I wonder if I've just found their playstyle appealing and feel a bit blinded there.

I've townread them for awhile because I could not attach a scum agenda and they've been generally a pleasant slot this game, plus some mindmelding at certain points that aren't at the top of my head.

I think their stances so far have not been very unique so it is not a strong read either way.

What do you think?
I don't know

I'm pretty easily blindsided by the more oldschool players and STD seems like one of them

it's just kinda yikes since that pairing is the most likely third pairing I think I can be confident in reading TvT but I'm really not confident I can read STD well enough to do that
They're definitely a pair that I'd like to see go to Second Dance. I feel entertaining reasons to suspect
Dragons
is largely buying into paranoia when there's little reason to suggest otherwise.

Datisi did you ever respond to my GL thoughts? If so, I missed it.
Didn’t love this post.

I also wasn’t thrilled that she had us as her most confident T - T pair but didn’t want us to endgame. How does that make sense to anyone?

Norwe
was like in your PT,
Marci
. How big was it? What did y'all talk about?
its still on page 2 so not that big, but to me it seemed reasonable considering we have like an 8 or 9 hr difference i forgot which lol

Spoiler:
we talked abt how useless/useful looking into malakittens would be,
paranoia about andante & her meta (took awhile)
i asked if he thought andante / firebringer could both be scum
he told me his read on firebringer
talked more about andante
he asked my take on somethingsmart / galron
i explained what i thought, i asked if his read on harley quinn was an actual thing
he said his read on harley quinn is real
<<the datisi losing activity thing i talked abt earlier today is here>>
he mentioned his read on me based off of the wagons on us
he told me he didnt think we would live long
he said he thought catboi was townie
(at this point he wasnt responding anymore) i talked about what i thought about datisi earlier today

In post 3982, GuiltyLion wrote:@marci, at what point did you start thinking Prism/Norwee slot was town?

also, who would you say is picking people off of playstyle things? I don't like the last bit of the post without you offering any specific names and players you are thinking are more suspicious than Norway
1. i dont know exactly when, but it was around the time i started mentioning how decent he is here
2. literally anyone attacking norwee for how hes been acting is picking him off based off of playstyle :/ :yawn: :yawn: :yawn: :yawn: :yawn:
In post 3984, Alyssa The Lamb wrote:my issue with it is I can't really decipher whether it's more likely that it's a town mindset or scum mindset that creates that post considering my issues with it
whats ur issues with it?
In post 3985, GuiltyLion wrote:also, who was "drowning the chat"? This feels like a weird characterization around the narrative around Cabd - like yeah, it came up a bunch of times and a lot of people wanted Smart limmed as soon as he replaced in, but there was still a lot of other discussion going on around the time too
maybe it was weird wording, but the same point over and over is drowning it into the chat imo
In post 3990, Harley Quinn wrote:Oh really? I viewed it as Marci tr Norwee because her post sounded like she had conviction in that read. I do wonder why she didn’t pair with Angie however because I think that’s probably one if not the main reasons she likey signed up for this, based off how badly she wanted to play with Marci.

@Marci did you sr Angie? Is that why you didn’t pair with her?
didnt really have a read on her,
i wanted her to get a bit more active in chat and get a diff pair if she could, the people who know me and lily well know how hard we buddy so i sorta wanted to push her out of the comfort zone if i could.

Remember not to tell Pooky that postgame. He joined in 2003 which is a year before STD. Imagine calling the mod oldschool.

That's sweet. I actually never thought of STD as oldschool. (Must be those memes and how he doesn't use the l-word.)

it looks like you ISOed them and just picked out things to call them town with, and the part about scumreading him for playstyle/that he hadn't been suspicious rubbed me the wrong way

like the way you're interacting in the thread doesn't match up with this... odd deflecty way of defending your partner.

Leaving everything aside, just the drama around us before makes us easy to miseliminate, making it weird coming from Titus.

I have the weird feeling Marci is scum that hoped norwee will keep the pair for dying but now that he replaced out is upping the ante to not get eliminated.
