Do you make a habit of trying to vibe read players you don't have much experience with?
I've played with you once in Pooky's PYP game about a year ago. I replaced into a scum slot early day 2. You replaced in much later. I was playing a competent scum game until I came down with covid. I think I can be vibe read by players who know me, but it's going to take more experience than one game with me. Especially that game.
in such contexts i have a habit of making the read and then not putting much weight into it which is also what i did here

I’m sad that I can’t ask FIR what they expect from RH, when RH has posted so little so that they could adjust but FIR might be scum so why am I sad but I want them to explain is because I badly want to understand RH town and distinguish it from RH scum.
Also, if RH can’t read me they can’t read anyone.
*nods*
you just seem naturally towny tbh. which is what i meant by not being able to read you.
if you were scum here, i'd get pocketed pretty easily because i can't tell the difference between 'bell being genuinely towny' and 'bell imitating his towngame to appear towny'.

If bell was sitting in front of you but was like ten years old, would you read his posts and ruffle his hair and smile at him?
If so he's town. If not murder with extreme prejudice.

i think the main thing is that he's like. just. putting stuff out there. no fear. sayin whats on his mind and what he's gonna do
as scum i think he struggles a lot more to think about what he "should" say and the self-consciousness limits the kinds of things that he tends to post
it's not a strong read bc i do also find him fairly hard to get a handle on but i think so far it feels like how he does when he's town

i gave actual real effort into putting my thoughts to paper and no one paid attention but the scum who came in to defend hisself =(
I read it. And I appreciate it.
My pretty limited experience with STD is that it seems like he approaches every game a little differently and I don't even know if he prefers scum or town roles. You're using an interesting lens, but it's not one I can use. I haven't spent much time trying to figure him out yet.
You're being an enjoyable part of this game so far. I think this design actually leans somewhat toward enjoyment, at least in this phase.
It scares me a little that I keeping thinking about your posts as coming from town.
Amid the pressure of great events, a general principle gives no help.

RH slightly up.
Fir I’m neutral on.
You and Cabd remain the same.
FB still town but some head scratchers now. I should probably just town bin them to spite them if they’re actually town.
I’m not trying to read LLD while they may or may not be baked, their acknowledgement request I’m not sure if they’re serious or if it’s manipulative or what I’m even looking at. You responded to it though, such a nice lady.
STD: they’ve been entirely unreadable except when they said they missed Cephrir which made me do a “I should maybe try to write a book about whether STD can be read on this one post”
It was surprising, that he missed Cephrir or even brought it up. I guess someone said something about them seeming comfortable which I guess might be true.

it just seemed like a dead end because it was pretty much entirely covered already in my post

but i also do think ffery wasn't passing the vibe check so idk. i don't really have a baseline for ffery so im not sure if that's a good way to read her
"ffery not vibing but idk if vibe reads are good bc i don't have a lot of experience with her"
"hey fire, you don't have a lot of experience with me. don't you think vibe reads are a bad approach?"
"see above"
it feels more like wanting to get a thought expressed about how the read should be discounted than like a probe that would actually lead anywhere productive because it's just restating what i already said. idk it just seems oddly lacking in insiciveness
