Sorry if its unclear, i want you to convince me of your read on them.

Im tired of ignoring the firebagel slot because of how hard it is to read them so i want to see if they have anything at all T_T
Well that's certainly a take :lol:

It's not halfway through day one of a ridiculously large, lengthy game and you're expecting to have good reads on everyone? I find that notion baffling.

Actually I'm the one who's starting all these minor wagons because I am somewhat actively scuttling around and checking under the rock while the rest of you do your things.

Correction:

I just vote. The rest seem to follow for some reason. People love following cute hermit crab around, apparently.

Thanks, I think you can join the townread club now

They're town for prying into what you were asking about and coming to an appropriate conclusion, Marci :wink:

if shello was not a hydra, I would feel more strongly about this, but I had a minor alarm bell go off seeing the slot vote gypyx, but move the vote one hour later to cakez when doing so would keep the brian/cakex wagons tied, and there having been no new content from either gypyx or cakez.

But I did see that it was different heads that cast each vote.

I did.


I saw voting cakez come right after 's vote on vote on Brian, and realized that it kept the votes tied. I went to check who they were voting before, and did a control+f "vote:" starting from the bottom.


And seeing their most recent vote was on cakez, I assumed that was the same vote that started my look into their iso, and then saw that their prior vote was on on gypyx.

And so, I juxtaposed those votes onto the thread that I had just been reading, when actually those votes are in context of the thread that I have not read yet.

Actually, when ydra used the vote to tie the wagon, they were not voting for a while as of .

Which, I don't think is as troublesome.

I legitmately don't understand how you can like both wagons if you sr me. Do you not think me voting brian would mean something in scum!me world?
It could mean so many things

It could mean I’m wrong on you, it could mean I’m wrong on then, it could mean you are bussing, it could mean you are both different factions of scum, it could mean you’re both town

This is a 22 player game and I’m not ever going to get anywhere if I refuse to vote with anyone I think might be scum

I don’t understand why you think this is strange or why I should come to a strong conclusion due to you voting one of these wagons

And like I struggle to believe this is an actual town thought you have
To the contrary, I think that the self minded of this feels town.

As opposed to Being Scum, and also being self aware of whether people are voting her partners I think would keep her from having that thought.

Its a bad thought. But its a bad thought that I don't think is as likely to cross her mind as scum.

i voted more for want of a vote than a strong read earlier

i don’t have any really strong wolfreads, mostly townreads and the three most current wagons were varying degrees of meh to me so skitter not wanting one means there’s no resistance from me to change it

Yeah, in context of everything, the votes are less suspicious.

You were not voting -> joined the dueling wagons -> responded to a Her Mitt post that seemed to prod you into looking at gypyx, so voted -> skitter showed up, disagreed, and put you back onto the prior vote.

But the way I read it when I was suspicious was

You voted gypyx because of reading the hermitt post -> jumped ship on that 1 hour later to keep the wagons even despite no content from gypyx or either person in the dueling wagon.

I think that you post with an extra level of dramatics over how most people post that makes people take a surface level read of your posts as manufactured/cringe/hollow/fake.

Having seen that that is actually just how you post, as either alignment, or even just in discord, results in me realizing that a lot of that is just Marci-isms, and not anything to do with your alignment, so I try to peer past it. However, I am not ever surprised when people have that immediate reaction to your posts.

I don't think that you are a bad player when you are actually trying (although, I have seen games where you were not trying. But you seem to be trying this game) so I don't really know how to give you tips on how to get "up to par" with everyone else, but that might offer some insight on why people take your posts this way?
