like... emotionally it hits the right notes for a skitter who is so sick of being scum :>

i thought about the possibility that she was exasperated scum like "here we go again dealing with this" but i don't think she's irritated so openly by it if she is scum so i have a decent tr there

this is why i dont' get why you're ascribing town intent here, she could just as easily be scum who didn't realize this ...

but my point is that i'm not sure that she *was* replicating a town mindset so much as those were her true (scummy) thoughts

i'm not 100% sure what you're referring to here but yeah basically my issue was that she was voting me (i.e. implying she had a reason to scumread me) but as best as i could tell when i prodded a bit it didn't look like she really had any reason to, so it looked like more of a retaliatory vote than because she actually scumread my push
In post 294, Infinity 324 wrote:i don't think there's anything in particular that you should be townreading me for here, except perhaps for the fact that i'm pushing you right out of the gate, but you tend to be quite good at recognizing town!me
i'm somewhat baffled that you think i ought to be townreading you but also can't really point to anything that i ought to be townreading you for ...

also this might be a weird thing to say but i think this is a weaker/hollower pushback than i would sort of expect from town-you tbh

Infinity is in my town bin. Leaning skitter town too. I don't see a contradiction there

i think if skitt is scum she's probably genuinely exasperated rather than something like this

eh ok, i guess that could make some amount of sense and is semi-plausible. and that's what you were thinking the first time you read the messages?
I was surprised they were actual people rather than mod-controlled anonymous messages. I just sort of read them and didnt think that much of them except that it was interesting that one was named Locke when we have Rousseau in the game. I thought the font thing tweetie did to show the static was cool, and after I saw the pronouns listed I scrolled back up to try to commit the pronouns to the avatars/usernames.

That's all I can remember thinking when reading it the first time
ok
so upon learning that there were scum in the messages you went back to see if you can identify one, is that right?
what was your thoguht process the second tiem around, if you don't mind?

Idk if skitter would be the same way but I had a string of like 4 scumgames recently where there was like a weird dark energy that gave me
more
WIM in my scum games the more I rolled scum
I know it sounds stupid as fuck but dark energy is honestly the best to put it because it seriously defies logic how I managed to GAIN WIM in my scum games by rolling scum more

i get this actually

i've rolled scum i think more than is physically possible for a person this year but i think it also depends on the person? for me i got into the midnset of "fuck it someone has to like playing scum"

it's really just something i think is specific to skitter who's Over It... i don't think she cycles into the evil side like we did :3

ah fair enough. to me i think it shows a solving mindset though to immediately use the new setup info to try to go back and sort.

as far as the read on me goes, we can start with: why do you think i'm picking a fight with you right off the bat?

i don't think you should be townreading me necessarily, but i did say i thought it was likely you'd be townreading me as town here. i don't really think specific towny things i did are necessary for that because the things others townread me for are usually not the things i think are towny anyway.

@ydrasse sorry i missed that, i don't really agree but fair.

Wth is that unfakeable??
I'm half joking. I do think that post is town-indicative for ydrasse because I think she'd be really happy to roll town and I don't think her first thought after she rolls scum is to think "I need to fake being happy I rolled town"

PEdit: I lightly townread gamma because scum!him has been very scummy even early on in the past. Although, I think he can be a decent scum player so that's why it's a weak read. I'm relatively confident I can read him correctly as the game goes on
confusion

infinity do you think my happiness for being town isn't similar to skitter's exasperation?

they feel parallel

like you're making the same argument that i made for skitter in essence but you don't agree with one of them :>

no, the read on you is pretty you-specific (and it being the first post is important)

honestly i didn't even see where skitt looked exasperated but i don't necessarily see why she'd try to hide it as scum anyway

okay so you town read me

and i am saying that the read on skitter is skitter-specific but it still doesn't hold weight? :<

my intial thought was partners with ssbm and that you were like casually defending her and didn't expect this to spiral into as much of a Thing as it did
i've been kinda mulling it over and i'm not sure that i still like that theory tho
your defense feels kinda weird but i actually feel like it's in more of a white-knight kinda way? idk something about it doesn't feel really sincere to me
i'm still kinda thinking this through rn tho

i mostly think if you're scum you weren't expecting this to become a big fight tho

maybe i do townread you in a vaccuum but this whole thing is somewhat getting in the way and now my read is sort of colored by this 'weird defense of ssbm' thing so i don't really townread you rn

also if it's about skitt being happy she rolled town then she did the exact same thing really early on in perpetual melo and she had had some pretty bad scumgames before that (at least divide and conquer, i think there was another)

pedit: i just don't get why the same logic would apply to skitt.

and fair enough skitt

i feel like town her would be a bit more... willing to think about it or humor it instead of going "no, no, i disagree"?

i don't know if she'd feel obligated to keep on going because she doesn't wanna look flaky
