my first thought looking at the votes
why did NSG/me, redtea, and Esooa not join a wagon on D1? If Farren is scum that's probably important to figure out
i saw that someone mentioned thinking T3 was lazy scum whereas Esooa is lower effort town and the votes from a surface level seeeems to suggest that i suppose
i will of course do real reading later but the wagons stalling yesterday with 3 ppl not committing caught my eye- Morning Tweet

or if redtea is town then like Farren/T3/Esooa i guess
This hinges on the ich/flow/dann townbloc u seem to have going being correct though which i dont have a perspective of
But I recall reading that I think Ich was undeniably town by meta (or perhaps that was flow), either way, and also someone said that they were spewed town by gamestate -- so thats probably fine at least
pedit: Oh i got it twisted, i see
I see Ich says Esooa is hanging back which is indictative of scum!them. In that case I'm probably more critical of them because it seems like hanging back just let the Enchant wagon go through without a commitment, so if that was in scum's best interest im immediately concerned by that- Morning Tweet

Farren and T3 already gone over since they seem scumread and also the wagon stall which seems odd that 3 people would just not vote

i like to do some guesswork before i actually read and give some rapid fire takes because i struggle to do that as scum, im a lot more deliberate
I suppose my philosophy is you do everything you can to display your mindset. I'm confused exactly what you mean by people taking advantage, though i may be missing something- Morning Tweet

I was under the impression those were the more consensus town but i think i forget how early this game is so i dont think that really exists yetIn post 948, redtea wrote:kind of curious on the "hinges on the ich/flow/dann townbloc" part
my idea was that i was ignoring the players who seemed mainly townread (Ich because heavening obviously and Dann because i dont see anyone suspecting Dann and he was at the top of Ich's list). Flow i think i got twisted
and then from i rest i was figuring Farren probably more likely scum from the weird VC at end of day and maybe scum just wanted to let Enchant go through. im hearing now that there was a whole T3 segment and apparently Enchant did something questionable though
I also had a look at Farren at the end of d1/start of today and im kinda not sure where Ich's confidence of them being scum comes from
So now I'm at Ich's second tier above the last containing scum (like T3 and Esooa) although that seems like an unsurprising take. I suppose the hinging on the townreads part means though i am assuming that Dann/Ich/flow?? are town despite not having looked myself yet- Morning Tweet

Getting into it now!
Okay i immediately like flow trap's early game the least of anyone's i read, page 5 now. It's just especially....... flippant, I guess? So that's kinda funny. Probably doesnt mean anything but like on surface level id probably have voted flow, see NSG did as well

in any case NSG sounds townier than she did in One Night, that might have to do with the nature of the rep-in back in that game. my point overall is probably that i wouldve townleaned her, could be biased
Flow's early game does come across as odd to me, im not sure if i could have quantified it like this though.In post 134, Dannflor wrote:I was also immediately pinged by #26. It is averyodd comment to make two pages into the game when there are only two ostensibly RVS votes on northsidegal. This is compounded by the fact that Farren explained his vote clearly only a few votes before.
so, it seems like flow trap is both just posting an observation to post without actually thinking about the game on a deeper level. I also thought a townie entering the game here would interact more with the people already posting, or even join the already built wagon.
flow trap did neither so my observation in #13 was less tongue-in-cheek than might have been first interpreted. I didn't really scum read flow trap off of that, but that was my first reaction of, "huh that's a bit awkward." but then I tried to coax flow trap to join the wagon on NSG and they just refused for seemingly no real reason. I felt like he was using the cutesy-memey responses to avoid having to take responsibility foractivelyavoiding the wagon.
like i tend to think townies, especially in RVS, are on average more likely to swing their vote around and build wagons even for n/a reasons. I don't know flow trap and I'm probably not going to meta them anytime soon but I am still lacking a sense of why their approach to voting nsg was like oil on water
I don't think that overall really says anything about northsidegal's alignment, more just that flow trap seemed to be deliberately avoiding taking a bold stance (like being the third vote on a wagon could be seen as)
Posting observations just to post, mm, I guess maybe. I think your point that "I also thought a townie entering the game here would interact more with the people already posting, or even join the already built wagon." (which u mention a couple times) is a stretch, since early games can vary so wildly.
Hmm, haven't decided what i make of it overall. I think flow came across as weird but i think the additional points that he didnt interact the way "thought a townie would" are overkill- Morning Tweet

