I was clearly looking for more lmao, town shouldn't give the absolute minimum because they are trying to be constructive and develop the conversation/content not shut it down with as minimal answer as they can get away with no?

What I'm not likely is how much I've to dig out of you? If you're town you're being difficult to work with and give out info, why? Can you not just give an actual answer people can work with rather than oh yes this is technically possible etc. Being literal is fine but it's very unhelpful and I'm getting that you don't want to contribute that much or upset the flow. Despite being in thread you're not doing a whole lot.

because I'm playing hereos of the storm rn

So you have enough time to read everything posted as soon as it's posted, reply instantly, vote, give opinions that suit you

But it stops for one or two little posts that might be slightly more difficult to answer and have you think on your feet?

Yes and no. Yes town should provide information. No town shouldn't entertain every dumb question that enters their field of vision.

You asked a leading question which leads nowhere except an accusation. Just start at which one they think more likely. Asking "Is it possible" is a dumb trap question.

Anyone who has AI fluffposting probably learns to not do that pretty quick tbh.

I think his entrance was really awkward (particularly the "what kind of scum are you?" question as well as "Damn son!"). Feels like he's trying way too hard to try to fit in and failing (which was why I made my original vote since I never explained it at the time).

I also don't like his reaction to my vote. Given that myself and Herm have never spoken or interacted at all before this game / my vote on Herm, the fact that Herm doesn't ask me for any sort of clarification on my vote but immediately says that I'm wilding (I'm not quote sure what he means here but I'm assuming it means that my vote is crazy) but not any sort of scumread on me if it's a bad vote feels really ingenuine to me (and I'm pretty sure this TMIs me town if Herm is a wolf) and then the insistence that I would come round on him (again, despite never having interacted with me before this exchange - I had barely posted at this point either and could be any random) doesn't feel like a genuine thought process at all.

Also something I thought was interesting from Herm's reaction was that he seemed to have implicitly known my vote on him was serious without any sort of explanation (and overreacted)? This is weak but it makes me feel like Herm is already feeling guilty/paranoid about posts they've made (which fits my narrative of struggling to fit in as a wolf) and reacted weirdly as a result?

Not as much to say on his later posts but a lot of of them (almost all of the earlier ones) are awkward-feeling fluff, questions that don't really go anywhere or just commentary. I also think that having his only scumreads being pretty much "because Gavial said so" is nagl (especially because I might be missing this but I don't think Herm actually outed a TR on Gavial anywhere?).

No. I actually want to learn how to read him accurately so I can go to Alison haha I can read him you can't

Yeah this game, Esooa is just giving overall Townie vibes.

Esooa wrote: ↑Sat Jun 12, 2021 2:08 am so first of all

Herm has on read. It's a town read on me. He outed it after I wolf read him like close to 400 posts in the thread

Whether it's due to me wolf reading him or not, don't really know or care

But I think the fact that it's his only read, and that he outed it in such a weird way, means he's more likely mafia

It didn't feel natural. Why town read me then? He almost certainly didn't, so he had it before, so why not out it then?

Really all I can think is him going "I need to out some reads, Esooa is town"

Which can come from town? But it feels really scummy

Don't know if I'm explaining this properjly

I'm placing Alison in my very tiny townpool for now. Looking forward to interact with the Wurzel.

oh, there was also this

It's pretty meh. I didn't think Alison did anything towny but I also know her. Don't know how Herm would perceive it but I'd say it's a pretty expect reaction regardless of his alignment. "Alison is being loud, forceful with reads, etc, so town"

Esooa wrote: ↑Sat Jun 12, 2021 2:15 am My problem with Herm is he seems to be trying to participate more than actually participating. He's asking a lot of questions, but they don't really do anything, at all. I don't even need a read out of them but I would like to know he's thinking about them at least. Which I don't get the idea he is really ever. Here's some of the questions/attempts at participation I'm talking about

Spoiler: show

Nice to meet everyone! Those who I have met with briefly before and those who I'm meeting for the first time.

The last quote just feels like he's having to force himself into thread. "Wiml is wildin hard" was immediately negated saying oh it was just a joke. Why does he say Wiml is wilding, say it was a joke, then end the topic? Does he not want to ask Wiml anything about Wiml's vote on him? These points are emphasized by posts like this

Long Con going for that long con.

Where after catchup, his summarizing post is "I enjoy the bird memes," or his vote is, "Long Con going for that long con."

Wouldn’t be surprised in Wiml/HK/Falcon team with some other random wolf.

I think this post expresses genuine annoyance at Creature's behavior, which is townie.

Not to ruin people townreading me, but I genuinely wasn't annoyed there. Just poking their response back at them.

I double down on town read (unlike Alison apparently oopsie its my read now)
