Emp your push to get black to claim whether we are masons is, uh, not a town one. If you have that theory, propose it and come back to it if black does die tonight and flips mason, but don't try and get PRs to out themselves on d1? Like this shouldn't have to be said. The answer to that question whether it is yes we are masons or no we are not masons is only helpful to scum because then they have more information on where the PRs are which makes it easier for them to plan their NAs and work out how they are going to win the game. This is by a mile the scummiest thing anyone has tried so far this game."Leave it to the god of wine to liven things up around here."-

It just feels weird that skitter has basically conftowned Empath. Like how can you be so sure he's town just because you share one read? Skitter said Dio was scummy for having bad scumreads but Empath has one of Skitter's townreads at the bottom of his list: patchwork. And why are Dio's scumreads so bad if you both agreed kawaii was scummy? You seem to only have an issue with his Empath sr? Weird. Empath's aggressive tone is not alignment indicative either. And skitter said Dio is scummy for not solving but he is objectively solving more than Empath and that isn't even debatable. It feels like skitter townreads every scummy thing Empath does and comes up with some excuse for it. I don't understand
I don't think a scum team would be this openly coordinated but the interactions are just too weird to completely dismiss it-

Skitter had clearly just decided I was scum after 2 posts and has tunnelled me since:
Pretty much since then it has been "this is scummy", "this is suspicious", "this is off" to pretty much my every move, while townreading others for similar things (see: the tr on patch and now empath).In post 22, skitter30 wrote: And what do both of u think of dio?
I agree with you that it is unlikely skitter and empath are scum together. Just too obvious a pairing. So until we get a flip from empath I'm just gonna have to put this down to skitter having an, uh, off game, to put it mildly.
For info skitter and I have played one game together (2110) and she flopped at reading me then too. The tunnel wasn't as bad as this but I was her top sr for most if not all of day 1."Leave it to the god of wine to liven things up around here."-

Dio is scum
And a partner in the remainder imo
This ia my present view of the game
I don't feel like you're solving - you have a lot of activity and are ~here a lot but tbh i don't really feel like you have solid scumreads
Conversely, what do you like about Empath's scumreads? And how do you feel about Empath's attempt at solving so far this game?
- i don't like dio's vote on empathice when he joined the game, or his vote on hadriaan while pushing patches. I feel like they are performative. I also don't like the sr on empathice
- i like empathice's sr on dio, and i'm townreading the aggression/confidence. I don't think most wolves sugggest a thunderdome, or would ask abt masons in thread. These sorts of thinga might not be *pro-town* (in fact, i would argue that they aren't), but they aren't very likely to come from scum either. I would be v surprised tbh if scum did eitther of those things. The way ge's playing is unideal, sure, but it'a hard for me to call it scum. This is at that point the main reason for the tr, it's a little less abt his dio push tbh
Also: i don't really liie the conclusions of ' there's probably scum in me/empathice' b/c i know i'm town and i think empathice is as well, and trying to flip both of us is rather unideal from my povShowHiatus once more.

Which is also why i didnt really want to get into the meta b/c going to be hard to justify it, but i feel p strongly that this game doesnt look much like that one
If you want to look at like day3+ of that game you couod see he's universally townread. And earlier in the game he had controversial opinions that he was pushing too
And, like, i don't think the fact that i'm being lazy, which i will readily admit to, invalidates the points i'm mentioning eitherShowHiatus once more.

These votes are consistent with his playstyle. He votes inactives/lurkers and that's NAIIn post 638, skitter30 wrote:- i don't like dio's vote on empathice when he joined the game, or his vote on hadriaan while pushing patches.
Townies are performative all the time. This isn't a scumtellI feel like they are performative.
Do you like his sr on Kawaii? Also do you like Empathice's sr on patches?I also don't like the sr on empathice
Why don't you tr Dio for his aggression/confidence?- i like empathice's sr on dio, and i'm townreading the aggression/confidence.
I don't think justifying scummy behavior because "scum probably wouldn't do this" is good logic. And I disagree that wolves are unlikely to try to pull this off, especially in a newbie game where it would be much easier to try to out the Masons D1. Thunderdoming? It's too easy for a wolf to manipulate in a newbie game, and Emp never said he would go first. wolf!Emp could easy have the motive of suggesting this to clear himself, pushing for the Dio lim, and then finding a way to get out of it on D2. That's not out of the question at allI don't think most wolves sugggest a thunderdome, or would ask abt masons in thread. These sorts of thinga might not be *pro-town* (in fact, i would argue that they aren't), but they aren't very likely to come from scum either.

'Scum wouldnt do this' is like the key metric for scumhunting imo. That's how i find town and my thought process when trying to read people
If you can figure out what scum won't do, and you see someone doing it anyways, they're probably town. It works
And honestly i townread the sheet audacity of offering a thunderdome: i have a really, really hard time seeing scum trying that moveShowHiatus once more.
