[JacksonVirgo]

Pagetop?

[JacksonVirgo]

Nice

[TemporalLich]

that being said, those posts were before Klazam made some very towny posts

pedit: idk either

[furtiveglance]

Furtive. You pop in with some bangers but what's your current stance as a whole.

I'll be honest I kinda just ctrl+F'd my own name instead of reading up fully

What's the raging debate now?

I'd rather not spoonfeed you, I'd prefer if you read on your own

Ok

[JacksonVirgo]

wow you sure know a lot about tells

Actually no, it's a common trope with Psyche just attacking peoples character than any arguments

[Random Nurse]

another lead rist, this one was formed by skimming ISOs:

[Town]

Shrek - Very good town momentum

In what way exactly?

I will point to 218 as the main post that shows town momentum, with 225 also having momentum

...

Hm..

[JacksonVirgo]

I do think Shrek is townie, but putting him that high is a huge stretch in my eyes

[Random Nurse]

I do think Shrek is townie, but putting him that high is a huge stretch in my eyes

This I agree with.

[Random Nurse]

I was just wondering like, is that all it takes to be on the top of your list?

[JacksonVirgo]

Psyche, also if you are Town. Talk with me, don't get all angy and fight with me cuz that'll get us nowhere.

[TemporalLich]

it's either Shrek or Klazam for top read... and I still don't like Klazam's opening

[JacksonVirgo]

Klazams opening was not

that

bad in retrospect.

[TemporalLich]

I'm slightly hesitant to place Klazam at top read as Klazam has been top scumread at one point

[Shrek]

another lead rist, this one was formed by skimming ISOs:

[Town]

Shrek - Very good town momentum
Klazam - Excellent posts after the two opening posts
Merlyn - Somewhat townie posts
JacksonVirgo - Good at pushing
BBmolla - Really hasty claim that is unlikely to be scum
Naerys - Towny vibes, I think
ZZZX - Somewhat towny vibes
Random Nurse - Slightly towny vibes
camelCasedSnivy - hard to sort, very weak townlean
the worst - lorem ipsum
davesaz - good at blending in
Save The Dragons - hard null
shaddowez - lack of content
Anyone not specifically listed - hard null due to lack of content
Flavor Leaf - impossible to sort
iamveryhappy - what
Hu Tao- eh idk, hard to sort but weak scumlean
biancospino - very performative
furtiveglance - still scummy vibes here
Psyche - gonna go back to my gut feeling of Psyche being scum, the posts don't have town mindset anymore

[Scum]

why is zzzx so high, his iso is like flat nothing and he was part of the sheep group on the FL wagon

obviously its a goated list because i'm top but you and i have like barely interacted TL

[JacksonVirgo]

I'm slightly hesitant to place Klazam at top read as Klazam has been top scumread at one point

I don't think Klazam deserves anywhere near the top spot either. I'm not really sure how you got the two of them that high at all

[JacksonVirgo]

I'm thinking furtive/psyche/camel contains at least one wolf.

[TemporalLich]

both shrek and klazam are my confident townreads

they have made excellent posts

pedit: that sounds like an excellent PoE

[JacksonVirgo]

Wait, temp you have me high cuz I'm good at pushing? What do you mean by that?

[TemporalLich]

Wait, temp you have me high cuz I'm good at pushing? What do you mean by that?

you are good at getting reads and sparking momentum

idk how else to explain it

[JacksonVirgo]

Yeah that's fine, thank you. Wasn't sure if you meant just me pushign people, which I would have thought weird to TR someone for. But that's good

[Random Nurse]

I think TL's reads lists merit further scrutiny.

[JacksonVirgo]

Which spots don't you like RN

[Psyche]

I also believe this argument of yours to be disingenuous and malicious. You give me a low bar "did you think they were scummy", which clearly I did as I directly called them a wolf at that point. I answer your question, and then you decide to call

me

disingenuous? Even if I had a weak scum-lean on them, I'd say yes to you and you'd pull this on me. That feels like you laid out a trap on me rather than actually genuinely wanting more information on my thought process

So, like, for read purposes, I don't particularly care at all how strong or weak your scumlean on TL was.
What I care about is whether you [are willing to say] you thought you believed what you were saying when you typed 303.
As you say, it was indeed very likely that you'd reply yes to my question given your posts here, but it wasn't guaranteed.
It's not uncommon at all at this state of the game for people to contrive justifications for votes as a pressure/reaction-collecting tactic.
Interpreting your 303 is easier when that possibility is ruled out.
But the only way to rule out that possibility was to have you do it for me without telegraphing too obviously that this was what I was trying to do.
So I went for a seemingly throwaway question with a low barrier to entry.
Even though the Q doesn't directly probe the information I was seeking, it created a context where you'd probably volunteer that you were merely reaction testing TL if that's what you were really doing in 303, especially since you weren't voting TL at the time.
I guess I can now imagine an even better way I could've done it, but otoh I got what I wanted. And also this exchange.

Actually, I wanna prod this a little bit more.
What posts of mine strike you the other way?

419 is the big one. I had a more positive feeling about your shift from and subsequent ambivalence around TL in posts like 415 than I do now but they altogether build confidence that you're someone who's top goal right now is to get correct opinions about who is scum. It's just that 303 doesn't give the same vibe, particularly when reaction testing is ruled out.

[Psyche]

wow you sure know a lot about tells

Actually no, it's a common trope with Psyche just attacking peoples character than any arguments

character..?

[JacksonVirgo]

Alright thank you for clarifying that. I still personally feel you didn't do it in a way that captures my true thought process but it doesn't ultimately matter.
