I don't know if she reads me town or scum, but if she's reading me scum, it's odd that she's trying to explain to me exactly what she means. On the other hand, if she's townreading me, she's exercising a lot of patience with me right now in spite of me intentionally playing dense.

MacDougall wrote: ↑Sun Oct 27, 2019 8:10 pm This is the part where Evenstar takes back her scum read on me, gives me a locktown read, starts pleading with me to "see her" or "find her" or some shit, I back down on my suspicion of her because I cbf dealing with someone with that much wim, she pockets me, keeps me alive, I grow old and weary, eventually my body dies, breaks down into dust, consumed by worms and insects, I am become GodMac.

Hi Pawn. I see you're still around and close-reading despite your last post being two hours ago. Care to share any of your insights, or are you just gonna float through the rest of the day taking convenient potshots?

He's had a lot more interactive content than you so far tbh. Lots of juicy meaty meta discussion between him and 112 and Radish. One of those three is probably scum, maybe him, but lack of content is not a valid reason to suspect him.

Yeah, I'm absolutely going to float and take convenient potshots today. I fully admit to not playing this particularly hard because I don't have the time to right now. Right now I'm in a cycle of skim the game, work on my essay that is due tomorrow, repeat cycle.

So I don't have the time to actually make an in depth post frankly. And nope, not close reading, saw the tag, then skimmed to the front page.

Evenstar wrote: ↑Sun Oct 27, 2019 8:28 pm Since Mac apparently refuses to read my earlier posts, here's the case all laid out in one place for easy reference:
1: Defends Jack for no apparent reason really early, feels the need to go digging for a game to back him up. Answers his own leading question in the process. Jack/Mac W/W?
2: No energy/fire, tone badly off. Letting two scumreads get under his skin when he's usually more resilient than that.
3: Severe lack of game content, directly stating his intent to not produce more until people start townreading him. This is not town behavior.
4: Didn't vote me until I directly fucking challenged him to. Tried to get Nanook to vote me first. No balls.
5: Just in general gives the impression he's scared to be lynched. Mac in WC1 deliberately looked scummy D1, and he was still townier than this.

2. I fully expected this game to be chill. Several people said they were gonna phone it in and have fun. I didn't anticipate getting attacked for being relaxed and was not mentally prepared for it. I prepared myself for the champs games. Those are not my usual mode at all. I rarely if ever top post in games on here. Also I have been phone posting and it's been the weekend and I've been trying to enjoy my beers, bbq and pool time while playing. I was frustrated because people were suspecting me for irrational reason on day 0 when I didn't want to have to take this game seriously. I can't help myself sometimes though.
3. I ... don't think this is actually true?
4. How does this make me scum? You are making such basic reads. I can vote for whoever I want, whenever I want. All that matters is where my vote ends up. This is why i think you are bad. You are not considering your opinions, you are just making them.

Hmmmmm.

Spiny Creature wrote: ↑Sun Oct 27, 2019 6:16 am ok if i'm gonna start posting from the point I'm caught up at, these were my ~vibes~

anyway Eva is town. and not JUST because her savagery in response to Drago's flirting attempts was the most beautiful effortless thing she's ever done. (more because of her responses to iaafr and 112). Her read that Drago continuing that flirting so long was trying to force conversation, thus scummy, was not one that would've occurred to me, but ig she could be right there.

I do not understand where iaafr's "always town" read of 112 started or came from or what the vibe is that he likes, even though he has since made posts explaining it. i like other posts of iaafr and his overall tone, but that whole read is so ???? to me.

lol at Mac saying he's policy never-lynching me and then immediately asking other people to build a case on me :P that and some overly defensive early posts / questioning things I thought were obvious had me side-eyeing him. but i liked his later posts. will see how he engages with Eva.

I do vibe with IAAFR saying that there's too much "hey i like this guy" and "this guy can be town" going on. from loose recollection Hyena and Epi felt like offenders there. Hyena maybe felt less sincere? this is loose memory.

This is one of the ones.

*narrows eyes*

I wasn't gonna make too much of it when it was just a throwaway thought from you, but when it's repeated with the exact same wording ("directly confronting me") 12 hours later, that feels like a static read. and maybe forced.

me in one post: "I'm still catching up and wasn't feeling like replying while still reading, but I do want to reply to this one specific thing from Tony"

me in the very next post: "now that i'm posting i might as well post the loose vibes I have on about 5 people so far, including a vague half-remembered read on Hyena, but these are not replies just memories"

like... dude, the lack of direct reply to you is explained. also "directly confront" as if my read on you wasn't as weaksauce as "I think I remember X scummy thing about Hyena, but not sure, will finish catchup first".

tunneling me for not replying directly to you, when I hadn't replied directly to ANYONE IN THE GAME except for Tony, and then repeating the same wording to explain the scumread 12 hours later, just feels insincere to me.

Spiny Creature wrote: ↑Sun Oct 27, 2019 7:04 pm that said, I gather that you votehop as you remember people and form new reads, based on how much I've seen you voting just in the past few pages.

so if it was just a stray thought from you and not a continued tunnel i find it less static. and therefore less weird.

........what??????????????????????????????/

I asked where I townread Pawn, because I never did.

this does not answer my question. You are redirecting to making a case that Pawn and I are w/w, which does not address the fact that I have never called Pawn town in any post in the game.

this makes no goddamn sense. I am asking you when it was that you thought I townread Pawn, considering I said I hadn't even read any of Pawn's posts.

Honest question: does townread mean something different to you? what do you even mean when you say I townread Pawn at some point? Can you explain what the word means to you?

Townread to me means I'm pocketing them, but want to lynch them for shits and giggles. :3
