it just makes no sense to me that you would be nked n1 over players who would be nked n1 for their strength AND are far more likely to be prs.

i guess you have a point in that they were a lot more willing to actually interface with people and discuss things with them, yeah

Mena/skitter interactions super feel like T/T, there's an attitude of "I'm paranoid of you but hope you're town and want to work with you"

yet you also made a thing about how my reads are bad bc my SRs are concentrated in the PRs, and you called out that you think that the scum strat was to have 2 in the 4s (and I guess 1 5 who was supposed to get a PR) in order for town to like eat themselves or something and I don't think that's a likely scum strat at all

and also you're hung up on the "why would scum NK mena N1" thing when we've already covered that there are at /least/ a couple of plausible explanations for there being no NK on N1 that don't necessarily imply that the reason there was no NK has anything to do with me being JK'd

like the whole "I'm fine eliminating you because you've now claimed VT" thing seems lowkey kinda lazy in a game that's this PR heavy

yes, I'm aware of the irony after my insistence that shelly should die in the mini-normal

also, JV I'm kinda surprised isn't higher, I thought you were quite confident there

also, I don't disagree on the penguin, but what's making you put him up at around the top tier? same for S_S?
i dont' think i was townreading him *that* strongly at eod yesterday
(and if i was i don't remember it)
and rn the read doesn't feel that strong

the top tier is people i'm super super super confident are town. jv is like probably town but the read isn't that strong. like you're on the same level

penguin i can sometimes just kinda tell he's town and i think he's town here, and i like that he came around to scum!tgp before it was popular

ss is also kinda behaving in a way that i feel is congruent with town!him

i know that these might not be super helpful but i'm a little more busy these days and not reading the thread quite *as carefully* so a lot of my reads boil down to like ~vibes~ that i get from reading a lot of posts kinda quickly that i don't necessarily have all the concrete details to back up without going back and rereading like nice chunks of the thread

okay, why
he came up with that explanation /follow up *really* fast (in like a handful of minutes), and it's a thought process that i think is kinda unlikely to come from scum

similarly partly why i think you're town now is that you're writing with conviction and clear follow-through on posts in very quick real time (like the wall you just responded to minutes after i posted mine)

Penguin is no longer in the game. Please use my full, and correct, username when referring to me. Thank you for your cooperation.

You and mena syncing up is refreshing/really concerning. One of those two.

I think JV is much more likely than TGP to be scum pretending to be town stuck in a tunnel. For example, feels like a town "aha" moment. JV has tunneled peta from super early on giving very little focus to other slots, and when they did, it was often on NAI stuff. I don't think town tunnels based on an early d1 response to a joke, and didn't feel like a "heh I'm gonna catch you with this" post.

i said he's good enough at scum to give me strong townpings, not that he's god-tier
other people would be n1'ed before him because they're similarly strong players and far more likely to be prs

How much does that count for if TGP isn't scum?
It's always the same. When you fire that first shot, no matter how right you feel, you have no idea who's going to die. You don't know whose children are going to scream and burn. How many hearts will be broken. How many lives shattered. How much blood will spill, until everybody does what they're always going to have to do from the very beginning... SIT DOWN AND TALK!
