Both of my scumreads are serious yes. Don't push me though I'll probably cry
when pressed about them plays emotional, if they got emotional on response to actual pressure it would less scummy but wielding an emotional breakdown as a weapon like this is not really a town thing to do

Why is Gentleman 4 commenting on something like this instead of finding the wolves! See what I did there?
deflects pressure by making it seem unfounded and acting like G4 is the "crazy" person
this is when I started thinking about G9/L1 being the scumteam, it's a very compelling idea to just go "person a is suspect but I townread person b they're paired with so I won't consider it early"
honestly that mindset might have been afflicting a lot of people early but it seems weaponized here
tbh the G9/L1 pairing probably has a combined playstyle of "weaponize generally-towny things to further our win condition" which while admirable for the idea, I feel like comes off as super-obvious at least how I've seen it happen
so I'm not sure if I should be considering that a point against them

I think if a wolf got townread early because of a strong entrance, the other wolves would also probably join in on the consensus of townreading their wolf buddy.
Disagree because all wolves are scared little cry babies who don't want to look bad on their partner flipping.
Come at me you wolves
huh, what did I call out L1 for initially? Damage control. Nice job pointing out the exact thing you look like you are doing

reeks of artificial confidence
sure town can also pretend they're more sure of themselves than they are but L1 seems very focused on suggesting a small pool of players are scum early
seems more like scum making a narrative (I'm not exactly sure what I'm looking for terminology-wise but if I attempt to get it perfect I'll be here all day) than cocksure town

putting on airs of being a paranoid townie distrusting townreads of them
probably exemplified in this post that came before it
why is she saying stuff like "the townie people" in reference to yourself, if you're also considering your own play not townread-worthy? I think L6 had a real point here.
plus she barely did much in that timespan so why does she say this now? I'm guessing she wanted to act up for a little bit and then needed to make it not look too off when she didn't keep it up

Gent 1/2 can do the skimmy out of here Gent 5/4/9 are fine no real read on the others
I don't think L1 has really progressed on any reads at all at this point past initial formation
I'm open to L1 explaining the why of this but until then I'm feeling like it's rather contrived

lol alright.
I mean you didn't agree with my counter argument you didn't go against it.
Either I believe my argument holds up and am setting myself for the future but I am also saying G1 as scum would want to pair up with me.
Or I don't think my argument holds up in which case I am not setting up lynches either.
Unless you think I am pushing lynches without really caring if people like my reasoning or not? Which feels like a bad way to push something through even as scum.
It's you who didn't talk about my argument all you really did was say how you're not setting yourself up for lategame and at that point I can see/let go. But that wasn't the crux of my argument that you haven't proven false. I also openly said one of the main things I need to see depends on later in the game so you saying 'it doesn't make sense' isn't even close to the case.
Having options and setting up lynches is 2 entirely different things as well.
I think pushing someone because you're not seeing something that you only really expect to see later in the game comes off as rather irresponsible. That would something rather hard to counterpoint and L1 is seeming to be rather immovable on the point so it ends up looking like a point designed to be without counter.
I think this is why L1 was playing damage control, looking at this in detail now
In post 990, Lady 1 wrote:Yes townread me more you fools. I cannot wait to win this game as a wolf.
how many posts has L1 made saying something to this effect at this point? It's coming off as rather disingenuous.

To some degree maybe?
Which one in particular do you think we should leave out. I'd have to analyze both to figure it out.
Depends on if Gent 7 is going to stick with his gimmick or not because on a town Gent 2 flip I would probably suspect Gent 4 a lot more. But if Gent 7 is gonna just do this all game we can leave him alone even though I'm pretty confident on him being town
yeah I really can't see the logic for L1 turning her initial bottom tier read on G7 into a post like this off of anything G7 did
In post 1712, Lady 1 wrote: In post 1707, Gentleman 3 wrote:I feel as though you've got something backwards here. You're not interested in my thoughts because if I'm scum they're prefabricated; very well, but if I'm scum then all of my thoughts are fabricated regardless. If I am town, they are quite real. So as I was trying to get at earlier, what is the specific reason to believe the scum case over the town case?
Moreover, I feel as though you ignored my second point there. Even if one granted I was scum and that my reads were set before I replaced in, the things that I wrote about them were not set before I replaced in, and it is the things written about reads that are relevant to one's alignment far more than the reads themselves. With that in mind, would you not agree that even if one granted that my reads were prefabricated, that the posts I made would still be just as alignment-indicative?
Hi, Lady 1 here what's up? You don't mind if I just step in for a second do ya? I think you're the one missing a key factor here, maybe both of you. Let's assume you had thoughts before replacing in. Now, I don't agree that this is a good line to go down but since we're going down it already let's entertain the thought. The key point is, if you had thoughts before replacing in regardless of what role pm you got they're going to come from a townie outlook because you don't make reads specing as scum you make them as town.
So in theory, no you couldn't really gather much off those posts. I think this is a really bad angle to go down, and I probably wouldn't have said anything if you weren't trying to put focus on the statement itself.
in the interest of fairness I have to give props to this post, I agree that thoughts formed before replacing into the game would seem townier, mostly because anyone not in the game has no information about who scum or town actually is. It's why I find it hard to scumside as an uninformed spectator, it's hard to root for someone you don't know the identity of

This refers to the insistence on pairing with L6 right
How is that a not-scum gimmick? Like, wut *visible confusion*
I apologize for thinking G7 would put in effort into the game and not be useless as scum.
Clearly I should be executed for such assumptions
That’s probably a smaller portion of the “damage control” portion of your ISO
Also can someone answer my question about whether callbacks to the last anonymous dance are common?
I have nothing to damage control. Did I think Gent 7 was town? Yeah and I knew when I saw the flip I was gonna get pushed but that doesn't mean my points are false.
No one was gonna go to end game with Gent 7 he wasn't trying. So in my mind scum are more likely going to bus him then defend him. If you think that's false than prove me wrong. But you just saying I look bad because I defended the not trying scum isn't really a point.
now that I have better context, let's reframe this. You executed an inexplicable read reversal on G7, and when G7 flipped you probably realized that wasn't the best move and tried to cover your tracks. G2 and G7 were on essentially equal footing for probably most of the players so I think you expected your townread of G7 to maybe catch L4's attention to the point they'd either buy it or you could hash up some explanation to convince them

Who do you think I'm gonna vouch for to stay? The guy at the bottom of my list or the one above it who I thought was getting townier? And if you read the rest of my iso you'll see I was pushing for G4 to leave cause I found both G2/G7 townie
okay so what was the post with everyone's shorthand names then
if it wasn't a readlist I have no idea what it could have been
honestly where the hell did this come from? For all of pre-dance L1 had this unwavering hate boner for my slot and L7 and then this post comes along
the reasons I saw later also don't particularly impress me, it's a bit of puffing herself up while putting me down

What about we wagon G4-L2 and have Lady 4 or I leave the dance if we're still untrustworthy?
But I like your pair
WORKS FOR ME
the striked portion bothers me, it feels superficial, and I get the sense the 2-4 pairs are both T-T and L1 was hoping for a clean first dance
In post 3245, Lady 1 wrote:for the record I would flip g3/L6 over G2/L4 but I know that won't happen. I just want bragging rights post game
"bragging rights post game" is just "towncred" in another dialect
if you thought G2 was townie late pre-dance why's he back down to null
this is mostly rhetorical and picking at the fact L1 has done a very poor job expressing any real read progression
this again
so essentially, it comes down to L6 is playing a farce, acting up in certain ways that seem like scum tactics, plus she has either questionable or nonexistent logic for like 95% of her reads
