i guess ausuka *could* be scum if she's good at playing as scum. there's some ambiguity around the trajectory of her relative ranking of snow/robert over this game that looks worth investigating. and she's actually been a rather passive force in this game despite some appearances to the contrary. but eh — she certainly has an indefeasible excuse for it.

probably wrong to focus on as ausuka's problem her relative rankings of robert/snow. after second look, more off is how snow in particular:
- was highlighted as "probably town" with me and deus in 171
- for reasons as weak as those listed in 173
- but sat in the middle of her reads list below robert for most of the time thereafter

snow was always the odd one out in that group imo

I do not like the pivot in answering my question from "using a lot of words to say not much" to "the motivation for attacking votes on them"

I just struggle to believe this push in general, i find Naerys and Klick's approach of just saying "yeah we do not want to play a game with this person" to be more natural and real
this post still good though, even if it turned out to be wrong

have you played with cakez before?

@sircakez I'm trying to parse the above post as well why aren't they just town what screams trying hard to play town to you?
That was a while ago but it was a tonal thing, Gypyx posts felt forced to me
This is also just why I voted Gypyx

Okay! Hope any info prs are aware.

In the meantime, I think the only way we achieve confidence about aureal-town is through poe, or if she goes out of her way to lead a wagon that flips scum of course.

I'm not really sure tbh. I was suspicious of robert I haven't really been paying much attention to t3 after reading gypyx iso I felt it was kinda meh. I think if they are wanting to push town snow hard and they're scum it would be an antipair. although I can't understand the dissonance of gypyx liking where snow's head is at but also claiming snow is confused about where his head is at. ausuka I guess has been kinda silent. what's your read on ausuka? I think robert and gypyx have a high likelihood of hitting scum.

gypx building a towncase for snow would be an odd strategy from scum but is possible-ish
robert seems an easier bet but maybe this replacement will shake up my reads again

I didn't really feel strongly about the snow town read and I definitely thought he fell off after that

I have definitely been passive, mostly just been busy and also unfortunately do not enjoy playing this game rn sorry.

actually it's PC who i'm getting my eye on right now (as well as robert but this read is getting a bit stale)

PC seems very complaceant and happy to keep the game in it's state of semi-stagnation, the insistance on Psyche and the cakez post for instance really feels like willingly going down a dead end
Where exactly is Snow's head at to you
well that's exactly the thing, i think snow himself is kinda confused on where his head's at ? in a town way ofc
I don't really think I see this tbh looking at Snow's posts? Like the closest thing to making me think that is the "are there two scums in this game" post which to me does feel like something scum could say pretty easily.

I want to do a more in depth response and stuff but it's really late here sooooo I'll do it tomorrow morning

there's also this weird thing where it expresses a townread on Layla, when this slot is like, dead

it's a clear improvement. and i think i'd try to develop a take on how town even revealed slots look over the course of a re-read since it would inform how i read other slots interacting with / commenting on her. i remember similarly thinking about klick's posts w/ my actual knowledge at arms length.
