Conq: you, sir, are great at being town.

Scum!Wisdom would have an easier time finding reasons because they know I'm town.
So then he would be less likely to miss reasons...right?
Wisdom being more likely to do something doesn't mean he'll do it all the time.
If not sharing reads/reasons and dodging questions is considered to be a "playstyle" and not scummy, then I don't get how to play mafia. It would be so easy to play as mafia with this "playstyle."
Still voting Wisdom.

You gotta play to win, Wisdom's playstyle may have traits that would benefit a scum game but that doesn't mean that he got a scum role PM. I'm not reading Wisdom as scum overall right now, so the fact that you might call something he does scummy doesn't matter at the moment.

I don't understand what you mean by this. Even with the correction.

Okay, and the negative attention happens because? And who would care about looking town when you can get away with a playstyle like that.

Town can
look
scummy too, so the fact that Wisdom has traits that
look
scummy doesn't mean that he's scum. I don't think that Wisdom is scum, so him doing something that
looks
scummy doesn't matter. If my read on Wisdom changes, I might view his play through different lenses, but at the moment I'm leaning town on him.

Wisdom drew more negative attention on himself while he had suspicion and the start of a wagon against him, which is behavior more likely to come from town than scum.

What??? "the fact that Wisdom has traits that look scummy" /thread. You're implying you agree with me on my points.
Sure, town can look scummy. Scum can look towny too. That doesn't take away from the fact that Wisdom is being scummy.

I was implying that the negative attention happened because he's being scummy. Wagons happen on either alignment.

Being blatantly anti-town early in the game is basically guaranteed to draw attention to yourself, so it's usually not a good scum tactic. Either wisdom fucked up really badly or he's town. And don't say that was his plan all along cause...no, it wasn't.

Scum!Wisdom would have an easier time finding reasons because they know I'm town.
a) A reason to townread wisdom
b) A reason to scumread wisdom
c) Other ____________________
Normally people don't just point out things for the sake of them. If it's not relevant to people's reads on wisdom then I don't see why you mentioned it.
Then you're missing the point entirely. What I was trying to say is that scum!wisdom wouldn't be likely to miss obvious reasons to townread you, and therefore would probably say that tenshii being scum makes you town.
But your response makes more sense in that context, I guess
Tenshii's play, based upon a quick skim, feels more newb indicative than scummy.
I'd say I like this better.
VOTE: Creature
And then I realistically could see Wisdom as potential partner due to early softbussing among other things.
Note
: I'll be away most of the weekend. VLA through Sunday evening, possibly into Monday, but it'll be approaching 48 hours minimum. Apologies for the one-off; life has just kinda... Sucked, y'know?
