@flubber- i would like clarification of that as well. could you please just explain? are you saying you think bert is scum?
I'm not sure Flubber ever mentioned a read on Bert or even alluded to it yet?

Has he given you reasons yet?

and actually i guess i lied. i think flubber is scum, and i cant read bert, but whether bert is scum or town doesn't matter to me since he'd be going with flubber.
Why do you think Flubber's scum?

p-edit. k
UNVOTE:
dont leave yet. i dont mind talking things out a bit more. if you are town your reads will be important - you've always been surprisingly... amazing. but flubber dies eventually k
Why the unvote here? Like at the very least you could keep it on as pressure.

bpc/ceph: ceph is a strong townread right now. bpc, not so much. bert pointed out that the ladies' motivation is to stay in the dance, but the gentleman's isn't. which made me start thinking about what the gentlemen's motivations actually are - for scum, that'd be to pair optimally. the moment ceph gave bpc an out, he took it, before pine ever even posted. and then on pressure, he backpedalled. between flubber/bpc, equal scumreads, which also kind of reinforces the fact that flubber is sniping at ceph without actually voting him.
This is ignoring a lot though. From the start I wanted to pair with Ceph because I know I can work with him. I tend to get lost in games, especially with some bigger personalities like anti/mollie/you and he can help me sort through that. Past that, I think I would have a decent chance at a good read in private with him, and with a town read we could basically treat it as a hydra which we've wanted to do like as an actual thing for a while now. But this all begs the question that if you have scum reads on both Flubb and I, why do you wanna leave? or at least why did you want to leave when you had zero read on Flames?

Well, there was the whole mollie directly telling him to do that thing.
I'll let him explain other stuff if he wants but I know that there's a bit more to it than that.
I wanted to fuck around for the pre-dance but shit went fast and got heavy yo. Ceph's reaction after I put the bolded accept Pine's thing when he asks just felt like townceph to me. He instantly went to trying to not make me feel bad about choosing someone else, where I think a scumceph might be a bit more pissy about it. A big factor was other people's reactions to his posts as well. The main reason for not choosing Ceph was that he would end up be a distraction the next day with Anti coming at him, but with mollie pushing me to actually just go with the thing I want, I figured Anti would be able to calm down on tunnelling and there wouldn't be the whole distraction the next day. Also, I was just fucking relieved I could actually work with Ceph and have an early townread on him.
