Agree but I think thier content has been /towny/ enough.

My reads are pretty similar to except maybe havign strange as a tl, and margot to null

What are you seeing about Strange that is Townie? Hard for me to get a read there. Why did Margot move to Null?

If I have your reasoning right for why I am Scum it is because my defensiveness changed after you said I was being defensive? And that just because the wagon developed doesn't mean I am Town? I can still be reasonable sometimes just like I can be defensive sometimes. When I explained to alstro that defensiveness isn't a Scum tell for me, the reached the conclusion that it is person dependent whereas you still think me being defensive is a Scum tell. I'm just trying to tell you here that being defensive isn't AI for me. Make of that what you will but it's true.
My point was more that this was the reason I saw that people backed down from SRing you. My reasoning has been detailed elsewhere, and my point was that you haven't done much to assuage those suspicions. You are far from LS for me, but definitely on my radar.

Not sure lol. I really need to think through it all. GTMH, it's Alstro, but I honestly don't know, because they've been acting pretty Townie recently

Why do you think they would play it the exact same way again?
Just because you lose as scum doesn’t mean you can’t do that kind of stuff again at all, and thinking like that could end up with scum completely getting away with doing said risky play because it IS the play Town wouldn’t expect.
I just think that adds a lot of unnecessary WIFOM into the game. No reason to think the team is exactly T3 and Roden yet.

I won't be able to sit down and form a comprehensive, updated read until I am back from visiting my grandparents today, but for the time being I will say that I don't think it's a good idea to yeet the top poster on D1 unless there is a very compelling case for them being scum, because if they flip town it's a huge blow.

Is anyone able to explain why they Tr Austro (blame phone) in less vague terms than this? As of yet I am unconvinced.

@Margot wrt your #305, I want to ask you where Egix and T3 place on your reads list update since you forgot to mention them?

Also wanna ask SM who their two strongest elimination candidates are rn for D1, and why?
I say two, because one is most likely me which you've hinted the potential reasons for in #279 and iterating that doesn't say much.

... Nothing outside of gut, but I like them trying to get more information out of me by actually engaging, like, they aren't just making conclusions without follow-up, but I want to see more from them.

Smh, looks worse now that I've reviewed LQ's posts and seen that he actually had a town lean on Clasko in .

On the other hand, I do get mild town feels from /, and as I mentioned earlier, I wouldn't want to jump to conclusions here if it just ends up all being for nothing.

I say Roden or you right now is my top two candidates for scum has to be you and the former is honestly better to flip than your slot. Roden elim. To me, getting some information involving the meta (of T3 and Roden) is probably more useful than eliminating you because of what some people here consider a slip.

Even if this flips green it means we still have some sort of information, so either way I think this vote is fine.

Its mainly a meta read: . As for Margot Null, im not seeing enough content from them atm, sure their content at the very beginning was townish

I already did think over this, and I believe that this is just a better person to eliminate just from how they have been doing as having scum-like intent to me.

How much of your read on Roden is based on the Scum team being exactly T3/Roden? I mean. I could consider that if Roden/T3 flip Scum, but doing pre-flip is generally a bad idea.
