And I think there's a wagon on midway so it does feel bandwagony but I don't know what Innocentvillager has been saying about midway all along so it's hard to call him out when it's possible he's been wanting this anyway.In post 1844, innocentvillager wrote:VOTE: midwaybear
i still really don't want to kill the best town player on d1 (yes that is a real thought i have as town too) but ya idk what my tiger read is anymore
despite iv admitting he sometimes does "too stupid to be scum" stuff earlier in this game, i am tempted to townread his nonsense vote/unvote of skitterIn post 1844, innocentvillager wrote:VOTE: midwaybear

The fact that you have history with Innocentvillager makes sense just like it did with Iconeum and I can understand being a little gun shy if you've found him scummy as town before. Do you have anything that you have noticed town-him does as scum, specifically? Do you thinkDatisi wrote:at first i probably was scumreading iv, but like the big point there is that like i scumread iv every game lol. like he breathes in a scummy way. so the fact that i was scumreading him doesn't actually say anything about his alignment (or my own for that matter bc i would probably have to fake that) and like i am aware that he sounds vvvv scummy to me regardless his alignemtn so you knwo
The first part of that 100% yes that's how I saw you in that game. Second part is about what I think I'm seeing here. After seeing your first game I got the impression you have a strong scum game and I think a few people even said as much. So I don't think seeing you struggle to find that towniness is a scum tell for you. So I'm reading this as probably genuine and it makes sense to me.Datisi wrote: when i am obvtown, i am obvtown. like. that game you saw we played together, was one of my *holy shit datisi is town* games. my towngame sometimes looks like that - and general rule of thumb is that it looks like that when i have reads i have a degree of confidence in (not necessarily when they're good reads lmao) so. then there are games like this one, where... i don't have very confident reads at the start here. and like the thing is, 95% of my reads are gut, and i still don't know exactly what triggers them, so it's not like i can actually try to make the gamestate be so i get more reads -- p much all i can do is tap in the dark and poke around until my gut does get triggered by stuff.
This is eerily relatable and a big part of why I stopped playing and why I stopped being IC in newbie games. Do you think skitter was doing that to you intentionally as opposed to actually seeing something in your play here?Datisi wrote: this ability to make gutreads early-to-midgame is especially hindered if most of the game thinks i'm scum already - that is what i was talking about with skitter. those instances are *very* rare, but they happen, and i think skitter is aware of that considering she was there for one of my meltdowns like that. which is why i was like "oh skitter is trying to make me relive newbie 1992 huh" (which, fun fact, was *the game* that made me swear on never playing in a newbie game again because holy shit i am not a good example to newbies but anyway uh)
This feels really genuine and could be proven wrong if it isn't.Datisi wrote: also fun fact fun fact: whenever someone was like "i played with datisi in [game] and he was obvtown there and he's not obvtown here" i was town!! every single goddamn time that happened i was town!! anyway
Actually what I was seeing was North seemed to be playing very carefully with you and that made me wonder if she's worried you'll latch on and tunnel her or something. So I wanted to know if there was any history. When there wasn't I figured who would know better how the two of you play together than the two of you. I'm not gonna ask her because if she's doing something as scum, naturally she's probably not going to say "oh I'd do what I'm doing here". So figured I'd ask. Do you think I'm way off and should drop it or is this something that is possible?Datisi wrote: i honestly have NO CLUE how nsg would be approaching me as scum because (1) i don't know what nsg's opinion is of my towngame considering we played like, very briefly and (2) i have no clue how scum!nsg operates, what she finds important, how she plans to win the game so like -- i genuinely have no idea how nsg would approach me
if that question was supposed to be "how do you plan to read nsg", the answer is sorta "wait until a bit later game, if she stops doing Really Good Analsysiy start pressuring her and go from there"
not sure what "noticed town-him does as scum" means... and i don't know. my first encounter with iv was when we were scumpartners, so it's difficult for me to say what first impressions of him *should* be.In post 1856, Sleepless Assassin wrote:Do you have anything that you have noticed town-him does as scum, specifically? Do you think I'm falling into that same trap seeing him for the first time?
why does seeing my one "good" towngame make you think i have a strong scum game? is it anything other than "well good town game = probably a strong player = probably a strong scum game"? not really ai, i'm just curious.In post 1856, Sleepless Assassin wrote:After seeing your first game I got the impression you have a strong scum game and I think a few people even said as much.
i don't actually know, you could be onto something. the only things i know about nsg's scumgame are general things that i've heard from other people here and there, which is that she's lower effort as scum, struggles to keep motivation up, and similar stuff. so in that frame, it's not *impossible* i guess.In post 1856, Sleepless Assassin wrote:Do you think I'm way off and should drop it or is this something that is possible?
mm, not sure if i could identify it precisely. i think it's his tendency to sometimes be troll-y or meme around as town, which i often i register as him avoiding solving. and i think his town mind sometimes uses moonlogic which i register as him bs'ing. those are my best guesses.In post 1859, Sleepless Assassin wrote:I meant what town-him does that looks scummy.
- why do you think pooky is town?In post 1860, Sleepless Assassin wrote:Pooky - I think town.
Skitter - Something feels different this game but can't figure out what. Maybe its just that she's pressuring me this time.
Well I basically started the recent midway wagon just briefly hopped off to vote other slotsIn post 1851, Sleepless Assassin wrote:Like this is the only new post not about me:And I think there's a wagon on midway so it does feel bandwagony but I don't know what Innocentvillager has been saying about midway all along so it's hard to call him out when it's possible he's been wanting this anyway.In post 1844, innocentvillager wrote:VOTE: midwaybear

