like this first line:

"townie in a vacuum" is saying its townie, but only without the other things

then you go into "townie intent" but what's the scum intent?

Why can't she just be frustrated with the game state and being screamed at and just wanted people to give her some space to gather her thoughts?

anti-town at best the third line, its like saying its kanna's fault for messing up the way she claimed so even if she flips green here it's not your fault for mis-reading her, it's her fault for messing up here claim.

the final line is more hedging - and saying you can't see how a townie mindset could play like this as if the qualifier is on her to play to an exact townie model.

like people are people.

people are not robots.

people do not play exactly the correct line of play every time.

especially someone sensitive like Kanna who is getting attacked with unrelenting pressure.

So I don't see how you can be this unsympathetic and not see how she could possibly mess up.
and why can't she be scum collasping under pressure and playing incoherently

Stop this wagon asap. I'm 99% sure this claim is real.
I agree but fruit vendor can 100% be a mafia role
And most likely, Spring is claiming one of her partner's role. She wanted to fakeclaim something strong and they probably told her that the best shot to save herself was claiming something weak and showing herself like she accepts her destiny. Don't fall for this, we got our claim, now get read of her. She softclaimed a PR. She's lying.

I mean anyone who says they're 100% confident in anything is deluding themself, first of all.

And second of all, that's not how knowledge works. You can't know something for no reason. Even if he is right, that's no guarantee that Kanna wouldn't have been able to do what she did as scum.

Also, using as a serious justification is... kinda creepy, honestly. I assumed that the flirting that Pooky and Kanna did was mostly just joking, but this reads like it's serious, and if it's serious then it definitely has no place here.
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!

Sorry Noraa, but let's prevent this from becoming a huge mess of a D1 like Death Curse and flip the maybe scum early. Would have saved us a ton of effort in Death Curse too.
And worst case scenario we're flipping a VT. Anyone wanting to derail this shit is scum

So I don't see how you can be this unsympathetic and not see how she could possibly mess up.
i don't know why you're accusing me of being unsympathetic toward kanna for pointing out that her actions are objectively anti-town regardless of her alignment

and no, anti-town does not always = scum. it's possible for SB to be town that genuinely just wanted to get the pressure off of her, and that's something i acknowledge. i empathize with the position of having a lot of pressure on you and feeling the need to pull it off

but which answer requires the least amount of assumptions?

1. SB is scum that decided to hard soft PR under pressure because she thought it would look towny

2. SB is town that decided to hard soft PR under pressure because she was annoyed at the pressure on her and she wanted people to back off?

2 is a possibility, but it requires significantly more logical hoops to jump through to understand the mindset - whereas 1 is the obvious explanation that's true in
most
scenarios like this

i'm willing to consider kanna as town, but i'm not going to townread her for doing something town-indicative, or just because i feel bad for the pressure she's under

the burden of proof is on you to explain why this type of mindset is town indicative, rather than explaining why the mindset MIGHT come from town

I'm saying the way you are framing this feels very political - as if you are trying to excuse her green flip on her misplay rather than you mis-reading her.

The partner can just send peaches to another scum. Thats not a problem. Kanna would be fucked cuz she can't send peaches tho so this is almost certainly a real role here.

Well, okay. She and Pooky are the only ones making an active effort to derail it. But right after the claim, there were at least a couple people who started looking at other options, kinda subtly implying that they didn't want to kill Kanna as much anymore. If she's scum, that's where I would think scum is more likely to be.

No the problem is that Kanna's role is real. Like even scum would have to be extremely stupid to pull some shit with exchanging roles or something.
Which is why kanna is either town fruit or scum fruit.
There are NO other options.

Scum fruit softing strong pr just to claim fruit later on is absolute SUICIDE.
Town fruit however might think they can make people back off and not have to claim to later get nk'ed
