i've been reading but have had a very empty head for quite some time now. i don't know what to make of my wagon or the game after thinking andante was definitely scum for such a long time. i originally thought that andante and april were scum together. i kept saying that andante scum cleared april because i really wanted to see people's reactions to that and to see if i could get scum to bus andante in return for a hard townread on april who seems like a strong player (everyone seems to know them for some reason?). obviously, i can't prove that but you can really see the difference in passion between that read which i repeated in two really thin posts as compared to my andante read. i was really deep in that tunnel and now that i dont think it's correct, i don't know what to think about the game. im afraid to commit to any reads because my brain knows andante isn't scum but im still clinging on to that thought.
i keep wanting to just reply to osuka's long post the way he's been replying to my posts out of frustration but i know it doesn't help. there is no case on me and i don't know what to do about that. i don't know what im doing and this is kind of where i am. i guess this will sound like im lost but im not. im just processing and waiting.-

this was actually the reason for my hard townread on holiday. holiday directly said that them being scum together made a ton of sense, which it did. i wanted to agree but i still felt that andante was scum with april at the time and felt i needed scum's buses to get the wagon through so i didn't. but if that helps bring clarity to that read, there's that.-

Unfortunately you don't control the gamestate on your own and without knowing who you are I don't think April would ever take that bait.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!-

i was hoping that scum would think andante was beyond saving and just decide to bus after seeing a post like that. i guess that might sound a bit stupid but i sort of imagine that if andante were scum, they'd be active and panicking in the scum pt. i think in that situation, scum are naturally inclined to bus and a little push topples the whole tower. obviously, this is wrong and i don't believe that is the case at all anymore but that was my thought process at the time.-

andante was under a decent amount of pressure at one point in time. i think a little panicking from scum andante would've made scum at least think about bussing. at that time, i think it's fair to say i was becoming the most widely townread person just based off those pages of the game. in that situation, i saw myself as having a little bit more power than i normally would and wanted to see if i could get a scum flip with it.-

Meta read? Or you just think you command so much force with a page 8 read that scum would feel unable to shake it?In post 1104, Azaariah wrote:i guess that might sound a bit stupid but i sort of imagine that if andante were scum, they'd be active and panicking in the scum pt.
Given how early your read came out, I wouldn't be taking it that seriously as Andante's partner, or even as Andante herself. If you were someone she knew and/or respected, that might be different.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.

i do not know andante. however this was around page 16 and i think it was genuinely possible under certain circumstances that andante gets quickhammered there. this did not happen but i think it was a real possibility that would've been even more real if andante were actually scum.In post 1110, Something_Smart wrote:

Which is an typical scum playstyle.
i was surprised how often they had been pinging me day 1 for suspicious behaviors (i normally use points like that as just public notes of people i find suspicious so day 2 i have something to look at, but when 75% of them was all one person!), so i voted.In post 1061, NorwegianboyEE wrote:I see a lot of votes for Azaariah but the push is so weak.

Do the slots voting Azaariah actually scumread them?

Day 1 sucks.In post 1114, Gamma Emerald wrote:Geranit what are ur reads
I have no clue about anyone. I have voted for someone but they are like +25% over average to be scum. This is because in thr past when I have tried to use "naughty poibts" to try and find scummy players by the end of thr game I was usually 100% wrong - I have very little confidence in my day 1 reads (hence my normal day 1 sucks mantra)
A few players are spamming the thread and doesn't help me at all get a feel for the game (if I come back overnight to six pages of YouTube videos, hard to find anything worth paying attention to).
Game is drifting badly, I would have expected there to be a few more sharp exchanges between people but no one seems bothered.
I feel like I am being given a pass even more than normal, usually someone tries to get something going on me day 1 before they get told "this is just how geraint plays" and I get left alone until later. Dunno why?
I am also getting even less interactions with others....this message is the first time I can remember in days someone has reacted to me. I feel a little lonely to be honest....why I have written so much now in reply to you-

I probably would have said "geraint wagon sucks" if there ever was one.
But as it turns out there isn’t soo…

And the reason why i have Geraint and A50 so differently, despite doing pretty much the same thing. Is that Geraint feels genuinely lost, while A50 feels like they’re just doing it on purpose.Norwe is spontaneous, has a stream-of-consciouness posting style, usually posts on catch-ups by commenting on past pages posts, gets rather fired up in certain moments in games, is relatively as playful as me in games and likes casual shitposting
