I kinda found your reaction to my declared townlean a bit towny as well, gut.

I wish I had trusted my gut last game. Like I had scum!Ducky nailed dead to rights, then he suddenly pocketed me, and I forgot all about it.

About the context thing, I mean using it as a direct address ("the case lacked venom", or "the push lacked venom"), independent of whether the case was on you or not. In Excalibur, you called my TvT venomless.
I'll do a deeper study into it later since I'm off my computer.

I'm trying a different style this game and seeing where my gut can lead me, not just cold hard logic.
Let's see where it goes.

You two just completely misunderstand each other. Seriously.
But this thread isn’t the place to discuss that.

Yeah, let's keep this thread... Venomless, amirite?

I rely on gut, logic, tone, mechanics, VCA and of course meta, in combination to try to form the most accurate reads.
But it’s not easy when you suggest to someone that they replace out if they lack the time to make decent reads, then you get called “rude” for that. That slot fipped scum.

Sa'll good, Jimothy, this game will serve as proof I can use the phrase in direct address as town.

The only real venom - maybe - was in that U2 video I posted.

So if you don't scumread Taly, Mephisto, who do you suspect?
Who do you think needs more focus put on them and how are you/do you plan to do that?

Oh sorry. In the last game on D1, tw kept insisting he put me as a scumlean, while saying that he didn’t have the time to sort me properly, so I suggested he replace out in that case and another player called me “rude” for it and as we all know, Ducky flipped scum.

I mean, it is rude to tell other people to replace out, I feel.
I really hate replace-outs. They compromise game integrity.

Not when they deserve it imo. If you’re actively pushing wagons in a game, you had better have the time to properly sort those wagons you’re pushing. I truly adore tw but I stand by what I said in that game. If you’re not too involved in a game, that’s entirely different.

Game integrity is also compromised by shitty reads, so there’s that too,

I posted them in our hydra thread and FL said he pretty much agreed so here
As of p11
1.Shoshin the worst (the worst + Shoshin hydra) - could go either way - I feel like TW has lurked it out because he knows he could get speed lynched haha
2.Mephistophanes 39 (Nancy Drew 39 and Aristophanes hydra) - prob town
3.Varsoon - prob town
4.Almost Chara (Almost50 + Chara Hydra) - dunno yet
5.Michael Scott (Auro + Volxen Hydra) - dunno yet
6.Kokichi Oma - dunno yet
7.Tibor and Lumia (brassherald and Gamma Emerald hydra) - prob town
8.nicorobin - would lynch
9.Mewtaph - dunno yet
10.alchemist21- dunno yet
11.ProFlavor (Flavor Leaf and profii hydra) - hallelujah
12.u r a person 2 - would lynch
13.pinturicchio - dunno yet
14.Taly - probably town
On reflection of Nico - I played a game with Nico and everyone made a meta comment about her lurking - so obviously she is lurking but the reason I put “would lynch” rather than dunno yet is that the 2nd post was like someone dragged her into the game - ie - setting up an excuse to not bother posting
But then I think the lurk meta might have been Town indicative and I can’t remember (someone confirm???)
I’ll read the last few pages
I’ve never hydra’d before - I’m not sure how much I’m supposed to post or confer in private

Flesh out the difference between your scumread of Nico and U2’s scumread of Pint. They seem the same to me because you’re both pushing someone for not posting.

No, I’m not suspicious of Nico for lurking, she does that a lot as town, especially on D1. It’s what she said, that is making me suspicious. That’s why I want to get her answer to my question.

well my vote is because pintu is one of the few players here I have experience with, so I want to sort him, but I need him to play.
The "push" is a response to stw's questions which I wanted to give a full faith effort for them because they are some of the few players that have experience with me and I want to give them the best opportunity to find town!me.
my town leans right now are
STW -tone,play I think TW is trying to use his experience modding and playing with me to read me and that's why he's asking me for my thoughts about specific posts.
varsoon - sheeping taly
almost chara - town by play, thought process behind lynch pool
tibor and lumia i like the thought in gemma's play and brass i think sounds town, this is pretty light even for this list
taly - natural progression from his initial gambit to current play.
Let's take the leap of faith that these are correct. If there was scum on stw's wagon, i'd look first at pin, proflavor and alch
still like the pin vote

URAP2's post above looks manufactured.
Current scumleans include FlavorPro, Varsoon and URAP2.

Nicos 2nd post came across like “ugh fine I’ll play if I must” - like a setup for later so she can be like “I’m lurking because I told you I’m already not really engaged in this game” (it’s a weak read on one sentence tbh)
U R is more like “I’m don’t see pint doing anything so I’ll just apply pressure” - I note his point that he knows Pint and wants to sort that slot - but I’m sure U r knows how to play the game in general so there are plenty of other dudes to sort - sticking on a read that basically consists of “he’s not doing anything” makes me think he wants to line up the rest of his reads to “fit in” with town - you can’t do that whilst (up to page 11 which I’ve read properly) most of the game has been about STW because you don’t know who is going to obvtown or scum it up
So I feel like U r is biding his time on an easy read
