283feels like the kind of easy thing scum look for to poke at, and does not even come with a alignment comment on Spiff. Just poking at word choice.

Something about 349 feels fake to me.

I also feel like her interactions with the dethy reveal 993, 1016, 1036 felt like posts of an outside observer, rather then someone whose wincon necessitates needing in figuring things out.

(On the townie side, I did like their town read on Oblivion in 282).
ok reading this i feel like you've made a case for why stuff from firebagel *can* come from scum but not really why it *does* comes from scum

I think the closest thing you have here is the "outside observer" stuff but I think I'm kinder to that because I have felt like an outside oberserver for a large part of this game and I'm not sure it's really alignment indicative and maybe just more indicative of the type of stuff that interests a particular player
I was not stating that the things could come from scum, so much as I expect it to be more likely to come from scum.

is deflecty, in a way that reads to me as self conscious. Focused on undercutting the point being made by morph, rather then engaging with morph.

is finding something to poke at, which serves the purpose of looking like you are solving, but it missed the part where it actually sorted.

did not read as natural, so much as a post that is designed to look like what the poster thinks their town self would think about the game.

You're strongly townreading morph, right?
Yes, primarily because of ffery’s interaction with Luke earlier on and that their dethy realization and surrounding discussion sounded like uninformed Town eager to figure out the best way to move forward given that information
I'm not sure how to word it exactly but some of your interactions with morph feel kinda weird to me, from your side - you're trying really hard to get them to townread you and it feels kinda weird

yeah, I mean I like *get* it

and it maybe helps that I'm pretty sure I know who Firebagel is and I think she tends to make these types of posts as both alignments and with that calibration I view them as overall very not self-conscious this game

I think the one thing I will say is that 283 isn't really trying to look productive, it's not trying to look like it's doing something. yes it's kind of a useless post but I don't think firebagel is trying to give the impression she's solving or sorting

i don't think 106 is deflecty as much as jokey while still trying to figure someone out

While I don't think that I am particularly swayed by Dann's bagel posting, I do get town vibes from dann from the conversation .
