Not that i didn’t believe it, but it was just one reasoning, and I think Chandra had possible scum vibes from the whole ordeal

Pedit @Klick
I agree with this.

Same. I feel the opposite is generally true.

Scum can be as scummy fluffy as they want early because at the end of the day, there’s no good case on people early.

Scum don’t care if they almost get faded in early early game because more than likely there’ll be people who go “woah let’s not end the day that fast” and then people will go elsewhere

Man, that post I made on a whim getting a lot of action.

I really hadn’t read like any of the game at that point.

This looks fake and noncommittal, but I’m still trying to pocket you, so you can still be town for now.
I am saying that I think you have a pretty wide scum range and I think the best way to catch you is to look at your actions in the aggregate and decide if you've been pushing pro town or pro scum narratives. That's impossible to evaluate without some corpses.

He drops in and says he might contribute later. Then he drops a seemingly harmless question asking if people are enjoying fighting the training dummy

I think scum want to get as much info out of town as they possibly can. Talking about our training dummy fights is a great way to do that

I wouldn’t agree that it’s impossible. People just overthink me. I think refusing to read is just kinda lazy.

In theory, your reasoning should apply to everyone in the game, but you’re singling me out for some reason.

it seems weird to call my post "non-committal." like its some kind of gotcha.

like yeah dude it's non-committal. I was explicitly saying I will not commit to a read on you on day 1. I wasn't trying to be sneaky about it.

Probably the wrong word, and I was thinking two steps ahead of myself.

But yeah, just a weird play that seems to have come to momentum stop.

I think it's a fair criticism.
You're coming into the game very hard on a slot that merely posted they don't have time to read the 5 pages. If this is how you typically play regardless of alignment then i won't take too much issue. But still i find it independently to be more likely coming from scum that wants to take a grand standing early but does it by pushing an lurker slot.
I can see this. Neither have anything memorable. Could this be a prefer town but backup scum partner situation?

I think he fell behind regardless of alignment, that doesn't strike me as a tell either way.

What on earth do you think talking about training dummy fights accomplishes for scum? It was the most vague, inoffensive question imaginable, do you actually believe scum are going to try to fish out details of people's roles that way? Like his master plan is to get people to go "yeah I've got +2 ATK so it was easy for me even with -1 DEF"?

Ok, I can do Norway town for now. I'm a little uneasy given I mind melded some with scum in Team mafia. However, it's good for now.

Any information scum can obtain about our Pokemon is valuable to them. Even if someone were to say "oh no I'm not having fun the training dummy keeps destroying me!" then that can be useful for the scum. I'm surprised your not seeing how talking about the training battles could be detrimental to the town tbh
