I wanted to lynch jock for spamming the thread and questionablevibes but now I want to lynch Decon for this post

Seriously, a reads list like 6 hours into the game solidly falls into something I call "contributing without contributing" because it really adds nothing to the conversation.

Ah my bad, I'll have to go reread that bit.
I didn't really read it as a joke post, you hit my point spot on when you say the post only has 1 useful read. It's completely filler and adds nothing. Even if it's a joke, I get a lot more red vibes from that type of post than I do playful townie.

To me, a townie jokes more along the lines of

It's harmless, in the first couple pages of the game, and unambiguous.

I personally strongly dislike decon's "joke" here as well:

Although since it's so early in the game I wasn't focused on it at first, I only saw it again when rereading for the HF post I quoted above.

Ok starting where I left off.

Firstly, copcake fluff

I also hate the constant question asking, Koshi already covered why it's scummy and I agree with him:

Next let's go through the progression of reads on the infamous "decon joke list"


Ok it starts with a question to me about the list being a joke, whether it's a joke or not doesn't change the fact that I don't like the post, although apparently I'm mister no fun and lots of humor has gone over my head this game.


Ok so now we're waiting on my response because copcake disliked that I took it seriously.


So it's "seriously bad" but it might just be "too bad?"

It really feels like copcake is taking cues from the thread sentiment to come up with a scumread here (which they aren't even committed too since they give themselves an out of "too bad to be scum" in case the thread moves away from my lynch or I flip town." Seriously, either call me scum or don't. It looks like cope is trying to position themselves in the middle so that they can continue to flow with thread sentiment.

copecake doesn't even get credit for calling me out for my take on decon (which I still think isn't bad):



Tube beats her to the punch here.

The final issue I have with copecake is the general tone and defensive/apologetic posts:

These are just so... bleh. Townies don't need to defend their behavior, townies don't need to act apologetic. It feels like someone who got caught in a scumtell and is now not sure how to play it off.

I know I said that was the final issue but one more thing bothers me with copecake and that's the complete lack of reads despite all the questions. If you're going to be active and questioning, as a townie you should probably start to have some solid reads. And I don't really count townreading someone because that's super easy for scum to do. I think(?) I'm their only scumread but even that is so wishy washy it's hard to tell.

Anyway I'll go take another look at decon and then try to figure out wtf my read of jock is but for now my vote will be on copecake.
