OH NOES, I made it look like I had positive vibes on ygritte.
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 wasn't really asking that either. I asked you what she was doing besides fluff posting.

was kinda calling KMD scum but when she posted a list he was no longer a scum read.

is idk. TMI on Pork maybe?

idk what is.

like you are claiming that you are answering a question that I actually didn't ask. I asked what "other things" she was doing and posting 3 of her posts and leaving things ambiguous doesn't really answer my question, IMO.
Okay but
You realize I answered the whole question exactly as written right? (1) this is why I townread her, (2) you were right there wasn’t much more than fluff so I adjusted my read.

What do you think of my current reason for calling her town?
Do you disagree? If so, how do you think those posts make sense from scum?

^ my read on Nero when he was asking me about Ygritte

Wow shocking that I would be willing to listen to a townread and reevaluate a read based on their input

that's what's throwing me off. B/c you are now saying that you FIRST read her off of RVS. So wouldn't your RVS read be the original one? IDK, its weird to me that if you believed that you were responding to a question about why you tow read ygritte you wouldn't lead with "I liked her RVS stuff
AND
..."
The events you’re talking about are separated by less than 12 hours.

That seems like an accurate summary of events.

I think Ygritte might be town for the questions about her role, because it seems like a scum CO would benefit from being able to use Investigate Escape Routes secretly - and trying to coordinate her actions with town would make it harder to do that.

So I suppose if you are scum that would mean you successfully got me to second guess myself on a correct townread. However I’m currently doing a meta dive on you that Auro asked for so I’ll see what I think after that.

What do you think of those posts from Ygritte?

You can't accuse of it being sketch without explaining why. You're just asking me to give my thoughts on a plate to try to get your wagon disbanded.

Go for it, I haven't read that much so I'm up to changing my mind.

Well, you're the only unexplained vote on the wagon.

Nero has made his reason for voting me clear enough, even if I think it's dumb. The votes from Ygritte and Porkens seem to be reacting to his case, and both have previously implied they think I'm suspicious.

AFAICT your vote is just leftover from your initial reaction to my interaction with Auro and LQ before you started catching up? You haven't reacted to anything Nero or I have said on the last few pages, you're just sort of hanging on there, egging the wagon on...

Fixing it and you got it. So there is reasoning behind it, but it's not good enough because I haven't caught up. Good summary

I thought you had caught up now?

But yes, it seems a little weird to not be reacting to anything that's happening and just egging things on instead. I also responded to several of your posts and you just ignored everything..

Really? Sorry haven't seen your responses, I'll look into them. I haven't caught up, I said I would do it on friday 'cause I'm loaded with work. I'm working right now (11 pm yay) and I've skimmed through new posts

OK.

It's a little irritating to have someone gleefully egging on a lynch wagon against me when they haven't even read my posts. Even if you're not caught up, you're presumably around enough to have an opinion about what Nero Cain is saying, if you're willing to go along with it so easily.
