Feel good about Mac, Hally, and Ted

Feel bad about Tim, Alison, tutuu, Nook and Hazelnut.

I don't recall why I felt that way about Tim, but something was off.

Nook and Ali were in a strange bucket of (maybe TMI) from them, the counter argument being "TMI may not exist in this game as scum may be hunting the rogues."

Tutuu felt off and angling was weird.

I don't remember what red flagged me on Tim.

Hazelnut felt detached.

This is a post perfectly structured for someone who rand mafia.

You disapprove?

You feel disapproved?

I do. Perhaps you do tell me why the structuring is that of a rand mafia?

The latter. It wasn't a slip or anything, just a lot of stars aligning in a way that raises her wolf equity pretty high.

JPIC, can you point me to a game on the syndicate where you were town?

Alison wrote: ↑Tue Sep 01, 2020 11:48 am Oh, and on that post - @Master Radishes, various members of the towncore have found their way to townreading or at least giving a D1 pass to each person in that post you called out as "probably independent townies getting boxed into mischop territory". I hope that reassures you that we're still actively re-evaluating and sorting people, and not just coasting along in a big circlejerk and trampling over everyone else.

so basically from what I was trying to read about forming town circles early on, in some game I saw the town forming an amazing huge group of confirmed townies. they lynched an scummy person who was town,the vig shot someone from town core they were mafia. and the next day the towns were all doubting each other. I think re-evaluating is a must. and tbh, I'd like re-evalute those who were super towny at first but then they just stopped caring. cause i think that's a scum approach .

Oh wow.

Justplayingitcool is voting for himself. Is he doing that to get votes off him?

@Poison Chan yes, I approach mashes the same way as regular games. The biggest difference is that I'm more willing to just shoot lhf/slankers in mashes during ITAs

@tutuu about herm - I don't remember which read they were talking about but their reasoning was almost certainly villaging. I'll see if I can find it for you

so does that mean you'd lynch slankers in the regular games? how do you feel about dizzy??

i really don't get the townreads on dizzy, so probably

Herm wrote: ↑Tue Sep 01, 2020 12:08 pm Oh wow.

generally, I gind self votes as scummy. but idk JPIC probably trolling regardless of his alignment?

thought drwilgy was villagery earlier did people disagree?

finally someone who doesn't town read dizzy.

I'm town, not mafia, not rogue. If I was scum there wouldn't even be a towncore I would have destroyed it already.

What I am doing is coasting off of early townreads

sprityo's beetlejuice is noted.

If nutella is scum what the hell are her buddies doing? Are they just leaving her to twist in the wind when there are viable counterwagons to push? I'm getting cold feet.

Because she's your teammate?

Don't be absurd. If I wanted to dismantle the nutella wagon, I could have. I'm on it and I gave some very detailed analysis of why it was the correct choice. I'm just pointing out something that makes me uncomfortable, not saying we should all switch to JPIC.

Just poking you. I'm in agreement with you.

But on the other end, it's unsettling for me to have dropped a RVS vote on Hazelnut, slowly grow suspicious of her over the night then wake up to see everyone else has as well. "Did someone take my RVS and put another vote on it to gain pro scum or pro town momentum?" Is my line of questioning.

So I'm reading Juilet's ISO first, and, she mentions she has caught up at some instances, but i do not see much comment from her after catching up. she does not go replying post to post which is fine. but I think she could do better with her reads ? I like the post she explains her town reads, but anything before or after doesn't really ping me towny?

I really didn't get a lot out of my iso of JPIC except a town role did occur to me as I was reading (I'll keep that to myself). I'd like to take a look at another non-champs game, preferably here, where he was town.

also, she questions around for a tiny bit, but it seems like she is doing it for the sake of doing it. like the colin vote on ALison, seems like a easy post to question about. does she plays like this usually?

I think i like nanook the least of everyone here. I have mac as solid villa and my understanding is he reads nutella well, so she's in my wolf pile, too

I questioned his post because it didn't seem like he had looked into her enough to form an opinion and she is one of my top tier town reads. I'm not sure what you mean by "an easy post to question about."

Some quick 1-2 word thouhts about the players (no elaboration, just straight vibes):

MacDougall - Super Town
Allison - Super Town

Samusamu - Probably Town
Tutuu - Probably Town
Hally - Probably Town
Dyslexicon - Probably Town

Coliniscool - Probably Town/or smart Scum
DrWilgy - Probably Town/or smart Scum

Master Radishes - Powerwolf/Calm Town/Rogue all rolled into one neat sausage roll
Timsup2nothin - Probably up to no good

Oddmerta - I dunno
Tedxtr - I dunno
Staypostivefriend - Hard to get a read
Justplayingitcool - Hard to get a read

Dyachei - Suspicious forn the sole reason they're not voting for anyone atm
Juliets - Suspicious forn the sole reason they're not voting for anyone atm
Poison Chan - Suspicious forn the sole reason they're not voting for anyone atm

Long Con - Scum playing the long con

Sprityo - Probably scum as well
Nanook - Definitely scum
Nutella - Probably a wolf or some kind of scum

you see that's the problem, I think you are TOO GOOD a player, cause I have seen you as such.

Those are my surface level reads.

waking up to this many votes is pretty lame tbh im just a townie haha!

reading up, if there are any explained reasons for votes on me I'll respond bc yall wrong and I'd very much like to not die

Ohh, I didn't think about bomb in my read but that would fit if he's mafia (I picked up a town role he might be when I read his iso).

easy post to question about because, Alison is mostly getting town read by players, on the other hand colin is a lhf , i think scum would be having more reasons to push or shade them a little based on that vote? irregardless of his alignment. ?

this wasnt implied by my post this is ur own thought not mine

i think jpic town and spf scum that all

Okay sure but why is SPF scum

cuz im paranoid of spf's scum game and i dont see her being obv town and i dont find myself nodding along as im reading her posts as i did in her 2 champs games and from my perception shes making simple reads and simple posts and idk maybe im expecting the impossible and im unfair but i think she mafia and kills ppl at night

i'm vibing with tutuu in the exchange with spf about jpic. spf kinda feels like opportunistically pushing on jpic as an easy scumread and maybe he's just lhf town

think spf/jpic are prob w/v either way

okay nutella, her first 100 posts probably have 5 proper contents? she has thrown some naked reads here and there but I don't see much. tbh I liked his vote post on herm that seemed genuine in a way? she fluffs throughout the game even with 160+ posts. I'll continue to read her.

Whether to skim 500 posts, continue doing ISOs, or just laugh hysterically at Ted's wacky justifications for OMGUS. Decisions, decisions.

If gets voted he blows up and takes someone down with him. Only way to explain the lackadaisical behaviour, general scumminess and self vote

I have decided to take this game seriously so I can evolve as a human being and fulfill my potential and unleash my ultimate power

No more will you have a troll-esque jpic that makes wise ass jokes, and instead will have a more stoic bender.

Question: why do we keep brandishing out rogue like it’s supposed to mean something

not really sure why people are focused on rogue right now

jpic what are your reads?
