Should clarify me/Mare definitely do not have beef, other than the fact that she's a stupid fucking horse girl

"beef" may have been the wrong word, there's just obviously some sort of thing or some kind of history there which was what i was referring to.

It just hit me that she spent eons debating the horse girl topic with me only to literally select the username "Mare" this case is open and shut

Delusional Ingrid stans projecting their horse-isms onto the world.

hmmm
I have mixed thoughts on this

Mostly because Last two times (most recently) we tangoed I was scum and u were town both times so I haven’t actually had a real chance to read you properly

if ur so tired of these interactions why do you still engage in them/feel half-reluctant to? don’t you usually get some useful read out of me

I just don’t rly understand where your heads at here

another in theory Occam’s razor explanation for me is you FINALLY rolled scum without me (literally has never happened) and that is why this interaction feels different and that you are coming up with an excuse that this is happening

i mean I have no idea if ur town or scum but in a vacuum first order perspective that’s how I see this particular issue

how do you think scum!you approaches/pockets me/pushes me?

Also, I can't tell if IV is joking in some of his posts which makes it hard to get a read on him (579).

I think I’ve had enough posts that are not pure shitposts to be semi readable at least

I’m a little sussed out that you are using this an excuse to fencesit me/wait how the rest of the game reads me

Or just like so u don’t have to effort to fake read me or something

you said something similar in mini 2180 I thjnk I can’t remember if that’s true I’ll have to check to be sure

okay this was the scum!midway post i was thinking of and it isn't at all the same thing so disregard this

In general I think most scum are less willing to push back on early suspicion of them because people have self-awareness of their own behavior being scummy and are worried they'll look bad for pushing back

"not seeing anything towny" seems kind of a bit far? His last few posts around skitter/datisi/nsg were weird in a kind of twisty way but I didn't think 698 and the stream of consciousness type thought there where he's typing out an explanation and goes "actually this sounds kind of silly" feels real enough.

i would like to thank all of you for not spamming additional 30 pages while i was asleep

what's making you so confident this early?

I didn't like your interaction with IV earlier and how you both sort of didn't want to go any further. I also found 642 a bit off. But yeah, that doesn't warrant this level of confidence so I don't think I will ISO you rn or anything like that.

i actually think this makes midway kinda townie? like, his whole read of me. i feel like scum!him in this situation would go "i have a light scumread on datisi based on this". and the way he's going "i really think datisi is scum but i think i'm getting confbiased here" makes me think it's more likely that the thoughts are actually real? like, i *think* scum here would be spending more time fleshing out the read on me or trying to justify it, and wouldn't be wasting time in writing how confident they are on it, especially considering scum!him would know these reasons aren't really good and that i *can* post a lot and be annoying so like idk i just don't see this coming from scum!him

also the "datisi/nsg are s/s" feels like a plausible thought.

I'm starting to build a narrative that makes you scum regardless of other alignments(nsg/skitter), and I don't think that is very good. Maybe you are scum, but I don't want to tunnel at this point.

This post. feels too much like something scum would say. like a "ok.. backing off on my push on you.. cause I know you're town... and this isn't working for me" those are definitely the vibes I get from that post.

why do you think scum!midway would be backing off his push on me *already*? like, i'm more scumread than townread, it's not like anyone is getting heat for scumreading me, like literally three seconds ago i started townreading someone for scumreading me? what's the logic behind this?

In post 702, northsidegal wrote:but even still i suppose the point that i'm trying to get across is that you still need some kind of relevant body of work for reference and it just seems strange to me that you take one game as sufficient for that.

is this you just disagreeing with skitter about the quality of her read or is it saying you think skitter's scummy for it? if the latter, is there a reason you didn't mention my townread of andante which is arguably of worse quality?

generally, what makes me townie and what mostly makes my towngames is gut reads, in-moment thoughts, and feeling mostly relaxed and natural

(and townbloc building, but that's follows after reads, obviously). now, the gut reads and thoughts aren't present because this game feels like mud currently and i've gotten very little from it so far. and, i'm aware i'm sounding a bit off tonally, mostly around iv, because this is like the 4th game in recent times where we start off with "r u scum though" and it's gotten repetitive.

also, do you not think you're doing this?

up until the point i posted that? no, i don't think i was doing that. mainly because i saw very little of this game that actually made me think "x is y alignment" (that one post from andante being town!indicative is a rare example). so if i wasn't *having* reads, i knew i didn't post them either. and considering a lot of my relaxedness comes from the fact that i have gutreads and i can act based upon them, and i wasn't having them at that point... yeah, i think i wasn't doing that either.

why do you ask? do you like, disagree that i was giving reads or something? you yourself said you thought my more recent posts weren't as relaxed as before...

