I really like the idea of trying to break the mafias mission as we go towards the EoD. Though I do not think that we need to drive ourselves crazy trying to figure out exactly what the mission is. We need to develop our reads and reasoning behind having the people up for lynch and every night cycle or day cycle look into how people are voting and see if there are any trends that people take together. Also just curious when you say cut the day short by an hour and just move all votes to the person who has the majority, doesn't that make our options kind of small and cause a tunnel on that person. If we go that way there really isn't much in the way of vote analysis to go with its just everyone pushed their votes on that one person and we can't see voting patterns for that time period when its important I guess is what i'm saying. That part worries me a bit. | ||

If I may draw your attention to Guilty mafia that just completed, we swung the vote in the last 30 seconds almost to lynch mafia day one. If we get stuck to much in the mindset that we have to find the mission and break it, or piling on votes to one wagon (which i think is what was discussed) is a good idea. It really is not today, or any day. We really need at least two wagons going just so we have another option and we can see peoples voting patterns take form after day1,2,3 etc.. What do you think about Templars post, and batsnacks vote? | ||

Why are you so willing to shoot batsnacks? You even say that this is fool batsnacks in your post, it seems kinda weird you would want to shoot bats when you think hes possibly trying to get lynched..... And why would you be willing to get 3d12 out of the game? He seems awkward its true, and his read on bats is faulty (his initial reasons anyway) but does not getting him out of the game for those reasons seem a bit flimsy to you? | ||

It's how I approach the game. For all I know, we don't even have 3p or vigi. But it was just an idea. So, therefore, that's why I said shoot him rather than lynch. As for 3d12, more of a gut read, but I don't like his posting. Sure the bs read is slightly based on that, but his posting is awkward in general. Oh i misunderstood what you were saying about bats, I thought you were just calling him a fool in general not the role fool. I do not know if their is a third party so i'll leave that alone for now. But does awkward=scummy always? Is that a good way to go about scum reading people? | ||

Well, i'm looking at 3d and his responses right now, and yes there does seem to be a little backtracking and their is awkwardness but I really don't see him trying to divert. From every post he meets it pretty head on and tries to explain his position. Where do you see him diverting and where to? | ||

Why did you initially vote Templar and give no explanation and then unvote him? Did he do something to deserve your unvote? You also pay attention to 3d posting and conclude that he has sounded that way since before the game started. Do you think that his ideas and reactions are towny in nature? I know you said you thought his apologetic tone wasn't scummy. I must say bat this is not the normal town Bats i'm used to normally you are pretty crazy, which you showed with your first two posts (what was the first post from btw). But your posts feel really formulaic atm and it worries me. | ||

Currently, I am nervous about Micchan. He made his initial post (which i pointed out also), that complains about the thread atmosphere which honestly was not bad at the time of his post. I think we were still in setup talk and were startin to move towards actual talk. He did not stay in the thread and help improve the conversation or even say what the mess was. On his return his posts were an excuse and throwing more suspicion onto 3d with no follow up. He has since lurked obviously. This is worrisome to me, but it is not enough for a scum read currently I think. We still have a good many hours left to search for scum and their is just not much to go on in his filter, theres no real meta case to be made as he is a newb or a smurf. And well I really do not like going for low hanging fruit. The people who I would like to see more out of right now are: Batsnacks: His entrance to the thread was weird. On his re-entrance he ignored a lot of things that were posted against him, he never even showed interest in answering anything. His posts are really formulaic, right now they are reminding me of Neat and Tidy mafia instead of crazy bats in Cell or Titanic. Also usually hes really spammy, but his postings have been really hit and miss and even though he spared a lot of thoughts to 3d, his only reaction is that an apologetic tone is not scummy. But their are other things in 3ds posts that he could talk about and he does not really draw conclusions from that. Bunnies: Bunnies is a bit odd to me, a lot of her early filter is a lot of trolling with fluff thrown in. Suddenly she town reads templar and poof and gives little reason for it. Even goes far enough to meta read poof and giving him a town pass for not very good reasons. This is the worrying part to me, Bunnies talks about shooting people over gut feelings and saying that Bats is a third party (hypothetically). Has not returned to the thread yet and responded to why she would want to direct vig at this point to make a kill and push us towards lylo over nothing. Micchan for the reasons listed above 3D i'm not really sure about yet, he seems awkward which is not alignment indicative but he at least gives his views in the thread and then tries toe xplain himself. So more of a I want to see more of his thoughts. | ||

