here i think meuh was forcing her reactions and when i called her scum she responded really self-consciously imo, felt like she knew what i was seeing and didn't know how to deflect it
it's sort of plausible that she would, like she said today, as town know that she was posting weirdly and know that i noticed and also not really know how to respond to that very well
Yeah this
I saw what you were noticing and actively thought this was similar to that really weird moment at like F6 in the dance game before Ydra left and I thought you were town for noticing it
I'm just town here though
Like sometimes I just make posts that I think are scummy or match the way I'd play as scum or would push a scum agenda and when people acknowledge it not only am I fine with it but can actively find it town indicative because we're lining up in terms of what we'd expect from town/scum me
It sucks cause I wanna destroy accusations thrown at me and call out the people making them but sometimes I just make meh posts or have an awkward direction and you'll have well-intentioned people calling it out and you kinda have to live with it
quoted because formatting potentially relevant due to its uncommonness
like chicagotypewriter has only played in newbie games previously thus likely not to have encountered x-shot roles at least not in game so yeah
like i don't think(?) anyone else in this game would be likely to refer to x-shot as x-power so i think that probably comes from paraphrasing
another potentially relevant bit is that malakittens claimed an unspecified pr and refused to elaborate in native plants newbie as chicagotypewriter's mafia partner and some players reacted !! to this but it did successfully buy her a day and skitter and i were among those who opted for not eliminating her

the "TMI for saying that youll kill quickhammerers" takes were bad imo, at least I am probably a less experienced mafia player than him and I see it come from town every micro, and he makes it a big thing
I think his stance on skitter is bad / he is not truly evaluating her enough, I think skitter has lots of readable content that I personally think is towny and he's just a stagnant "lol skitter scum btw" from page 1 that's too weirdly like "saving for later" idk
I was actually going to link him the even/odd micro for as a way to show Nurse town. I think him concluding Nurse scum from that game is the incorrect conclusion imo in a way that's +0.5% scum. like at surface level that ISO feels different from that ISO, but understanding Nurse's mindset in that game makes him comfortably town for me in this game. there was lots of LAMISTy "we as a town need to work together why the fuck aren't u working with me." his reads and approach to solving just feel very similar

I don’t really know how to play mafia tbh
I comment on whatever I find interesting, if if I find a player scummy I ask questions and push them. 90% of the time I get limmed or vigged. I’ve had exactly one game as VT ever where I have not been limmed or vigged.
In this game, as far as I can tell, I’m being scumread because I’m lurking and some stuff I said hasn’t made sense, or has felt icky or whatever. How do I respond to this???
Recently I’ve been ghosting the thread. I guess I’m just often uncomfortable with real-time interaction when I’m being wagoned.
As for the stuff I’ve said that’s been weird or hasn’t made sense, I don’t have any rebuttals to that. All I can really say is that the people was my genuine thought process at the time, and that I was too dense or stupid or something to realize the flaws in my thought process.
For example, the Kcda vote/unvote. I looked at Kcda’s posts. My intuition said “hey, his posts look performative.” Then skitter said that she thought Kcda’s posts were towny so I went back, was more methodical, and thought “why could his posts be towny, and why could they be scummy?” I’ve found that I don’t have good town intuition at all and I have to rely on a more ‘robotic’ thought process to read players.
this is a towny post, Im probably unable to explain why

"lol skitter scum" is a great read and also trademarked under US Law so if you continue to steal it I will be forced to notify my lawyers to sue you.

i don't know like everything keeps feeling like
like it is playing to what she would want/need to do as mafia here
like even the interacting with me here ya know
but i don't know this conversation and also the claim post earlier feel like
like on some level she is simply saying 'it is okay medeia, i understand'

main worries about pooky are that the like 'battle pooky' interaction with random nurse felt maybe less all-in than i might expect from pooky who strongly believed that random nurse was scum there and the kinda like, willingness to just eliminate whoever here but i don't really think it's fair to say that's pooky-specific in this situation
but like i don't know have been a lot of opportunities for pooky to do the openwolf thing he loves to do here and he's kinda just been riding it out see where it goes
which sure town could just be off altogether here and then yeah seems fine to just say 'sure whatever' to anything i guess

but i guess that would probably also be the goal of it if she were scum here sigh

I was going to rescind my CT townread because I thought "CT engages and asks questions more as town" was valid but 539 involves villagery emotions imo
if your reads are just a vehicle to get present views to where they need to be or whatever you're doing a pretty good job of disguising that
it is kinda hard to compare your replace-in here to past ones since most of the ones i found were like 80+ page games at the time you replaced in
but at the very least it doesn't seem like you are still going to be catching up a week later like in schadd's game
