Tried to deflect by saying I was reading too much into them, very much tried to back off Puppets gradually without suddenly just dropping the read in case doing so appeared too forced.

Not too keen on the way they unvoted Mala in . Again they point out Mala hasn't engaged much despite the complaints about having to catch up and I was at a point in D1 where I'd have agreed Mala was a reasonable compromise wagon. But instead of continuing on this path and trying to force more from Mala, Rad just sort of backs off immediately instead of continuing in their efforts to push the slot, despite also sort of not really rescinding the scumread either?

I think Rad maybe voted Taly when the gladiate first happened because they felt it was the only viable option for scum to pursue, even if getting rid of Ceph could potentially be advantageous. Rad then suddenly unvotes and is baffled at the idea of others wanting to kill Taly - seems they are perhaps positioning themselves as scum who sits off the vote entirely, so either way they don't look suspect when the loser of the gladiate comes back as town (presuming Taly is also town in this scenario). But then the momentum begins to shift to Ceph and it instead becomes conductive for scum to eliminate there instead.

I'm good, that take is kinda silly, ngl.

I think that I have have been one of the loudest most aggressive pushers this game. Between pushing Math, Dunn, and Frog lol

don't you know Luke

not only are we in complete control of the game and the game state and deciding who lives and dies but we're doing it by not pushing or doing anything memorable at all.

it's like we're the illuminati or some shit

If you've played mafia for awhile now I'm sure you've encountered one of those wordy posts that scum makes to look busy but the contents are pretty weak.

here malcolm did a play by play by commentary on rad's action while adding a bit of his own scum narrative as if every rad's actions are scum motivated.
they made it as if it's a big solid case but the content are weak and could be summed up in a few sentences

I don't think it's a bad take at all.

The way Malcolm describes my play is heavily descriptive on the scum!Rad side. I'm the sneaky snake scum and every single thing I do can be explained by some sneaky snake scum motivation. Read through Malcolm's content about me and tell me it doesn't read like a fucking mystery novel describing events in detail that assumes my scummy emotions at every turn.

I haven't concluded why he's approaching his cases about me like this, but I think it's probably 1 of 2 options.

1. town!Malcolm is conf biased as fuck and can only view my actions through the Rad Is Scum FOR SURE lense.

2. scum!Malcolm is bloating his cases on me with all the nonsense that Mislim Bait has spotted.

It's basically why the more Malcolm posts about me, the more I read him scum. He assigns emotions to me that are literally not there. He spells out my choices for reasons that are absolutely untrue. And he's so sold on the conclusions and seems to have such a hard time looking at me from any sort of town angle that I find it hard to believe it's coming from town.

@rad, fair. I basically summarised Malcolm's post as 'rad has occasionally backed off from confrontation ', which I do see. I also think that town do make these weird stories, because I do think it is what professor drapion is doing to me - it kind of doesn't matter what I respond, they've decided a thing and their narrative is stronger.

Is the difference that Malcolm is talking more like you are villain?
