It's a lot more reactiony, which is fine. That being said, it feels like he's got cards to play but he's keeping them to himself and only teasing hints of them now and then. I don't think it's AI. It's just more, has a reason to only share thoughts when they're relevant and the most likely to get genuine reactions from their thoughts. Precise is probably more correct. It reminds me of what I've liked from FlavorLeaf in the past. I largely feel good about him. It's just as possible this is just good scumplay, but nah I don't think so.

wasn't really my point. Like I personally think that both of them are a bit scummy but they are defending your scumread and you think they are town for it?
I think they look like they're picking a fight with you for no good reason and that's something I attribute to Town.
That being said there are a couple issues I have with the VP slot:
In post 1587, VP Baltar wrote:
In post 1585, humaneatingmonkey wrote:yeah that was what stood out to me

he chose to scumread frogster with the most level 0 read you can read frogster's opening post
Pretty sure I scum read frogster for something similar the first time I played with them. I'm so out of the loop right now, but frogster is an acquired taste that can result in strong negative reactions at first, imo.
This sounds more like scum!VP trying to pocket me rather than town!VP being weary and trying to sort me.

This is alarming.
Bruce: Terry. I've been thinking about something you once told me... and you were wrong. It's not Batman that makes you worthwhile; it's the other way around. Never tell yourself anything different.

page 8-10


okay yeah, fireisredsir just continuously feels super townie to me. i think Post#176 is a townie post from Nero Cain, as it sounds like he is considering/assessing Firebringer authentically. also it makes me a bit wary about Firebringer, partially because i sort of also had a bad feeling from them right away too but i couldn't really put my finger on why. @Nero Cain do you know if he has claimed scum as town before, or does this mean Firebringer could just be mafia? (if this gets addressed later i'm sorry, but can't promise i will get to that, i have ~an hour to play right now)

i like Guilty Lion i think. there were a few times i almost commented on this but felt like i couldn't substantiate it, but it feels like a lot of consistent "this player is really trying to solve/engage with the game" posts

p#223 i wanted to call a townie post from datisi then i realized it was for the person i subbed for =p wellll i feel like the thought in the second part of the post is at least a little bit villagery, expressing a thought then realizing it's something you've been wrong about before, because they could've just pushed at me for it if they're mafia.

i think the way ausuka jumped as datisi in post#235 seemed townie, as in believable at the moment, and i remembered a couple other minor things i liked from this person so i'm comfortable to note it here as a townread.

lean town:
fireisredsir, scamper, humanmonkey, nero cain, guilty lion, datisi, ausuka
(i know this is too many, probably, but just trying to sort things for now)
lean mafia:
ydresse, firebringer

I don't think I've ever seen you do an RQS. My last 2 scum games with Frog he has NOT posted a RQS though. I mean, we are getting into trust tell territory though so...
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

because i did not like that first post at all


however, i want to note in doing so i still find relly sus and his responses on the last page did not really move the needle for me
In response to your previous, I threw down a vote because I think it's a waste of time to be not voting, especially when there are no near-elim wagons.
I read the first 15ish pages last night when I requested the slot and a couple of folks are on my radar, off the top of my head joining in Datisi was most memorable of those so sent it there.
Question is:
If my slot flaking is nai, and you only dislike my first post, why is it better to vote me than stick to your read that you've mentioned on irellephant, which I presume you have developed far more over the preceding 60ish pages?
Would you say you are typically a composed person?
Yeah I don't know, that's not really for me to say. I might like to think so. Why?
your response to scamper felt rather unshaken when I felt it would make more sense to be a bit rattled so I was curious if you would call that your normal method of response

In post 1624, GuiltyLion wrote:although CMM I do want to know who those other people are still
OK I read back some and ISOd some folks
I think there's scum in:
Ari, marci, the eira slot, frog, firered
I need to read marci's iso because it was all incidental stuff from reading other folks'.
I think your push on FB is wrong but useful and I like your play.
My Datisi read I think is wrong for now and I'm gonna move my vote. Later stuff certainly appears to be working toward a solve. Page 28 interactions with FB aside but I thing ye all talked about that enough.
I thought also maybe skip and scamp had scum between them but then actually skitter's iso looked pretty good and I haven't looked at scamp properly yet.
HEMs early stuff I thought town and also VP but a few things struck me as off from both and I would like to look back properly at both.
I don't particularly think FB is town but I can wait for him to kick into gear for now and he's done enough that I am not auto scumreading so I don't want to vote there right now.
I am interested in seeing more of Xof's iso dives to see what kind of content is there
I will look at some stuff in the morning. I'm trying to just chuck down rough notes so I don't have to start fresh so I appreciate this is a bit halfhazard.

RN I like Datisi, Nero, and GL.

It's misleading to characterize my survey as an RQS because the questions aren't random.