He is clearly just not trying and would be the easiest of all easy misslynches. I'm starting to wonder if the mafia goal involves like not voting as there is a bunch of people who haven't even placed a vote as of yet. I agree with your Bunnies read. I'm not too excited on how she talks about 3d parties and stuff wanting to kill them more than mafia as I think Oats pointed out. 3D Can you describe what you mean by awkward I think I know what you mean but not 100% also why would you bring it up that its a null in your opinion? Do you have any town reads atm? Batsnacks in the games you mentioned what alignment was he? I don't think I played in those. i'll start at the bottom and work my way up In N&T where his posts were the most formulaic he was mafia. In Titanic and Cell he ws a bit more irrational and hopped about, but he never avoided questions he met everything head on and faught everyone who really wanted to scum read him. He ignored all of that here like he sorta did in N&T. I have some town leans currently Well, I mean hes a bit awkward in his posts in that he needs follow up to clarify what he means and the idea behind it. And he draws a lot of attention because of it. I'm worried about him mainly because I do not know his play style and can not look it up. So i'd like to see a bit more to give me a bit more of a concrete read. Well theres still plenty of time to find a good lynch for today. Especially since this is not an instant majority, we have time to mull our options so no my vote is precious to me and I'll give it out when I think that they are mafia. So quit with the bad pressure to vote him right now. | ||

He is curious to me right now. There were a few things to talk about in the thread at that point that he could of talked about, or some other reads he could of given. In one of his opening posts he even says giving reads>finding missions. There are a few other things he could of talked about or brought attention to, for instance he mentioned how lazy the votes on bats were. But he did not even bother talking about that in detail, he instead jumped on the pressure 3d train and then left the thread. So yea he looks a little weird to me righ tnow. | ||

I'm having trouble envisioning a scenario where he would be helpful on day three. The comment about 3d diverting attention seems sensationalized to me. His other post is a complaint without doing anything and a unnecessary defense. I might put myself in a bad spot if he flips green, but he may be my preferred lynch right now. Out of everything posted this is generally the most scummy looking thing that I see. However I do not read this as scummy at all. To me it shows reasonable doubt about his vote and where it is going. Hes struggling with the idea of lynching someone who is making excuses and not playing. I think its a really towny thing to struggle with, is it to scummy to be scum. | ||

Theres a few things that have led me to this vote. The first being in the way that his posts have gone about. He casually threw more accusations at 3d when pressure on him was the highest. He complained about the thread but never tried to fix it, gave excuses why he did not post yesterday and never posted again. All he has done is lurk, and while lurking is not scummy his play and posts look and feel scummy to me. A couple games ago I got into a situation that was similar in arnie and I let GB slide doing somewhat the same things and I don't want to make that mistake again by letting someone go whos to scummy to be scum. | ||

