonally very scum indicative

I'm only giving a read list and trying to talk about something so this conversation and thread has a heartbeat. There's not much discussion, and outside of a few people, most people are under 5-6 posts. That goes even less when you disregard shitposts.

I don't think you end up with 5 townreads on page 5 as town.

I also think that your interaction with me regarding not liking the way I'm progressing but being reluctant to actually call me out for it is scum indicative.

I think the readlist itself was fine, the vote on pvturist was meh, a vote on u i think would have made more sense given their reads

I think having 5 townreads is a priori sketchy at this stage of the game and I'm surprised that you think differently?

I dont have a strong opinion on that tbh, i can see it coming from town
Also i think the 'read' on themselves was good
