flavour

[Datisi]

Ydrasse replaces Noraa.

[StrangeMatter]

So is that the third or fourth person replaced.

[Ydrasse]

i repped in after skimming a few noraa posts and going "yeah, noraa's town," and then i was rewarded with finding out that i can in fact read noraa

hi everyone, hello familiar faces, hello to new ones

[StrangeMatter]

Hello Ydrasse.

You've been watching this game for a while, right? Can we hear what you have to say about other people?

[Ydrasse]

nope, i skimmed it in like ~3 minutes and just over noraa's slot

will read soon(?)

[Ydrasse]

@roden hey. let's talk when you're around.

[Roden]

I'm here. I can respond on my break.

[Ydrasse]

oh, i wasn't asking for a response to anything particular, i just wanted some thoughts that weren't explicitly *at* someone i guess, but your read on things currently

[Cabd]

:/ on one hand, easiest townread ever repped out before I could mess with her some more.

On the other hand, fairly-certain-it's-town ydra!

[Ydrasse]

yes, it is town ydra!

it is finally a lie for me to say i wouldn't have repped into a scum slot, but, i was looking for something chill and this seemed easy enough =)

is this town cabd?

[Cabd]

You'll have to figure that one out on your own, spoilers are no fun.

[Ydrasse]

i appreciate you being in enough pain and agony and guilt to not be able to lie to me and say town

[Illwei]

My question to you is, why DON'T you care about the votes on you? As town, you want to get enough information as possible, so if you are getting voted by people who may possibly be scum, you would want to address why they're voting you so you could possibly sort out the alignments of your votes

Gotta be completely honest I don't follow this one bit tbh.

I think it might be the fact that I can't comprehend the statement "enough information as possible" tbh. Because. that...just...doesn't...
well.

They say why they're voting on me tbh, so why would me engaging in that matter at all? If I feel the need to defend then I will but to be frank, I don't have the energy right now, and I don't see how defending myself would help me sort them.

If I may, I'd like to answer this. Sorting is not defending, and is more like gauging someone's alignment from their responses and such.

I don't think Italiano/Cabd is town. I already mentioned it earlier but they have a lot of posts yet no real content. Italiano specifically kept teasing that he had a plan and a read list, but he never actually posted it.

Bimble vs Illwei is an interesting situation. Illwei has made a couple naked votes now and I don't think it's alignment indicative. I voted for them earlier, but I think they're at least trying to play the game, at least compared to Bimble who has an abysmally low post count as well as inconsistent sorting. He somehow managed to contradict himself within seven posts, or is at the very least way too wishy washy for someone with low content. I think Bimble is the more likely scum between the two and his "OMGUS" vote on Illwei indicates that to me.

GrandpaMo is town for actually trying to scum hunt and ask questions. Seems to generally just be excited to play the game, which isn't alignment indicative but makes me town lean them for that as well.

I've already given my case on Bulge.

Strange is null for me, but they haven't done anything particularly scummy. I need to reread their ISO but they're not pinging me enough to demand an immediate closer look.

Bakslash/piisirrational don't have enough posts but I think Bakslash town slipped by avoiding RVS.

And I have you town locked because of Nora.

when r u gonna drop ur reads m8

reference to post 312. please don't ignore my questions here. i feel like these would help us as town solve ur allignment better if you explain your reasonings on a few things i have pointed out.

[Datisi]

nudging The Bulge.

[Bimblesticks]

I'm leaning town on Noraa/Ydresse. Noraa seemed reasonable in everything she said, and Ydresse hasn't commented much so I don't read her either way.

I'm leaning scum on Cabd. Italiano was talked weirdly, but more importantly, I don't feel like Cabd has contributed anything to the conversation so far. I'm leaning town on GrandpaMo, he seems rational and like he's genuinely trying to figure stuff out.

I think piisirrational seems like town. I don't feel that confident in that, but they seem to genuinely ask questions.

The fact you don't understand this makes no sense to me. As a townie, you want to gather as much information as you can, because the more information you have, the easier it is to make reads. If three people have voted you, you should be reacting and figuring out why, so you can determine whether they're doing it out of genuine concern or malicious intent. Instead you sound so lax, which I find really strange. "If I feel the need to defend then I will" I mean ideally you would want to respond to every read against you, no? If I was the most voted person right now I would be pretty clear to respond to everything people have said about me. Was planning on retracting my vote against you if you elaborated a little on why you voted for me, but you don't seem to want to elaborate on anything at the moment, so my vote stays.

And I have you town locked because of Nora.

"He somehow managed to contradict himself within seven posts" Could you elaborate? I think I've been completely consistent. Also, the reason behind my "abysmally low post count" is a) few people have pinged me or attacked me directly, b) I tend to write longer posts where I respond to everything I want to and c) I've already laid out my takes on everybody.

[Illwei]

what lol

ok then... let me ask u what makes bimble scum?

and do u have any townreds?

also what do you feel about roden?

and what do u feel about the scumreads on you? including mine

mmm sure

My vote was a statement

There's paranoia but pretty much just nora rn.
overall like bulge but there were a couple things that I didn't tbh. flip that for roden though I guess.

He's felt a bit agressive in the beginning but idk how to read people who are new but not really because they study or something

apathy

At this point I'm beginning to wonder if you're trolling to try and get a reaction. "My vote was a statement." A statement on what? "apathy" How do you feel apathetic about three people reading you as evil?

[The Bulge]

I'll have time this evening to catch up

[The Bulge]

Cabd have you read yet?