I have a question for flow, would you say lots and losts of posts that are mostly jokes are typically how you operate in your scum meta?
Interestingly i recall that Ich townreads flow now so i suppose that scum meta read they had didnt hold up but ill ask anyway
So you put flow trap in your town block 5 minutes ago, but you can't remember any reason why, and you're townreading NSG for being wrong.In post 159, T3 wrote:
Because you used bad reasoning but were correct as to why in your townread of me so I think the thought was real.In post 153, northsidegal wrote:why are you townreading me or flow trap?
Actually I don't know why I'm townreading flow trap.
I wish i knew more about how T3 operates to interpret that. I am quite familiar with how you're eliminated in just about every game i've ever seen you appear in but not much else
That felt good to you?In post 161, Dannflor wrote:I can maybe see T3 town now
Admittedly i recall townreading T3 in the past for weird thought processes but if i remember right it was because he DID seem to show a deeper thought process, not lack one then admit to it openlyWhy say this

I hate that im scumreading T3 cause i dont know if im scumreading the portion of their play that is baseline always scummy or not.

I at least lean towards that he is just saying things so far. But it's so hard to put any kind of conviction behind that statement.
I want to say T3 doesnt do this to a partner since he loses no matter what he does if someone votes scum!flow, whereas he wins no matter what if someone puts flow to E-1 (he can hammer, flow was a more scummy consensus player, or he can not hammer and it's whatever since flow is town).

and I feel like that's usually more likely to come from scum. like she didn't really engage with any part of my post or explain *what* about my explanation was good? #232 feels kinda tacked on to fill in for the original read's weakness, although to be fair I have come to a town read for similar reasons as asking the same questions
the rest of the iso ranges from fiiiine to good I think. I feel like I'm missing where exactly the reads are coming from in some instances, which is why I'm asking about the t3 one specifically, the Farren push reads mostly genuine though
although because of that right now I feel like they could make a good flow trap partner so my hero solve right now is gonna be esooa + flowtrap + someone else random I don't know yet. but that's me at 2:30 am talking
why did you ask me specifically and why about this slot specifically? also if i may return the favor, thoughts on redtea?
Sigh I'm not sure
Those are good townreads i think for that pointIn post 308, Ich Troje wrote:Flow and Farren are locktown for me atp.
My gun to head now is that Esooa/Dannfloor/NSG/redtea contains all 3 scum, listed by strength of read.
I didnt really bother to quote but Farren's thought process as he works through it after things happen **seems** genuine to me. Not super familiar with how he plays though
Fucking hell, i mean... maybe. Alternatively, scum can let T3 scum his way out of the game, let town push him, profit ??. I'm not sure scum is more likely to just write him down as a scumreadIn post 336, Dannflor wrote:I'm wary of the secondary tier T3 scum reads because I feel like if town - he's going to be a slot scum are always going to want to have in their back pocket as a miselim
like the way people are sort of dancing around his slot is feeling... performative? at the very least it makes me think Enchant/T3 are less likely to be aligned - the "meta I can't talk about" is a non-case but also taken seriously enough that it reads genuine. could easily be scum picking a random push on an easy townie but i lean towards that not being an lolrandom bus
It's not a bad thought process from Dann but im feeling moderately worried about him
Ugh ugh ugh I get weird feelings whenever Dann talks to anyone rn i dont know why.In post 337, Dannflor wrote:

idk I would have expected you to make up a more "legitimate" sounding reason at some point, or shown a read progression, but you just openly admitted you did not
I will elaborate on flow trap in probably a bigger reads list a little later in the day, I'm waiting for nsg to post a little more and specifically curious if her read on flowtrap has changed at all
The interactions with T3/Esooa, giving reasoning for why scumreading T3 may be in scum's best interest (which I admit sounded good!), not liking Esooa but pivoting off (as well as Esooa not liking Dann but not enought to do any push about it and instead voting flow/Farren). And those posts I quoted between T3 and Dann were just slightly odd to me
If i map out who seems like scum in my head, well town first -- i could see an Ich/redtea/Farren town with Dann/Esooa/T3 team and.... wait is that the entire game? Who am i forgetting OH flow who i also think is town
Holy shit there are a lot of scum in this kinda game.T3 sheeps Farren who he was wanting to yeet into hell earlier onto Esooa because reasons. It's probably pointless for me to even point out this kinda stuff i guess, but i could see maybe distancing as a reason. That's probably a huge stretch rn though to assign that kind of reasoning but yeah
Are these three constantly talking to each other or am I losing my mind over nothing because im just focusing on them moreIn post 368, Esooa wrote:T3 can you give an actual read on me

