I'll give some advice to the scum team.

Shireen Baratheon is exactly the kind of person you'd want to night kill! She's unpredictable and by leaving her alive you leave her vote to ~random chance unless you specifically manipulate her, which town can see through. "Reasonable" players can be manipulated on logical grounds, but wildcards like her will always be risky. And since I townread her, I won't be lynching her anytime soon.

You're welcome!

What causes the discomfort - could you be more specific here?
I don't see a reason to really vote you but I don't see much reason to defend you besides the simple fact I just gave.
So... On a scale of 1 to 10, how scared were you that I was gonna die?

You say unexplained stances when I didn't even post after? Dulley noted. I don't think Prokens is scum though considering Votato likely is and those interactions aren't SvS.

The simple fact being that you're not comfortable with it...?
Focus is more on "generic" with lack of explanation (which could have been in the same timeframe) auxiliary.

Lack of explanation isn't a scum tell though? That boils down to simple motivation of the player. And unless you know the person enjoys town more than scum then it's a moot point entirely.

Unless you can go into better detail or explain I'd be fine with your death. Although I still think Votato fits the bill more than you.

But that's not my main gripe, no? It's that the particular stances you took looked unoriginal and scummy. If you had explained them, maybe I'd feel better about them - it's not the lack of explanation by itself that's scummy.

Pardon me for not having 'original' reads in a mostly bland game so I'm sheeping someone who has confidence. (Once again you are listing more things that aren't scummy so this conversation seems like a waste of my time)

Thankfully this isn't a game I care too terribly for compared to others so feel free to keep your vote on. I'm going back to pokemon!

Whose confident read are you sheeping?

Why does anyone ever do this?

and you are a site mod no less....
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I'm sorry but you're the only voter on Votato and I'm asking about reads in general anyway? I don't see the answer in your ISO of 9 posts.

I also don't see the reason for the discomfort. Perhaps "we have 5 days" could be what you're aiming at but I don't see that as a reason for discomfort.

So, please - treat me as the dumb person that I am with regards to questions :D Good night!