Can you ask for specific ones because I can't elaborate on them all some are just gut feels and/or no reason to SR them and suchIn post 1550, midwaybear wrote:Thanks flow
I might tr Cakez for 1544. I'm not super familiar with Cakez scum meta, but I don't think he hops in to take a shot at me and dips out. It's sorta annoying, but maybe town. Cakez, can you elaborate on some of your reads (preferably who you read as town right now). Ik you said you mostly agree with Faker, but it would be helpful to hear your own thoughts.
I always tell people I matched their thoughts if I notice it it's not specific to youIn post 1551, Prism wrote:I've become increasingly less sold on my Cakez townlean, pretty rote stuff to fake, but we will see. Going out of his way to tell me we matched rubbed me the wrong way as I served not as an adamant defender but a slight one in Warehouse 13. He might be hoping for the same here.
Might need to meta dive for the Pooky stuff for more recent stuff.
People always ask me this and it's so annoyingIn post 1565, innocentvillager wrote:i reskimmed cakez's iso and don't rly remember why i thought he was towny
i think it was the bold calling of people scumfuckers having an aggressive tone
but it feels like he's mostly just been memeing since, which feels a little in contrast to how his iso reads like he's found the scum already
Cakez if u still have those same 4 people as scum (midway, pooky, mare, SS) why don't i really see you pushing them more? like how confident are you on those ppl
Not a big fan of this postIn post 1569, northsidegal wrote:surprised to not see myself in this - are you townreading me?In post 1451, flow trap wrote:Current POE is like: Andante 3 times Midway, SS, Pooky, Mare, Cat, Skitter; Maybe Sleepless

Last tier is unorder and I like first two tiers for town. I'll try to flesh out reasoning later.
Mare, what's your read on skitter rn? Faker, what did you think of catboi's early read on me.
I'm missing something here cuz it looked like a total out of nowhere fling to meIn post 1620, Faker wrote:With this in mind, Cakez's attack on Pooky for the read on me made no sense to me and struck a similar chord, because Pooky's vote made total sense.
not sure SS posts this as scumIn post 1646, Something_Smart wrote:I need to stop lying to myself and pretending that I'm going to reread the past pages and make meaningful commentary.
I completely disagree on MWB and I'm curious what you found townie in that postIn post 1679, Andante wrote:Reading this, I TR midwaybear, I think more than Faker, and I'm pretty sure Faker is town, so midway and faker town I think

I actually thought it was decently townie and enough to slot him out of my nullbinIn post 1689, Andante wrote:ok, I'm caught up... that Sleepless post... I have some serious thoughts about it, I'm interested in others thoughts first though, cause that did not scream town at all to me, but since sleepless is caught up, sleepless should be back to normal, and not only communicate in paragraphs like that

What are you expecting me to do here? I never write cases, I've already called out people as scumfucks, I'm voting my top SR. What do you want from me here?
