You're right. I'm keeping my mouth shut to avoid distracting from the wagon on you.

Dividing town's attention is the best way to let scum off the hook.

I don't see RC and Cass partnered together, even if RC has the fame of superbussing. Though, I feel Cass is the town and RC is the scum.

hey actually if this is not a sarcastic question

can you (and RC) give thoughts on my creature meta?

in no way, shape, or form does this read as a scumgame of creature

like after Bee Movie mafia i'm confident i can pick out scum!creature after 3-5 non-IC posts and creature's ISO still reads as a town!creature one

if i'm wrong i'd like to know why at least so i'm not giving a hard townread undeservedly

i realize that's one game but remember i skimmed through all of his micro games to make my RVS vote for that game so I'd like to think i have SOME familiarity with creature's personality

if this is scum!creature then he has significantly improved his ability to mimic his townplay and i'm honestly impressed

also creature if it's not casielle who would rc's theoretical partner be

mostly because i have at least some reason to think all of the other slots are town (rc included, if i squint really hard i can see how he might be town but his explanation for 921 still gives me flashbacks to my newbie so ???)

i brought it up early in the game where i caught him with it though and it still worked so idk

no offense to creature because i think highly of his townplay but i honestly don't think he's able to camouflage his scumplay even after his tells are directly pointed out

do you think the point though are wrong/not applicable?

He's played with me before and he knows I would be interested in sorting him at the beginning so him putting a bit of effort there to fool me is reasonable

The game I played where he was scum he did enough to make him not a d1 thing and then killed me n1

I really don't care about other people's assessments of other people's meta, especially when they might be scumpartners.
If I were to link every game where someone was 100% SURE SOMEONE WAS TOWN CUZ FRIENDS AND META and they were dead wrong and after game it's like WELP I FUCKED THAT UP SRY then the same shit happens game after game.
I do not townread Creature and I am not going to write them off as town because you say that they are town.

@Raskolnikov Grey is an alt with someone who I have experience with and I don't want to go into any more detail on the subject.
2019 stats: Town WR 76.7%, overall WR 81.667%, 1 scum defeat involving a major mod error in lylo vs 8 scum wins.

there's a difference between saying "guys trust my read" and "tell me where i'm wrong" though

there's no point in telling someone to trust my read because that doesn't progress the gamestate at all

asking you to explain why your read is different actually does and is what i'm actually looking for

False, and that is a terrible assumption.

As for Schadd, he is obviously attempting to solve the game in a large number of posts. His read progression and play aligns near exactly. I do not see that from anyone else, including Matt.

The answer to where you're wrong, assuming town, is that Creature knows exactly what you're looking for to townread him and did exactly that.

Sorry Grey but I'm not a literal dumbfuck and it's really obvious.

i mean fair point

but what about his play is scummy to you? this is where I'm trying to get this line of questioning to go
