Scum don't often whine so openly about soft town reads from town. They know it looks petty. It takes a real villager to bitch and moan about that sort of thing so blatantly.
I don't really agree with this in the context of the player it applies to, but I'm good with this thought process at least. Did you mention having a town read on RDK before that post?

Just got to the Aurelian vote on Ratchet

I feel that's genuine, just a random vote from someone who hasn't read. I played one scum game with Aurelian and he felt more like he was lying low than not having read
Interesting, I don't have the same feeling. Check this one when Aurelian flips

You really shouldn't give me credit for this, I'm just naturally insecure
as scum you'll feel insecure about your value to the team and if you can actually help them/avoid hurting them. here you were insecure about the content you were providing and it being made out to be nonsense/gibberish which would lead to you no longer wanting to put forth anything.
i say that because she feels that way more than i do. i dont think people should just sheep me, but if there are people i think would just sheep me im going to find it sus if they arrive at a point where they're doing the polar opposite of something relatively weak.

I feel the predicate of this case is that Flower would come out of the gate thinking you're town any game, which I don't feel is guaranteed
thats not what he meant, flower comes out of the gate wanting him to be town, not thinking he is one. she just wants to have a strong town player for her to sheep, and tries to comf bias them as town just to satisfy that need. classic woman mindset

Good response.

He could be. So an important thing to understand about me is I like to make decisions day 1 and see what happens. See how the game feels. People imo get too caught up with all of the possibilities of 'could they be scum' but especially early I like 'what are they more likely to be' with rand % being the baseline. So if it's 50/50 that's actually scum indicative since there are more town. Using lazy math I would say 85-90% of the time when I see someone solving in a way that shows earnestness but also a poor understanding of thread state that is town. That's not bulletproof. I can't bet the game on it. There are exceptions. But it's above rand so it's a good place to start constructing a world for day 1 imo

That's great and all but uh unless you have any objections to Aurelian specifically this is kinda stage performance no
Most of my game is stage performance of a sort. It helps me solve. You may do as you like although I don't find the slot interesting.

Gonna say Magic is straight up town now from what I've seen

I doubt he'd be this sure about my alignment as scum, he'd probably play it a bit more safe to allow for a [press in case of scum emergency] ML later down the line

if ur best lead at that point is an inactive i suggest sending u to dead chat tbdean

feel like u just made that read for the sake of making a read, its just tossed out there with no second thought. anything but a null on me at that stage is fake territory

down to cap sky

i dont disagree with your approach but with the context of meta, which you obviously dont have, the application of some of the general tells youre using aren't really accurate for the individual.

i.e. ekko as scum isnt going to pretend to know what's going on when he shouldn't. i actually disagree with your idea that it's something scum players often do as id wager it's more along something a weak scum player will slip up on(knowing things they'd otherwise be unaware about or should be unaware about either due to their inactivity or due to their stated lack of being caught up for certain portions of the game).

anyways this is convo isn't really going anywhere useful, but ill give you a town read for your approach as it comes off as the town approach in a new environment. (a new scum player that's experienced could easily use their lack of meta knowledge to fence sit all the town reads they give out or not give them in the first place but achromatic is not even bothering to state that they could be wrong until asked and hasn't used a lack of knowledge of meta to stop from eliminating players from his poe).

Eh not a fan of this

I feel like you made a tossaway observation that I was claim fishing and aren't particularly invested in solving either Me/Aurelian, in conjunction this feels like the kind of soapboxing you might do if you had TMI.

As we all know scum tend to be the ones who throw ideas out without careful planning as a general rule.

i didnt like how you made a big reads list and weren't going to vote anywhere before going to bed until asked. seemed hesitant.

it was a shit read like most of your reads so far
Does shit reads necessarily = scum tho? Town are inherently less informed than scum especially D1, of course town's reads will be weaker
