I don't mind Melody unvoting Drew, but if their goal was to generate meaningful pressure then they totally failed at that.

I don't really like the hydra dissonance explanation. You guys seem fairly coordinated as of late, so why weren't you coordinated back then? Especially something as important as vote placement.In post 694, Melody wrote:
We explained that with the hydra dissonance thing, did you not see Evening's post? Do you still think that's a valid reason, given our explanation?In post 685, Alduskkel wrote:The strangest part about this is that your vote on me was ineffective as pressure because it was removed before I even posted again. The whole point of pressuring someone is to see how they react.You also voted me before I responded to your question, when you specifically said I was "pending further evaluation."Are you deliberately leaving out these important details?
And the pending further evaluation thing means you're an unsure; I feel like you're putting too much weight on the vote for reasons I don't really get, plus the context makes sense as well since our current vote was on Drew who we started liking.

This is the only time Melody mentions scumreading you prior to and including the post where they vote you:In post 698, Cat Scratch Fever wrote:
I remember melody scumreading me at that point in the game. Why is it one over the otherIn post 691, Alduskkel wrote:Because in-context it was less "moving their vote to pressure another scumread" and more "moving their vote onto a new tasty wagon opportunity":
This isn't really a convincing case. Melody also didn't really try to get other people to vote you or further investigate your alignment by engaging with you -- it looks more like they just parked their vote on you.In post 136, Melody wrote:Dislike Cat's reaction to Fark's readslist. Obviously she's right on the point that the top 3 have no reason to be town, but the added on "Why did you feel the need to make a readslist?" feels like overkill. What are you hoping to accomplish asking that question? I see Cat's follow-up is that the readslist could be "scum trying to look busy". i disagree on the basis of suspecting people for early readslists >:x
~Evening
So if the growing wagon = your wagon, then you're suggesting the alternative was Melody parking their vote on me "by themselves" (actually Farkset was voting me as well). But how do they know whether or not the pressure is meaningful if they didn't even wait for me to post?In post 574, Cat Scratch Fever wrote:I'm also not feeling his reason for scumreading Melody. I feel like it's pretty normal to join a growing wagon and even a bit townie as stubbornly parking on a wagon by yourself won't generate any meaningful pressure.CLICK HERE FOR THE ALDUSKKEL APPRECIATION PAGE

To be honest this was one of the main reasons i changed my mind about melody at the time (for the worse)In post 691, Alduskkel wrote:Because in-context it was less "moving their vote to pressure another scumread" and more "moving their vote onto a new tasty wagon opportunity":I'm honestly shocked you don't have issues with this considering you were the one being wagoned.
Then i changed my mind again because of their readlist in 531 and Cat's contribution. Their reads are very similar to mine, with only a couple names difference. It may be worth it to quote and compare the two for future reference
Spoiler: readlists
I don't think i'm being pocketed and/or fooled around by both of them, and with me it makes 3 of us with very similar reads so i don't think i'm being stupid here, but the possibility of being very wrong is there. I decided to consolidate on you because if you flip red i will be happy with my grasp of the gamestate and keep going down that road; if you flip green those two must be lynched immediately (or at least one of them, then we can look elsewhere if it flips red). Would you disagree with this statement?

My concern about skitter is that she doesn't look or sound scummy at all in my opinion, but it appears that all of her scumreads (except an early one on almidia) are exactly the people voting aldus, i.e. {Melody, Farkset, Cat}. I'm not particularly sure there is a provable relationship, it might very well be a coincidence especially because she started voting some of these peoplebeforethe aldus wagon happened, but it seems that she used aldus as a mean to double down on them and then never moved on from that. I don't even disagree with skitter that if aldus flips town his wagon looks suspicious, but then again there's post 640 and no attempt to look for any partners in the world outside of aldus wagon, which makes me wonder how much she is actually invested in her reads and solve
As i said i wouldn't lynch skitter over that but i wouldn't let her reach lylo either if we are in trouble later.

I also disliked the clemency slot and iconeum hasn't done much to improve on that, the game isn't even that long and usually replacements go either A. hey guys i'll catchup and give my contribution; or B. hey guys i won't bother about catchup so i'll form reads while engaging in real time
And i have seen neither.

- i really dont understand why you're taking so much issue with my aldu read
- the reasons people are voting him are bad
- like half the game isnt playing and it's like mid day1, complaining that i'm not looking for partners yet seems unreasonable, and it feels like you're shading me by dinging me for this right now
- like saying 'i'm not sure how much she's actually invested in her reads and solve' feels like an unreasonable thing to say given the gamestate and given what my current reads are, especially since this largely seems to stem from me not looking for other partners, which is an utterly ridiculous thing to expect from me here
- half the game isnt playing and i'm easily one of the like top 3 active players, like what are you expecting from me here? I cant magic people into playing or engage with them if they arent
