I can understand you calling it "trash", then, but do you consider it scummy? That is, do you think that just because it offers wriggle room to a potential scum Hebichan, that it's more likely to come from a scum Hebichan? The way I've phrased it I feel like the instinctual answer is "of course", but it seems to me that just because there may potentially be scum utility in a certain method of posting, that doesn't necessarily imply that it from scum. Town is just as capable of phrasing things, explaining things or just making posts in general in such a method that would offer a lot of room as scum.

I'm going to talk a little bit about why I consider this a scumpost.

-I mean no offense by this statement, but I think these sorts of "surface level" reasons to townread others come a lot more from scum than from town. Town, uninformed of anyone else's alignment, are naturally distrustful; doubtful. Taking such reasons as "lots of asking questions" and "trying hard to figure out this game" as reasons to townread others is more likely to come from scum, who both:
1) Know everyone's alignment and thus do not require strong reasons to townread people
2) Need to pretend to be sorting people to keep up appearances.

Nancy mentioning Mastina and the IC claim along with the rest of her townreads goes entirely along with my second point there; it's simply mentioning something for the sake of mentioning something and appearing to be solving the game.

From a quick scan of the posts following this it seems others agree with me here, so I think I can leave it at this. I urge others to join me here.

It seems we're in agreement for the most part. I'm not as confident as you seem to be on Wisdom, but I could definitely see where you're coming from.

What are your thoughts on MuffinMan, Katsuki, Purrcocet and Brian Skies? I ask about these people specifically because having looked through your ISO I don't recall seeing a read on them, and I'm a little bit lost myself on how to read them at the moment.

i think theyre probably town

I'm interested to hear your thoughts on why.

It's possible I'm simply misinterpreting what I see as poor play to be scum play. I don't think so, but it's a thought that occurred to me while typing things out. From a comment that someone else made about obvious towning, I expect to be proven wrong if Nancy truly is town.

what? no i think muffinman and those other dudes are town, not nancy

Ah. Of course.

you said you were having trouble with that. i just made it easy for you

im being helpful again and helpful people are town

Good ol' muffinman, how i missed you.

@hydra partner

when one more person votes nancy, you should put our (your) vote on nancy

being third on a wagon is a town tell iirc

Okay.

Although I generally ignore that tell.

i just realised, things are going to get quite awkward when we try to discuss how to use our role(s) tonight

didn't think that one through

Easy! just neighborize each other!

Ask Fakegod to keep your hydra QT open obv.

this is getting boring, it needs more excitement
VOTE: Nancy

he said hes not going to

i guess he doesnt like hydras or something

kaede did something change your mind about hebi?

VOTE: nancy

gang

pedit: dont interrupt me

reminder that we should be waiting approximately 2.5 RL days before lynching anyone (probably a good idea regardless of whether you think kokichi is town or scum, b t w)

i get the sentiment but the Nancy Drew 39 votes are kind of ew

Well I didnt expect to see this much quicksand

In post 343, Wisdom wrote:kaede did something change your mind about hebi?

Not exactly, but I kinda felt bad for her. I remember something about she being more useful in later days, i think someone mentioned it in here or something too. And I started questioning myself whether im right or wrong, so I decided to give her at least another day.

You’d be wrong about the vote not about the read being surface level. My d1 reads are almost always surface level - especially scumreads until I eventually get into the game.

I haven’t voted yet because I don’t yet have a strong read. I mention Mastina because I think it’s a mistake to vote for someone on the base of a claim. unless you have solid reasons for disputing it. I think you’re likely town here who is clearly unfamiliar with my meta.

I jumped on what turned out to be a bad wagon in my last game on here and want to avoid making the same mistake. There has been a lot of suspicion on both Kade and Wisdom but think both of them have a high probability of being mislynchbait. Just like in my last game on here, most likely there’s at least one wolf on my wagon d1, probably not you or Brian.

I am perplexed but not that upset about the votes on me because, assuming town is smart enough to not mislynch me, my VCA for d1 is almost guaranteed to help me make correct reads d2 and I most certainly will. I’m the most curious to see if Necromancer peops jump on this because it will definitely be illuminating.