I lurked the thread on my phone when I could get service, and took down some notes: With my personal notes out of the way, let's move on to direct responses: Up until this post in the thread, bunnies' biggest contribution to the thread was to town claim for the person she's been buddying/bantering with throughout the whole thread. Suspicious? Yes. Lynchable? Not by itself. I also particularly disliked the way bunnies was gathering information, going from defensive short-posts to prodding people for their reads and then replying to each one-by-one. Generally, townies are more willing to share their reads, instead of needing to base their perspective on other people's reads. Today's bunnies is a bit different from yesterday's bunnies, in that she's laid out a list of her reads. No information or explanation, but at least she's sharing. I do like that. The read is silly because it was based entirely on meta. A person's meta can change from game to game. This read came from nothing tangible. For example, it would be impossible for me to have the same read on poof because I've never played with him. Since you and I have been exposed to the same information this game, you are using information I have not been exposed to to make a claim on someone else. That is absolutely 100% fishy, would you agree? As for my reads on poofter, see point 3 from my "last night's notes" above, and my list of reads below. Anyone else thinking that mderg is trying hard to get some focus on me? I wasn't the only one to nullread/townread bat yesterday. And yes, traditionally from my live mafia experience, provocative openings are usually townies. It's probably an 80/20 split. I never confirmed him green, but I pointed out that bat looked town from the way he opened. If you have a better reason to scumread him instead, why not post your reasoning? This was all the reasoning I could find in your filter, and it's pretty weak. So, how about it, mderg? Batsnacks: scum or town? List of reads: Mafia ObiWanShinobi (Very non-committal so far, easily switched vote from "troll vote" to batsnacks once it seemed like bat was being scumread. Hesitant to share information. Off-topic posts. Only real redeeming quality so far is calling out kush, very pro-town move.) mderg (Repeatedly pushing the "ignore the missions" idea, provoking reactions from players while not disclosing any information himself, heavy lurking, generally defensive) kushm4sta (Tunnel-vision on batsnacks, trying to start a plynch, low activity otherwise) Micchan (Inactivity, defensive, no thoughts shared, no case built, suspicious bandwagoning) Mafia-likely (Pink) TehPoofter (High voting pressure, starting a bandwagon/plynch, very large filter, calls people out on buddying while blatantly attempting to buddy, redeemed so far by good questioning of Templar's motives) Oatsmaster (Avoiding all talk about missions, redirecting scum claims towards bat and Obi, not posting thoughts openly) Neutral (White) The_Templar (Good expression and information-sharing, challenges unnatural ideas/thoughts, sensibly pieces together a motive. Neutral because of weak (meta/defensive) defense about his role) Vivax (Strange read on poofter, but otherwise constructs very sensible and well-put-together posts pointing out discrepancies. Without the pink vibe from his accusations toward kita and templar, would likely be very town atm.) Damdred (No real read yet, seems to be gathering information. Is asking the right questions, but not sharing information openly) 27ninjabunnies (Good info balanced out by suspicious buddying/claiming) Town batsnacks (I wasn't sure at first, but after your expose on kita, I know you're looking in the right places. Your investigation is solid and you're providing direct responses to your challenges. I highly doubt kita is scum, but I like the way you think.) kitaman27 (The main source of information so far imo, this guy is posting very good reads and keeping good notes. Only scummy behavior so far is what was pointed out by Vivax, but without further proof I'm willing to let it slide as a poor choice of words) All in all, I don't like the idea of a plynch. However, I less like the idea of scum lurking the thread and hopping on whatever bandwagon is hot at the time. Let's change that. ##Vote: Micchan What? This just looks funny to me. | ||

I initially scum read bunnies but going back and rereading her filter, she answered all the questions posed to her. And I am starting to fade pink read her going towards green. She has actually asked some decent questions and pushed whats appearing to be a decent counter wagon on bats and has put pressure on him. Also my statement about oats still stands, if hes so sure that i'm the lynch today then theirs no reason to go after kush. Build a case on me instead of saying gotta roast kush some before. And if all it takes to scum read me is me explaining why i'm voting the way i am....we should vote poof off. Also if you look at most of my past games I always hold my vote late 100% of the time. In Guilty Rayn roasts me about my vote as well as other people do and I answer the same thing I do now, I like holding my vote longer so that I can get as much information before I decide on a vote. | ||

Also about his first post being weird, just for reference in the thread I believe bats had been in the thread before I posted my scum read on him, and he ignored pretty much everything that was posted against him at that point. Vivax you are giving no room for anyones reads to evolve or include anything as their mind gets to it. You just want people to go this is what I think and never move from it, it seems. Peoples reads and thought processes evolve over time and it should become apparent in what they say in the thread if you are confused about the evolution you ask for an explanation and expect an answer. You aren't doing that you see a post that says x and then another post say y and you scream scum. I will get to kitmans post that I was asked to comment on now and get to a couple scum reads | ||

Vivax: Hes seemed to tunnel pretty much every person he has went after this game. Templar, he said was scummy, bats he said was worth another look. But his vote ended up on someone he said was a plynch and then he peace'd out and went to sleep. He never reallye ven tried to get a wagon going on d1 and he jumped on a plynch As day two draws near he hears Oats wants to lynch people who over explained their votes. Vivax never looks back at the votes really. He jumps on me because of what he says is an over explained vote, but he never pressures the other people on the train who had contradictions in previous statements and where they ended up. He also gives no room for evolution of reads, or gives context for posts, he just looks for things that could be scummy and links them together. 3D: I just keep going back to those last posts he made in D1 and they just look bad. He has a lot of scum reads, and then says its scummy to jump on the hot lynch wagon after lurking but he does the same thing. He does say whatever he is thinking it seems like in d2 but his D1 to me was really scummy and his case on bats fullfilling some mission today is weird to me. Getting concerened about a couple other people now, I still have bats as scum but the case on him hasn't changed much. Hes really formal and is try hard and formulaic in his posts which look a lot like N&T and Storm 2, even his night 2 postings where he was getting people riled up it fits into his scum meta. | ||

