Dusk feels...off
Idk if it's a bad kind of off or just a regular off as in like, "off his game" but it's there. I'm meta reading here tbh but something about that post read tonally different from how I felt he was last game, like, more hedgy than normal?
I don't agree with his read that former was willing to follow hal because I saw no such behavior, though his assertion that former has actually been quiet active but not really posting anything of substance is fair, at least. I hardly even remember former's posts

This post is scummy
Oh, I see. That's fair, I'd say that's where I'm at now too with him
This is half related to my above post but half not.
being real, I just haven't felt like playing mafia today so I've been dicking around and doing what I want and planning to go back when I felt like it and actually playing. Then I got scumread for it so it was like, fine I'll stop for the meanwhile and come back to earn that TR

meh i tonally tred him because my mind went back to 2d3 where his d1 was almost contentless and a pretty memey tone and he was town there
i think it'll be obvious to see what's up if/when we get to see more content from him
vote 3P1K
ew
this is an extremely unimpressive entry given 3P1Ks previous games on this site
that or 3P1K just spent like <10 seconds on each page because i don't necessarily SR viper and don't remember actually saying so. here's what i actually think of viper.
using meta for this, the push on viper gives me eerie vibes to other scenarios in previous games; namely
the push on me in matrix 14(last game)(pushed by: dusk, inferno)
the earlier push on inferno in matrix 14(last game)(pushed by om room)
the small push on viper on reinforcements(pushed by hal)
the push on viper in 2d3 (pushed by hal, dusk, nuxl)
the small push on leet in greek mythology (pushed by texas)
do you see a pattern in all of these? meta tells suggest that 80% of the time the person being pushed is town aligned and that most of the time the people pushing the wagon seem to be town. while that's not a guarantee, "The Case of the Overdefensive First 5 Page Victim" i believe tends to lean in viper's alignment this favor this game.
i think that level 1-2 scum are more reluctant to commit to early interactions because they're worried of something tripping on them later on, which is why (reading it over again) i find it more likely that viper's just catching misguided flame.
what really bothers me is if the substance behind the pushes are bad.
this post irks me in the sense that i think this misconstrues something that isn't there. something something tunnel vision and hypocrisy favoring town but i don't think scum!texas is a stranger to pushing people for awkward reasons(read: hope+1 on dusk) especially with a partner.
caff's park vote into dip is a little awk too; but I put caff in my Weird Towns alongside inferno, leet if i ever played with him and dusk(maybe not after last game though). maybe i am giving the guy too much credit though
caff and texas might have partner equity provided one is scum?
pedit: i would think scum!viper after last game would be more calculated so badgering him on this reason is very erm and uh to me given i don't think there's any reasonable expectation scum!viper thinks there would be a hammer there in any way
town buddy, what do you mean when you say bussing viper
asek is pretty town in the sense that his entrance was very strong, admirable, and amazing ala greek myth.
viper townlean in the sense that his response was kinda pure and it's more likely he's just town reacting extreme pressure. this read will change in the negative for him if he becomes useless post mid d1 like in 2d3 because i'm really not looking forward to getting vla excuses about being gone from the game for a full ingame day and a half
a decent amount of FH's posts are kinda antitown and filler for someone of his level. i dont think i've read a game where he's shitposted so much as either alignment? it's almost policy lynch territory really
so like, what are you doing about that? why do you think people are voting for you?

these reads in particular from dusk are kind of awkward? i would expect him to be more confident in them. if you're town please don't regress back to your 2d3 play, i don't want to have to put you in my Weird Towns IF They're Town pool again.
wanna talk about their slots then? what makes you plant a TL on them? what arguments could you see for either alignment?
calling him scum and pressuring/lynching him
like as in you think viper is scum? since if you don't bussing isn't the right word there
for me,
at a glance hal seems to be taking a step back in this game which is weird since he seems to be on top as either alignment. i probably lean town on his slot in the sense he generally tends to tunnel the fuck out of people as scum and hasn't done so?
i don't see why texas is conftown at all in fact i sl him for now. fighting with viper straight off the bat seems a bit awkward in the sense that reinfrocemetns and 2d3 has led me to beleieve he takes a more reserved playstyle as town and wouldn't really go for the jugular like this. if someone who has more experience with texas scum wants to enlgihten me on this please feel free
that beign said the interaction in general makes me think texas flipping scum means viper is town, but viper flipping town has no bearing on texas's alignment (same goes for the other people pressuring him, caff and om room? am i missing any1?)
i cant believe this post is real
what do u expect from town and scum fh? you've played w him in invitational so you probably know his scum meta more. this is the first gmae where i've actually had to read him lmfao
scum fh has done stupid ate / 'ya idgaf' shit in the past and their first posts looked like they had no idea what to post but wanted to look like they did
town fh says really weird / obscure shit crackpot theories often and usually towntells well enough
im not really good at describing my meta of others