then there's what.. flowtrap? They seem fine. I don't remember the rest. Oh yeah, enchant. I think their reasoning for voting t3 was towny but it's something I've seen better wolves use, I think it's probably towny though. As for koba, one sec

i think Esooa on page 17 has a point that she can manoeuvre her vote how she likes even if the SR on the first person hasn't disappeared
but like at the same time I want to lean Farren is town. Even though i dont think I necessarily agree with his reasoning that Esooa must be faking a scumread on him due to the vote swap -- I think Esooa is righteously responding to an incorrect read there. I fully believe Esooa would switch that vote around as either alignment, essentially.
I'm crossing my fingers that T3 does something crazy to justify not killing esooa after she almost dies, or something, so i can be right. But yea let's see lets seeIn post 432, T3 wrote:

The words on page 19 are really not making sense to my brain, I think i'm a bit too sleepy. I'll still try to evaluate it
I'm very conflicted because on one hand it's an impressive mindset from Dann and it does come across like he is actively thinking -- like he had the thought north was emulating RC, he identifies parts of her play he finds different from usual, and finally he points out posts which, essentially, he's saying "These questions aren't asking much".
NSG pointing out that the questions were more rhetorical, as a type of comment than anything makes sense to me -- but I am so damn tired i cant actually tell what 388 is saying =w=
Dann gives me the impression he feels like he's got something, but simultaneously it does feel a *liiittle* bit like he's harping on a minor point and making it seem larger than it is. Like, asking a rhetorical question isn't really... a playstyle, is it.In post 458, Dannflor wrote:
I just don't remember you as being a very rhetorical playerIn post 456, northsidegal wrote:that is to say, the question is meant to demonstrate what i'm thinking, but also meant to be posed sort of to the playerlist at large rather than just to esooa.
as far as the addressing the actual point on Esooa, I am really not what you are seeing either - which may have contributed to how much I balked at your posting there
like I feel #385 is evidence of a deeper thought process running underneath esooa's earlier actions, not evidence that she is making up reads on the spot. it's consistent with her earlier actions and I think the fact that it is more developed is just a consequence of being prompted to share some of that underlying thought process.
could you elaborate on what you found scummy in their initial posting spree?
K im going to pick up on page 19 tomorrow but i kept skimming forward cause i was curious andIn post 499, T3 wrote:This reaction reads to me as genuine?Oh my fucking god all of Esooa/T3/Dann have scumread each other but ended up retracting and my pattern recognition is going nuts for it
Okay that's not totally true. Dann and T3 scumread Esooa but retracted. Esooa scumread Dann but retracted. Dann and T3 just had that part that pinged me early where Dann calls T3 maybe town now and T3 goes "Are you scum??". , but T3 ultimately TRs Dann. Dann has T3 null. The only read that hasn't gone anywhere is that Esooa never stopped scumreading T3 (from what i can tell skimming ISO).
it is worth noting Esooa got kinda ticked off at T3 for making a meta read but not terribly familar with if emotion means anything for her. T3 certainly bought it quickly though, all it took was some frustration and he dropped her from the bottom of his reads
Okay I'm going to sleep, i am excited to see if im still hot about my team theory or not tmrw. I think the only reason i consider it so strongly is that i *believe* Ich/Farren are probably town so far and that's like almost the entire game already cause theres so much scum. Granted I think my redtea and flow reads are kinda shaky. we will see we will see- Morning Tweet

lol i was about to get a little annoyed, forgot what phase we were in
I'm back for round #2. Will my Ich/Farren TRs + Redtea/flow TLs + Dann/Esooa/T3 team be torn to pieces ???
the couple of times i was reflecting about some of the stuff i said
This is the kinda read I make as scum in order to justify not voting someoneIn post 336, Dannflor wrote:I'm wary of the secondary tier T3 scum reads because I feel like if town - he's going to be a slot scum are always going to want to have in their back pocket as a miselim