Which is to say that you are just normally insane which is why I like playing with you. On kitaman, i've reread his filter a couple of times now. And their are some scummy things about it. During a read through (on phone so can't quote but can add them later), he picks on some easy targets during the time 3d (who I think is mafia), batsnacks, damdred, obi and NB. Most of his cases or votes fall onto people who are either under a lot of pressure during the time, don't defend themselves, or when they do show up he transfers his vote. Or it seems if the vote is not gaining traction he will go back to someone that has a bit of traction (obi->Damdred for instance). Also he put up a decent case against bunnies, but he hasn't pushed it at all past a couple of posts which is weird to me. If he has a real scum read on her why isn't he pushing it like crazy instead of just posting it and then not even brining it back up, especially with bunnies lack of activity today. Instead he has been jumping between the different lynch wagons, with the exception being on obi, who he did not even stay on long enough to get a real pressure out of he just hopped back to me. So i'd say, hes not taking hard stances, trying to take his way towards an easy lynch (worrying about mic flipping green for instance or jumping on people who have had pressure), and hes not pushed his own nb read during the day to try to get her wagon going. So overall I think hes scummy after rereading his filter again | ||

You call out what you find scummy, you don't see something scummy, then look for reasons for why it's townie. Answer us why you found it scummy in the first place if you deliver a town explanation??? You willingly chose to interpret something in a townie way you claimed to have found scummy. Why don't you actually put the post in context to what was going on in the thread instead of just grabbing one out and yelling about it? | ||

What was the point of defending kita against it if you felt that what he posted was scummy? You can't call one behaviour both scummy and town in the same post unless you're making up shit. A townie answer would have been to plain and simply disagree with bats, a scummy answer is to first agree with him to kiss his ass and not look like you're disagreeing but then actually posting reasons for why you don't agree. Just because out of three posts that bat posted, one of them I say "Hey guys this is the most scummy thing kita says" doesn't mean that I think its scummy. instead I go and explain in that post why I don't think its scummy AT THAT TIME. | ||

You were constantly on the fence with bats before, avoiding to give a more decisive opinion on him, always treading between agreeing and being indecisive when poofter questioned you. When obi talks about him, you felt compelled to reply for bats... Why would you do that? Obi wonders what reasons bats has to suspect kita. You feel like chiming in, and find the best reason bats has to display and then disagree with it. WHY? It just doesn't make any fucking sense from a town perspective. Your objective as town would be to find scum, not...Answering for bats, then disagreeing with him and townreading kita, who you recently called scummy for a bunch of other stuff. I said a few times in the thread before that, that I thought bats was scummy. I even had a small little meta case on him, why are you trying to misrepresent what i've done again vivax? I saw something I wanted to post about and give an opinion and I did. And it's called read evolution as the thread goes on reads change as you get more posts on people and you see more patterns and what not. Unlike how you are acting right now, I realize that I can be wrong and my reads can and should change on that. | ||

He made his initial post (which i pointed out also), that complains about the thread atmosphere which honestly was not bad at the time of his post. I think we were still in setup talk and were startin to move towards actual talk. He did not stay in the thread and help improve the conversation or even say what the mess was. On his return his posts were an excuse and throwing more suspicion onto 3d with no follow up. He has since lurked obviously. This is worrisome to me, but it is not enough for a scum read currently I think. We still have a good many hours left to search for scum and their is just not much to go on in his filter, theres no real meta case to be made as he is a newb or a smurf. And well I really do not like going for low hanging fruit. The people who I would like to see more out of right now are: Batsnacks: His entrance to the thread was weird. On his re-entrance he ignored a lot of things that were posted against him, he never even showed interest in answering anything. His posts are really formulaic, right now they are reminding me of Neat and Tidy mafia instead of crazy bats in Cell or Titanic. Also usually hes really spammy, but his postings have been really hit and miss and even though he spared a lot of thoughts to 3d, his only reaction is that an apologetic tone is not scummy. But their are other things in 3ds posts that he could talk about and he does not really draw conclusions from that. Bunnies: Bunnies is a bit odd to me, a lot of her early filter is a lot of trolling with fluff thrown in. Suddenly she town reads templar and poof and gives little reason for it. Even goes far enough to meta read poof and giving him a town pass for not very good reasons. This is the worrying part to me, Bunnies talks about shooting people over gut feelings and saying that Bats is a third party (hypothetically). Has not returned to the thread yet and responded to why she would want to direct vig at this point to make a kill and push us towards lylo over nothing. Micchan for the reasons listed above 3D i'm not really sure about yet, he seems awkward which is not alignment indicative but he at least gives his views in the thread and then tries toe xplain himself. So more of a I want to see more of his thoughts. On September 03 2014 11:59 Damdred wrote: i'll start at the bottom and work my way up In N&T where his posts were the most formulaic he was mafia. In Titanic and Cell he ws a bit more irrational and hopped about, but he never avoided questions he met everything head on and faught everyone who really wanted to scum read him. He ignored all of that here like he sorta did in N&T. I have some town leans currently Well, I mean hes a bit awkward in his posts in that he needs follow up to clarify what he means and the idea behind it. And he draws a lot of attention because of it. I'm worried about him mainly because I do not know his play style and can not look it up. So i'd like to see a bit more to give me a bit more of a concrete read. Well theres still plenty of time to find a good lynch for today. Especially since this is not an instant majority, we have time to mull our options so no my vote is precious to me and I'll give it out when I think that they are mafia. So quit with the bad pressure to vote him right now.

