That was actually a serious (and genuinely hypothetical) question to gauge your reaction, but I went and checked and you actually never really did insist that the townslip wasn't real unless I'm missing something?

I mean there's which is mildly towny, though I think your towniest post is and even then that's pretty weak considering you feel pretty tonally different from past games. Might just be that the context is different though.

Yes, I wanted to know if he voted dats in for memes or not

I don’t think dats’ thing about there being 3 scum was AI any more than I think me listing 2 scum is AI for me

The fact that he used it to justify a semi serious vote is opportunistic
In post 328, Menalque wrote:I think his progression on creature does make sense and while it pings me slightly that he voted Icon > creature his reasons for voting icon are the same things that have me unsure about him atm

Also I like that he didn’t hop onto the ‘mena townslipped’ thing and actively called it out

I mean I think this is me pretty explicitly calling it out as not being real

My unease about menal isn’t strong but it’s there
, like I’m a little skittish about how widely townread he is over something that I found NAI and
I think it’s been easy for him to coast on it.
I joined his wagon but I don’t like it in retrospect.
It does feel like a scum-driven wagon unlike the GL wagon.


I’m much happier here. VOTE: GL

I’m also remaining pretty adamant that this is Creature’s scum game,
maybe I’m using old meta but I just disagree with amrun and texcat on him looking town.
There should be no reason for DW to vote GL if the bolded parts are true.

Also that post and this post together make no sense:

Also as I look at this it actually seems kind of perspective slippy? Like calling AFF out for capitalising on “obvious town mistakes” sounds a little too much like she knows they’re town, esp considering her null read on icon? Plus calling icon the most likely mislynch
This is exactly what I couldn't put my finger on when Amrun answered my questions last night. I think if you're going to label what Creature did as the "exact same offense" then you'd be scumreading him too regardless of who AF voted for. The more I think about it, AF seems more and more town and Amrun/Creature are looking more sus. There's been two instances of Amrun turning suspicion away from Creature, once when she voted almidia for his vote on Creature and then again in post 284. Like I'm having a hard time articulating it exactly but it seems to come from the perspective of someone who knows Creature's posts were kinda scummy, acknowledges it because she has to, but doesn't want to follow up on it.

VOTE: Amrun
I think DW is being very opportunistic. It makes me really not like my vote on GL

there’s nothing wrong with my vote. GL is in my top two scum reads and I explained why I’m not voting creature yet.

Blows my mind that you’d call me opportunistic over GL, who has the most opportunistic vote in the game. Your reasoning is awful.

She said the amrun wagon is scum-driven and yet voted it.

P-Edit: pretty sure i called GL scum for his vote.

I find it odd you ended up on both big wagons though.

There’s nothing odd about it. I didn’t love my amrun vote (as I vocalized) and left that wagon. AFTER that, GL became one of my better scum reads and I felt much better about that vote. I don’t see why this concerns you.

Lol.

Why not creature since your adamant about it?

Thank you phone for shifting the page down a moment after loading it and making me hit submit lmao. That was a half-coherent thought and so I considered leaving it and pretending it was intentional but I won't, lol.

Amrun and saying she was getting second thoughts about the wagon.

I mentioned it before but I don’t see us getting anywhere with that today. Amrun made a good case for letting him sort himself out, and I agree with it. You don’t always vote your biggest scum read, sometimes you vote the scum read that has the best chance of flipping.

Ever since GL and Creature jumped on fairly abruptly I’m a lot less sure about the wagon. Menalque continues to defend it even though it’s looking shakier by the moment.

Which brings me to this: why is menalque so widely town-read right now?

If it’s because of his “townslip” during RVS, that’s literally nothing. I’ve done something similar as scum and I’ve done it as town too with full intent both times. So I read nothing into that, purely NAI for me. I did not understand why that “slip” dominated the early discussion.

@menalque, what was your initial progression on amrun and why are still so adamant about it?

I don’t know who I’m scum reading right now. I thought amrun’s response to my vote was level headed and made sense. I don’t think my vote was particularly well reasoned. At the very least I don’t like her at L-1 right now.

UNVOTE: amrun

Leaning slightly scum on GL now, but I only skimmed his posts today so I need to go back through him. Creature I’m still leaning scum on slightly.

@amrun, you said earlier this looked like town!creature based on experience. Where are you now with him? I used to think he was easy to sort but I haven’t been here in years.

I mean I'm widely TR bc I think I'm objectively the towniest slot in the game rn

I don't rly think anyone is town reading me for my "not a townslip" vs the fact that I'm actually solving and sorting people, how caught up are you at this point?

I don't think I am still "so adamant" about it and idk why you're characterising it like that when I've actively said that I'm bothered by the wagon speed, I just don't think that amrun is necessarily towny for having played townier since getting wagoned

plus my initial progression on amrun is p clear if you actually read my ISO

I think my initial concerns over her alim vote and her Pret interactions were bad, but tbh Aaron looks scummier now and that's prob +townpoints for amrun
I also want u to respond to this @dw
