Like i'm kinda missing the connection between 'town-driven cw' and 'town indicative for jv'
Yeah that's all confusing me as well

So you're reading me as town because you read hoopla as scum? Isn't that generally a bad way to read people?

This might be a silly question, but if you're so convinced hoopla is scum that you're townreading jv off of apparently anti-partner-y associatives ... why are voting penguin again?

Also i think you're townreads of lilith and peta are unfounded
Yeah I like skitter even more and I'm slowly moving to scum!golden

There were people saying that the lilith wagon had formed because she had first pick in the draft.
I explained my vote relative to that assumption.
Not sure whether PP was saying there's nothing wrong with voting people for pagetopping, or if there's nothing wrong with pagetopping.
Enigmatic, but I give a small number of weak town points for it. More specifically for not saying my post is scummy since I lobbed it out there as a tool to gather exactly that kind of response.

It's concerning because while you're posting well, I feel like that's something good scum players are more capable of doing than developing natural reads.

While it fits your playstyle, it still leaves me paranoid is all.

As for Lilith, how do you think she'd approach this situation if she were scum?

I mean, it's not exactly hard to generate reads as scum. Natural reads, maybe, but like it's also hard to generate natural reads as town.

That was just a convoluted way of saying that forming good reads is hard.

Hmm? His response to that was along the lines of "This is interesting, I wonder what to think. Slightly scummy."
The fact that he called it out at all feels like not-SS to me. It also reminded me of this post:

Honestly, I think the number of people who immediately popped in to express their dislike for the wagon is much more notable.
in which he avoids interacting with the wagon, similarly to how he avoided commenting on the JV wagon here.
S_S said this is a general feature of his playstyle though (in regards to being hesitant with votes), has he done this as town as well?

In a vacuum I would say an unwillingness to get involved in wagons/voting is scummy but if it's a consistency across his play than I don't know how much I can take from it.
