Is this because of the power-role claim? Because I don't know how things work here but I'm not going to read anything into that yet. From what I saw the roles are not public.

Ah okay. So basically because you think vivax is town, it's warping your view.

So from my point of view, if vivax is scum wouldn't it be possible for him to soft defend me as town if he thinks I'm going to be eliminated anyway?
He hyper-reacts to stimuli.

I really strongly believe that I'm able to read him from a long history of playing with him and as naive as it sounds he's posted that I get him in the thread as well.

For me you were in the same spot where you placed me in your list post (Grack who?). You weren't really involved with the game prior to this push, and knowing that the push and the reasoning behind it is wrong is enough for me to move you from null to scum lean.
Fair. But I think I've been active in spurts and not just right now. It's possible I could be paranoid on vivax.

I mean you're trying to give an argument here for why you should be allowed to not participate in the game. You're trying to say, why bother moving anything forward since I might be scum and misleading you all?! I mean you can trust that we've all considered that possibility.

Yes you can make up reads, but if you actually commit to them and put them down here, that's what actually helps us to figure out what you are. The fact that you're trying to create a space that is amenable to you not having to offer useful information, not having to move the game forward at all, not having to offer anything that helps us sort out your alignment, is only deepening my suspicion of you.
I'm just someone who takes awhile to come up with reads in general. You can see any of my past town games and see this as fact if you really need to.

Is this in order? can you give some brief explanations.

Really I thought you would have got more out of the dann/dp/luca situation than a bunch of null reads tbh.

Why am I null when I have pushed your number 1 and number 2 scum reads?
No if it were up to me that conversation would have ended after 1 or 2 posts rather than 4-5 pages.

If those reads are actually right then you will rise into the town group. I wasn't very interested in your Dann case based off him pushing/backing off of you and I'm weary that
you are not coming off as townie to the rest of the players as you usually do as town.
Wait, do you think I am usually universally town read as town grack?
Have you even been eliminated as town in the games that I've hosted? I legitimately don't remember but my gut says no.

In this game you're being placed on the same level as me by lots of people lol. (Funniest thing to me was OutofOrder building me up as a threat that if I'm not eliminated early I'll slip through to the end.)
Im hard to lynch, but I tend to get into huge arguments with active players, like marv, koshi, rayn and get called scum a lot. then scum tend to jump on at some point,and fail to get off when they should. It's my number one scum hunting tactic.

I struggled in obs last game so much because most of my reads are generated through conflict and pressure.

I think you should know this tho.
I think more what tends to happen is that you and those players aren't even on the table for day 1 and then arguments between you guys blow up in the mid-game.

I really don't care though. You're not likely to be yeeted today and you know it.

But I also need to understand why you are taking the positions you are taking. Because I know my alignment, and I know my playstyle, and I know that you know my playstyle I like to test you there.
