    Ok apparently I'm not stepping away to cool down, because this is the most hypocritical post in the thread. You literally call me lazy, and then in the very next post, decline to do some very simple work asked in a friendly matter by someone who is most likely not scum at this point. Vote: reinoe because not only is your behaviour not helping town whatsoever, but you also seem determined to tilt people to put them off their game.

    I am seriously going to take a break after this because this game is just making me angry right now, and I really really don't want to get tilted.

    I'm not a fan of Zack's lackadaisical(not sure if this fits entirely, but I think it does) attitude tbh, which is why I voted him. There's a lot of posts, but I expected more from him even though it's early. It's D1, so I'm not sure if I'm just reading too much into it or not.

    ATPG is just sowing confusion imo, being cryptic but posting like it has a deeper meaning, and I feel like that's more likely scum pizza than town. He might just be having fun Rping though, that's also a possibility.

    Don't think GH deserves a townread, but I think he's been slightly town, but more null really.

    Your actions are odd, not sure what to make of them. Could go either way.

    Think WH's posts have been good, but I've been burned before and that's still fresh. I'm suspicious.

    Like reinoe's posts so far, look good. Time will tell.

    I've got nothing else.

    Ok, seems reasonable to me thus far. I feel though that right now, Pizza is more likely to just be having fun as town, rather than being scum. I'll probably wait and see with him, maybe his pushes are correct. You can have an extremely light town read.

    Hot Takes:

    Dp101's posts are good

    Csargo's are scummy

    Zack, Pizza, Winston, and Monty all being themselves, more or less

    Maybe, but I don't see any reason to town read him at this point.

    I think it's spurious to suggest it's meaningful in any way

    Well, you're clearly familiar enough with me to realize that I'm not going to town read someone just because they have a high post count because you quoted this post of mine earlier in your 271...
    Regardless, Zack's quality vs quantity isn't very good at all. There's almost no gamesolving other than OMGUS.
    So it's clear that I don't care how often someone posts: I care about the quality. You can't possibly claim to be confused about this because, unlike ATPG, I've made my opinion on the matter unambiguously clear. As for "not helping town whatsover", You're more than welcome to think that. But I think in my 4-5 posts I've shown more determination to solve the game. Or I could make 1/3 of my posts talking about how confusing everything is because you appear to believe that's something that's helpful to town.

    Posting that I am not understanding something is useful to town, because the point of posting is to communicate ideas, and if I'm not understanding someone's posts when they appear not to be jokes, it is very important that I say something so that everyone can cooperate and read each other with minimal confusion.

    At no point did I say "please clear me, I posted a lot". When someone comes in and does one post of analysis that reads like it's a personal attack on me, centred around me apparently doing nothing, then refuses to answer a simple question, that's what ticks me off, not me not getting townread by you simply by posting a bunch. I don't care if you scumread me, I just want you to be consistent, and when you criticise me for something and then immediately exemplify it, can you understand why I'd get a little ticked off?

    Correct!

    No kibitzing with reinoe. Focus, class. If you want to beat your head against a brick wall by all means, do it outside the chess center.

    reinoe plays at his own tempo, it would seem. Snap read.

    reinoe still solid. Don't worry about him yet, maybe not ever.

    That's where you had me last game.

    Be advised later readers: if pizza is confirmed as frighteningly prescient town, this might be his blindspot.

    Toss Manasi in there as a distant third, maybe. Heart just isn't in it from any of these three.

    Might have a fourth or a third party (in chess???) but be vigilant. Lock town reads should be very difficult to get this game.

    If I can get the ones who indicate early, I'll still be too dead to find the really poker faced scums.

    He's only at +3 for a reason. Don't think this is a repeat of that, though. I think I can read reinoe based on his posts and personality.

    The stuff he's not saying he's not saying it because he's kind of like Awa in game 11 in a certain sense, this is what he thinks is correct.

    It's too close to his actual nature to be faked imo. If he's scum he is not indicating it yet in any way you can detect.

    Yeah it's a risk to lock the slot town, but it's a small one. Play the odds.
