It's an implicit read rather than an explicit one, I'll give you that.

So it's a meta read? I haven't read any past games here, so I am just going off of posts in this game. The way you approached it as a way to just fake some interaction by going "well I don't like his style posting, but I really can't lynch him because he's a claimed PR..... so I will tell the thread that instead of just coming up with a read and a vote".

Ask me about being a SJW in EE and working to make anyone who disagrees with me a villain and gets no opportunity to defend themselves at all because my army or sycophants I buy off with pixels follows me blindly.

What's hilarious is that even if a cornered scum was getting votes and they claimed jailor, everyone would vote me first, not even caring that I claimed it first

If you are spending more time worrying about the claims/mass claims than casing and reading people, you aren't helping town at all. The last 5 pages are a giant obfuscation of posts now because it's just a bunch of arguing about WIFOM that could be done in the mafia discussion thread about the viability of it, or you could just model out what happens in a spreadsheet. Case scum, lynch scum.

No I mean, me saying "I'd vote for KK" is implying that my only suspicion based on play would be KK, but I discount voting for him due to the setup and state of the game making it a very poor vote to make. It may not be related in a concise post, but I am a bit forlorn about this, frustrated a little bit even.

Most of the information is out there. Enough of it that scum has an advantage over town right now unless we finish the process, since we are giving them extra cracks to hide in. The sooner we get through this, the sooner we can get back to the pure mafia that some of you so crave. Are you a power role or a backup? Or?

I like closed games a lot more than C9++ or other open setups because it ends up turning into a math game which usually is heavily distracting from actually finding scum.

You seem nervous.

Why would a hypothetical "cornered Scum getting votes" choose Jailer to fakeclaim? If you got lynched and flipped Jailer they would still be doomed. If you were Jailer, any other fakeclaim would give them better advantage.

Maybe you were "just kidding" when you made that claim? If you want to say that, better now than later.

with how everyone wants to lynch me, I'd fakeclaim jailor if I was cornered scum at this point. It'd be a 1 for 1 trade

I'm not foot dragging. Also, calling a post scummy because it disagrees with your premise of claiming is not scummy, it's just disagreement. Throwing that word around makes me think you really don't understand what scummy means or you just want to subtlety discredit me.

I am not "subtly discrediting" you, I am explicitly calling you out on bullshit. Given the current state of claims, refusing to join the mass softclaim is antiTown, as KB explained, and I will support lynching you if you're a holdout.
