Hi all, been away for the long weekend (our university gave us an extra day) but am working on my way back.
So yes, I probably jumped the gun on claiming for Gloobie, because I had little to no reception where I was and wasn't sure when I'd get back and didn't want it to get too far in the day.
I think gloobie misread some of our QT because I don't see where I ever said I thought joth was town; as I never had a read for him either way. My defense of him was NEVER about whether he was town or scum, only that he what he said was being grossly misrepresented by ash. Which I still maintain is true. (and so that lead me to vote ash for a while as it felt like the kind of distraction scum might do). Eventually, I decided that the push was so hard that maybe ash could be town, and I trusted by WCD read. (and still do)
If you look back at my earlier posts you'll see I generally tended to try and throw agreement to things gloobie was saying. This was an attempt to bread crumb our masonry early.
I still read WCD as scummy and I think the mason claim has really helped that. She has had to take a stance again me, but that hurt her attempt to town read gloobie. So now she's attempting to create doubt on both of us, more that accept our claim. With no real case against me, except OMGUS because I read her as scum.
Lastly, I don't think scum!Gloobie and scumapasta would actually so strongly defend joth against ash's misrepresentations. i.e. those are much more likely coming from mason us who don't know joth's actual faction.
