Exactly. You are present enough to have reads. So you are capable of producing content.

What do you think is town-indicative about your content.

You appear to be doing so right now. I am explaining why I voted for you a while ago.

Can you explain why you’re so opposed to Scorpio?

D1 isn’t fair to judge StD on imho
I went through something similar in a recent game
The fact StD is trying right now is town enough for me.

What do you think is town-indicative about your content.
What stances have you been unafraid to take?
I'm not playing this game anymore.
Is this even a question I can reasonably answer? I am tired of talking about myself. I am constantly being hounded for explanations of everything I do by half the game in a way that does not seem to apply to everyone else, and then I'm attacked for being too defensive. In this case, no one will even care about my answer, since if I know something looks town, I could have done it to look town. Why should I bother?
I have offered reads contrary to popular perception on multiple occasions. If you cannot be bothered to go and look, at this point, neither can I. I'm sick of this.

I am not "so opposed." I just do not particularly think he is scum. With Dragons actually doing something, I would prefer to pursue someone whose flip will give us a direction now.

I don't care that much about Scorp and if it happens it happens. You could make the argument that a somewhat scummy vt is a decent elimination but I'm not all that gung ho on him flipping scum but maybe. If he town flips though this is prob a scum influenced wagon.

I understand that this sort of process can be frustrating if you're town (or even if you're scum!), but I don't make these posts for no reason. My impression of your gameplay is that it is safe and largely following the momentum of the town. If I am wrong then I need you to prove it. When you say that you have "offered reads contrary to popular perception on multiple occasions" I need you to point it out to me because I don't see it.
You have said that you think scum is trying to mis-elim you, but I don't have a strong impression from you of who
are
the scum trying to miselim you. Regarding me and fire, arguably the two main players have been pushing you: You gave subtle indication of thinking fire might be scum early on but never went anywhere with it and most recently have expressed a strong townread. Apart from expressing that one thing I did looked town, you have not made much mention of a read of me. Is it a coincidence that myself and fire are also players that do not seem to be widely suspected?
The vote on STD came after I pointed out that you were largely following momentum, but it very much matches the safe play that I have expected from you. Voting a lower-activity player for pressure is not something scum would expect to be seen as controversial.
Idk, someone said me and you were scum and said it was too easy..
Since I’m not you just be based on that logic.

As an addendum to my post, I seriously do think that if tenebro thought that they were a miselim that scum is trying to achieve, that there would be more focus on players such as myself and fire, rather than... the players that everyone else is talking about.

Deas:
I was scumreading fua on this basis earlier for their poorly thought out attack on me. I am now ignoring the slot due to its vig claim. I am becoming concerned about you, if silently, because you're providing yet another vector by which I am forced to spend all my time defending myself, or so would be the case if I continue to play this game the way you want me to. fire made a strong push against me earlier and I scumread him for it, but in light of his convincing insights on fua, I have rethought this. In fact, that he is not at all concerned with how he is perceived may be a good sign.
One example of my being contrary was taking monkey's side against Aristeia. I was also one of the first to go after Datisi, but since everyone seemed to think I only did so because Yeet did first, I do not expect this to resonate. I feel there are likely more examples but again cannot be arsed to look for them and if you wish to park your vote on me for that, so be it.
But overall, at this point, it's the softer and more timid shading of me coming from other places that I'm more concerned about. I'm being kept in the elim pool and saved for later. No, I do not have an exhaustive list of who is guilty of this. My thinking is evolving in real time. Surely I don't read as someone who showed up to today with a plan given what a mess my suspicions have been.

Thank you for your response. I continue to think you are scum but there is nothing more that I expect you to answer at this stage.

This is wildly paranoid if you're town. It's also very vague
why hasn't my taking of monkey's side against aristeia shaped your read of me
I don't think you're partners with her, if that helps.
At the time, I didn't suspect her and your take was pretty hot. I just thought she was making a bad argument.
