Menalque needs one more vote to receive vacation
I would've expected something like
"nobody hammer without intent"
or
"give mena a chance to claim b4 hammer"
if you wanted to um deter more votes.
I started to, but realized I couldn't find a way that felt in character to me >_>

Someone here is getting townread by meta even though they are scum.
Otherwise this game doesn’t make any sense.
And i kinda feel for Chara. If they are town here they’re not really getting voted because we genuinely scumread them, but because we literally cannot agree on a vote because there’s always someone saying: "nO!! X iS lItErALlY NoT sCuM hERe!"

I was starting to think I might've been the crazy one and the legendary 1800 was actually scummy when all of skitter/Pooky/Chara were vehemently against me, so it's relieving to see Farkran/Norwee/Luca come in and mirror essentially everything I was thinking on the matter. The way the factions have developed in this game are really fascinating, this is most interesting day 1 've been in for ages.
skitter's venting I actually find pretty towny, in that her exasperation indicates she truly does believe in the arguments she's making, so if she's scum, she thinks she's actually completely in the right here, or she's just town. Farkran is obvtown. Luca is still obvtown. Norwee still town and the mind melding helps a lot. Pooky 'm not as sure on but pushing and calling Fark scum probably doesn't have much scum motivation there even if I completely disagree with the reasoning? I townread him less than I did before though. I don't hate Luca's take that it's a TvTvTvT. skitter being the least confident because that's a recent change in heart and the rest of the game's content and uneasy feelings do still exist.
Uh, what else. Chara! Chara, Chara, Chara... I found Chara's vote on me really strange as well, and the way they framed how they disliked me reconsidering while they agree with the reasoning which made me reconsider is weird. They said town sometimes doubles down on reasoning and is antagonistic, and are applying the inverse to say me
not
doing that is scummy, when I don't think they should be applying the inverse there?
I also didn't like 2122 because Chara acknowledged they haven't read most of the game and were playing a 5 page game or whatever, so how could they know when they haven't see what I townread Lucy for and why?
I don't know exactly why but this gives me scum vibes
Maybe it's how Day only really calls out Chara/suspects them when a wagon had already emerged on them. Something about the tone feels artificial/performative as well
Anyway I'm starting to think there's scum in my TR's and right now I'm looking at Day/Pooky.

Out for real now.
And then a quick jump off after receiving a couple of votes, maybe Day is aware that he looks a little opportunistic?
town fark
town lucy
town mena
scum skitter
scum pooky
which means:
scum skitter and scum pooky saw town mena getting run up to e1 and pushed to death and decided hey lets go rescue him so we can push townlucy instead and lose all towncred to hard push one miselim instead of just taking the layup miselim thats sitting right there and being pushed by fark&lucy?
like lol wtf
thats not a real belief
that heeby jeeby nonsense
like the rest of farks garbage iso
hes managed to piss me off enough that instead of waiting for my laptop to dry out im going to go to best buy today and getting a new computer just to case out why hes scum
VOTE: farkran
die die die
I don't like this either. Farkran isn't banking on the Skitter/Pooky team, he scumreads you both independently and SR's you more than Skitter.
Really don't feel any town vibes from this whatsoever. I feel like Farkran's SR on Pooky is genuine whereas Pooky's SR is manufactured

And in terms of emotions I felt like Farkran's emotions were genuine whereas yours (in that post at least) don't seem real

also when you say you don't like that post
you should look at what I'm responding to.
taking posts in isolation without looking at context is kind of silly.

Like here's the thing about using anger and emotion to be townread.
its a slippery slope.
when town does it, scum feel compelled to reciprocate. Things get more and more heated to the point where the thread becomes unpleasant.
I am easily capable of faking emotions as scum to get townread. I simply do not feel the need to escalate and make the thread painful to read for everyone.
I know I'm town, if I were to escalate my emotion and make Fark-scum escalate his act, it will just spiral into unreadable nonsense that is tough for everyone.

Also Farkran changed his stance on you/Skitter being s/s, but you're still tunneling away?
Posted: Sun Mar 14, 2021 10:13 pm
by PookyTheMagicalBear
I believe Fark is scum for reasons other than that stance
I have made it very clear.
I believe he is the most dangerous of all the scum because of his positioning, skill and relationship to the rest of the player pool.
If he were to do things that make me think he is town, I will reconsider this.

I don't think he is looking for scum.
I believe he is looking for who he can push and kill.
There is a difference.

Like I usually do the power wolf push when I am scum, because I am very good at that.
I see his actions today and he looks exactly like how a powerwolf is prodding at a jenga structure looking for which block he can move and get away with killing.

Pooky you criticized Norwee's reads list a little while back, I'd be interested to see what your reads list looks like right now?
he looks for weakness and pushes when he thinks he can kill.
he tried for mena
now he is parking his vote on me while he looks for his next victim
if he gets traction with me he will push here, if he doesnt he will move on
he is not really sorting, he is looking for kills
Posted: Sun Mar 14, 2021 10:24 pm

I dunno what mena is doing this game
but i know he's the easiest person to push at the table
he is like barely here, his takes are not great, he's very far out of town meta, if he's town he's the wounded baby gazelle trailing at the back of the herd. he's the one the scummy lions will pick off first.
So I just look at who is trying to kill mena, and see which one looks the shadiest out of all of them. and that's fark. The timing, the progression, the way he lobbies for votes, how quickly he glides on and off. it's like textbook opportunism.
