I think I'd like being a Serial Killer better, but so far I haven't had the pleasure (closest I've been was solo'ing a game as the last scum offsite, and I had an unusual game mechanic provide a huge help).
Honesty would have served you better.
Quilford: Because it feels like this player list is really easily PoE-able. You, ETL, and probably serra are town. Now I think Patrick looks town (although he's the one person who I think could really fuck us over if he's scum). Mara looks kind of genuine, except she's sort of in the same general fuzzy bunny scumbag as, e.g., Malakittens in Wicked who posts a lot of nice posts about safer topics, so sure, she can be in my extended lynch pool. But that leaves Alchemist, BPC, and BBmolla. BBmolla is really readable, so we'll know one way or another soon.
And that's without any super-powered innocent children claiming. And without roles that ensure if scum is lynched D1, the game is broken.
I prefer BPC's later posts to his earlier ones, and admittedly, he's someone I can see being middle-of-the-road and overly nice as either alignment. But his earlier posts come across as pretty much the textbook safe, agreeable, "I'm going to say both good and bad things about everyone to keep myself open to lynch them" scumbag. His stances feel middle-of-the-road in a calculated (not sure if that's the best word choice) rather than an indecisive way. Regfan and Empire are annoying and think BPC is town, though. Boo.
I was honest. I prefer being scum because it's usually more enjoyable, but I'm a stronger player as Town, and from a tactical standpoint making me Town is the better move.
I also don't get how people are scumreading me while Townreading BPC. We're doing the same things, just BPC has more words.

Reads I don't understand here: ETL and Serra. Serra has made like 2 posts, neither with much content. Why the quick town read? And you said you think ETL is fine before, but why? What do you think about the arguments brought up against ETL's points earlier and do you think her posting could be read as scummy then?
@Mina, He's null to me. There are people who take a little while longer to get reads in a game, and he hasn't done anything I would consider alignment indicative.
If Quilford were scum, then 1) he would barely be posting, and 2) what he would post would be a lot less carefree and relaxed. My team has seen him as scum. He's town unless he took a level in Machiavelli over the summer. (But frankly, he just reads as pretty genuine anyway.)
ETL hit town rediculously early and serras response to me was highly favorable and it's difficult seeing that actually coming from a town perspective.
I thought your team thinking I picked scum tokens were weird, though empires analysis of my play and behavior was somewhat accurate and I feel like it was a solid move from you guys and, from what I understand of his play, it's very unlikely that he is scum thus, it is very unlikely that you are scum.
Patrick, I think looked townie enough but could be scum if my top three is completely off, and it seems like it might be.
I don't know anything of quils meta so all I have to go off of is what's going on in thread. His pushes were kinda awkward and still kinda is and though his posts seen reasonable enough, I kinda feel like they lack originality and the one push that was kind of original can also kinda explain how he's played so far (read, etl being knew jerky)
I also did shortly contemplate him being scum with alch but with current interactions, it seems very unlikely and am worried that he just comes off as scummy and scum might be taking advantage of that

In that first paragraph, are you saying you're Townreading ETL and scumreading Serra?
