Is it I that is insane... or the rest of the world?
Been trying to update my reads. Work's been eating into my mafia time so I don't have nearly as much time to re-read stuff, so I'll have to trickle this out.

Managed to re-read MMM and AS so far and I don't like that weird "lol omg" slapfight they have. I think one or both sides of argument are fake, but I can't quite tell which one. Something about it just seems off to me.

It’s the person who tried to laugh off a legit point with lol and omg, and then got weirdly upset with me as quoting those parts specifically when quoting their posts as if it was a constructed narrative

I don’t think Atomic Soda has hither to ever used lol or omg except to laugh along nervously to the idea of the vote swinging onto her

A few things

- Light on content compared to everyone alive. Scum generally are quieter because their reads aren’t genuine; not always but it’s a factor.

- Only vote on Day 1 was a joke vote right at the start. Day 2 spent some time thinking about Anidav and eventually voting Anidav after previously ruling out an Anidav / MMM scumteam.

Monathin posted:

Yeah, I really don't see that team at all tbh.

Like, fine if he had a town read on you, but I think if he was town there would have been a reason why Anidav was scummy and you weren’t?

The vote on Anidav was towards deadline, it and the Day 1 vote read like scum not wanting to commit to their reads.

Monathin posted:

I'm not inclined to think Lando is scum right now. A lot of their scummier actions are circumstantial, imo. Like I mentioned yesterday they seem to be putting in genuine effort into their casework so, even if they're scum, I'd be less inclined to vote them because this game has had so many people coasting by.

Like flerp. I'm not going to vote yet because it's pretty early in the day but, yeah, you raise a good point about flerp not having made any reads at all so far.

Hey, flerp, buddy, who scum?

Similarly with the soft-casing if flerp, it’s saying “flerp you suss” without ever committing to a vote.

My take on flerp remains that because he didn’t do too much on d1 / some of d2, and he voted to kill Sal, he was a name you could throw out like “flerp, that dude scummy we should think about him” without doing any real work, just a lazy lazy case

he could be scum yeah, though if he was I think a scumbro would have bussed him harder.

birdstrike

like if he’s sitting there all scummy, why wouldn’t you as a scumbro try and get that sweet town cred for being the first to put a vote on him

whereas in this game nobody has really gone to that much effort on him

Yami Yugi went and hard-voted flerp, as well as Soda, MMM at various points in time.

I haven’t played with them before, I could see them as scum because their vote has continued to jump around a bit (like they’re not committed to their reads)

left field angle: Soda was paying attention to the Sal softclaim and didn’t want to be on the vote because she was image conscious as scum voting a town power role

I like this line of thought because its something i considered before:

MMM Whatchya Say posted:

I like Atomic Soda's style of posting, it's a sort of a steady burn

The unvote close to the deadline is something to think about though. I don't think most people would have picked up on that as a soft claim, but perhaps it reads differently if you're scum? Something I'm mulling over right now.

frustrated, not nervous.

lol is for shared laughter, derision an despair. ha is for telling a bro you saw what you did there eh. to answer your earlier question.

is there anything specific you'd like to ask me about it?

this is a reasonable read but it is wrong. if i was that concerned why did i bang on about it day two, including after you said nah. if it were the case i'd still be better off not drawing attention to myself.

i told you a specific day that i wouldn't post, the idea that's some loving master villain plan where i make a great idea to lurk for exactly one real life day by not posting at all and then presumably posting again after is beyond goofy poo poo

what would even be the point? at what point have you picked up "this guy doesn't want to post a lot" vibes from me?

about here is when I first got a townread on MMM. I thought the exasperation about saying you had something irl on and getting poked by beet about it (as he does) was genuine

I guess scum can get mad for real reasons too so maybe I’m an idiot

this post is a read on town, not scum. i call it out, and yours, cause i don't think either are helpful in terms of encouraging town to play. i am not calling it out because i am scum who thinks that beet is saying he would do a better job than me.
