I don't understand these posts. Like I don't particularly scumread them I just don't really comprehend what you are trying to say.

But lovers aren't allowed in normals

(Apart from Dats and Ari, they can be an exception)

[humaneatingmonkey]

oh hey there fellow towner how goes your thread

[Aristeia]

Ausuka is an angel, I am not sure VPB is worthy tbh

[Ydrasse]

townily

[Ausuka]

*towns about in thread*

I will townread you but only if you townread me. I believe in prid pro quo

[Ausuka]

I think I spelt that correct

[Ydrasse]

*towns about in thread*

i already was

[Ausuka]

ok good

[fireisredsir]

Question for you Ausuka - should I scumread fireisredsir for starting the game with this post

im actually really sad i didn't roll scum here, it would've been so much fun

and then having the time of his life for the next however-many-pages-he-was-around? Or should I continue to townread him for the joyous vibe and for having 2-3 towny posts?

ari what do you think of datisi so far?

[fireisredsir]

that quote was supposed to go in this post, which was saying that i probably wouldn't have made that first post as scum and then proceeded to project a very different vibe, bc it will only draw attention to the difference and nobody is gonna townread me for it anyway

[VP Baltar]

Lol ok. So how is it 'made up' exactly

Spoiler: guiltylion posts

what's up gamers!

VOTE: marcistar

why aren't you voting?

VOTE: scamper

oh this is spicy, i'd like to hear more

also i'm not getting great vibes from nero still

Why is it spicy?

Do you think scamper's ISO is especially townie or something?

his first few posts are fluff, I don't like the phrasing of 108 it doesn't actually give me any idea why scamper thinks HEM is scum while being an easy thing to say to justify your vote, 110 is offensively non-offensive. 114 also gave me a feel of trying to stir shit around Nero without actually directly getting involved.

@Ydrasse

what do you see as town here?

addendum I forgot to add,

specifically I really dislike the trailing "..." on 114, that's what gives me the shit stirring vibe. like if you think Nero being wrong in 113 means something, say that, if you don't, what's the point of the post

the questions about why dont feel like theyre aimed at actually sorting

what makes you say they're not aimed at sorting?

103 directly lead to 105 which feels like useful content from fire

Why do you think she should be?

cause that's what gets the game out of a no-information state, voting

also

you should know by now Gamma that I constantly hound people to vote their scumreads?

we just went over this in Eurybia's curse, being in a state of Not Voting is literally the least useful thing you can do

in the game.

I've decided Datisi is scum but we should let him live because he's cool

Datisi I'm putting you in the penalty box

, you're gonna need to start wowing me with some better reads to get out

Bolded are places where I was surprised at GuiltyLion feeling a little firey, a little overly negative, something off about the vibe.
I dunno maybe I'm inserting a tone that isn't there but I just got negative vibes from a lot of these posts? Like a puppy trying to assert dominance. Whereas I feel like from InnocentLion I'm used to something a bit more like an older dog slowly and professor-ishly catching scum.

No offense @GL I'm just using the best silly metaphor I can think of

I actually liked GL so far? Why can't they be serious? Seemed like trying to work an angle and see where it goes, even if it's early.

[humaneatingmonkey]

i really like irrelephant he's showing originality

[VP Baltar]

Lol worlds fastest fingers over here. Can you tell I haven't played mafia on my phone in a min?

[Gamma Emerald]

people care about how well they are liked on this site?

I mean, I like being friends with people here!

this
Basically the main reason I play is that it’s social stimulus and I don’t have much alternatives atm when it comes to that

[humaneatingmonkey]

like i'm not out here saying GL is being overly negative, i don't think so, but i understand the pov that can think so and call it out post-by-post

[VP Baltar]

"It means it seems like you made it up and now you are covering poo with ~vibes~" is how you're planning to catch scum!Ausuka?

Like 399 is a good reason for pushing Ausuka's Nero read but also not sure it matches with you just kinda shading Ausuka for having a viberead. You can be a townlean for 396 though, so maybe I'll just drop this

I had like 9 pages to catch up on. Don't expect war and peace just yet

oh good shit guiltylion is town, i can stop completely shitposting now

VOTE: datisi

Why do you always roll scum wtf

don't you wanna let me bus first? :3

but if I expect you to bus you'll eliminate town. and if I expect you to do that you'll bus. better to just slay the dragon imo

*nods in understanding*

I always like having you around GE

[VP Baltar]

This feels like a wildly out-of-nowhere take?? Like even if you think Ausuka's wrong I'm not sure why it's so unbelievable that her wrong read would be based on vibes

Mostly because Nero hadn't done anything out of normal range there, fmpov, so I wanted to press a little bit and see if she had any deeper reasoning for making a town read there. She did not.

I think pushing on flimsy reads early on in a game can be a fruitful way to catch scum before they find their footing.

And you think town don't have these 'flimsy' reads in the early game or

Like if that's the logic we're going on you are looking very very bad right now

Sure, town can be flimsy.

But they probably have a complete thought process at least. I still don't understand your Nero town ping.
