the whole idea of town in day 1, or atleast in my understanding and playstyle, is to identify other townies and throw scum in PoE. when u say X player did this post "Y can be town, but they can be scum too" its something a townie can drop in the thread to give their initial read on player Y, and see how they react to it, then continue developing on that read as a way to build up a town pool. the only time, and i cant stress this enough to you, when that post is scummy is if the person that said it just leaves it as it is and doesnt build up on it. at that point yea, they r just feigning contribution and leaving a blank post in the thread that cant be tracked back to them because it doesnt really add any value. its posts like this that u cant look at alone ratched. u need to look at my entire posts as one context and see is it towny or not. do not just pick one or 2 and tell me this is towny, this isnt. u dont know what motive i have in mind unless u read the whole story. i am here moving the game forward and making interactions with players INCLUDING town reading players. i have made more than one post like the post i made about fuji maybe being town maybe not and i continue building on them as the game goes on. SO by that logic, the post is ONLY bad if its left alone and not continued, which is totally what isnt happening here
No Usopp. Townies can attempt tosolve the game by finding fellow Townies, sure. But "you might be town, but you might be scum" is the same as saying nothing. It doesn't establish that the post it is referring to is town-like, because while saying it seems town-like, it also deters people from latching onto it as a town read by giving an example of how it could come from scum too. It's completely redundant, which is why it makes more sense to come from scum than Town. Let me provide some hypotheticals -
Usopp is Town, Fuji is ???
In this example, Usopp has saw behaviour from Fuji he feels is town-like. It's not a strong read, though. For some reason, Usopp immediately discredits his thought process, leaving him back where he started, and then posts it, because apparently we needed to know this. This is very unsound.
Usopp is Scum, Fuji is Town (or Scum that Usopp
In this example, Usopp is trying to ingratiate himself with the thread, and needs this as a launching point. He doesn't want other people to town read Fuji, because that would make Fuji harder to potentially mislynch, but he wants to have a post he can point back to later on if people feel like Usopp isn't really looking at who could be town. This makes sense as scum play. Also, if Fuji ends up dead, Usopp has an "accurate" read to his name, which would potentially give his other reads more credibility.
Usopp is Scum, Fuji is Scum (with Usopp)
In this example, Usopp is trying to kill several birds with one stone. He is putting out content with a partner of his, because avoiding partners is a giveaway if one of the two flip scum, but he also doesn't want to go too far with town reading his buddy, because if he does, then his reads may later be called into question should Fuji be lynched or killed. This way, if someone points back to this post, Usopp can point out he acknowledged it could come from scum.
I've actually thought through all of these before I said anything, which is why my conclusion is "this comes from scum".
