No but seriously, if you're town I don't see a good reason to tank myself onto you when I'm much more convinced of Toog beign scum.
And if you're scum, I don't see a reason to try and kill you, lose my momentum and have people like Cabd decide that you're not dying today.
I'm uninterested in either outcome, since they're both bad for me, and thus, the town.
So I'm denying the gambit. I'm happy to piledrive Toog into the ground and dust him before moving on.

I mean, there is a chance you're scum... which would preclude you from being killed at night.
I'm sorry, I'm not sure I get what this is. Are you trying to be rude or insult me? It's not really working. Here, maybe call me a bitch? Oh, or you could try telling me I lack the brain cells or something.

I mean come on! You've got a thousand nasty things you could say and you're choosing to go "I just think it's funny that you're too stupid to understand we're obviously dying at night this game, god."
Weaksauce.
Put some OOMPH behind that condescension. Really eviscerate me for daring to scum read you.

Some of us don’t get their kicks off being nasty. Clearly not a universal belief.

Or, wait, am I ruining this for you? Am I meant to not like it? Should I pretend? I'll pretend.
Oh no! I'm really upset and hurt that you think I'm too dumb to understand this! I'm going to be upset and cry and then I won't ever ever suspect you again.
Did I do it right? Sorry, I'm kind of a bad actor.

A novel concept, why didn't I think of this before? In so far as I never insulted you, kept to your play and for the mere crime of thinking you're scum, by golly I've done it again.
I've just been so awful. Won't you forgive me?

Cutting the bullshit, I'm pretty tired of being told that somehow I'm doing something wrong for suspecting you.
Or that I'm some kind of laughable idiot for thinking differently than you, or what you think is obvious.
Or that it's okay to speak to me in that way just because I scum read you and chose not to vote you.
I entered this with good faith and an attempt to play the game. You've made playing the game harder. I'd like it if you would stop.

Oh, and also, if it wasn't understood that I'm not Niamh or Rhea, try imagining them reacting like that to this kind of thing.
I'm trying myself, and it's kind of making me crack up. I don't think they could do it without getting angry, tbh.

Mooooooving forward (hah, cow joke. Get it? Because I like/identify with cows? No? Boo.)
I think DGB's vote is bad because DGB is a player whom I think knows way better than to vote Manatee for doing that kind of schtick, and would have jumped all over Toog for his claim. I just think DGB is super out of character here and in ways that support a possible scummy agenda.
I think Kate Bishop is scummy because their reads list makes no sense and reads more like something fabricated to achieve a goal (the goal of looking like a real reads list, being town read and finding a townie to kill) over something genuinely formed. I really take the most issue with the Unwnd true neutral read because I can't imagine seeing Unwnd who is really polarizing this game as true neutral.
Also having Toog that low but wanting to vote SSBM. That's another bad mark in my book.
Mmhmm. Okay, we're going to be serious for a moment here. I don't know if you're trying to make me feel guilty purposefully or if it's just a passive effect of how you're feeling, but unlike the rest of my sisters I don't have issues identifying when I've done right and when I've done wrong.
A statement like this would have someone like Niamh feeling really bad for about a week straight thinking she had done something wrong to deserve this kind of guilt trip.
I, on the other hand, just went back and reviewed every post in our interaction, and have determined that at the beginning of it, I was speaking about your posts in a analytical manner and trying to interact with you in terms of the game and why I felt the way I did.
To which you replied with "lmao" to someone voting you. "Vote me then" to someone scum reading you. Mockery to my real concern (and compliment) that you will be harder to kill than Toog.
And then insulted my intelligence by insinuating that I was too stupid to understand that you were town and obviously being night killed this game, and that it was indeed funny how stupid I was.
To which I responded sarcastically to point out you were being unfair and unkind, and also to make you feel uncomfortable with having done it. I don't regret that.
And then finally addressed your insult directly and asked you to cease doing it in the future.
From my examination of these events, I feel I have nothing to feel guilty over, but perhaps I do feel bad for considering that you might do this intentionally. We're meant to be friends, so maybe I'm not supposed to do that?
But frankly, after you insulted me, it's a little hard to maintain my good faith that you aren't also guilt tripping me. So I'd like to ask you to stop doing that if you're doing it intentionally, or if not, then I apologize for assuming/insinuating you were, and I'd like to ask you to be more considerate with how you word things.
Oh, and one final thought before I move back into making game posts, I swear this is the last one.
But if someone suspecting you as scum makes the game unfun for you, I'm uncertain what to tell you. On a personal note, I don't know you more than by reputation, which is a fairly positive one, hence my desire not to try and kill you before Toog.
On a less personal note, if I'm wrong you have 11 other people... er, guess more like 8-9? depending on if you think I'm scum? People to convince of your innocence. And also possibly me. And scum to find. People will be wrong on you at times. That's part of this. If I'm wrong on you, I don't deserve this kind of derision you've provided me.