He never reallye ven tried to get a wagon going on d1 and he jumped on a plynch As day two draws near he hears Oats wants to lynch people who over explained their votes. Vivax never looks back at the votes really. He jumps on me because of what he says is an over explained vote, but he never pressures the other people on the train who had contradictions in previous statements and where they ended up. He also gives no room for evolution of reads, or gives context for posts, he just looks for things that could be scummy and links them together. 3D: I just keep going back to those last posts he made in D1 and they just look bad. He has a lot of scum reads, and then says its scummy to jump on the hot lynch wagon after lurking but he does the same thing. He does say whatever he is thinking it seems like in d2 but his D1 to me was really scummy and his case on bats fullfilling some mission today is weird to me. Getting concerened about a couple other people now, I still have bats as scum but the case on him hasn't changed much. Hes really formal and is try hard and formulaic in his posts which look a lot like N&T and Storm 2, even his night 2 postings where he was getting people riled up it fits into his scum meta.

I have to rethink him and reread him in the time I have left. Bats changed his playstyle day 2, which caused me to doubt my case against him. I'm not sure if he did that because of my case on him or because hes town. The sudden vote worries me because last night he said that I was the man, which normally means hes town reading me but the sudden switch makes me conflicted. | ||

Day one he was just so structured in everything he did. It felt so much like N&T bats only posting during certain times of the day, and the way he did everything just felt that way. It also looked and felt like storm 2 when he was mafia. Night one, he got a few people mad with his posts which is normal bat play as mafia in storm 2 which fit really well. But hes always a dick to people. Day two, hes not been as structured and has jumped around doing whatever he wants like he did in Cell. But his vote swing after seemingly town reading me doesn't fit into normal bats. I'm going to have to go scum, but i'm conflicted on him. | ||

Plus if you look at his posts you can see his thought process he's not scared to be wrong admits it, and shows evolution in what he does. Also his struggle he's shown and uncertainty with reads is a kush town tell. and a town kush is more valuable alive than a dead town kush. | ||