It's too.... I don't know how to explain. It's the kind of thing that is the means to an end more than an actual read (at least if I used it). Cause see, you could do it like any number of ways depending on what u need:
"If T3 is town, I think the scum are going to keeps SRs there for an easy miselim option"
"If T3 is town, I figure scum are going to keep him null and let down deal with him most likely"
"If T3 is town, there's no good reason to actually TR him, non-scumreaders are probably TMIing"
idk if that conveys my thinking well. The point is id make a read like that as scum. Also "but i lean towards" is phrasing i use as scum a bit more often but that's a non-point since obviously i dont know if thats true for Dann
And maybe that wouldn't bother me so much if it weren't for this:In post 159, T3 wrote:

But also T3's response.. just like why do you say that.. it just seems like awkwardly feeling like u gotta reply to partner to distance i d f k.
And T3 is in Dann's nulls, he obviously preferred Enchant yesterday and apparently flow (havent got there tho). Just seems sort of partner like

3. despite esooa's wolfy read of ich's post, she takes the generous route
4. so the question posed is: why is esooa, especially considering her meta, being generous and defensive, instead of firing back?
now that i'm laying it out, i don't think i fully comprehended this post at the time lmao
nsg kicks ass
i dont have anywhere to go with this im just being a helpful teacher's pet because i crave human interaction and have nothing else to do
I think I understand. It's all kinda circular. Ich calls Esooa more defensive/fighty as town, Esooa goes the generous route and doesn't get annoyed with Ich, but in doing so is doing the thing that Ich said would be scummier.
That is a hell of a post LOL.
So I do make posts (although they're a lot less detailed than that one) which are essentially going "Hmm.. you're doing X and Y even though Z, aren't you.." and i like dont really expect them to say something particularly helpful in response, it's just a comment to remind myself, show thought process, start discussion, whatever. So a rhetorical question or essentially a comment I guess. Sometimes it's not because you're expecting a helpful answer. Okay let me read Dann's post understanding better

My model of you as a player is similar to what you've described as first making a prediction, then asking a question, and then updating whether privately or publicly. I also think you are like me in that you tend to spend a good amount of time observing before completely outing everything in your head, before later in the game becoming more completely transparent as you try to put all the information you've collected together. But specifically I also don't think of you as someone who likes to "lead the witness" or ask questions you know you're not going to get a revealing answer from. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think you're someone who like builds a case against someone by like putting pressure on someone until they crack - you ask questions yes but you usually also try to give enough space to let that person comfortably show that they are town
This is why I asked you that question because I don't feel you've been playing the way I expect you to, most egregiously in your back and forth with esooa
specifically posts #386 and #388 felt very... out of character for my conception of how you would react in this situation. both questions appear to me to not really be questions? Like I don't believe you actually thought you were going to get a informative answer out of esooa either way here. You're framing an observation or essentially a "case" as a question for the person you're accusing, and not really in a way that allows for esooa to respond in any other way than basically "uh no" which is indeed how she reacted. you say you don't normally like to "lead the witness" and it feels like that is exactly what you're doing.
like did you actually get anything out of asking those questions? you disappeared from the conversation after you asked them. it feels more like a "gotcha" than you were genuinely interested in figuring out if there was a townie motivation for esooa's read there.
would you agree, that if town, esooa probably isn't going to respond to #388 with anything other than a variation of "uh no?" would you expect scum!esooa to have a different answer?
I got the point you were making on that page but honestly? it feels more like you found something scummy you could push rather than you finding an inconsistency and wanting to genuinely question it.
I still feel like Dann is blowing something up to being scummier than it is, just like with flow at the beginning of the game. The RC modelling points are not bad at all and tbh I think shows a very impressive thought process if Dann is scum. I think the "it feels like you were going for a 'gotcha' rather than genuine questioning" point is overkill. It feels somewhat less likely to me that Dann got that conclusion from again what I think is more a comment worded as a question. Adding in the "you disappeared afterwards" and such feels like blowing something small into something bigger
Mm mm mmm it's so tricky though, I could believe it from town too- Morning Tweet

Spoiler:
Every time you three interact in any capacity the alarm bell in my brain gets a little bit louder
Specifically i could see you and Dann goodcop/badcopping NSG since you don't really disagree with Dann but you're also keeping NSG as town so you're fine with both and the push (which is your counterwagon) can continue.
And obviously every time Dann/T3/Esooa interact extraneously (like asking Dann that question before realizing it didn't really need asking) i freak out a little. I'm pretty sure I'm just confbiased and tuning into these things but it's so interesting to me i cant help but comment on it everytime i see it so sorry for that

