This looks like a vote for town cred rather than a vote based on actual scumhunting.
It's fairly early into D1, and you want solid reads on people? In a large?
Also, Cho was tied with TSO at
three
votes. I think I can deal with the guilt of putting someone at L-8 or so.
@Scripten
Please explain how you think that would get "town cred" and is not actual scum hunting.
(I fail to see your point of view) (I fail to see how you can hold your point of view.) (It feels made up.) Show me your perspective.
My explanation is literally right there in the quote.
Everything about Izar's vote was based on pedantic "You use words that I'm going to construe as scummy because I said they are" logic and hyperbole.
1 The top two wagons were on my top scumread and a town read. I don't (didn't) have a strong enough read on any other player to warrant starting another wagon.

Uh huh... Because nobody makes votes just to gain good favor with the rest of the town, right?
Izar hadn't finished reading the thread, and when you sheeped them, they even seemed surprised/possibly nervous.
2 That said, you are looking WAY scummier than they are right now.
So ready to vote PereV. (Btw uhm... muffin, your nickname for him MIGHT not be apropro.
) His (intentional(?)) misinterpretations and the fact that he's ready to vote Thor for discussing multiball are huge red flags. Does nobody else follow why the latter is so scummy?
Few things:
1)
My vote wasn't based at all on your WORDING of your reads.
Both you and Thor seem to think that I gave a shit about how you worded it. I didn't. What irked me about your reads is that they were the most bare bones reads ever. There was NOTHING of interest there that offered a glimpse of what is making your gears turn. Anyone can say "oh, they feel like scum. I think they're town. They seem town." I don't care about that. I want to know WHY you think that. What about their behavior has driven you to those conclusions? I've already clarified this and offered you an opportunity to explain your reads, and you still haven't done so, which I continue to find scummy.
445,
458
Would you care to elaborate now? Your answers won't be alignment-indicative, but they will at least establish a ground zero for your reads. Then I can catch you lying later like the scum you are. Thanks.
2) [begin segue]I was caught up on reading in the thread, but several of the posts I would have made if I'd been there at the time had become obsolete based on new information (e.g. Csareo replacement), so I wound up filtering or p-editing some of the things I was planning to say. My read on goodmorning is actually a good example of that
368. I had listed her as top townread for the first several pages, because I liked the thought process she was demonstrating, especially regarding Cho's neighbourhood reveal. But then as I caught up fully, I saw a few posts that raised some red flags. She still wound up being among top townreads, but perhaps a bit more even-keel. The wording in 368 kind of shows that it fell victim to p-edit, since I didn't really clarify why she was top townread initially.[end segue]
PeregrineV's sheep on my vote was unexpected and unusual, but it's kind of the only red flag I've seen from him. PeregrineV's play here seems consistent with what I've seen from Town!Peregrine, so I don't really have a scum read on his slot at this time. I think Peregrine has a tendency to appear pretty scummy as town, so my past experience with him has me trying to look past my initial misgivings of his play and look for alternative motivations that could come from town. I'm still undecided on how I feel about him, but it's definitely not a "he must be scum" feeling.

Heh. I like this. Not yet ready to sheep Thor, but this is a good post.
And this is a terrible post.
If I say "@Everyone - Scripten claimed scum. I caught him. You may sheep me now." will you think this is a good post too?
