not necessarily, so much as the thought did cross my mind while i read the following post that if she's scum she's unhappy that there's so many people being townread for being lighthearted, as she puts it
In post 360, Ydrasse wrote:i don't see it as saying much this early on though? in general i think that a lot of people here are probably capable of that + that sort of lightheartedness isn't going to do more than maybe give us like, the tiniest of townreads on a person for being a bit more carefree

as i continued to speak with her, i realized that what i took initially to be a deliberate attempt to misunderstand flea was more a function of how she processes things that are written in a forum (as she misunderstood the connotation of something that i wrote a few posts down too)
and that i was told by multiple people that being defensive wasn't ai for her
and the way she insisted i read her in death curse
+ this afternoon i realized i probably know who she is and none of that is ai for her if i'm right

to clarify this particular bit was about your me/dunn speculation, not about me/gloria. idk what this post means in that context

i'm gonna be honest when i woke up this morning there were like 8 pages of meming and i skimmed a lot of it so i don't even remember that happening, or most of what she wrote

I guess I feel her worry about me being red is real,
I'm not as 100% as I am that it's real like Gloria but in my experience I haven't seen Ydra-Scum fake concern like that before.
And I don't see the point of her asking me to promise to be town here is. When she says:
"pooky. pooky promise me that you're town this game. i need you to be town"
and
"pooky i don't know who you are as town only as scum ..................... im scared"
I take her at her word that these are real feelings she has.

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.
Your early stuff was a lot more focused. Here your style is a lot more jokey/floppy rather than laser foucsed on content.
In post 518, Hopkirk wrote:Skitter/Gloria both read aren't jumping out as obvtown but are giving slight townpings which concerns me. I'd like to sort both through the art of talking and/or sheeping
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?
Because in most games I've played recently scum are the people who light townping early on, not the people you hard scumread. The null-town-i-guess zone doesn't get voted out day 1.
By “early stuff”, you’re specifically referring to after my having been V/LA for a week and I think I forget now - where LLD was deciding on third scroll? That was extremely serious, I’m obviously not going to be making “jokey/floppy” posts while that was going on. I probably still haven’t read massive chunks of that game.

You said I was ‘pushing’ it and made a lot of posts about it. I said I got very light pings. It sounded a lot like you were trying to make it look like I had a much stronger read than the ‘essentially null’ that I had.
Oh, nevermind the above post.
Was me redacting that comment because you then said you thought I was being jokey there which is the opposite of the narrative I was considering a scum-Skitter30 attempting to create.
how are you reading me and gloria rn ?

Gloria – Lower half. I'm going to need some good old Pooky thoughts on this one

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.
@Dunn- hm, how did you have more of an issue with my reads being 'consensusy' but not Gloria's?
@Gloria - got any hot take reads? Your read change was basically a swap from Infinity (who some people including Pooky had moved to scum on) over to Ydrasse- and all of these reads are pretty uncontroversial TRs over the game.
I was questioning my Infinity read but I’m not particularly worried about him rn, so I don’t understand what your point is? My tr on Ydrasse is a lot stronger. So, it’s bad to mindmeld with my townreads?

Having a townblock is fine. I agreed with your stance here when I responded to Dunn that mine was fine.
My implied question to you is what you think of Dunn taking that stance on me (but not on you) and you not commenting on him not liking my stance when you and I share a stance.
