can you give me like the top liner for why you're voting CMM instead of Dann? I'm considering switching but kinda want to see what Dann does on return

, thoughts not changing for me at this point (i may need to start doing individual ISOs), but it did make me think of marci. i'm thinking maybe marci was trying to pocket me in . because i found myself subconsciously liking them a bit, but then fireisred made the comment about making sure i was on the watch for people pocketing me. which, of course my first thought was "i would never let that happen" but then i'm like "oh wait.." so hmm.

Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I am going to word this nicely.
But was this post made with the intention of trying to annoy me or just made without thinking?
I don't know.

I am going to calm down now because this post shouldn't have bugged me as much as it should and you probably didn't intend it to.
Datisi why do you think this is a townie post? kinda just feels like run of the mill AtE to me, I'm not connecting with why town!FB would be reactive to that, especially if he has any prior experience with Frogster? like I feel like as town Fire would know this idea is just kind of ridiculous, why is he bugged by it instead? and the last sentence just kinda vibes a little pacifist / telling-emotions-instead-of-showing-them to me

I don't think it's a super scummy post, I can imagine it from town, it's just kinda NAI to me overall, but I'm curious why it pings town to you
is "i felt it in my bones" an acceptable answer? i don't really know. i think i thought that scum-firebringer could use that post as an opportunity to fake content or enter a fight with frogster, and if he wasn't using it for that, then he'd just ignore it. and the response instead feels like in-the-middle response that doesn't fit either play.

typing it out, it does feel much more shaky than it did in my head, so.
I will straight up disregard all reason if you have a PR dream again. You can come back and be like, “I dreamt that Locke is a N2 Bulletproof Multitasking Cop and Self-Targeting Doctor,” and I will go, “Okay, Locke kill it is then.”

I think you’re salty about last game and want to exact vengeance upon the one that sniffed you out, or at the very least you’re scared of a repeat
this feels wild enough to be +town ?
this is valid
Ausuka actually has the context for why I thought this

{Datisi, fireisredsir}
{ConManMick, Dannsflor, VP Baltar}

Ftr I am starting to reconsider Datisi because even though I think he's been scummy I suck hard at reading him and I don't think he's doing much in the pursuit of like being Super Town and positioning himself for endgame? Does that makes sense??

Also these reads are more "vibes" than "people sorted by actual probability of being scum based on their scumrange and my ability to read them"
Noticing multiple SRs on Dann, I do wanna know what’s up w that because I feel like he does have an odd habit of getting yeeted D1 as scum, tho only 1 instance comes to mind immediately

Do you think scum!firebringer would make a play like this intentionally to get town read?
Bruce: Terry. I've been thinking about something you once told me... and you were wrong. It's not Batman that makes you worthwhile; it's the other way around. Never tell yourself anything different.

considering not even i understood why i was townreading that post until 5 minutes ago... no, i don't think scum!firebringer could've analyzed my brain well enough to make that post, knowing i (or anyone else) was gonna townread it

I get it, I wish I had a stronger read on you too. No offense but I've kind of glided over a lot of your posts because they weren't toward me/about things I was interested at the time. I could ISO you if you want a more effortful version but I'm realizing it's 4pm and I have a 5pm deadline so I should log off now

He's towards the bottom of my reads and I think he reads as pretty stilted so far, and also I like wagon trains, so

I'm not either, but in a 20p game, there are probably like 4 scum. So seems like that's accurate.

I guess what I'm saying is that I think what you posted looks like you're saying something, but in reality you're not saying much at all.

Maybe some math person will tell me I'm dumb, but that's my gut reaction.