Esooa interacts with Ich noticeably different from T3 even though in Esooa's eyes both of their scumreads are bad (regardless of alignment, probably -- T3 doesnt elaborate beyond sheeping and Ich is using meta Esooa says is irrelevant). I guess that might just be a preexisting relation with Ich though. Still kind of doubt Esooa and Ich go for that as buddies........ I think. Could see T3 and Ich doing it although granted T3 is putting Esooa at risk for basically no reason other than i guess distancing of some sort
And distancing is important in this setup! But does scum know that... well I've been reading like they do, in any case

Seems like Farren is town though i dont think there was any point to doing that as scum at all. I see Ich took it as a discredit though. I sort of lean against that, not really sure im seeing the point of discrediting one particular read by one player about a future phase that hasnt even happened yet

ich troje is currently one of my top town reads and that's really the only criteria i care about beyond them beyond town reading me
This isn't really a discredit though, this is just setting NSG up as being one that you must be very sure is town to heaven. If Dann and Farren were both scum setting up seeds so they can paranoia on players later, Dann is setting a finely-tuned and subtle trap whereas Farren is basically outright announcing he is setting up a landmine and putting a bright red "X" where he places it
If that makes sense o.o
Nevertheless I can appreciate the heavy irony of making a read literally seconds after I have the opposite take on a similar read. I crack myself up sometimes- Morning Tweet

Oh good I'm at the weird end of day i mentioned all the way back at the start of my rep-in!! With context now!
Flow trap, T3, and Dann are still voting for Enchant for... whatever reasoning I guess when Enchant had that small burst of posts.
Enchant and Esooa are obviously still on T3 with quite some conviction. Then Farren joins and it is reiterated that Enchant will die if nothing happens.
Redtea unvoted a couple of pages ago. Thinks flow is mafia but scumleans on Enchant at least a bit. NSG I take it was just gone.
..
Flow trap listens to Ich and votes for Farren for whatever reason, so now T3 is going to die. and T3 votes for Farren so Farren is second place..
T3 convinces Farren to switch off of him and vote out Enchant instead. Holy shit lol and T3 just so happens to "not scumread Farren", okay. I will note Farren's behaviour is actually pretty towny to me here, i think him pondering and realizing that T3 can betray him if he wants but overall it'll be better for knowledge is just something that'd be harder to have faked. Page 32 for reference.
But yeah T3 though. Lol. Basically just did whatever to survive, i dont exactly buy that he just so happened to townread Farren
You mean yourself. If you cared about Farren, why would you vote him over yourself. Especially considering your limbait past. How is this something you thought about as town at allIn post 797, T3 wrote:I only voted Enchant because I wanted to save farren and me.
Surely you would have not swapped to Farren as town, just seems odd to me. Im gonna review that again tomorrow though see if i still feel strongly about that. Makes no sense to me rn

You know you werent being limmed hereIn post 789, Farren wrote:Oh yeah, twilight is a thing. I can post until flipped.

Last words: keep Ich Troje out of heaven.
Do you have a conclusion from this as to NSG's alignment? It seems like you're implying she's at least slightly more likely scum. At least enough paranoia to not be sure enough to Heaven her, despite wanting her there, i would say (・ω<)In post 806, Dannflor wrote:I think the general stereotype/reputation of NSG as a player is that she has an excellent town game, so excellent, in fact, that meta is an strong tool to catch her with when she's scum. she also tends to prefer town and has a much higher posting rate and WIM when town. I think she *might* tend to make more time for games where she rolls town but i wouldn't consider flakiness or lurking to be strictly AI *by itself*
nsg can feel free to correct me on any of that assessment obviously but that's how I assess the general perception of her as a player

Fun game to read although in hindsight i would have liked more content to read, actually! I've got *some* thoughts competing in my head
Redtea is a townlean i feel i cannot be certain of. In a way, same with flowtrap. I don't really know yet.
Really like Redtea's take on Farren now in hindsight. Is he right about Farren cause they're informed or because they're right (i think) town? Eeeeeeh idk yet
And there are glimpses of Dann and Esooa that i see on occasion that makes me pause. So, can't really be sure.. im really not there
T3 just gets scummier as I read though I have no idea why he's not being called out harder. Including by Dann who seemingly has him null. Ich and Farren I get are kinda distracted, though.
Im still offput by T3/Dann together, so Dann just doesnt find T3 scummy and ignores him in favour of Enchant, Dann had the theory that scum will want to SR T3 so he's wary of scumreading him too easily.. T3 interacts with Dann sort of awkwardly for no reason.... like mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm- Morning Tweet

there's a sizable difference when i rep in as town versus scum but it's not effort-wise. This is my scum rep-in
The difference is whether or not im willing to constantly have takes versus keeping everyone mostly at "slight town" or "null". you can probably guess which one of those i do as scum constantly.- Morning Tweet

there's no night kills so you just have to do it yourself
fucked up
And usually the house starts to crumble if the leader goes absent. you've got all the associatives
So if scum were to get flipped I probably wouldn't be terribly beat up about it if they were someone we were never going to catch. I suppose my point is that you don't *have* to heaven top town. Although it's probably the most intuitive and safest.

