@gjt: what's your opinion of rex so far this game?
I think what you posted reads more town. Wimpy's slot is town imo so Ank must be town. I read FL as town. I don't recognize Bob's posts as belonging to his scumgame, he's much more assertive here, so slight town lean.
I'm not sold on your Gjt scumlean.
I think joges or invis is where it's at, despite invis being lolrandom because if there's any day to deal with this, it's day 1 imo.
Looking back, I don’t think Nomnom bussed indirectly here. It’s unnecessary. I reread her conversation with Nicholai, and they were trying to work Nicholai. Invisibility mixed in with genuineness and being at the wrong place at the wrong time looks like they were setup to look scummy. I think Invis is town.
Joges was also town read by Nich in a good way, so I think I’m good with it. Nomnom wants to get sold on Gjt, so it happens then a wagon forms.
Bob/Wimpy slot look like where Nomnom would mention scum partners, tbh.
So Ank must be town and insistence that Wimpy looks townie looks really bad in hindsight too.
i know it's slightly contradictory to read this post as town and then question it, but i'm TRing it's tone(?) rather than the read itself. why did you call omnom town after her interaction with gjt? can her frustration not come from scum?
Nom tends to struggle keeping her tone and thought processes consistent with each other as scum
She's already showing consistency
Another.

I have never not been right on Ankamius after 5 posts of reading her and I don't intend to start being wrong today
the bob meta you mentioned does look like it came out of nom's ass though
You have no reads on anyone and are voting Invis because he's lolrandom. Is this correct? Also, apart from calling him a dumbass, you don't lean either town or scum on Gjt?
In post 775, Nicholai wrote:right, wimpo's probably town. it was an overreaction but his tone read as genuine frustration. ank is a great replacement for that slot, she'll get some work done
omnom's frustration at Gjt seemed real, but could come from either alignment i believe. could definitely see scum genuinely frustrated at being scumread/questioned for such bizarre reasons. omnom, could i ask where your me/invis suspicions arise from?
Explained it earlier: I think joges' vote on sala early on was bad and that pinged me, and you two sheeped that vote so it left me with an even worse impression, so I think there's scum in the trio. I think the follow-up looks worse than joges and since I won't get anything from invis I'm voting you to get a reaction and talk.

In post 782, nomnomnom wrote:Unsure how I feel about Gjt by the way. Obviously the reasoning is bad but the fact that I've seen a lot of town players so self centered about what they would do as town and using that to scumhunt (despite that being bad) sounds tonally ok?
Nothing jumped to me about the slot when I skimmed anyway so

This looks good for Looker, actually. Unless it’s scum theatre, this looks good for Looker. I was actually a bit suspicious of Looker on and off, even through this read through. Now, this can be faked, but I’ll give a more definitive stance on it later

like this is the least assertive I've ever seen bob, and I also don't really remember nom ever using meta. although usually scum fake meta townreads on town and fake meta scumreads on scum so I'm not sure that actually spews bob scum, although I still don't think he's really easily readable as town here

yeah I agree looker looks town, that's what I said back in the way back beginning of my iso

the only read from the start I'm reconsidering at this moment is Pine and that's only because he checked into the thread and then vanished
maybe not scummy but I was hoping for some chattiness

Bear in mind, I thought your predecessor was scum.

that can be interpreted as you pushing me saying you sheeped someone, but I never did
that can be interpreted as you asking me who you should sheep, but I never indicated being that into the game yet
that can be interpreted as you asking me to go into my townreads... I guess? but that's still a weird interpretation when it comes out of nowhere
all three of those give very different answers and depending on my mood I can interpret it in any of those three ways

Not much time and there's a chance this push on me is scummy with the really bad reasoning so it's worth pursuing. Invis is never going to pick off so yeah.
In post 939, Ankamius wrote:and yes the fact that you're scumreading my slot makes it even more ??? to me
Why? I’m a giant reactionary player, and I both A) create gamestate wide reactions, and B) elicit reactions from specific players.
I’m helpful to the core engine of a game to progress, even whilst barely attending.
Still hated this exchange from Ank. Also, Nomnom tried to distract right in the middle of it by pushing to Gjt.

I think I had joges as town but only by like 3 points I think I actually need spew from Pine to feel good about that slot

btw in a world where ank actually was scum here, that would be highly scum indicative for gjt. nom's first impulse when a buddy is being pushed is to bus her other buddy. that being said ank is still just town

I will probably be playing in a way which you won't like and will observe a lot more before posting as a lot of what I see is basing current posts from previous games.
From what I've seen if Nicolai is Town probably won't last long because from experience Scum tend to hate active Townies. Chances are we will mislynch D1 unless someone seriously slips which is why scum often stay quiet D1 (not helping myself there) they'll spread their votes across Town. Not sure how many you usually get on a team here, but one I expect to vote/push one of their team mates. A lot of this phase is keeping track of the votes and who people chop and change too.
I don't have any strong leads yet, maybe a couple now leaning a little towards Town, but as said previously in my mind you are all Scum until you have convinced me otherwise
this is one of the most political things I've ever seen in a mafia game
this is always the funniest answer to any situation
What another incredibly rough trajectory from Ankamius. Played the me vote as a joke, but it came right after I voted for Nomnom, and I’m nulled on the list.
Also the Gjt political post in hindsight’s rough.
If Nomnom didn’t get flipped this wouldn’t have looked bad yet either, but even the Salamence was town is poor.

People are voting him because they don’t know who to vote. We don’t have a lot of info in the game yet, so it shows that the Gjt lynch is something that scum are 100% okay with happening.
He’s not scum.
I can’t recall a single on of their posts. This is entirely based on the sociological gamestate
you towncased him too and I'm also too lazy to respond to that tonight
I’m never lynching Gjt. I hard hard defended him Day 1, look at how it happened in that post I just put out, and then we ended on Nomnom.
You also haven’t town cased Ank, you’ve just been stating they’re town despite there being multiple reasons why they are just scum. Ankamius isn’t bad town, and if she’s town here, she’s had quite possibly the worst reads she’s ever had.

while you're right that ank had some bad day 1 reads, and while it is true that ank is a strong player, I still think she's town here the vast majority of the time
there was one thing that would have made me feel better about her but I'm not going to get into that
I do strongly disagree that wimpy was scummy though. I feel like you are very heavily projecting feelings you have about rb and persivul on that slot. Even if you're right that I'm townreading it for NAI reasons (which I'm not), the arc of your case is "this is how rb would play scum" but what I'm telling you is that's how Wimpy plays town and this isn't fucking rb
