I voted her because she made 3 contentless posts to begin with. Wondering why Zaiden decided to hop on, but probably for similar reasons.

Came right when an argument against SPF started rising, so putting a vote on the lead wagon to what felt to me as avoiding that argument to turn into a new wagon is scummy.

I'm scumreading SPF the most so take that in mind

If he wasn't looking back on his votes, then yeah it's scummy. Definitely possible that he just decided to tack on some reasons to scumread the person attacking him.

He's not wrong, I am coming to the same conclusion as I am developing my impressions, although my motives are different.

Midway is very towny by meta.

Pink Ball why is SPF your strongest SR?
I can understand your logic on me but that read seems less developed which doesn’t exactly make sense for your strongest read

What's your read on Jake now?
rand town, i
guess
. his reasoning is extremely hard for me to understand but i don't sense any scum intention from his posts. there is a level of internal consistency to their progression from the way they go from questioning gamma on #137 to scumreading them on #168. i also think that they'd be less likely to tell noraa to stop posting so much on #383 if they were playing from a scum mindset - i imagine that scum would be happy to have a player like noraa to distract from the gamesolving

Yeah, I'm pretty sure peta has a pretty good handle on reading me which is why I asked.
I scrolled through those posts from Jake, and your points seem pretty good. Those seemed to come after your interaction yesterday, so I'm guessing you still find his reactions in the moment to be a bit muddled?

@clidd Long time no see. Excited for your thoughts :)

yeah, i thought his reaction was strange in the sense that he seemed perfectly comfortable with the prospect of being a "LHF" player that people push on all of the time, but he also seemed genuinely frustrated and annoyed about the pressure on him. it was weird to see him actively digging his grave while sounding so stressed out about it, and his reasoning/questioning toward me felt completely nonsensical in the moment

in spite of that, i don't necessarily see his reaction as coming from a scum mindset. if anything, the messiness and inconsistency of his reaction is town indicative

I read them as trying too hard to act comfortable.

Which is entirely what I'd expect from a new player participating in an event like this.
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!

Dann is already proving that he was a valuable pick for our team:

@PB can you elaborate on your early townreads, particularly the Maria one?

We seem to be on the same page that midway is town and Cheet/Murder are lesser-but-still-probably town. Dann likes Noraa and Monty for wagons, and of the two I vibe with monty a little harder.

BTW, I think I'm a little more cautious on Jake because of this, but I do still have him as slight town.

Murder, would be interested in hearing about your scumread on Jake.

New to MS, I mean. Obviously she has mafia experience; you don't invite someone completely new to the game to Team Mafia.

Ah ok, tbf I was a bit worried about that too, but my experience with scumreading people who make those scumclaim type posts have been mixed.
I'm not sure if I think claiming scum is the way to act comfortable though.

SPF is from EM and that site is much faster paced than this one, I highly doubt someone from EM would be uncomfortable in a slower paced environment?

i actually felt
extremely
out of place in the first few hours of this game, because i'm used to refreshing threads on my homesite and seeing 20+ new posts every 10 minutes

i'm getting more used to it now tho
