Your first few posts would've pinged to me as a new player on the website who just rolled scum. After that, it kind of got better. Just as a word of advice, people will be suspicious of you when you accuse someone for "not sounding town". Some people on this website do have reads based on that, but it's a minority from what I've seen. It is often regarded as a lazy scum read / town read.

Ah, that explains the heat I got, reading people like this on the other websites i've been is fairly more common

I wanna do something silly, like asking you if you'd vote urap with me, or outright ask you to vote urap with me lmao

Don't do it xD
Honestly, what you can do is to try and play like you are an actual town. Push the people who feel the scummiest to you, me and wazoo will try to play as town as possible so you don't suspect us at all. Imagine you got a vanilla townie pm. This is what most people do on this website.

Well I'm trying to do that, but I'm not used to the meta and how people play here, so I can be read as scum for something I would be read town as on another place

Just try to play town and justify why people's votes or interactions feel off then. Take my case for example, I've explained why Locke vs Urap interaction came off as scum. If you people push you, you can use that and say"On other websites this is how I read people, it might not be as efficient as other people's reads, but it's my play style" and people will back off. I used that as an excuse in my first newbscum game and I got suspicion off of me.

I kinda guessed lol
Do emotional plays work here or do they tend to get scum read?

In this context and if they meta dive me, I should look pretty town. The thing is the person who fills in has to be aware of this and not be suspicious lol

It's scary how accurate urap's read on me is, but unlucky, I know how to exploit that

Whatever happens I feel like I'll have a good case against urap soon enough, so this should be good.

I'll approach a new scum meta from now on and defend my scum buddies when they are pushed

I hope I roll scum next game so I can improve, for this game this was the best move since I had urap in this lobby and he would've scum read me anyway if I didn't do this lol
