I didn't say anyone was scummy for voting me.
I said that voting me during RVS isn't reason to read someone as town. I was questioning your thought process, not the person who voted me. Why would voting me be towny? It still doesn't make sense to me.
I actually facepalmed at this
Please soshin lol
Why did you say this when from what I can see you never stopped having a scumread on him
This post and the series leading up to it from unwnd are strong posts. Scum would want to be giving Shoshin a free pass here because the wagon is fast, regardless of Shoshin's alignment.
Unwnd keeps pushing and pointing out the waffling from Shoshin. I like it

I understand the value of questions like that. I use that strategy myself.
However, the problem here is there was really almost no content in the game when you started doing this. You can't catch scum in the RVS stage like that because there aren't any interactions to check the results against, nor does it move the game forward. That's why it comes across as fake to me.
You are using a disagreement on mafia theory to imply Shoshin is being inauthentic
Bzzt, wrong.
I'm saying Shoshin is trying to convince me asking fluffy questions early is actually her setting up a scum trap....and that's just false. It's not theoretical, it's about what she actually did this game.
The question is whether she is just not great at scumhunting early in the game as town or whether she is scum trying to coast.

It's ridiculously transparent. Caught scum doesn't understand why she's caught. We eject her and bask in the towncred tomorrow. First round of drinks on me, everyone!
Why wouldn't scum kill you?
Why did you ask this question?

Interesting. What are you town reading Shoshin on?

"My way of playing" = meta.
And if not, please explain the difference to me

Lol you just said one post before you weren't making a meta defense.

It's weird, but is it scummy. The fact other people are like "this is not how iv plays" gives me pause.
Posting restrictions aren't a thing in normals are they?

I could be open to running iv up and seeing the response. I've certainly gotten nothing out of him that is particularly interesting or good so far.
I'd like to wait to see where we are with the Shoshin wagon though. The speed means scum have had to take positions on this.
Shoshin hasn't comported herself well under pressure, though tbf, I could see town flailing as well if they are weak about responding to pressure

I don't even disagree with these reads, but for some reason I HATE this post.
It feels reachy and overeager.

you bringing up iv has made me go recheck some meta, and honestly i do think this is very much scum!indicative behaviour for him.
i'd like to sit by and wait and see where the shoshin wagon goes, but the issue is that i feel like iv flipping scum implies shoshin being town... but i also don't want albert to yell at me. what to do, what to do...

You're going to facepalm when you reread & realize you're mistaking me for Nora. Again, I didn't scumread anyone for voting me. I scumread Gamma for supporting an RVS vote on me, but I dropped that when his explanation re: gumption made sense.
?????????????????????????????????????????

I said I found his vote on Nora scummy, and he never answered my inquiry on that topic. I didn't say I scumread ABR as a whole -- I'm still working on this read. That said, even if I scumread him, I'm going to constantly consider whether I'm wrong. This is how you get better reads -- being willing to reevaluate and admit you were wrong before.
He pretty clearly said his *first* serious vote was on u. That means the one on me was a RVS vote, no?

don't you SR ABR, actually? Why are you letting him lead you?
pushing on LHF is not a good look tho I will admit cake's been a scum bucket. Either way, all is fine. I have a huge scum tell on you that I will drop the moment you slip up if ur scum.

interesting take. I think most scums win because town thinks they wouldn't do blahblahblah tho ya'know?

Yeah I don't think he's in a comfortable position right now so it will give a lot of info as we get the claim and everyone decides what they want to do with Shoshin and we will work back from there.
