Why do you "maybe need to reassess" for me
i feel like people's response to your catchup isn't genuine but maybe i'm wrong. i'm coming from the mindset that you are town and seeing who is like "oh this catchup sucks" instead of like "it's fine" which i think or even "here's my problem with your catchup." i feel like rean (and norwee for that matter) falls in the first camp which looks like he's trying to shade you.
as for your second question i think that people were prematurely scumreading you in absentia while i was prematurely townreading you during that period and there's definitely the possibility i'm just wrong about you and you are scum and i need to assess for that and think about that as well and how that affects things, i think that makes the "oh this catchup sucks" people look less bad if you are scum
I'm scumreading the gap in your enthusiasm between the games we played together[where you were town] and this game.
Faking a townmindset/solving as scum is not
fun
for a lot of people so they tend to not do it.
When I played previously with you - both times you were very enthusiastic in solving during the early game and I felt quite good about slotting you as town.
Here you just feel like you didn't really show up to play and then when put to e-1 you did a "Catchup" that felt more like someone who had to produce some homework they procrastinated on for too long than someone actually trying to communicate their mindset.
I take it you know who their main is? What gave it away for you?
(Btw, i don’t really know)

Gotta say, something about Yeet’s posting is making my skin crawl.

has no time to go through the game has time to make defensive statements
all they wanna share is how much they "totally can't be scum" here with no solvy energy.

Yeah it’s just so survivalistic.

And they r like: "ok back to voting Norwe" without really explaining why anything makes me scum?

I have no idea what yeet's main is, I'm just going off the two games I played with them

Why do you think koopa should be listened to exactly?
Because right now I think they’re following their town self except for post activity.
I think if they’re in control I can sort them based on how they push someone.
I think their scum premeditated pushes might give something away and I think their town so no risk in seeing what they do with that control.

Ok well you expected wrong. I don’t like the catchup and i’m town.

I can try to turn my messy thoughts into intelligble words once i’m not phone posting and wake up tommorow.

for example what exactly do you think Town!me would've done so far this game that in your opinion scum!me hasn't done?
Uh again my answer is gonna be pretty general here, I don't really have anything specific for you at this moment. I play very much in-the moment. But I expect you to be pushing people and lines of questioning and getting intense which I don't see much of. Perhaps it is simply too early, but I definitely don't see why people are townreading you, at the very least.
In isolation I don't really "scumread you" persay. You have a solid town and scumgame which makes reading you in general difficult. I'm very much a PoE player and no one this game exactly sticks out as scum.
When no one sticks out as scum, this is when a good time for reevaluation is good. Take a piece of paper and write why you TR each person. Is it because X said they’re town? Is it a post?
Then maybe relationships can come up and you see a weak spot or convince others their reasoning is shit.

I don’t really see why this is town, Ari.
What else am I supposed to do if not post a wall with a lot of rambling? Can you actually remember the last time you townread someone for a catchup wall? I certainly can't. The catchup wall is not exactly a townspew here (it is for me personally, but I can't expect you to know that - I'll be very clear when I think I've townspewed in a way that I think people should grasp, and I'll be candid that I don't think it has happened yet), it's the springboard to get me back in the game and have an anchor for some of my thoughts and play going forward.
And there is almost no spacing in their text. (Biggest crime)
What is not organic about it? Can you explain what you think a catchup wall needs to be more organic to your standards?
And I apologize for no spacing, I do realize it makes it a bit difficult to read.
I can. It depends on how the wall is formulated and whether it’s stream of consciousness or not. The former is much easier to get a read on but the latter is easier to read.
VOTE: Unvote
That being said I like the emotion behind this post.
adding UNVOTE: for the vote counter. ~D

It feels like something you are obligated to do and performative in that regard.
Like you decided hey I'm going to sit down and write thoughts on each slot and you pressed ISO one by one and wrote down whatever you thought of the ISO.
It implies you haven't been forming reads in real time but kind of just slacking and catching up at the end.
I told you how I formed the readslist
And yes you are correct except I didn't ISO everyone individually, I just reskimmed the whole game. I mentioned that I didn't have time the past few days and that's why I was more or less out. I am here now.
What is scummy about any of this?
It feels like you were not very interested in sorting/solving as the thread was actually happening and you needed to re-read everything because you were going to be killed otherwise.
That's scummy because some people do not like playing scum and have to be made to fake a town mindset.
Definitely agree with the disclaimer. I like scum waaaay more than town. Town feels like hitting my head against a brick wall eventually almost always.

This is the only thing bugspray thought to post coming in
No content, no acknowledgment that they already had one foot out the door, just appealing to emotion
At least Yeet provided content when the time came, so I feel like this should get more scrutiny?
