Like i'm kinda missing the connection between 'town-driven cw' and 'town indicative for jv'
Yeah that's all confusing me as well

a new wagon started by town that scum!hoopla jumped on
So you're reading me as town because you read hoopla as scum? Isn't that generally a bad way to read people?
i gave jv townpoints for the wagon bc i don't see scum!hoopla bussing their partner in that way
This might be a silly question, but if you're so convinced hoopla is scum that you're townreading jv off of apparently anti-partner-y associatives ... why are voting penguin again?
Also i think you're townreads of lilith and peta are unfounded
Yeah I like skitter even more and I'm slowly moving to scum!golden

Actually I take that back, I'll drown myself in everything before making a stance.

there's nothing wrong with that.
Uhhh, what even is this?
There were people saying that the lilith wagon had formed because she had first pick in the draft.
I explained my vote relative to that assumption.
Not sure whether PP was saying there's nothing wrong with voting people for pagetopping, or if there's nothing wrong with pagetopping.
Enigmatic, but I give a small number of weak town points for it. More specifically for not saying my post is scummy since I lobbed it out there as a tool to gather exactly that kind of response.

What's concerning about it?
Have you developed any outside of saying PP felt towny a while ago?
I... don't know. I want to believe that lilith wouldn't approach me this way as scum, but she's literally played me by doing this exact thing before.
I think TGP is > rand town, because his argument is weird but it seems pretty plausible that he would believe it.

It's concerning because while you're posting well, I feel like that's something good scum players are more capable of doing than developing natural reads.
While it fits your playstyle, it still leaves me paranoid is all.
As for Lilith, how do you think she'd approach this situation if she were scum?

I mean, it's not exactly hard to generate reads as scum. Natural reads, maybe, but like it's also hard to generate natural reads as town.

Could you elaborate on how it's hard to generate natural reads as town? I don't understand that at all

That was just a convoluted way of saying that forming good reads is hard.

Uh, what? Natural is not a convoluted way of saying good.

Jackson why are you focusing on NAI stuff so much, this is literally just about theory.
In post 490, lilith2013 wrote:@SS if you're town, I'm happy to be proven wrong, but like, you calling out skitter on her response to JV's townread on her felt over the top
Hmm? His response to that was along the lines of "This is interesting, I wonder what to think. Slightly scummy."
The fact that he called it out at all feels like not-SS to me. It also reminded me of this post:
Honestly, I think the number of people who immediately popped in to express their dislike for the wagon is much more notable.
in which he avoids interacting with the wagon, similarly to how he avoided commenting on the JV wagon here.
S_S said this is a general feature of his playstyle though (in regards to being hesitant with votes), has he done this as town as well?
In a vacuum I would say an unwillingness to get involved in wagons/voting is scummy but if it's a consistency across his play than I don't know how much I can take from it.

is it too early for me to start scolding the chatterboxes? do i need to prepare my "balance of voices" speech?

I'm beginning to think that one of JV/Hoopla is scum.

I don't see it as nai but if you want to explain why that'd be neat
