Ok; I asked this once and got ignored, but I'll ask again: Say Allo flips town. This is a progression by your standards. Now who does this point to?
Can you cite posts from the "confused" game implying your confusion stemmed from a lack of ability to read the game, rather than people behaving weirdly?
If allo flips town I'll think about this game in the night and reread the thread, that's what I always do. That's also how I caught Titus in the game we played together: we lynched a slot, we had a flip, I reread the game, I thought to myself Titus was the best cop shot, and she was scum. I do this every game.
Also I'm not sure what you're referring to with that second question, and I certainly don't have an ace memory to remember every single thing I posted in every single game, but I have a lot of phases in games where I just skip a lot of posts and I'm not even ashamed to admit it. I do it every single game, big last game I remember doing this in is team mafia, I just skimmed through like 7 pages of thread at some points.

I don't see how the two are incompatible?
Say you see two people discuss about matter that both town and scum could discuss and it doesn't point towards anything. That doesn't help, at least it doesn't do so immediately. So if that happens for a while, it's just posts that serve no purpose in
IMMEDIATE
scumhunting, which stems in my confusion especially since a few slots just seem to lurk away this gamestate. D
