Hi Hamilton Who's scummy?
Hell if I know right now. No one really stands out to me, and that's not a hedge. That's a legitimate reaction to just getting nothing off of anyone. Having skimmed that last 5 or so pages...I'd probably lean town on Bunny, Bob. I have to go back and reread because there's the mechanics talk which always makes me feel like I am rinsing my eyes with sand but might be illuminating this time around.
I agree with your townlean on Bob. Why Bunny?
I don't want to reveal too much right now in case I am horribly wrong, they're scum, and it turns into something that other scum adapt to. When I get a chance to go back and reread, then I'll share more. And again, it's all gut at this point, right?

Why are you townleaning Bob?

I stand by my "marry someone who keeps you on your toes" comment from a few days ago. I'm not voting you. But don't sneak up on me.

Vecna’s lack of substance irks me.

The new individual’s willingness to sheep that makes me facepalm.

I’m goin back to bed.

Why are you townleaning Bob?
Why be evasive if it's just your gut reads? And giving explanations for reads is definitely worth the risk of scum using that to fake towniness. They're already doing that...

And most importantly, if you are withholding your reasons for your townreads so scum can't use them to blend in, why are you (1) saying you'll share more after rereading - that sounds like you're just deflecting - and (2) asking me to explain my townlean on Bob?

Cause town had like 50 posts between them in a phase and the vig didn't claim when he was on the block d1.

He asked me if I thought insightfulness was town indicative after he saw through me really quickly. He's doing something very similar here with bona, but I don't find it as towny this time.

Also, I get the impression that as much as celaph enjoys solving (and is very very good at reading people and their motivations), he'd be an excellent liar and would enjoy trying it this game. I expect that if he were offered a reasonable non-town role, he'd take it.

I don't understand this or how he's doing it with bona? And why is it less towny now? Do you think he's faking whatever it is?

And your second point is not particularly compelling to me lol
