Your seal of approval helps because you're either scum and correct or you're town and you're wrong. And if you're town then I trust your read on Klick waaaay more than I could ever trust my own
107 just seems like one of the most ScumPartners101 post to make ever, like it’s the most analysis PC does on anyone in this game and it results in a nothing read
I've only played with PC a few times but this is the least amount of analysis and engagement I've seen from him. I think there could be reasons for that outside of alignment but it is noteworthy to me still

This has the whole "scum including themselves in the PoE" vibe going and it also seems weird to me that he's so quick to clear me and Dann. Feels bad because he's right about me at least but it seems a little informed I guess. I could be confbiased here because I actively went into the ISO looking for reasons PC might be scum

In post 517, ceejayvinoya wrote:implosion I don't really vibe with either. I feel like he's engaging for the sake of engaging and I thought sometimes he goes out a bit of his way to make his posts a bit more vague? Granted this could just also be how he posts but I've been feeling like parsing implosion's posts sort of feels a bit harder than parsing other players
is this scummy? am not sure but its what got my attention
I genuinely have no idea how you get "engaging for the sake of engaging" from my ISO. I spent the first day or two doing basically nothing because I wasn't really into the game yet and felt no need to engage. And then yesterday I basically posted a mad dash series of posts immediately before boarding a plane while i was able to. I've searched for specific things from specific people. How the heck are you getting "engaging for the sake of engaging" from my ISO?
If my posts are vague or hard to parse, it's either an issue of the way I write not coming through well to you or possibly just like, me being obtuse for a joke. I'm always happy to clarify or elaborate if there's anything specific.
Dann what do you make of this interaction? It feels so hedgy and the bottom paragraph of implo's post feels weirdly amicable in a way that I often see from scum

Getting awful vibes from the worst here. Feels like he's trying to buddy up to Dann while simultaneously being very amicable with me. Part of me feels like he knows I'm town
*shrug* I'm nice. I don't townread you in this game and I have some questions about your play. Those two things are often a problem because it means I'm unlikely to be reading you without bias. It also doesn't mean you're evil irl so why should I not be amicable with you?
Realistically I'm baffled as to what your alignment is I'm just fairly short on POE and needing to do more homework.

the worst can you describe the dream that made you go from scum!implosion to town!implosion
uh it wasn't a dream exactly just, like, a sudden very strong feeling that the structural integrity of my argument was not what I'd once thought it was and when I removed that lens and reassessed implosion I felt like he was actually pretty earnest.
sorry this is really abstract but I do think the question was asked in a way that sort of, invited abstractness

a small point in favor of town!black is CeeJay's first read of the game being "maybe black town and not much else"
I think it's more likely that type of early read is more likely to be on a townie while you're waiting to see how the winds may blow re: your partner
genuinely ceejay seems far too interested in black and his read on her is super lazy. I'm notorious for calling ceejay lazy which is why I chose that word. but I'm like, just mulling over why he chose her specifically to focus on so much or whether it was a choice at all.
I do think ceejay missing klick being towny is probably noteworthy

You made some posts D1 that indicated you thought I was town. What changed?
I've seen you around enough that it's starting to feel surreal that this is kind of our first interaction
I woke up like 4 hours ago and have hardly been thinking about this game, and my read on you has changed twice since I woke up I don't think I can linearly identify what caused my mood shift at a particular time unless you can point me to the spot, I do remember having a few "oh shit what if black is town" moments on d1 and I was solidly just focused on other things for a solid chunk of the day

i think if i were to instant day vigilante kill someone right now based purely on the scum equity of each slot’s associations with flipped scum I would shoot Political Clout
without having done my reread same, unless I was in a weird mood, then I'd shoot black and use my new-found clout to out-clout PC.

can I get a picture of where you're at with everyone?
Probably not in a way that will satisfy you
Things are pretty fuzzy and I don't have a lot of conviction in my reads
I think you're probably town. It really feels like you're trying to figure things out and your reads are fluid in a way I would expect from a townie trying to figure things out. If you're deepwolfing then congratulations I guess
I have no clue how to read NM
I think scum is probably within the rest of the players. This group is really hard for me to sort through atm which is why I want to take a deeper look with the ceejay flip in mind
I got the chance to look at some implo interactions earlier and I didn't like what I saw
tw feels really political or something. I feel like that's the best way to describe it. I remember not liking him earlier in the game too but I'm struggling with the possibility that I might just be scumreading his personality and style of posting
PC and Klick would probably be at the top of my scum pile if that area exists. PC's lack of engagement in the game is kinda worrying me a little. Him following me onto implosion is part of that. It kinda feels like he's on the outside looking in
Klick is just hard for me to read and I've been struggling with that one all game. I'm hoping my deep dive will help but I doubt it
We're on weirdly similar wavelengths except I think you're distinctly apolitical, I just haven't worked out whether the heart on your sleeve is pure yet