Okay, I've said all I want to say about that!
Let's go through the game and pull some strong town reads out of my ass, shall I?

Urg, first attempt failed, though not for great reasons.
Cabd's early interactions range from neutral to light positive, and their DGB/Kate Bishop interactions read like a townie approaching it. So I have good town vibes. However, the fact he knows me and gets why I (and Niamh) might be sad/upset that our Role PM turned out so miserable, the symapthy there also rang town... which is an issue. I'm going to have a hard time ever feeling comfortable town reading him strongly with that on the resume as one of the main things.
So I need to drop it and space backwards towards other things. I'll see how Cabd takes my reads in the morning, maybe I'll find more town nuggets from him.
But for the moment, Cabd is not strong town the way I am looking for (but he does look town).

GIF on the weak side of strong town. A lot of really solid posts, mixed with a lot of professional lazyness. But a lot of the solid posts are things that are pretty easy to say as scum too, they just flowed very naturally from GIF.
So I'm pretty okay having this is my strong townreads but it's one with a star next to it to re-evaluate more as we move forward, I suspect.
Their openers as town are usually more distinct, from experience, and tend to relate to their own role or the actual game. Here they talk about the delay but that is it.
I think Dunn doing this humour bit means Dunn is comfortable and relaxed in this game. Combine this with Dunn being on Toog before I am, I'm okay with Dunn in strong town. Obviously, if Toog is green, I reconsider all my reads, but I'm not sure a Toog Green here even is that bad for Dunn.
In post 363, Cabd wrote:Wow we get to kill scum AND I get to be lazy and outsource the fire and brimstone to somebody channeling the pure righteous anger of a favorite character done dirty.
Niceu.
Maybe if I'm good enough at town this game scum will be forced to use my brainwashed effect to kill myself, and we can have everything fit together.
Wondering what if scum didnt know who you were and the only way to break the brainwash is if they try to target you with the brainwashed kill :/
SSBM's ISO is 7 posts long. 6 of them have nothing to do with the game, and this one screams town to me. This reads like the thought process of a townie who suddenly thought of this horrible thing and had to share it, not considering how it would be taken.
There's not enough here to hard townbin SSBM, but this is pretty close all things considered. It also makes scum reads on SSBM look much worse, because they've done NOTHING of consequence.

K. Unwnd is just town. Sorry. Hard town read. I'm sure there will be people who disagree (see: When I called Unwnd polarizing) but I'm gonna have a hard time unseeing what I've seen here. Good mix of humour with real scumhunting, makes me feel like unwnd is comfortable and grooving and not fabricating as he goes. There's a lack of stiffness to Unwnd's posts, is the best way to put it.

Marci's nervousness reads extremely real, mostly because I don't think she needs to bring it up as a gambit.
I'm not sure it says anything about her alignment though. I think the nervousness is just true despite her alignment, not informed by it.
That said, Marci is more on the positive side of town than the null people. There's something about the early game posts she made when she was shooting the shit that reads town to me. Not really strong, but I'm into it...

I can't hard townread Luke. He looks TVT in his thing with Unwnd but he also comes out strictly looking worse than Unwnd in that interaction. If I'm GTH, Luke's town, probably. But I'd not ever want that gun against my head right this moment.
