Twisted:
(?) Immediately tries to skip RVS (
6/24 2.34pm); this doesn’t make any sense, as any info we have night0 that will move us forward obviously involves claiming, and Twisted is against claiming.
(0-) Twisted makes a joke about choosing the wrong deli meat being scummy; exactly the sort of RVS banter that he had hoped we could move past (
6/24 3.01pm). He defends this in 6/25 3.34pm, but I still don’t get his indignation here. I just don’t see how somebody can be so down on RVS, but still want to participate in that banter. It just makes it look like your anti-RVS position is puffed up to be a real hatred, when really you don’t mind to participate in it anyway.
(0+) Here twisted (
link) disagree with xeiron (who thought ash was softclaiming with his raerae vote) but doesn’t find him scummy for it.
(0+) (
link) still has no strong reads, but suspicious of shraeye/ash it seems. Toys with no-lynch idea, to keep items in the game for longer.
(0) Next comes the issue of Twisted v. spiritbears. I think that Twisted really pushes spiritbears to explain a read much harder than necessary. Why focus on spiritbears’ EFHW read? At the same time xeiron was posting odd unexplained reads on people, and Twisted wasn’t kicking up a fuss there. If Twisted flips scum, then xeiron looks more suspicious for dodging this treatment, I think.

6/27 6.11pm) Looking at nkirbit’s reads from ash/raerae, Twisted says that AHoppy comes out the scummiest. That group included chair/theorel/spirit/AHoppy. I think if Twisted flips scum, then AHoppy looks townier. Twisted could have easily picked spirit as his biggest scumread here due to the surrounding argument. I don’t see somebody picking one of their partners out of a group when they have a ready-made case on another person in that group.
(-) (
link) Twisted had been called out for his townread on mail-mi by raerae. He explains that mail-mi’s contributions were related to xeiron stuff and his reaction to xeiron calling out theorel on calculations. That seems really weak stuff for the townread which seemed confident.
(0-) (
6/30 9.28pm) This is strange to me; when I play games with people I know (Munch, raerae) I tend to focus on their posts more and see them as more active then they actually are on reread. Twisted says that he can’t remember points that his brother has made.
(0) July 1 posts seem dominated with more Twisted v. spirit. It looks like posts from both sides were emotionally charged, and it’s hard to get alignment reads from that.
(0) (
7/2 10.28am) When we were sitting at a pivotal point, Twisted voted for AHoppy over Eevee, EFHW, or something new. This is another point that makes me think Twisted/AHoppy aren’t scumpartners.
(+) (
7/2 11.19am) Twisted goes through the exercise of looking at all of the reactions to spiritbears now that we knew spirit’s alignment; he found Eevee/ash the scummiest out of this wagon.
(0-) (
7/2 6.54pm) Twisted tells me the reasons for his lynch preferences; I find it odd that he’s willing to follow nkirbit’s thoughts on AHoppy blindly just because he “has a townread on nkirbit”. He also misunderstands how “lynching a background player” differs from “lynch a lurker”. The point isn’t to look at metas and say scum is posting less than they do as town, but to look at the actual content, and see if somebody is taking risks.
(0+) (
7/3 11.12pm) I agree with this assessment. The mail-mi lynch looked like a clear redirect, and makes me very suspicious that there is scum in (eevee, EFHW, xeiron, AHoppy). I think xeiron/AHoppy are the likely candidates here. If Eevee=scum, then I xeiron is as well, so the xeiron lynch is just as good.
