I know you dropped the phrase "tonal memes read" but it doesn't even make sense really, just seemed super awkward in general. And then to have PZelda flip mafia, and have you make that post at a time when they weren't picking up much heat (and thus *your post was more likely to disappear into the ether assuming PZelda would have survived for longer than he did)... just oof.



What about scumreads? You see the great majority of us going through the thread and POEing it down, or at least trying to. There are obviously some disagreements over exact placements (dya, merl1n, etc), but if you're town you're in the unique position of knowing that the general consensus is incorrect at some point besides you. Who do you think we should be lynching instead of you today?
I thought that that specific choice of word made it more believable that he had actually read the post more than once, which is something that I thought town would be more likely to do. 'Thrice' is quite an archaic word so I would feel like, if someone actually went out of their way to read a post more than once, they would also go out of their way to choose fancy words.

Yyyeah it's only when I actually type this out that I realise how absurd it sounds

*: It's not like I was intending for that post to go unnoticed. I would have been able to give that explanation at the time if anyone had asked me about it when it was new.


As I said to ladd earlier, my GTH scums are Csargo and Cuth... possibly dya as a plus-one. The problem I see now though, as I type this, is that really I'm just going with the consensus on you/ladd/Zack.