Then how does someone you think has a "diseased town brain" and comes up with a "crackpot paranoia theory" makes a good Heaven candidate, given the existence of Judgment Day?
Okay, so why does Farren need to stop you in specific from getting voted in? Let's go over the context.. Farren has already expressed a townlean on you. Farren isn't saying you're scummy, he is contesting Dann's reasoning to have you go to heaven when he describes you as having diseased town brainIn post 673, Ich Troje wrote:Farren, it feels really badly like you're setting up to avoid voting for me D2 and planting excuses as well as pushing others to not do so either. Not sure what to think of it.
It seems most likely to me this came from a misunderstanding of what "diseased town brain" meant, no? farren seems to interpret it as "Ich is a tinfoil conpiracy theorist all the time" when Dann more or less was just applying it to the one read you made on Dann/NSG that one time as a reason to TR you.
But maybe Farren fakes the misunderstanding or is just trying to discredit you. Why do you think he feels the need to do that?
Also while im on the subject, you seem to have misinterpreted Farren as saying "I dont want that in heaven", when he was actually saying "Why would you want that in Heaven, Dann?"In post 662, Ich Troje wrote:Farren, do you think i have a "diseased town brain" then?
Because that's dann's read, not yours, but you took it and said "i dont want that in heaven".
Addtionally, you had a really hard TR on Farren before this point, so I **reeallly** question why you're taking the nongenerous route that he's discrediting you rather than the generous one that he is simply questioning Dann's logic.- Morning Tweet

That is really funny that you were taking his scum meta though lol. My point being is that you were townreading Farren very hard up til that point so theoretically you're actually a good heaven candidate. Scum doesn't need to send scum to heaven, they can actually just send pocketed townies just fine. Anyway,

I do not risk my life like that as scum unless there is a significant reward outweighing the risk. T3 could easily have switched back to me, and I'd be dead instead.
The only way scum|me doesn't have to worry about that is if T3 is scum as well. In which case, that entire song-and-dance is completely unnecessary, and everything was faked.
And there's no way scum|me could fake that ending, unless *Enchant* was scum and in on it. The timing was too tight unless I know it's happening in advance. Given that Enchant didn't say anything until *literally* the last minute, and given that Enchant flipped Town - not possible.
As for you - no. Not how after you ended D1. If you're Town, I strongly recommend taking a step back and looking at things again. Because otherwise, this is not going to end well for either of us.
You're in full anti-spew mode and you know you won't be sheeped here.
I'm curious why you're applying anti-spew mode, he doesn't even really mention anyone other than T3 in that post. And I mean, you do need to explain why scum!Farren opens himself up to getting killed by T3 there, no?
I see you're assuming that T3 is therefore scum with Farren since it makes no sense from scum!Farren and town!T3. Okay then, I guess.
the salt stuff and farren not interacting with u doesnt mean much to me let me know if it is important i guess
Why do you think this? What is the reasoning you're using to conclude Farren did everything through a scum lense? You're not refuting his points you're basically just calling him a liar which is pointlessIn post 890, Ich Troje wrote:lmao please fuck off with that, you KNEW as soon as you voted enchant you were safe unless someone else came in and swapped off enchant, and posted with that assumption.- Morning Tweet

Damn where am I at
Uhhhh so like as I read later into the game my heart wants Esooa and redtea to be town pretty strongly. By heart i just mean sharing takes with them and really *feeling* it but i dont so much have a reason
My head says Ich/Farren are town for more classical reasons i guess.
and a mixture of both doesn't like T3 and Dann. I would condemn T3 to the fiery pits of hell in a heartbeat. Like literally even if he is town (Which im doubting but it's T3 i guess) i dont want him anywhere near judgment day LMAO
Flow I would probably defer to the whoever the flow professionals are i have 0 experience with him

Like them calling on people not to vote for me more and let timer run out while theyre the leading counterwagon - something subtle that is not directly saying "vote for me" but trying to keep themselves viable.
I directly said I wanted to stay in the game, actually. but yes I also didnt want that to be an invitation for ppl to hammer u -- I wanted to wait on Dann for instance- Morning Tweet

Yes while I agree with Dann that T3 has a baseline of being scummy I have townread him in the past, and correctly! Idk if that was luck or not but I have seen things in T3 that showed a hidden thought process, whereas in this game there is noneIn post 1035, Esooa wrote:I've played with t3 before and I didn't struggle to find them in any way at all.

