Mech informs social reads.
We can’t trust mech to straight-up give us the answers, but we can analyze how people respond to the purported mech.

Specifically, gummy, I think you’ve made a lot of promises of content (quoted below) while your actual content posts are all either hedgy or restating things that have been already said.

It’s also a mechanical read. It would not exist without the mechanics of the game. It is based on an innochild announcement.
You’re using a definition of “mechanical read” that is not the same as the one I use. And it’s also not the same as what I’m used to seeing whatsoever.
For example, you could have used the Innocent Child reveal on a contentious slit to generate reads, to see how people would respond to that slot being “confirmed town”.
We’re not asking you to blindly trust mech, but that doesn’t mean it’s inherently useless. We can find meaning in how it shapes discussion.
Meowls ability created a situation where we socially read it
Im not saying to not make social reads. Maybe i just got paranoid that people would blindly trust town IC reveals in a bastard game. Perhaps unfounded paranoia, i dunno
It remains true!
question mark why did you do this
for some reason you using an exclamation mark there also scares me

Ok, I think this is just a miscommunication.
We’re not townreading meowls for the clear in and of itself; we’re townreading them for the use of their ability in a towny manner with solid progression to back it up.

Also, even pure-mech reads like greenchecks and innocent child announcements aren’t useless just because they can be wrong.
Take a hypothetical: a role that goes “cop, but you roll a 6-sided die, and you get a false result if you roll a 1”, players this role greenchecks are still >rand town and players it redchecks are still >rand wolf. There’s still useful information there.
I don’t expect this game to be so bastard that mechanical revelations are all =rand.
You keep implying that there’s no way we can investigate this information and take it into account without blindly trusting it. Mechanical reads don’t mean “hardclear a player forever”, it can mean “if you’re torn between executing two equally wolfy players and one is greenchecked, go for the other”. It can mean “avoid executing a player D1 becuase they have good mechanics going for them”.
You’re thinking in an overly black-and-white manner here. You’re acting like people in this game are… frankly, a lot dumber than they actually are? You’re acting like townreading somebody off mech means complete, 100% blind faith. People can make nuanced reads, they can take things into consideration without blindly following them.
Frankly, I’m slightly insulted by it

I think you should leave and let on while no mistakes are actively being made, no need to worry before it 
and when people start doing the mistake that’s when you spam swear words at them and tell them to leave mafia forever
