I didn't watch Magical Girls after I died.
I can swear I misread scum!Oversoul in a game besides rolecall though I can't name it right now.

I'm going to UNVOTE:
Minorly because of remembering how much oversoul underrates himself and that he could pull off forgetting how he owned me in role call due to that.
But mostly because I was almost positive it was volxen posting, and it'd be scummier coming from him

Why should I seriously vote four pages in? I know nothing of her except what I've seen for a few pages, so to me it's more worth waiting to see how someone acts normally to establish a baseline before applying any pressure when confronted with a player I don't know.

As an aside, past the wine I don't find pops particularly scummy.

lady angel
you have a pokemon avatar
and it reminds me of sunkern and sunflora
so i like it
i think it might be the same generation as sunkern and sunflora
just the one that is better at drowsing to sleeps ans stun spore instead of healsing and solar beam
but i'm not sure
if your avatar is secretly after gen 3
speak now or forever hold your peeace
but dont speak now
speak silent
use
the silence
because i will buddy you less
because i dislike gen four and after
lie to me
and say it's pkmn rubies
that's how to pocket me
lady angel
i empathize with your post
because you seem frustrated with wine
or maybe not frustrated
but that you are explaining to gif
that it is on one side of the table
and on the other side of the table there is other stuff
like when i have friends over for board games
and on one side of the table
there is vodka
and on the other side
there is artifact cards that cost influence points
and stuff
but what i'm getting at
i feel bad
for your WIFOM experience
i think it is antitown to induce wifom
because wifom is not the only way or best way or 3rd best way to sort
but townie or scum can trigger it at any time
i have triggered it
but not for wifom itself it is just i am stressed out about games where i am not impactful and i lose
so i am sorry
i am gonna try to play more straight shooter
from here
for help
but listen
i think you are scumreading oversoul for being emo myspace "i'm obvscum" scum
and that is actually just oversoul
being emo myspace "i'm obvscum scum"
cause like
people who think they are really bad at scum
falsely
think they have no scumrange
so if they post something like
"blueberry pancakes are better than plain panckaes"
which is objectively true
they feel like they should be townlocked
immediately
and that is kind of the oversoul status
of this game
atm
but actually oversoul is better than he thinks at scum
and actually putting honey on his pancakes and pretending it is good
is disgusting
but he thinks ppl think its normal
so he doesn't understand how impressive he is
that he can eat that
without regurgitating it
like a heavy excessively sweet layer of honey
anyway
i think you should wait for more vollxen posting
before wagoning Not all DNS servers are scum
plus GiF wnats you to do that and I am shifyt eyes at him
I wam not even sure if he is scum he might be scum or town who cares a lot about his bounty i don't even know
but
you can read volxen with more times
please calculate
i'm gonna spoiler this cause idk how many times i hit return at this point it feels like lot
but fan the solar rays uponst thge shadowy dark type pokemonss lady grass grass
keep an eye on DNS server is ok but oversoul omgus is in the fairy nature
i think this game has good starts
Pine is the darker image of the coward status
Gif is antitown for assasin bonus objective of mafki
single posters hide hidden lies of wariness
regularly consume iron

Pops how do you go from claiming no understanding of my play to accurately psychoanalyzing me?

Ugh, not a fan of this.

If you can't actually confirm yourself right now, but might be able to later, what was the point in saying you could confirm yourself town?
Actually, never mind. I'm pretty sure that's also fake, then.
No, I think your misinterpreting it. Whether or not we successfully kill our assassin target is not how we can confirm ourselves. However, why we are confirmed town and how we can do it is tangentially related to the assassin mechanic itself.

Well, I'm either really misinterpreting you or you're probably lying. But whatever. If it happens it happens. In any case, I don't want to be some idiot who accidentally reveals useful information--or gets baited by scum into falling for something, so let's just drop it.

I'm kind of doubtful on this, though. This feels a bit of an overly confident read on that part of them.

"No understanding of your play" isn't an accurate representation. I'm not confident I'll get the final answer right on you. Especially because I always townread your tone. Spectating town Oversoul, hm he reads townie on tone. Playing with scum Oversoul hm he seems townie on tone. Playing on a scumteam with Oversoul idk tbh he seems townie on tone. Oversoul is moderating the game, somehow he seems townie on tone.
There's nothing inscrutable about the individual building blocks of your play. Those blocks are just covered in sprinkles. If you were a solo slot I would work a lot harder on, ignore the sprinkles pops, look at the shapes of the blocks, why are the blocks arranged in a swastika, isn't that a little troubling pops, stop eating the sprinkles. And I'll probably be efforting to do that on the part of reading your slot that comes from you. But I think I want to 80% base it on volxen.

I don't like DNS at all for day one lynch right now if that's not clear yet btw

I still think that it’s suspicious how quickly you backed off of your push on us. And how you are claiming that you originally voted for us because you thought that I was making the posts that Oversoul was making (and that somehow those posts would be more scummy coming from me than from him), and then you only unvoted us only upon realizing that it was Oversoul posting all along. You are familiar with both Oversoul and I (especially Oversoul), and we have very different posting styles. I don’t think that it’s easy to mix the two of us up. Why did you think that I was making those posts?

Do you really think even if I were scum I would lie about extra stuff I don't have to lie about in order to back off of a scumread? As scum I can pick any reason I want so why make a web of lies and just give myself the chance to forget which thread goes where?

But since you think I am -so familiar- with posting styles and there is too much dramatic irony here I trawled for all the examples of me not telling hydra heads apart and getting teased and or trolled for it. No in hindsight it was not worth the time, apparently town don't reconsider their positions in light of new information, I have recently learned that, and I townread you right now so I already know this was an exercise in futility. Vanity? No exercise in the opposite of vanity. Self deprecation! that's the word. The word that sounds like you're crumpling up a coke can but it bends in just the right places so that sound is satisfying.

You’re acting as though it’s too far-fetched for scum!you to fake misunderstanding which of our heads was posting so that you could justify backing out of a bad push on our slot after you realized that it was a mistake. I disagree that it’s too far-fetched. Yes, there are other fake reason(s) scum!you could have come up with to justify backing out of your push on us, but so what? Pretending to have mixed Oversoul and I up gives you an easy out on that front – there’s no need for scum!you to come up with anything more elaborate to justify backing out of your push on us. And since you apparently think that Oversoul’s posts are towny coming from him but those same posts would have been scummy coming from me, I don’t get why you didn’t simply ask which head was posting up front, rather than defaulting to assuming that I was writing the posts and then voting for our slot solely on that basis.

What exactly is the basis of your townread on our slot? Are you individually townreading both my posts and Oversoul’s posts?

That's the thing, though. 53 and this makes me feel like you want to be voted, which naturally makes me a little worried about actually voting you because due to the amount of wine involved in something like this, so I'd rather hold off until things develop a bit more.

That being said, UNVOTE:
Hmm I detect cowardice.
You seem quite hung up on my unvoting what was very obviously a joke vote...

The post I was talking about in that post reeked of wine, which is generally going to be enough to get me to look at you, but probably not vote until we can sort out the wine first.

Most of DNS's defence has felt genuinely awful, being mostly OMGUS and wine without any real substance beyond "You guys are wrong because I'm town and I can prove it during the day even with only two votes on me". It's been really bad and seems like an extreme overreaction to just putting two votes down, so back on I go.

No.
Oh fine. “She doesn’t do this” is in fact different from “It’s not a meta tell”. The first biases the reader to judge tris innocent by implying that her strange posting isn’t a pattern and therefore is genuine. The second is a neutral comment without predisposition.