In post 729, innocentvillager wrote:if ur so tired of these interactions why do you still engage in them/feel half-reluctant to? don’t you usually get some useful read out of me

because i feel a sort of obligation to? it's like a long-running inside joke, we always scumread each other at the beginning of the game, sort of how i pretty much always open with "oh no ico rolled scum for the umpteenth time" when i play with him recently. or how i joke about george/norwee being scum together. it's a running joke. the problem is that i don't actually GET anything from you alignemnt-wise as i get from ico or george (because i actually kind of don't suck at reading those two). my way of reading you is generally "wait an in-game day or two, and THEN read iv" because form what i know of you, your start as scum is good but you get tired the more the game progresses, while you don't get the same tiredness as town. i can't read you early game and i don't try to. but i continue the joke, mostly because of social pressure actually. i don't wanna be the person that stopped doing the joke, it feels rude.

if i was giving the impression that i was actually successfully sorting you in last games, lol idk. in that mini normal, your early "scumread" of me felt contrasting enough to the rest of the game's read of me that i felt like i could actually get insight into your thoughts there. here i would just go "yeah i can see it" because i CAN see it because this game feels like mud currently.

In post 730, innocentvillager wrote:how do you think scum!you approaches/pockets me/pushes me?

no clue. i did think about what i would do if i rolled scum against you in some prior games, and my generally plan would've been "try to survive d1, kill him asap on n1". as for how would the "try to survive d1" look, no clue.

when did this turn into a wall i'm gonna post it for now

i skipped over this originally - skitt, is this just a general read? because from what i remember of my own scumplay, my plan in the early game often was "post some nonsense, if someone starts attacking me, pry into their read on me, poke holes in their case and argue with them". now, i can't remember if you've *played* in any games where i've done that as scum, but i don't remember my recent scumplay reflecting what catboi said at all, so.

now, this might look like i am just sheeping catboi, but

VOTE: s_s

faq:

"does this mean you're now townreading flow trap?"
no, right now i don't feel like trying to sort someone who has 113 posts, of which probably at least 100 aren't game related.

"why are you voting s_s?"
i realized his iso is like, nothing game related. i can imagine scum!s_s being lazy here.

"are you scum?"
go into the scum pt, look at post #0, do you see my name written there?

tjanks Datisi I feel better about you already


i mean I will keep an eye i you but I like your response for now

And I wanted to push mwb before you because I think he’s scummy, I don’t subscribe to Occam’s razor as a philosophy

do u really thjnk nightkilling me as scum is necessary/do you actually think I would be a big threat to you given that I’ve never seen your scumgame (as town)? i don’t rly believe that honestly but you did say you thought about it in past games so /shrug and I don’t thnk ud lie about that

is it strictly necessary? i don't know. my impression of your towngame is that you get really solvey and really spammy and that scum!me would have a difficult time pushing you. plus you're familiar with my scumgame which makes you dangerous to scum!me. but i can't say that i would always 100% nightkill you n1 as scum because that also depends on how you're reading me at that moment, how the majority of the game is reading you, whether there's any outed pr's, whether there's anyone who's an even bigger threat... like, you would definitely be a strong n1 contender for me, but to say that i would ALWAYS nk you n1 would be a lie.

you’re townreading mwb for one post that seems soc and where he says it’s sounds silly as he’s typing it out?

Well idk if it *makes* him scum, but that interaction on his side pinged me a bit, and it was a bit overly defensive imo. Or like caring too much abt nsg's criticism if that makes sense

Well ig i was asking more abt the relaxed nature and ingame thoughts bit, no i dont really think your reads have been super impressive or anything

But like if you dont think you've been relaxed than maybe i'm reading you wrong and shouldnt be giving you townpoints for it
