Here's the thing. Your "read" on me boils down to my making mechanical posts as opposed to hard reads on players. I've already explained that mechanical posts have actual value, but the point is that it's a bad look to accuse someone of something you're guilty of. Saying "they're town" qualifies as a read only in the most bare minimum way. If you want to challenge someone on reads, go ahead, but understand that your own post history is relevant. You challenging me doesn't mean I don't get to challenge you. And your reaction seems overly abrasive. You may not like that I'm making an issue of this, but accusatory posts don't look good when you can't back up your own requests. You may not think hypocrisy is a voting offense, but surely you can see that if you voted me for something that you yourself didn't do, it doesn't portray you in a very townish light.

This is what you said in the first response:

"It's always a crapshoot, but what matters is that you actually -try- and give us something to work with in the future --- the "act" is more important than the results"

and

"I'm pressuring you to make reads -- and that I saw lots of bulky commentary without any reads as scummy. I'm willing to trust your self-stated meta, but you also need to produce reads before I can begin to think of you as town."

So why aren't you trying? Where are your reads? After all, "you also need to produce reads before I can begin to think of you as town." If that's a valid metric to vote me on, surely I can vote you on the same. The difference is, I have substance elsewhere. I actually am trying to solve the game. I don't know what you think you're doing. But to me, it looks like you're trying to preserve a veneer of activity, without actually producing enough substance that anything you say can be tied back to you.
