What do you mean by carry over?

The fact that there was “reasoning” behind the vote, then the attempt at recruiting the most verbose player thus far, which was promptly ignored.

If it was just a joke vote I would have ignored it, it was the follow ups that I wanted clarification on. The vote could have been on anyone and I would still be questioning the motivations.

[fua]

Eh. Fair enough.

What are your thoughts on the game beyond that? Any reads on players/statements besides Natalya’s?

[Scorpious]

ah nice!

yeezys(1) ~ Egix96(1)
UglyDuck(1) ~ Andresvmb(2)
Scorpious(1) ~ Natalya(9)
Natalya(1) ~ Oman(2)
fua(1) ~ Scorpious(5)
Egix96(1) ~ Retti(2)
Andresvmb(1) ~ UglyDuck(1)

So these are the "haha (vote x)" people and there's way too many for that to be all town,

The people that came back and talked were Retti, Scorp, Natalya

I might TR Oman, I know what they're talking about

Leaves Egix, Andres, UglyDuck, likely at least 1 scum in them


(I know it's crazy vague, but game just started, and that's where my initial suspicious go)

I’m regards to your “bottom 3”, what is that based on, the context of this post leans toward activity. Am I interpreting this correctly?

[Andante]

I mean, RVS, what sense does it make to vote someone and leave. isn't RVS about pressuring random people? getting some sort of random wagon going? cause 7 people with 1 vote on them is just dumb

[Andante]

like, it's like we're trying to go no where

[Scorpious]

I have doubts that we will get something useful out of T3

Again, based on?

Andante comes across as very genuine and inquisitive. Her questioning of Natalya feels like a Town who wants to get the game forward, which is congruent with her earlier statements.
Natalya... idk? It's hard to separate the fluff from readable content. The one thing that stuck out to me was 56. From what I've seen there's a general sentiment from players who have played with me before that I'm hard to read. From this, Natalya is lean town. It's also possible that Natalya was reaction testing Scorpious, in which case she's even more towny.
Retti is a (possible) scumread. His point about Natalya in 61 is eerily similar to reasoning I've used as scum before to justifly shade on someone immediately after RVS. In FIA WRC, another player hyped up a tone scumread on a newbie. Scum me immediately shaded that player and got an early wagon on them. The reason I say possibly, is because Retti isn't me, and this might be a legitimate tell town him uses.
Scorpious is nullscum. His reaction to Natalya's 'scumread' was bad but I want to excuse it as an older player coming back to the site and feeling out-of-place with the site meta.

I hate the timing of this post in relation to the one by Natalya.

But when I get an answer to why she singled out T3, in saying she isn’t expecting much. It may make more sense.

[Scorpious]

T3,

Have you played many games with Natalya?

[Scorpious]

I honestly can't look at #33 being said from town like that

Did the post I referenced above change this thinking at all?

[Andante]

I mean, so far I'm liking Natalya, not gonna lie

[Scorpious]

I mean, so far I'm liking Natalya, not gonna lie

I am too, I really like that opening, even if I was the random target.

[Scorpious]

I am still wary of the follow up though, I hope to get an explanation

[T3]

Since when do you explain yourself this much?

[Retti]

Actually, calling it now: those reads are fake, fake, fake. town!T3 just posts blunt, underexplained thought fragments while scum!T3 is way more concerned with projecting towniness and looking like he has explanations for all his reads. The reads on Natalya and Scorp are both blatant hedges as well. It's a post that's trying to look solvey but doesn't actually commit to most of its reads.

VOTE: T3

[Retti]

I also agree with T3’s sentiments on Scorpious for now. The reaction to a scumread based on one post seems a little too defensive, but it’s not enough for me to fully scumread them at the moment.

Noting this as a blatant hedge as well, echoing T3 while keeping their vote on him.

It's just there to get conversation started. It's not like there's rules for it. I think you probably just have unrealistic expectations for how active other people are going to be. Calm down, let people work into the game on their own time rather than getting worked up over nothing.

[Retti]

Scorpious seems Fine. Getting grumpy over getting scumread for an RVS post is an understandable reaction, if anything, don't get why people are saying it's bad. It's like how anyone responding to being pushed gets called "defensive", because they're...defending themselves. Means nothing.

[Retti]

Good morning. What an interesting start to a game. Please to be here for it.

Andante is the obvious elephant in the room, but I'm not overly concerned at this point. I know people can get really talky when they're scum but eh I'm mostly seeing enthusiasm. The response to #33 wasn't stellar, but also doesn't give me enough red flags.

If I was going to pick a direction to go now, it'd be VOTE: Natalya.

Eh, I'll bite: Why Natalya?

I can agree with the sentiments of a person that I think is scum. Scum aren’t going to obviously distance or lie 100% of the time— that’s just bad play. It’s a matter of separating what’s theater from what’s bussing.

Can I not scumread both T3 and Scorp when the former has the latter as a scumread?

[Azaariah]

i have some thoughts on the game but won't say them yet VOTE: scorpio

[fua]

I shall also not say anything yet.

I wanted to explain my reasoning because I recently completed a game where my not explaining my reasoning led to me being unable to remember what my thought process was. This also caused some scumreads on me.

[Scorpious]

T3,

Have you played many games with Natalya?

Probably.

Is this sarcasm? Is it apathy? Do you not know?

I don't know for a fact. Natalya is an alt,

probably

of a player I've played with a lot.
