You're assuming they're always playing with reason in mind.
Is it not just easier, and more infinitely more likely, to believe that they're just messing around because the game just started?

And you're welcome to have whatever read you want on them. Like I don't have a read on FL at all yet, but you town-read them based on convoluted TWTBW logic that has no real logical base. And now you appear to be trying to tell me you just don't SR them, which I already knew and is not really what you were saying earlier. You were initially saying you town-read them based on specific logic that I deemed to be wrong but TRing and not scum-reading someone are very different.

I do townread Flavor Leaf though, with the self-vote being the main impetus for a Flavor Leaf townread (I doubt scum would self-vote early Day 1)

Scum in my experience are
more
likely to self-vote than Town, Town primarily want to find wolves. Scum doesn't and they're more playing for self-image and control. Attempting to appear less self-preservistic with a self-vote is not unheard of at all and earlier in the game is the least risky time to do so.

I don't follow your logic, at all. In fact I believe it's going the entirely wrong route.

I don't see how that matters, outside of maybe countering the "Town primarily want to find wolves" part. Which sure, but that's Town. Scum
still
play for more self-image and control than Town would so this all still stands.

Scum needing to scum-hunt never takes from the fact that a strong part of what they need to do is focusing on self-image and control. Which was the main point I was making

It's not the priority though, is it?

Surely FL would be more motivated to scumhunt as town than as scum?

To make my own position clear, I'm leaning scum more than town, but I can also see them doing it as town.

No it doesn't. That's what I'm saying.

Game-start is the
least
risky time to self-vote. And it's more likely that this type of play (if done for a reason) comes from scum who is focused on self-image and
they want to appear less self-preservistic
. Meaning voting themselves in a low-risk point in the game gets the best of both worlds. It doesn't ultimately but that's the general idea behind why I've seen it come from scum much more than from Town, who would not have the self-image/control in their agenda as much.

I don't really want to discuss this any further, it's meaningless at the end of the day. I just want you to be able to think logically and your logic is actually backwards to me.

excellent, is he?

Kind of disingenuous to ask that when he only posted once when I made the post you quoted.

I'll have to see how he posts throughout the next couple Days.
