Barely participating? A bit. You made one RVS post and then vanished. That's not good.
You've also been acting fairly defensive, not answering questions, not sharing your thoughts. Not townie behavior.
You can argue semantics about it not being fluff if you like, but you didn't stick around to do anything with any reactions that you might've gotten.
But it's still very early

Again, though, you can say me being inactive is

not good

or

unhelpful

, but that doesn't really cross the bridge to be

being scum

, does it? Focusing solely on someone's activity is unfortunately a poor method of finding scum, sometimes there are players who lurk because they have a hard time faking it, but other times people are just naturally disinterested. (granted, my last scumgame offsite, I was miserably frozen and flaked out, but I don't think I'd have that problem here because it's so much slower paced).

I think "defensive" is a term that gets thrown around whenever someone bothers to defend themself, at all, which is a fairly natural thing in a game of mafia. It's an accusation that has very little meaning. Why do you see my not answering qusetions as scummy?

It's a very easy thing to comply with the requests of others if I were scum, and that's probably what I'd be doing. But if I feel like I'm getting asked a question that's useless or suspect I'm going to uestion them instead.

I can understand your frustration with me not simply plopping down a reads list but most of my thoughts right now are half-formed, I'm still in the process of feeling hings out. In my previous post, I was going to give some townreads then when I went back to reread people, I doubted myself and deleted that part of my post. I don't like making statements that amount to "eh, could go either way, who knows"

a null reading coming from an almost afk player

(Toriii), is like she is trying to "demostrate" he is townie yes or yes, and this made me feel like

I agree, I don't see the point on him holding out reads

on this note, do you have any thoughts on other people..?

In post 180, Meuh wrote:I asked everyone about people I wanted them to elaborate their read on, so either people they haven't or barely have mentioned/interacted with so we can build a fuller picture of the game, I feel like the partners are probably not interacting much, so asking these questions could help bait out scum/scum interactions, which would probably be pretty great.

I ask because it struck me as the sort of move that is designed to appear like someone is being helpful on the surface but is largely directionless and accomplishes nothing, a maneuver I've attempted as scum before. I don't think asking people for opinions on others based on putting names together seemingly at random accomplishes much.

I find myself with several people I fos, and not much in the way of townreads.

I'm curious, your defense of Catboi hereis pretty sudden, and pretty spirited.

In post 197, iN3krO wrote:@catboi If you answer me with another question I don't really feel like answering ya. I don't think it's a coincidence that you and NM are voting me, though I think it's quite reactive and doesn't indicate aligment of either of you.

Right now I don't, I just wanted to read more from him (and i said it 2 times before voting him). Problem is I'm not scumreading anyone T-T

I'm townreading Pear though

I feel like scum are fine with this gamestate, so I don't wanna be on either of these big wagons. VOTE:

Why do you think Torii is a better lynch than catboi or me?

In post 216, Meuh wrote:This is more related to gamestate, though. The game mellowed down after you and Catboi became the 2 main wagons, which gives me the impression that the mafia team either:
-Doesn't contain either of you
-Has its other teammate kinda inactive
