I think the evidence presented recently might be a sign she’s scum with tw, between her not really engaging there and tw dodging giving any thoughts on Ythan
:o. Wow, still haven’t decided who to vote yet but whatever Ythan is here, I think this probably makes you town for that vote.

We just need to tread carefully because if you slip up around her as scum she notices and will tear your spine out and slap you to death with it. (I'm slightly scared of Nancy)

So Aisa VS Ythan - You're saying Ythan over Aisa?

I can honestly see a reason for both, and you make a dang good point.

In post 960, furtiveglance wrote:I'd love any responses to either or .
i think you making this effort is +town for you especially how you've asked for responses and the whole emoji thing with cephrir

i agree with cephy tho that RVS vote is not really an anti-associative

i agree that nancy and meg don't appear to be partnered

i feel the town reads meg was doing was trying to emulate her town game so i'm not sure if it means anything wrt to whom she townread (me, mastina)

i agree with a lot about the big post with the purple, tw could be a partner, etc. i don't know if i'm as convinced by some of it though, i guess it's possible she proposed a aisa/you scumteam because she's trying to get to you but it's also possible she was playing off paranoia on both slots even if they are both town
In post 898, furtiveglance wrote:Aisa asks Yume whether mastina has been plotting against Meg in the hood - prior to this mastina had called Meg scum in her ridiculously early reads. I think this needs explaining by Aisa.
i think this is a weird thing to do if aisa is partnered with meg tbh seems kind of blatant

you don't actually have much solid on aisa and i guess i'm not caffinated to understand your bottom point

as far as gamma the /s is not a defense of meg and it's something gamma does as a playstyle thing i don't think it's alignment indicative in any way

i don't really see the gamma case

i've already commented on ythan + meg

StD could you elaborate on your furtive scumread?
Based on? Where is Ythan pocketing Gamma?

Gamma: I see no evidence I’m being pocketed by Ythan.

Mega: sounds like you’re being pocketed by her. Dafuq? :lol:
“/s” means it was sarcasm
1) I said this before, but this is an indirect defence of Meg.

Why these two?
I think Meg is everyone's biggest scumread for a reason, they haven't given as much content as everyone else except for maybe Yume.

GE feels a bit strategic in terms of the reads they've given out, like (initially) scumreading me and subtly defending Meg by explaining that one of their posts was sarcastic

I was clarifying Meg's posts for Nancy
1) GE expresses frustration at the point I made, despite it being more or less true - clarifying Meg's remark in this case makes it make sense, and therefore counters Nancy's defensive/agressive post towards Meg.

So it was Mega who you thought was skirting around having a read on you then?
I'd say she's skirting around multiple slots but I meant you
2) GE accuses Meg of skirting around reading players. This interests me because there is no town motivation for doing this - GE is basically saying Meg is scum, but in a very casual way. I'd consider this associative.

In post 460, Gamma Emerald wrote:I posted a list in my team thread earlier so I'm building from that

townreads

cephrir: this read has gotten stronger since I first said I TR him, I like his drive that he's showing so far.
yume: I think her mastina sus was genuine and she just feels natural rn
fenrir: clearly motivated to solve I think
ythan: hood interactions are clean and she's been solid in thread too

townleans

nancy: I was concerned about the lack of read on me but I think she's towny in how she responded to that.
furtive: I've actually liked his engagement with me. He's also effectively addressed some of my concerns about him.

nulls

the worst: will figure him out eventually, no clue rn. Anyone who bothers me about accelerating this will end up on my naughty list.
aisa: I felt she was towny early but I honestly don't have a strong impression of her posting

scumleans

mastina: this is a weird crackpot read, but I don't think her read me makes sense on a couple levels. Calling me town so early seems premature, and I also think her early reads on me trend towards the opposite of my actual alignment when she's town (yes I could be scum and mastina could be town and this would be accurate but w/e).
flea: I get a bit of a bad vibe from the constant clashing with aisa + furtive while not actually meaning to put pressure there

scumreads

meg: don't care for her handling of yume/nancy and it feels a bit like she's trying to lurk out

If I wanted to tinfoil an associative, I could see flea as scum with aisa or furtive based on the clashing without pushing, it registers as potential theater.
3) Meg is the only scumread on GE's list, yet her final comment is about 3 other users, 'tinfoiling' Flea (scumlean) with a townlean and a null. This reminds me of my scumplay when I have a buddy as a scumread but am louder about a town that I 'scumread'. I'd consider this 'associative'.

In post 553, Gamma Emerald wrote:Why are you okay with your team being challenged, Meg?
Also did you read the rest of the game or are you interacting in real time for now?
4) This could be inviting a partner to post/cueing them in in a way.

In post 578, Gamma Emerald wrote:VOTE: MegAzumarill
Since there’s already 3 tw votes I’ll do this instead
I'm still not sure how to read this because TW hasn't flipped yet.
put numbers by what I wanted to address
  1. No it's really not. It's clarifying something that was obviously misunderstood. I got mad about it because I just generally see people do a lot of lazy interpretation of my posts and I'd prefer it to fucking stop. This is where it happened before, and it was honestly stupider there. Getting accused of defending someone because of saying "I don't like their playstyle", while ALSO voting that person, is like, actively choosing to put out the most nonsense take. SO my patience for that sort of thing is very low!
  2. It was casual because I was more focused on talking with Nancy than looking at Meg.
  3. I put that out because I wanted to make it apparent that just because players were listed in one place in the post did not mean I wasn't considering them for scum.
  4. Feel like there could have been better ways to do this. I specifically noted I had a thought Meg could be town for that post in the hood. I could have attempted to use that if I wanted to try and help Meg out.

furative and gamma are kinda off the table i think (mastina might disagree about furative) so it's kinda a battle between aisa who people have been scumreading and ythan who's done pretty much nothing all game

is any of them your partner?
