talk about black? i feel like i'm struggling to mentally form a read there
This is weird because this is like the 3rd time you've repeated something I've said but for some reason you're having a hard time forming a read on me?
I questioned Roden's vote on Appearance, said Appearance feels kinda townie to me, and then asked sheep to elaborate on his read of me
Do you think it's suspicious that we're thinking along the same lines or something?
to answer their question it seems like extremely level 0 analysis that a wagon getting to e-1 would react in a certain away especially because the slot is clearly an alt with experience.

no? if i thought it was suspicious i'd have said so. i don't have a read on you. i don't put much weight into someone having similar thoughts than me here because i don't think the takes i've had are super complex or anything that half-decent scum would have trouble with coming up themselves. do you think i should be townreading you for it?
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.”

bestie it was page 9 what kinda profound analysis do you expect of me here
also my read was made in mind with appearance being an alt with some experience, if they were a complete noob i could see them freezing up under pressure but i don't think scum with experience reacts like that

It's not that your analysis needs to be profound its that I think your analysis is bad and I don't think town!you believes in it.
Why not vote here? I'm down for a Datisi wagon but I can't help but worry that 176 might apply here...
This is actually super slimy. Or at least you're completely misunderstanding me, whether thats intentional or not I don't know.
I think that it should be pretty clear that "I think x might be scum" is not "subtly framing things with words to create a narrative on someone" I am literally expressing a read here.
Like I don't see how black actually sees my comment about how the way you describes things can shape narratives and think "this applies to someone expressing a read concretely."
They're so clearly not the same thing that its a ridiculous comment on face.

I interpreted it as you throwing shade on slots and letting others push the narrative for you, then I felt like I saw an example of that in real time. Maybe I'm misinterpreting a little
You realize that the way you're interpreting requires you to think that my statement applies to literally any time someone expresses a read without voting, right?
You have to realize there's no way that's what I was talking about right?
If you're town please reread my initial statement. I am talking about the words we use to describe things which create a thread narrative. A better example would be how I just used the word "slimy" to apply to your post.
The words we use shape narrative. We create thread perception of other players by how we describe them without the accountability of expressing how we actually feel. I am not talking about expressing a read on someone concretely.
I also think your initial reaction to me was kind of bizarre. Like, you're clearly aware that I scum read appearance. Why was your reaction to me expressing a potential scum read somewhere else to try to shade me? Why would you expect me to shift off of a wagon that I am on on someone who I think is scum to start a random counter wagon on a different scum read? It seemed like you were trying to shade my actions without thinking very much about what town me would actually do in a situation where I scum read the person I am voting but also am starting to develop a different scum read?

I thought I was seeing self-proclaimed scum!Shea tactics in real time and I wanted to point out my worries

I guess I wasn't fully aware of how confident you were in your Appearance SR. It makes sense for you to stay put if you think Appearance is scummier
I didn't realize Shea was confident in his appearance SR either actually. Shea, what about Appearance's answers to you yesterday made you decide to keep your vote on them?
I don't agree with anyone who has said the response seemed townie to me it seemed extremely preservationist and I don't think any of what they've done this game is helpful for finding scum.

I can't imagine why this would be about me. We have never played a completed game together first off. As far as I know, the only time we've interacted with each other is in an ongoing game, which a) we can't talk about, b) I replaced out of in twelve posts, and c) as far as I know my replacement is still playing and thus you have no idea what alignment.
VOTE: Appearance
This post pings me a lot. The game appearance is talking about ended a while back, so the first and last points are invalid. And while i don't disagree 12 posts is not enough to tell someones playstyle, someone making an assumption based on that would not make me scumread them for it. This just seems like an overreaction

btw, i'm vt but that probably should be obvious as i would've claimed earlier if i was cop.
I would like to know what reasonable basis you had on claiming this. You're on e-1 but under no significant elim threat. All this does is if you're not scum narrow down the kill window of scum.
