So are you gonna actually try to sort me or what? You've played with me and you know how I post and how it's always 'suspicious'.

Nope, not at all, I've actually been townreading you for a while now.
I wonder if MH coached Italiano at all or if that was just rock solid scum play start to finish.

I don’t feel like this specific town could have beaten this scum strategy played as strongly as it was.

I'm frustrated with myself that I can't get any sort of read on you.

Mala's conviction is because she believes (correctly) that her believing something strongly will get her townread.

Mala knows that scumreading me is an easy way to get herself townread.
Mala knows that the scumread is shit, but she is pushing it hard because she knows it looks town.

But the read is wrong, she knows it, and she is bullshitting it because she is relying on YOU defending her for having made it.

DGB I think I actually get where you're coming from, here.

I can

I can

something in which I understand could

like scum. I THINK I see what you see, I just disagree about it making Aisa scum.

But while I think your solving here is genuine because I can see the process behind it--I don't think either of those slots are actually scum.

I

your reads there.

I think you're wrong about them tho.

Oh my gosh Mastina.
You are going to be insufferable this game arent you.
The last time I scumread you and didn’t back off you were scum but I never got you killed or eliminated.

I’m trying really really hard not to think you’re threatened by me and want me out.

But it’s very hard right now
No matter how high the stakes, sooner or later you're just gonna have to go with your gut.
And maybe, just maybe, that'll take you right where you were supposed to be.

Great so Mastina is going to tunnel me this whole game even tho she claims she’s a super star at reading me, but we all know that’s wrong.

Oh, that'd be Krazy's Anime uPick--and it wasn't Elsa's idea; it was mine.
I've had precisely four mason claims blow up in my face before due to the mason being scum.
I've had triple that help give the town a massive advantage in the game.

The mason gambit is, explicitly, a
gambit
. It's never risk-free. But the rewards are always higher than the risk.

A weird combination of little reasons. I kind of wanted to see how a vote would affect Kowahbunga's catch-up. I'm keen to see where the Italiano pressure goes and so will wait before sharing my full thoughts there but I'm not really feeling the scumread there and Bellaphant also independently reads him as town so I wanted a different place for my vote. And lastly maybe if I tilt my head and squint at it funny I could see Kowahbunga's one post as scummy. Maybe.

Also on your Ydrasse thoughts, despite the fun of TownHunting Inc. I still feel.. cautious about my townread on Ydrasse, because I don't think anything is outside the realm of Ydrasse-scum possibility. But I'm also not so sure that I would be a pocket-target for Ydrasse as scum, and my experience with Ydrasse-town is that content comes out in occasional golden nuggets rather than constantly. The reason for the Mala townread is actually one of the things I liked most. I thought it was a good point that Mala's conviction has been spontaneous rather than in response to pressure and needing to town it up.
This feels like scum attempting to grab some low hanging fruit (me) and start a wagon. Then gets called out on it, but like not even pressed or anything, just someone trying to find out what's up, and in a panic they spill their "evil" "plan". If they really wanted to gauge how I responded to a vote during my catch up... WHY would you say it out loud 7 posts after I mentioned I'm going to catch up tomorrow? It's like they felt they had to explain themselves which is very weird to me.

I'd lim here or Koba today and be happy with it.
What is your plan to achieve a lim that you would be happy with?