From my RL experience with Mafia, I've found it's usually good to have multiple options at the end of the day like you said, to be able to better piece together who is siding with whom in the long run. I'd say that's a defensible tactic to employ later on, but I'd agree that it serves no purpose in the first few days. Especially when we have no hint whatsoever as to what these missions are. From Templar's post, I think this stuck out to me the most: [quote="The_Templar"] And the missions are required for mafia… or they will die. I would say that's better for us anyway He makes a good point. We're making a witch-hunt out of nothing right now. I think batsnacks is judging reactions and playing provocateur. He looks pretty town from where I'm standing, but I don't have all my chips on the table just yet. ![]() This post has two buddy points in it, One with me, when he shows appreciation for what I did, and one for bats just town reading him for nothing at this point. Also another thing that I have a problem with in this post is the fact that he wants multiple options by the end of the day On September 04 2014 03:53 3d12 wrote: Hey everyone, sorry for going MIA yesterday. I got dragged into a bit of a mess IRL that ended up sucking up my night. I lurked the thread on my phone when I could get service, and took down some notes: With my personal notes out of the way, let's move on to direct responses: Up until this post in the thread, bunnies' biggest contribution to the thread was to town claim for the person she's been buddying/bantering with throughout the whole thread. Suspicious? Yes. Lynchable? Not by itself. I also particularly disliked the way bunnies was gathering information, going from defensive short-posts to prodding people for their reads and then replying to each one-by-one. Generally, townies are more willing to share their reads, instead of needing to base their perspective on other people's reads. Today's bunnies is a bit different from yesterday's bunnies, in that she's laid out a list of her reads. No information or explanation, but at least she's sharing. I do like that. The read is silly because it was based entirely on meta. A person's meta can change from game to game. This read came from nothing tangible. For example, it would be impossible for me to have the same read on poof because I've never played with him. Since you and I have been exposed to the same information this game, you are using information I have not been exposed to to make a claim on someone else. That is absolutely 100% fishy, would you agree? As for my reads on poofter, see point 3 from my "last night's notes" above, and my list of reads below. Anyone else thinking that mderg is trying hard to get some focus on me? I wasn't the only one to nullread/townread bat yesterday. And yes, traditionally from my live mafia experience, provocative openings are usually townies. It's probably an 80/20 split. I never confirmed him green, but I pointed out that bat looked town from the way he opened. If you have a better reason to scumread him instead, why not post your reasoning? This was all the reasoning I could find in your filter, and it's pretty weak. So, how about it, mderg? Batsnacks: scum or town? List of reads: Mafia ObiWanShinobi (Very non-committal so far, easily switched vote from "troll vote" to batsnacks once it seemed like bat was being scumread. Hesitant to share information. Off-topic posts. Only real redeeming quality so far is calling out kush, very pro-town move.) mderg (Repeatedly pushing the "ignore the missions" idea, provoking reactions from players while not disclosing any information himself, heavy lurking, generally defensive) kushm4sta (Tunnel-vision on batsnacks, trying to start a plynch, low activity otherwise) Micchan (Inactivity, defensive, no thoughts shared, no case built, suspicious bandwagoning) Mafia-likely (Pink) TehPoofter (High voting pressure, starting a bandwagon/plynch, very large filter, calls people out on buddying while blatantly attempting to buddy, redeemed so far by good questioning of Templar's motives) Oatsmaster (Avoiding all talk about missions, redirecting scum claims towards bat and Obi, not posting thoughts openly) Neutral (White) The_Templar (Good expression and information-sharing, challenges unnatural ideas/thoughts, sensibly pieces together a motive. Neutral because of weak (meta/defensive) defense about his role) Vivax (Strange read on poofter, but otherwise constructs very sensible and well-put-together posts pointing out discrepancies. Without the pink vibe from his accusations toward kita and templar, would likely be very town atm.) Damdred (No real read yet, seems to be gathering information. Is asking the right questions, but not sharing information openly) 27ninjabunnies (Good info balanced out by suspicious buddying/claiming) Town batsnacks (I wasn't sure at first, but after your expose on kita, I know you're looking in the right places. Your investigation is solid and you're providing direct responses to your challenges. I highly doubt kita is scum, but I like the way you think.) kitaman27 (The main source of information so far imo, this guy is posting very good reads and keeping good notes. Only scummy behavior so far is what was pointed out by Vivax, but without further proof I'm willing to let it slide as a poor choice of words) All in all, I don't like the idea of a plynch. However, I less like the idea of scum lurking the thread and hopping on whatever bandwagon is hot at the time. Let's change that. ##Vote: Micchan This is his EoD post where he discusses his multiple scum reads, in this case 6 scum reads with a lot of neutrals. Never really pushes another one and says the bolded which I still find to be really scummy with what the thread was doing at the time. Also in fairness, at this point EoD there were very few people active and not another lynch really being pushed. His argument from obi, seemed forced and a bit fake at that point in the thread as well going into the night.

I was reading you town prior to today, but now I'm willing to put the batwagon on hold to pin you on this: Post your updated reads, or explain in clear terms why batsnacks couldn't be scum. You may quote any posts you would like to make this argument, not just the one you were referencing initially. He actually is starting to town read kush for some of d2, but suddenly hes upset about a "defensive" tone and jumps on him. It does not make sense to me. He does jump off of kush at one point but jumps back on him after some stupid test to see if he could scum read someone off of a mod warning. Then right back on kush even though he was ok with his responses after the ultimatum. Start of day three, he reinterates about me lying, even though he posted about it night 2. But then proceeded to talk about another check. Just mind blown. I'm pretty sure this guy is scum and I think after reading some of poof I might understand what his mission was but it sounds a bit tinfoil. I"ll work on my second one now | ||
