I'm getting a strong urge to put flea in the townbin then walk away slowly and carefully without making too much eye contact. Mostly because it's hard to look at them while they're on my back.

shifting read on Isis due to pressure - feels like not a real read
i kinda disagree on this read; i think he's pretty townie imo

Posting with flawed logic is like the scariest thing ever as scum because the flaw might be some little scum claim thing.
Also generally scum like being right so the scum version of drafting this post would be something more like, "in spite of the post restriction I know this still applies".
i'm not sure i agree with the thought process behind, like, any of this

i don't really enjoy/vibe super well with all the cutesy memey stuff that's been posted, and it makes it hard for me to interact with the game, esp. when there's like 20 pages of it
when there's more content and stuff that i wanna interact with i'll do more

My town atm is (Isis/Pooky/Ydrasse/Infinity) with a maybe on MT. Everyone else I need more on than I've got.
Why? What was weird about them? There are a lot of things that are very similar here to that game but not everything. I was totally lost in that game (in the beginning anyway) and being V/LA for almost a week didn’t help matters.

I'm not going to put any stock in associative pre flip 2 days into a game, but their pushes on neither of their pushes on each other screamed town.
Skitter/Dunnstral is always a possibly too.
Why would getting “slight townpings” concern you ever?
That is what it reminds me of When you list a bunch of town which are generally consensus reads, say you should be townreading someone but don't act on that, two people's interactions are weird etc.
Also that game
was
silent star
I townread all of those slots except Ydrasse (who 3 of my TRs and several other people TR so is town) very early in. Do you have any specific problems with my progression or the reads on them, because I was one of the first to state most of those reads. Shading me for having common townreads when it's more of a townblock is really odd.
I'm acting on it by saying it and paying attention to responses. I don't understand what you mean by 'not acting on it'. You can fish for responses without a vote, sometimes it works even better.
Plus I'm voting someone I have bad pings on for other reasons? I don't like how you're trying to shade me not voting Skitter30/Gloria?
I know that game was silent star. It was in the title. I never said anything that remotely implied I didn't know this?
In post 509, Hopkirk wrote:The Skitter30/Gloria interactions tasted a bit weird.
Can you explain this for me though. Are you suspecting Skitter too?
Gloria obvtowned in 20 posts last time we played and hasn't in 90 this game to me. That's a cause for concern.
Skitter30 I haven't played with, but she feels like she's occupying the light-town zone that scum crawl into. I want a lot more from her.
Also as I've said, my style is gather a solid set of townreads then do POE.
Awaiting responses. Feel free to throw in as much toxicity as you want because it'll make me cry and then Isis will be happy.
I haven't read enough to know you were the first to form these reads, if so then I guess I'm wrong on what I was saying.
You have a good point against Gloria
Your read on Skitter doesn't make sense - you are suspicious because she's light town?
You are voting by yourself right now so it doesn't seem as productive, but everyone has scattered votes/aren't voting right now for reasons I guess.
In post 520, Hopkirk wrote:Skitter30/Dunnstral is partially serious based on me thinking 'I wonder if Skitter30 knew about the Taylor ban so quickly because partners',
Doesn't really make sense, the mod wouldn't announce a replacement in a scum pt instead of the game thread
He does? What “good point”?

Skitter, thoughts on dunn/hopkirk? I’m getting a “not sure whether the superficially scummy thing is scum, or the person pointing it out is scum, or neither” since hopkirk has a bunch of consensus-y reads. Initial thoughts are T/T but I’m not sure.

i'm not sure what the right words are, but the whole interaction felt kinda fake? like i don't understand hopkirk's reads but dunn doesn't go into that part and instead in that convo there's more 'meat' to the part where they're discussing hectic's modding history, if that makes sense
so like on both ends it felt weird

To me, dunn feels like a player who’s more comfortable with mechanics/fact-based things than describing reads, so I don’t think that’s
super
out of character? Tbf I can’t particularly read dunn, but the push felt like it was motivated by moving the game forward, and I got townvibes from hopkirk’s defense.

i suggest launching taylor and flea today
YEET ME
So I can join the stars in the sky and shine my brilliance upon the world for all to see until my blood boils in the vacuum of space and allows me to become another object in the chaos that is Kessler Syndrome <3
@Flea, why do you want to be yeeted?
Because then I can be a problem on a global scale :3 Kesslar Syndrome is scary af.
Gloria's a meanie. Asking anyone to review that game even in ISOs should be considered a punishment. [As awesome as it was just ye gods the shitposting was real.]
I don't get why this is scummy for Gloria just seems like a lighthearted way to let Flea talk about the game
I’m glad at least someone is correctly reading me, Pooky requires more effort. I’ll need to metadive him to find out his musical tastes I guess, since he won’t tell me.
Uhm... I think you misunderstood the post? Either that or I did.

Ok I'm chaotic af but I love the "It's NAI but actually townie!" this is a level I need to attain.

Why though? Like imo it's the opposite, if scum did pregame choices, it's more likely that jessie is scum
Why? I’m currently nullreading them. I feel the most confident on MT, Isis and Ydrasee and probably Skitter.
Gloria why have you gone from absolute meanie to chaos fiend?
(why does this feel like a whisper? o.o also haiiiiiii)

OOKAAAAAYYYYYY UNVOTE: hoppy[/vote] because that was RVS and we are WAAAAAAAAYYYYY outta that stage. I think I'm caught up.
Anyone who decides to ask me for reads can go and get in the bin because I get asked this EVERY DAMNED GAME because people apparently can't work out what I'm thinking, and maybe that's the point. I have reads, I also have chaotic spicy bean juice brain. Brain go zoomy zoomy body go nyoomy nyoomy.
Spoiler: The floof is a trap!
What do you mean by “chaos fiend”? Well, you already know I felt bad about that, so I want to do better this time. However, if you keep posting like this, you can maybe provide the Noraa fun this time round. And there can never be enough fun in mafia. Besides if I’m a “meanie” Hectic might use Noraa’s dayvig on me.

In Hideyoshi, Pooky’s play was very logical where as Bulge’s made absolutely no sense. He was scumreading me for being the only one trying to stop the wagon on town!Brooks eventhough he knew there was absolutely no way we could have been aligned but Pooky cleverly spun that as Bulge kind of playing like some kind of idiot savant who was clueless about the gamestate.
