I don’t think he’s really solving in it throughout, and his tales have been very safe things to say — look at where he talks about his shot or his TR on haven. I don’t think he wants to rock the boat

I also just sort of generally think the game doesn’t feel solved, and my current set of scumreads are the people who I think just sort of faded away very quickly while having done nothing of substance vs the shit posters and obviously bad looking players (porkens and norwee mostly)
Menalque, is this the case you wanted me to go back and read? It doesn't look like much to me.

"his iso is very empty" -- guilty as charged
"making more of a conscious effort to project town" -- where am I doing this?
"his tales have been very safe things to say" -- maybe? I'm not going to make up some extra-spicy takes just to demonstrate Effort if I don't actually have those reads, sorry.

I'm not going to claim I've made any MEGA TOWNTELLS here but this case really just comes down to I haven't done anything tryhard yet, if people want to execute me for that then fine but given that you know I have no problem tryharding as scum this just looks like you think I'm an easy push.

(1) I think it’s like the general vibe I get from your ISO? As in, you don’t seem to have a “give a fuck” attitude but you also don’t seem invested in the game, so I feel like it matters to you how you’re perceived but you’re not being like pro-actively solvey

(2) Okay, I guess, I just feel like town!you generally has some more takes than what you’ve given so far and this reminds me more of scum!you in that newbie which brings me to

(3) i know you can effort as scum, but I also felt like in that game you generally didn’t until you needed to — like it was reactive tryharidng in response to the gamestate rather than tryharding as like unprompted. I also just don’t think you’re this passive as town

(4) why would I need to push you as an easy push? Unless you want to argue that I’m scumpartners with either of porkens/norwee and I’m trying to keep the heat off them

But in the case of (4) I think it’s odd to pass up the cred I would have got from finishing the bus and switching to TRing them

Hi, the wagons are looking like umlaut or norwee, so you should probably decide who you’d prefer to flip between the two

i'd be lying if i said that i'm not slowly starting to feel that Menlaque Paranoia™ in my bones

but saying that now makes me sound disingenuous

big sad
I will straight up disregard all reason if you have a PR dream again. You can come back and be like, “I dreamt that Locke is a N2 Bulletproof Multitasking Cop and Self-Targeting Doctor,” and I will go, “Okay, Locke kill it is then.”

Norwe hasn’t said much but I don’t see much that’s suspicious there. I feel like there’s more mafia on that wagon than the one on umlaut but you know. I can’t read people.

I actually totally missed it until now but now I see it and I hate it

Where’s the paranoia coming from, my positioning on the wagons?

I just don't see how you think I care how I'm perceived based on anything I've written. Point to it?

I had actual serious "reads" within hours of my replacing in to the game you're thinking of. I don't find making up reads very hard at all, my usual scum MO is to just build up large amounts of towncred by "doing stuff," and I can invite you to read pretty much any of my scum games to confirm that. That said, you also haven't seen me in games full of hyperposters which is where I'm at my worst because I see ten new pages and just go "ugggggggghhhhhhh" and put off reading them and don't want to try and post without having read them. (Probably that means I shouldn't have joined a short-deadline game at all but here I am and I'm not replacing out so I'm going to just hope I do better tomorrow)

I don't know man, why does scum ever push anyone in particular? Is there someone else you think you'd be advocating to execute if you were scum?

feels like kinda you're explaining to him why he's scum in a way that you're trying to get on his good side and explain yourself???

which as i'm typing it out kinda smells like bullshit but

tell me why it's bullshit

I’m quite into norwee meta recently and I think there’s a certain level of detachment from scum!norwee which I see here

It’s not just the fact his iso is bad exactly

Because I’m trying to engage with him in good faith in the event that I’m wrong about him being scum?

Sometimes I’m very dismissive, that’s true. Sometimes it’s because I’m super sold on the person being scum, sometimes I’m exaggerating a little to get people to go along with me etc, but I don’t think me treating umlaut in good faith as I’m engaging with him is something that should be worrying about me

Pretty sure this comes down to differing site meta.
