i'm not townreading Mathblade btw, just so that's clear.

i just think that even if they're scum we can either make them bus or catch their buddies off of their interactions so there's not much to lose by treating them as town for now.

plum overdefending against her party time opening didn't read great
voting mathblade wasn't amazing, it also came after RC voted Math so it feels like plum didn't feel safe voting for Math by herself?
making and using that as a scumread for Math is yuck
also unvoted after RC makes me feel like Plum is trying to get in the shade, because the sun is burning hot like in aussie right now
is just an evacuation of the current gamestate which just says 'ok time to fuck off of my slot here guys', which is fine but I don't think an actual scumread on Math goes away from that post alone
did you read my posts

because

like you've missed reading the one post where I explained what was and wasn't a scumread on MathBlade from me

this is a surprisingly fun game. not sure why. it's kind of fun playing the slow game and not being immediately scumread for it? i'm kinda surprised no one's calling me scum?

i'm really confused because my slow i meant completely devoid of intensity? I feel like there's been virtually no, like, force behind anything that I've done and that's what I meant by slow moreso

on a scale of duckling to dragon, how sure are you about your mathblade meta read?

MathBlade was opaque and null to me due to playstyle, but frustrating because of it too. RC supposedly having a strong scumread on him - in a meta context, no less - was enough for me to say, hey, maybe RC is right, and/or if I vote MathBlade here and pressure with a second vote and willingness to take RC's strong read seriously, MathBlade will react in a way I find more readable than his current work

which was a more productive direction than anything I had until that point

If I meld with Teacher early it's a good indication we share alignment. If I had a fake profile it would be named Teacher. Will explain when the read is stronger/ I test him.

but you unvoted shortly after, again following RC
Did you learn anything about Math? You thought he was scum, and that changed?

survivalism doesn't make sense as an accusation given that it's really early and no one's actually under fire

In post 190, Plum wrote:though I'm still a little 'eh' on the idea that commenting on or responding to my vote on him, or pursuing his read on me further after that vote instead of shifting to multiple other foci would be "antitown". Could look scummy or draw extra attention to his wagon. But that's really all I can say about how he responded to a vote from his top suspect

Then who are you supposing I am scum with? Your vote is on me.

What are you doing to find my nonexistent buddies?
Gross. Why does Tris need to solve the rest of the game to pursue a scum read? Instead of, y'know, sorting that scumread.

I'm semi undecided. But I think you should think Skitter is scum from the awkward scumhunting and way she was trying to get on your good side specifically. Within the first few pages anyway, dunno if the time has shifted since.