Hmm as I recall your interactions with NSG and T3 ping me as odd. The post that got me the worst was the one about you suspecting ppl will scumread T3 if he's town so the mislim option is always open. That is exactly the kind of read I'd make as scum if I had an ulterior motive cause you could just as easily make an argument for the inverseIn post 1045, Dannflor wrote:cliff notes on why you scum read me?
NSG I thought you were being a little resistant towards, I think you were largely reaching when you called out that question of hers to Esooa as scummy. Maybe cause you want to keep NSG as paranoia possible scum all game
You also did this with flow at the beginning of the game where it felt like a stretch the amount of scumminess you were getting out of a post of his
And just added on I scumread T3 and he interacts with you unnecessarily at least twice which psyches me out. And you just so happen to be keeping him null because he has baseline scumminess.
That being said it's been almost a little too generous for T3 if he's your partner so not entirely certain. If he were town I'd be concerned abt u all over again because them you were have an open opportunity to attack ppl scumreading him- Morning Tweet

It's not *really* that people are saying "well look at these scummy posts by T3", though? At least, i dont feel like that's all ive/esooa've been saying\
I think flow's opening was bad too. I just interpreted lines like "I also thought a townie entering the game here would interact more with the people already posting, or even join the already built wagon." or "I felt like he was using the cutesy-memey responses to avoid having to take responsibility for actively avoiding the wagon.", as well as the bit about townies on average in RVS, it just seemed like taking it out of proportionIn post 964, Morning Tweet wrote:
Flow's early game does come across as odd to me, im not sure if i could have quantified it like this though.In post 134, Dannflor wrote:I was also immediately pinged by #26. It is averyodd comment to make two pages into the game when there are only two ostensibly RVS votes on northsidegal. This is compounded by the fact that Farren explained his vote clearly only a few votes before.
so, it seems like flow trap is both just posting an observation to post without actually thinking about the game on a deeper level. I also thought a townie entering the game here would interact more with the people already posting, or even join the already built wagon.
flow trap did neither so my observation in #13 was less tongue-in-cheek than might have been first interpreted. I didn't really scum read flow trap off of that, but that was my first reaction of, "huh that's a bit awkward." but then I tried to coax flow trap to join the wagon on NSG and they just refused for seemingly no real reason. I felt like he was using the cutesy-memey responses to avoid having to take responsibility foractivelyavoiding the wagon.
like i tend to think townies, especially in RVS, are on average more likely to swing their vote around and build wagons even for n/a reasons. I don't know flow trap and I'm probably not going to meta them anytime soon but I am still lacking a sense of why their approach to voting nsg was like oil on water
I don't think that overall really says anything about northsidegal's alignment, more just that flow trap seemed to be deliberately avoiding taking a bold stance (like being the third vote on a wagon could be seen as)
Posting observations just to post, mm, I guess maybe. I think your point that "I also thought a townie entering the game here would interact more with the people already posting, or even join the already built wagon." (which u mention a couple times) is a stretch, since early games can vary so wildly.
Hmm, haven't decided what i make of it overall. I think flow came across as weird but i think the additional points that he didnt interact the way "thought a townie would" are overkill
To be fair it's a pretty small point though since taking things out of proportion kinda just happens in RVS. I felt you did the same thing with NSG when you said you interpreted her question as "going for a gotcha", or when you said "i didnt take you for a rhetorical player" -- when all she did was ask a rhetorical question once. It seemed like a *bit* of a stretch to keep NSG as reasonably suspicious
That being said there are parts of ur play i also found impressive which im reminded of, like how you were keeping track of NSG's play as seeming RC-like then you engaged on her specifically to see if that were the case. You have towny posts too i guess the T3 interaction confbiases me more- Morning Tweet

