Why do I feel like these two thoughts don’t go together?

You pull Thunal out your ass, who has been talked about by several people as a scum read, so either you have been reading the thread to come to this vote or you’ve thrown your bowling ball straight down the middle while blindfolded.

Then you claim not to have read the rules. Your first post is responding to ????? the voices in your head ????? about the post limit.

I dunno, your whole entrance makes me feel you’re not being sincere

Thunal is my partner.

I believe this

Ah yes epi thunal falcon and marmot are the two mafia. Amazing what you can do in a fantasy setting

Hi Dizzy! How have you been?

Hi hi hi!

I've been good and bad. Well, actually, *I* have been good, but stuff around me is a bit overwhelming at times. But I'm learning a lot constantly, and that's pretty interesting and enjoyable. Feeling pretty good about existing, all in all =p

I hope you are doing well (?)

Sending hugs!!!

What are you learning??

Which means what to you exactly?

Your selection of words to construct sentences in the earlier part of this game were incomprehensible enough that alignment was hard to perceive.

I didn't opt to vote immediately because of the locked votes in the other game. I voted immediately in Holes to dig quickly, and didn't realize votes were locked. Do you believe I vote immediately every game?

I think it's less consequential in other games and so not really relevant.

It's like very obvious that Marmot is mafia. So there's that.

And if there's anyone we should hammer within 3 hours for the lulz, it'd be him. Even though he's cute and very attractive and I'd definitely try to match him on Tinder.

Nutella and Scotty can have my first townleans.

I have a very slight ping from Thunal's post here. Mainly the slight dig at me which is the only such post she made in the first couple pages of this game. Every other one has been a light off-topic comment, or something framing players in a more positive light (such as the townleans on nut and Scotty here).

The thing that bugs me a little is that I can see this sort of thing coming from a wolf attempting to ease into a scumlean, given that the observation itself isn't really something that would warrant a read.

But it's only a minor ping, because it could very well just be a dig, and I haven't noticed anything else from Thunal that's bothered me yet.

I'm asking for an explanation of why myself (or Rico) are a townread, and I'm looking for something more than "because you weren't townie" because that's restating the same thing.

*are not a townread

Rico in particular had made one post at the time of your read.

Fantastic. I'm so happy for him.

I don't think continuing this pedantic exchange will allow me to secure a read on you. Talk about something else.

Epignosis might be a wolf. His vote on Thunal without reading the rules is a little concerning to me, mainly because he told someone else to "Read the rules" in P#125, and didn't do so himself.

The other thing is that he has yet to make an actual read on the game, which is the part I find a bit more surprising, and wolfy.

To be fair, I had also read the rules enough to know the post cap and didn't absorb that votes were locked until it was brought up. My mind probably glossed over it as a lylo thing.

I only know about the rules because Scotty said them.

Not really, but less because of a strategic reason and more because on reflection I don't see whatever it was I was seeing earlier.

Why do you feel like a "fair maiden" being fair enough all the time?

Now that Sean has left, I do think Scotty's townie.

I think his observation on Epi is the towniest thing in the thread thus far. For a bit, I thought his posts fell into the "posting performatively for the sake of it" camp, but his observation on Epi was pretty insightful and while I think he could match the tone as a wolf there, I don't think he would necessarily match the reasoning there is a wolf.

Scotty town.

That sounds great, but at this point it is a pattern.

I'm a bit skeptical of Lime Coke atm. His reads themselves are fine, but his post frequency and density are a little low which leaves me a little concerned. I know it's still early in the game, I just don't have a solid town feeling there yet.
