All of these are the same thing: me pointing out weird interactions with springlullaby. All of those terms are generalizations/specifications of the same concept. You read what you want to read.

Could you rephrase this? I don't know what it's saying. Who specifically would you scum read from Spring's flip based on the way she has been treated so far. Earlier you implied that you would scum read me and Lady upon a town flip. Is this the case? This is the third time I'm asking this btw.
As for the rpg, i want to see what hectic ends up concluding. And it's a fun read.
I'm referring to your 556. Did you mention Hectics cyoa thing somewhere?
(4)
Yes, sorry.
If springlullaby flips town, those who attacked her hard have higher scum equity and i'll be more incline to believe her most confident defenders have been TMIing her. If she flips scum, the strong attackers have less scum equity and i would look into those who attacked her attackers. Rarely scum do whiteknight their partners this early in the game - if they go about defending them, it's usually more subtle, such as a low-to-moderate chainsaw defense tactic.
That said, this does not guarantee a confident read on anyone, and currently my main reads are that springlullaby and conchorde are independently scummy for their dayplay. Lady Chloe, and
(5) to a lesser extent you
for wanting springlullaby as a leader, are dependent on her flip.
Also 556 is from Kerset, i think he's asking what RPG mechanics are you referring to, which would be xp and levelup.

Honestly - you put effort into this case, but it's weak, reachy and loaded. This is worth analyzing - is this outside of your scumrange? Please link some of your scumgames.
It is hard enough to filter this game with 2/3 top three posters argue and bicker for pages on end, but for you both to assume I and other players pick sides is a scum-motivation or scum-favored tactic on both of you.
I'm speaking to you, Farkran, who deem Ame and I as potential associatives to potential springlullably-scum without even consulting our opinions of her, which is an easy excuse for you.
I'm speaking to you, springlullaby, because your voting is inconsistent and it's difficult to navigate where you want this day to go, you calling for my opinion is dismissive of what I try to tell you.
If you both believe the other is scum, then drop the conversation, and negotiate with other players.

springlullaby shows a willingness to indulge in my thoughts, while providing an option alternate to my vote on ending the day.
Farkran waits to reply to another person, outlining that I am independently a scumlean despite his previous reasons of suspecting me to be associative, and inquires to another player if they believe I have faked being the mediator.
While both may come from either alignment given a player's skill, I enjoy springlullaby's best given the necessity for town to reach a consensus on the game. One is an example of good faith solving, and the other being less so.
This was the hands-on sorting that I needed to read them better.

This is the underlying point on why I haven't voted to capture springlullaby.
As well as point on my hesitance to capture. Some PRs may mechanically need as many XP-gain opportunities as available to effectively serve town.
Capture is not a lynch, but some town players may feel the reward of using their powers to it's highest potential to outweigh the risk of claiming.
This is my final point on the ability of no capture. I accept rebuttals.

I replied to Raya because it was Raya pointing out that your 848 was town, while i think you could be able to fake it. It's not part of why i scumlean you, it's an opinion on whether or not that post was indicative of being town, so i asked Raya if he found your post tonally similar to Pine's. I think it isn't but that doesn't make you scum.
I originally suspected her, mafia with either Hectic or momo for what I pointed out in 282.
I continually felt conflicted with her, since her insistence on deeming others as scum so loudly may be to block out the belying noise of scum itself.
Yet, I've grown to unsubscribe from the reasons other suspect her. I townlean her, she wears no veil to hide, and she asserts her views confidently with an option to compromise that doesn't alter her viewpoints. I think if she were mafia, she has placed herself in a disadvantageous and risky position. I have little desire to reconsider now.
848 was to survey her in a different manner than I did before, and I drew greater solidity in the read for doing so.
In post 882, Ame wrote:(2) What are your thoughts on Raya? In particular, I'm curious what you think about her read on you and on Pine as presented in 854.
In a game where scum have incentive to doubt others at any possible angle, Raya focusing on forging townreads is a grand strategy... and a town one.
The nuance she followed up with in 874 for Pine and I, are hard to falsify with a scum mindset. She had ample opportunity to subtly shift the narrative against either two of us, as well as springlullaby and Ginngie, but did not.
In post 882, Ame wrote:(3) I don't think momo ever responded to your 282 or did he? If not, how come you haven't followed up on it? If so, what did you get (or intend to) get out of it?
He has not followed-up, to my belief.
I have no reason to follow-up until he has. I still suspect him.
I want his reply to that post - however irrelevant it may be now - to see how he rationalizes Hectic's and springlullaby's reads and approach. He voiced confidence in his capture vote, and I wanted to see if his rationale aligned with such.

Also, for the record, i went back to re-examine chloe after posting 904, and found out that Ame's scumcase is definitely tunnelvisioned, and based on personality frictions/omgus rather than genuine thoughts. This is 100% coming from a
conclusion before evidence
process, and contrary to popular belief i think this most often comes from town, not scum. The process of getting upset to someone scumreading you and confbiasing while reading their posts is a consequence of not knowing people's alignments - you do not get upset if their read on you is correct, rather you disengage or deflect the accusations elsewhere to stay away from the spotlight.
This does not apply to every scum player out there. In fact, i never back off from 1v1s as either alignment and can produce tunneled/backward reasoning as scum too, but that's what i want to verify about Ame's scumrange by checking her scumgames.
I wish i could have spoilertagged the quotes but unfortunately nested spoilers will break the bbcode.
The following are examples of how Ame easily overlooked similar behavior from Chloe whereas using the same evidence category to call me scum:
In post 892, Ame wrote:Like you changed it two times.

Do you think that your apologies in post [452[/post] were necessary? Or at least, as necessary/unnecessary as my apologies in post 818?
Do you think that complimenting Ame's Brain (353), or asking her questions about how you should behave as town (last lines of 353 and 781), were necessary or in any way indicative of you being part of a particular alignment?
The questions are rhetorical of course - none of that evidence points to town or scum for you, and it -correctly- wasn't used in a scumcase against you. However, they have been used as a scumcase against me, and that has much more to do with Ame being upset than indicative of a specific alignment. Like, she is clearly displaying an attempt to sort me, but she is combing the thread only to find evidence to support a specific result, which is scum!Farkset, rather than reading and deducing or comparing said evidence to my previous meta or other players, because her analysis stops immediately as soon as she finds something adequate to support her theory.
It's not a terrible push, because it can be part of the town mindset and desire to be correct, find scum, the hope that your teammates aren't so bad and wrong as to call you scum when you know you aren't. Can it be faked? absolutely, but it requires large amounts of effort and willpower to maintain it consistent. Hence why i want to compare her to her past scumgames.

pedit: like, i'm sorry that the conversation displeases you. I don't know what to do about that. There are 3 scum in this game, i think you are plausibly one of them. This is no offense to your persona or playstyle, and i wonder why you would think i am displeasing you. Where did i display a distaste of your behavior as a person, rather than a scumlean of your play? Disagreement is not distaste, i would think?
Also, my point about your post 848 is exactly that it does
not
impact my opinion on your alignment, and i asked Raya why he would think it should impact his own. It has little to do with you, rather it has to do with Raya.

None of this was ever personal, Farkran. I don't know where you gathered this impression.
Yes, scum may fake 848, but my post in 901 veiled a solving utility, and you entertained the reality of me being scum more than one where I was sorting; but you did not commit to a viewpoint. That's my grievance with your approach to this slot.
My speech to Ame is related to my agreement with her. I had no prediction or expectation on how she would reply because I was not concerned with it.
Supposing by your final point that your post was directed more to understanding Raya, I will hold my tongue. Perhaps I misread you here.
