    Considering she's not somebody I know, why would she have any reason to believe I'd be more willing to sheep her over Titus, you, or even Rubicon?

    You're being reachy here, brah.

    I get that you don't want to townread her because she's trying to lynch (to you) conftown, but dude... she's town.

    Okaaay...Snow, Sloth, Titus, Font. Brief reasoning? First names that popped in my head. Not good reasoning, but true.

    Both, but I was referring to the RVS vote at the time in response to Snowvon's #171. Does it give me a definitive answer, no, but Snowvon's response to it was interesting, and combined with a few other posts lead me to the scumread.

    In addition, my scumread on Snowvon also comes from his multiple posts speculating about the unknown parts of the set-up, (posts #72, #82 & 85 amongst others). From past games I've read on here, it seems to be primarily a scum tactic to post without hunting. I found post #85 ironic given this focus.

    I'll be around for a bit doing a re-read if anyone has any questions for me

    Is Snowvon posting without hunting, though?

    If she doesn't try, she'll never know.

    You're missing the context.

    I don't scumread people simply because they want to lynch me. It's something fontisian tends to do as scum. I know fontisian is capable of reading me very well.

    I don't know why she suspects me or what she thinks scum!me is doing, and I have no way of addressing that until she comes out with it. So no townread for her until further notice.

    Rubicon is either scum or way better at reading me than fonti is, which is kind of sad considering Rubicon doesn't know me nearly as well.

    I don't know you as well as fonti.

    I'm townreading you.

    Am I scum?

    There's small bits there, but I see far more of posts like #303, which contains just heavily detailed reasoning for scum reads (/sarcasm), or his Titus read (#236 & #303) which consist mainly of listing reasons that Titus is scum, while calling her town.

    Or post #82 in which Snowvon follows a vote/scumread from Plotless & Fonti with "strong" questions that boil down to, "why are you pressuring me?"

    Waco: In case you missed it, TerRaine asked me for posts by Titus that bothered me.

    Xanidel, has anything specific caught your eye so far?

    Not in particular, why? Do you think there's something I should be seeing?

    Up until the last few pages, I've been actively trying to not notice things for reasons already exhaustively discussed, and I have still noticed a number of things.

    How have you seen absolutely nothing?

    ---------- Post automerged at 19:36 ---------- Previous post was at 19:31 ----------

    Yeah... I'm gonna need some reasons for this one, please.

    Ew, those last couple posts.

    The read comes from the way his early opinions matched some of the views from the mafia theorizing in the first games on the site, way back in the Day. I think he actually did that research and didn't have anyone more experienced to discuss it with.

    He's new. Give him a Day to get his feet under him and see what happens.

    Nope. I'm just seeing if you have anything to say.

    Oh I didn't say that, just nothing definitive or interesting. Nothing that could give me a firm idea on who to vote for. I'll probably lend more to the discussion once we've got a day/night cycle to discuss rather than random finger pointing.

    So, the quoting isn't working for me so I'm going to have to do it like this.

    his fluffiness said:
    I don't see what is wrong here. My exact words were ' I don't think it makes you scum but I do think it makes you scummy. Hopefully you understand what I mean'. What I mean is that I don't think Rubicon is definite scum but I do think he has done some scummy things (vote hopping) which is why I am still happy with my vote being on him.

    ---------- Post automerged at 11:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:49 PM ----------

    1) Are you using my understanding of mafia concepts as a minor scumtell? If so that's one I've never seen before.

    2) My comment about Rubicon's intro thread was a joke. My real reason was all of his vote switching. Also when I called the thread "full of win" that was in regards to the whole intro thread and not just Rubicon's.

    Anyway, I'm going to do a read through and I'll post my reads later.

    If you think he's scummy, but not necessarily scum, why are you leaving your vote on him?

    Titus- Where you at, doge. I want your thoughts on... Rubi, Raine, and Pinky.

    Sloth- What's good meng?

    Fluffy- I'ma ignore you about as much as you ignore the thread. #ShotsFiyahed
