ok to be fair I did try to run them up earlier, its more klick's incredulous defense with little reasoning had me change tact.
Sure, but Klick is complaining about this, then refusing to acknowledge my responses to their case on me, then Hu Tao also complains about this but shuts you down immediately when you try to do the complete opposite.

I'm trying to figure out of this is real frustrated town or not.

I'm pretty sure you've accused me of doing this when I was town before. I think this is a go-to read of yours when you don't really like the case but it's not a very good way to catch scum imo
I don't necessarily think it means Gibdo is scum
But I do think it trends more towards scum behaviour than town
It also just generally annoys me

I think most people in this lobby are expecting 'case' and then being disappointed with 'vague lump of thoughts'

None of this actually says 'this makes Klick scum' and I don't think Gibdo believes in this as much as he wants to present something that looks competent

I feel like I laid out pretty clear-cut reasons why your posts would point to scum behavior. I was also reading your predecessor as mafia anyway, for reasons described pretty well in . Besides, if I were scum here, it would make far more sense for me to lurk more than I am at the present moment since I am already being townread by most of the players. I certainly wouldn't feel any particular need to prove myself now.
You are correct about the first part though. This is definitely a vote I want to make.

In post 1827, Gibdo wrote:First, putting Hu Tao in the "Town" category would be a very scary and hasty conclusion for a town-aligned player to reach, especially when you consider the following:
- Dannflor, as the only confirmed town, hard tunneling her in D1 and getting NK'd right after
- She was one of the five players to NOT vote awesomeming after a clear ball drop
- wouldn't give a decent player enough information at all to read Hu Tao as town, if there's more to your read here Klick then I need to see it.
All of this, extrapolated from 'Klick townreads Hu Tao and hasn't thoroughly explained it'

It's a nothingness and only serves to keep the status quo of myself and Hu Tao being under suspicion

None of the things you bring up here actually give reasons to... not townread Hu Tao. They're all surface reasons one might consider looking in her direction.
Second, after Klick replacing camelCasedSnivy (who was heavily scumread by most of us) and reading up on the game, I don't think a good enough case was presented for Thomith to match such a strong scumread on him. I'd have expected something far stronger than "this doesn't feel genuine" in .
I didn't post a case attempting to persuade people that Thomith is scum
Thirdly, the reads on ActionDan are inconsistent between and , especially for only being a couple hours apart. It gives the impression that town's favor is trying to be gained by agreeing with him while not actually acknowledging that ActionDan has been consistently making incredibly town-aligned posts.
I posted something that looked towny to me from ActionDan but didn't burn that into my overarching view of the game

Like the reason I'm saying I don't believe you really believe this is because it feels like you're getting to 'I don't understand this' and then stopping all thought and concluding I must be scum. There are absolutely questions you could ask to attempt to understand the things you instead choose to make assumptions about here.

This divide between those who trust Klick and those who don't is interesting.

Hu, are you scum reading Groggy for any reason besides them voting Klick?

No. I scum read them because they feel forced in their way of articulating. Doesn't seem natural.

Hmm, good point, it is just you. In my mind there were others when thinking about it.

Also, that sounds like a fake scum read you have there.......you gotta give an example.

I finished my reread of Thomith. I still think he's town. Most of his iso reads town to me.

I am that much more confident Klick is selectively trying to find weaknesses to be exploited. For example I know as town and I have a feeling as scum also Thomith will ask a billion questions. I don't really know what he gets out of every single one of them, but probability dictates some will look pointless and empty like the one to elements about ending the day faster.

The other relevant point is the vote switch from Hu to awesomeming. To add to it Thomith had previously townread awesomeming earlier (not mentioned by klick). I'm OK with it. Thomith had claimed he was lost and following your townreads onto a wagon like that is typical. Especially since Dann's progression was one where he had first voted Hu and then voted awesomeming.

I reject any other arguments. Thomith was not bullying Nick's read e.g. or Thomith was staying out of elemnts/RM slapfight
I'll give you a moment to let that sink in
