When mena waits to see everyone's opinions before making what looks like a vanity vote.
When emps is still voting the mod and said pretty much nothing to make his slot more readable or progress the game.

Mena, I don't really understand. If anything, him gauging the general vibe of the players and then still deciding to vote on me is brave, and something I don't see scum players doing very often. Is the reasoning bad? Yeah, it's pretty weak. But I think Mena would be self-aware enough as scum to know that this is a bad move for him if he is that alignment.
The reasoning being bad is precisely why I think it looks like a vanity vote. Weak reasoning, going against the grain as far as how most people are reading you. Awkwardly confident. Feels like a vanity vote.

eh. I kinda like mena's responses to 344 although it's not out of his scum range. I guess it seems like a genuine enough vote.
Idk if I used the term correctly but basically I thought he made the vote for looks without any real intention of it being wagoned/lynched. So yeah, it's scummy in the sense that I thought he was voting in a way that was conscious of his own image rather than to get something done.
I loosely read along in this game while it was going on, where Uncrowned was scum. I felt that his play here resembled his play there. So I read his ISO from that game a few hours ago and I see some differences that actually make me want to TR him. He seems a lot less focused on overly wordy posts about himself like he appeared to there, and seems to be putting more focusing into genuinely solving/forming reads here. I don't necessarily agree with much that he's said here so far, but it seems like it comes from a genuine place.

I'm keeping this until he actually starts playing and makes a real vote. Emps is runner up as far as my vote is concerned. Haven't talked to Y in awhile though so this may change when that changes.

I mean I’m not scum but also that’s bad logic and really doesn’t help you that much because it consistently leaves you vulnerable to scum who don’t go for the lhf
And yeah it does leave me vulnerable but I don't think in this circumstance it was scummy. You had spoken to pretty much every slot and gathered a general feel for the thread from what I saw, and then still decided to go with me. I don't think scum goes to that length
Mostly I was sceptical that you would be able to produce relatively nuanced posts as quickly as you did in response to me last night if you were scum but you seem capable of that
And yeah, I understand the paranoia. Tbh I've been trying to change up my meta slightly between all my games but it's kind of exhausting. I think this game is a decent representation of my natural posting style.
I'm still trying to find a balance between aggression/analysis that provides the best results. I find when I lean too hard into one or the other my reads become ass cheeks
It doesn't feel like a townie ISO. Most posts are fluff or irrelevant to the game. There's a couple questions/read based stuff here and there but it's too far and few between for me to think it's town at the moment.
I will straight up disregard all reason if you have a PR dream again. You can come back and be like, “I dreamt that Locke is a N2 Bulletproof Multitasking Cop and Self-Targeting Doctor,” and I will go, “Okay, Locke kill it is then.”
