Only people I can see being scum with Cass are Giga, and Creature, and I think they are both town.

i don't get cass/gigabyte tbh

is it because she didn't actually vote me when she was fishing for scumreads on me? only thing that really makes me think "i can see where this perspective is coming from" but other than that idgi

just felt like a discredit that was easy to back out of (only good thing about it was tone)
i no longer strictly go by they/them and honestly prefer she/her but they/them's fine if you're used to it i guess

Preflip associatives are trash, people.

First, flip scum. THEN find their partner.

but that's basically the summary of my D1 ISO... am i wrong about that :shifty: ?

on the second point is that just in reference to this conversation we're having or am i forgetting an example of something from D1?

this game is actually like a fever dream i literally cannot remember anything and rereading it and trying to relive it just gives me a headache and i can't focus on it (especially once casielle starts posting walls) so like me rereading the game is going to have to wait a week when i'm actually a functional human being

schadd_ do NOT bring that up oh my god (the cunning manipulator banner)

i cant see gbT in either town or scum

schroedinger alignment atm for me, theres a lot of townposts but i do not understand this schadd_ townread its inexplicable to me and the idea of radiant as scum is looking less and less likely as time wears on

i disagree with the reads radiant has but they were seeing the same exact issues i am with the gamestate before p much anyone else recognized there was a /problem/ with their approach

@rask: seriously tho if youre weakening your read on emotional grounds dont bother im not emotional about being scumread or having a looming hammer

i just know i have no defense left to give and so i dont see a way out of a ml here, and i do know that the townies on my wagon will at least get a fire under their ass when they see me flip green, so im ok with being a d2 ml. it helps my wincon because my critics have to reread my ISO from a town perspective

Because POE.

Rask is conf town.
I don't think Grey would bus Cass like this if they were both scum.
I don't think it makes sense for RC to join the game, and push for Cass lynch so hard, and then ask for a tracker when he has a reputation of bussing. Idk I guess he could be bussing but I still wouldn't understand the play.
I don't think Cass would lead the lynch of Schadd so hard on day 1 when most people were townreading Schadd.

So that leaves you and Creature.

Anyway I wasn't saying that Cass was scum and one of you are the scum partners. I was saying you and Creature are the only ones I can see making sense as the scum partners of Cass.

We have, but you don't want to bus.

Instead, you'd rather throw out scumreads with no reasons behind them and discredit your buddy's wagon.

yeah but im pretty sure theyll be coming back?

no one has good reads at the moment since its been pointed out that the townblocks have lurking scum. everyone agrees: cass is scummy feeling. they might not like the wagon but that just means theyre doing what town does, scumhunting, not that they are off the wagon for good

im approaching it fatalistically. best case scenario, d3 is a fresh start and ill have had a lot of time where im mostly putting out my reads and feeling my way around the gamestate visibly, either clearing myself outright or finding the scumpartners. worst case scenario, im right and i have gotten a full dayphase of stuff done without the wagon reforming on me while im playing like normal again, before i get a chance to really parse the changes. either way, good for town.

schadd_ flipping scum helps us more, but we can't tell where his scumbuddy voted during D1.

schadd_ flipping town gives us a good analysis to find scum analysing the D1 wagons.

yeah im not feeling this at all. i cant articulate the flaw in your argument (the in case he flips town part), but i can def feel theres a flaw in it. this doesnt parse right with a town wincon.

UNVOTE:

im considering your wagon. it looks juicier than schadd_'s about now. what the hell?
