Scumreading someone for not claiming unprompted D1 is nuts by any standard, including Neon standards.

Yeah I know what it is, that doesn’t mean I like it. Not claiming unprompted D1 is a pro-town act anyway, so I’m not too inclined to care. Even if he is scum, scum!Neon isn’t the kind of player you need to rush into a lynch on, because his playstyle isn’t the kind that threatens to sognificantly control narratives and steer the thread the wrong way. Even in a low-confidence D1 setting we have better votes to cast than meta votes against someone who’s broken a habit I think it’s good to break anyway.Neon always claims d1 as town though, it's a meta read.

After was the wrong adverb. I mean that including ToS he could be more active in the game from now onwards. I don't remember him being proactive in previous games but in ToS he tried really hard to play and he was aware that he could be seen as scummy. I think we suggested him he plays that way in next games if I recall correctly? At least I did.I’d have to reread but that just isn’t true by my recollection. Neon was much more involved across the board in ToS, starting with D1. In hindsight it was an amazing play to do that in a scum game

I will say I’m feeling better about Alice than I did when I floated my initial scumlean. Her play is evolving even more but in a good way and I love to see it![]()

Hating intensifiesIm still not caught up (been at the marina amd playing WoW, dont hate)
This is very true, one of the reasons I dislike DGB’s playstyle tbh. What’s your handle on MS?I will just say re DBD:
On mafiascum, I guarantee many powertown players like DrippingGoofball (who drew the art for the physical cards if you have them) would have railroaded dbd for his behavior, and then railroaded anyone who defended him.
You say this like Neon has a scummeta, ToS was literally his first time by my recollection. Not unreasonable to change things up after that, especially for such a naturally chaotic player.Clouds derptown read on DBD I think doesnt give DBD enough credit. In ToS I thought he was way more probtown. I cant wrap my head around his Neon read: Neon is acting like his scum meta, but hes probably a better player so hes town(??). Or null read(??)
There’s a difference between townread and townlean! Townreading imo is “This person’s posting has lead me to confidently believe they are town” Townleaning is “at this point I feel this person’s posting gives off towny vibes.” So in no way did I read M2H as town, I was meta-analyzing and felt that M2H’s posts felt in character. By the way, after that post I had shifted my view on M2H. I don’t like how you feel that just because I disagree with you I’m a different alignment, but that’s not indicative of alignment rn.
Anyways, the world doesn’t revolve around me so reads!
1. StupidFlandrs48- NEUTRAL: I don’t really know how to read Flandrs really but he feels genuine so idrk
2. AngryPidgeon- NEUTRAL: I don’t really vibe with his posting and if this was me a couple of months ago I would tunnel on him but I’m a changed man
3. Lechen - TOWNLEAN: On the other hand, I do vibe with Lechen’s posting, while it is a little mechanics postings I think that very towny in general
4. Duskfall98 - TOWNLEAN: I would say this is my closest townread, Dusk is kinda doing his own thing which kinda contradicts his scummeta
5. pulsar512b - NO READ: yes I said I scumleaned her yada yada but she has no major content rn
6. HydrogenHydreigon - NO READ: I can never read HyHy, psy pls come back, his posting is in character.
7. saberslasher11 - NO READ: who?
8. Alice Kazumi - SCUMLEAN: so this is gonna be controversial I feel like but I feel like she’s trying to pocket M2H rn and potentially she could be forcing a townslip? This is very very light but I do have concerns where she really isn’t neutral
9. Skippergamez - TOWN CONFIRMED: ofc
10. Ehmcee - SCUMLEAN: sigh I don’t know how to read Ehmcee’s inactivity, but I feel like his townmeta is moreso active. I know I shouldn’t read base alignment based on activity but… As for his actual content it’s just mechanics and scumreading bad d1 (which I lowkey agree with)
11. ElectricityCat - NO READ: noob haha
12. Dead By Daylight - TOWNLEAN: I mentioned this earlier in the thread that I felt they are playing relatively like “misguided” town
13. ImaginaryNeon - TOWNLEAN: I admittedly haven’t read Neon’s scum game but I wanna townlean him god damnit! No, but seriously I feel like his posting is towny.
14. NightEmerald - NO READ: has posted once-
15. Clouds - TOWNLEAN: I really like his posting, it’s less mechanics based which I feel like mafia could hide behind
16. M2H - NEUTRAL: I feel like M2H’s readlists are good but feel a bit out of character? Like I feel like they try to just solve more than spam reads?
17. apricity - I am not gonna try to read him this game
I am not reading Neon on meta here. I do think Neon is acting differently than he did in ToS, however.You say this like Neon has a scummeta, ToS was literally his first time by my recollection. Not unreasonable to change things up after that, especially for such a naturally chaotic player.
i think that m2h is kinda just in their scum meta here and has got to go, i wont be around much longer i did kind of expect more activity up to now but i guess people are waiting to right up to eod