The difference is whether or not im willing to constantly have takes versus keeping everyone mostly at "slight town" or "null". you can probably guess which one of those i do as scum constantly.
maybe it's the fact i'm informed on your alignment reading that game, but your coverage there seems a lot sloppier than your coverage here. More just throwing shit out and seeing what people make of it rather than having your own internal consistency/thought train, if that makes sense.
But yeah I agree in any case that's there's a pretty noticeable difference. another one is that I'm usually summing up rather than giving my own opinion on things, im scared to do that as scum for some reason because i forget opinions of town!me are super volatile.- Morning Tweet

HahahahahaIn post 1022, redtea wrote:MT #979
if im reading this right are you saying dann is dancing around t3 based on his post about people dancing around t3
It's just EXACTLY the kind of post i would make to justify keeping a scummy slot in contention but not directly suspect them. Cause you could easily just do the opposite and say "If T3 were town, I think scum would probably just townread/ignore him and let town murder him, then profit and win". I'd just use whichever one of those takes are more convenient to me -- it's a bit less likely id use them as town
I recall Ich being like "Esooa you're not making sense SMH go in the scumpile timeout and think about what you did"In post 1022, redtea wrote:MT #981
as to dann seeing more into nsg's post than there probably was- being ungenerous as it were- in my opinion, the ich/esooa blowup mirrors it. Ich was finding all kinds of shit in esooa that neither i nor anyone else (iirc) was seeing, or at least not anywhere near to the depth he was.
Is that something you've considered yet? Or do you have any strong thoughts about that interaction?
(add: i might go back and review ich/farren, similarly. Can you see why i don't want to heaven ich? lol)
i also recall Ich clinging to a metatell on Esooa that was making Esooa pretty annoyed
It came across to me like Ich was confirm biased and sort of taking everything Esooa says as scummy (Kinda like how they do to Farren as well) which is something i usually associate with Ich's play in general. With Dann it's a lot more subtle. I think it's similar in that it's ungenerous though yea- Morning Tweet

Yeah so with Ich it seems like they started with a conclusion "Farren must be scum" and just continously took anything Farren said (or Esooa) as proof.
With Dann it's more careful, it's taking something that could be scummy and giving it a lot of additional weight to make it appear like a whole case. It's something i do as scum to make ppl seem worse than they are -- just start with something and add a ton of reasons. I could point out the sentences exactly but i definitely had some of them quoted in my earlier posts abt this
Also with Ich it's a "This person is scum, see see see see" whereas with Dann it's like "I see all of these suspicious things about you, it's keeping me from townreading you (for NSG)" but NSG isn't like a tunnel of Dann's it's just a conflicted opinion that ppl could jump on NSG for or not and it doesnt require much of a commitment on Dann's part
I'm not terribly familiar with Dann's play to know if he does read very very deeply into one post and come up with additional reasons to make it look bad (Dann wrote relatively big posts on just flow's tiny bad post and NSG's question for Esooa) which is typically something i associate with scum justifying a SR- Morning Tweet

i dunno, we got T3 voting Farren (most likely elimination that might work), giving reads, going back and saying he made up the reasoning rather than not just outright saying he doesnt have reasoning, and some "scum!me doesn't do X" type stuff
I have never seen T3 completely make up reads. Have reads without elaboration, sure, but does town!T3 feel the need to make shit up..? Surely town!T3 doesn't give any fucks right?
And again it's just convenient his scumread happens to be Farren who gamestate-wise *could* be elimed if enough ppl sheeped Ich.
T3's best arguments for being town are that he would've sent me to Heaven if scum (???) and that he's more involved with discussion as scum. Oh and that he's lazy as town but not as scum??
Are you using ignoring redtea's posts as proof you're in your town meta?!?! So in other words, if you were scum, you would read their posts but since you're town you just skimmed and forgot about them?In post 1148, T3 wrote: Not true. Town!me is usually passive and blurts things out meanwhile scum!me actively engages with discussions. Also, town!me often will skim over walls andnot respond to them.
Is that your argument for you being town?- Morning Tweet

Do you think there's a reasonable chance Farren is scum?
Otherwise I'm fine throwing out T3 and if he's town and Ich judgements town!Farren that's like 2 bad plays by town back to back (the first being all of T3's play)
Like I'm fine just throwing T3 out, this'd be a new low if he's town and I trust Ich will make the best decision they can... even if it's just doing Farren again. As long as they take some time to think about it and don't insta Farren than it's whatever- Morning Tweet
