not a fan of Short's general approach, he's got some newbie points but I just..... call it a bad feeling about his posting that I don't think being a newbie absolves him of.

I'm not willing to accept Sakura as conftown because I don't accept anyone as conftown on phase 1 of a game unless it comes straight from the mod. But in my small amount of experience, the 4 times or so times I've seem people have a complete breakdown about being scumread, they've always flipped town so I am inclined to agree to a degree.
i basically never fuck up on strong townreads
Cool, and obviously I trust you but like I said, I don't conftown anyone on phase 1 ever. She is a strong town lean for me.

dunn is in my shortlist of DVa partners rn and you don't like my other contenders

maria/cakes is fine as a pairing to me but moreso because i'm not especially sure either are town

think sircakez got a lot of really easy townreads

notably i do think maria is town but i think it will be impossible to convince town to put her in a top 4 pairing
2019 stats: Town WR 76.7%, overall WR 81.667%, 1 scum defeat involving a major mod error in lylo vs 8 scum wins.

It's actually not that hard. You just need to stop calling her objectively scummy.

?

she is objectively scummy

and forcing through reads that aren't consensus makes it easy for scum to convince town to derail from the winning lynch order

Why does it bother you so much? Everyone was saying firebringer was trolling. Is it that hard to believe that I thought fire really forgot how many scum are in the set up?
I bet Maria is scum this game

Na Maria isn't towny enough to be scum this game~

I'll make them see the light. I'm not wavering on Maria town, she's 100% lock for game I've seen this done this it's in the fucking bag.

Trust me here, if you want a good partner for Dva, I think Kokichi looks fucking baller.

Something like...

LLD/Dunn
Maria/Cakez
Dva/Kokichi

and then go...

Karmeleon/Moment
Short/Chibi
Gamma/Fire
Brian/Celestia

Leave out Mala.

Kokichi's early posting looks really good in hindsight and it would have been so fucking free for him to do the troll thing and accept the invite and play backlog.

I just think Kokichi is town based on circumstance.

i think about non-me 9 people in this game are more likely than not town

i'm not going to elect someone to top 4 unless i'm damn sure and i'm closer to damn sure on those 4 than anyone else.

I really don't wanna pair outside of Cakez and Dunn, RC. Those are my top male Town reads, and Maria's my top female town read.

yeah but trolling implies he knows the count and is acting dumb to provoke a reaction, it's very different from thinking he *actually* doesn't know the scum count in an open game

I know he tends to be way more focused on his personal relationships with people in games than on the actual scumminess of people but that seems pretty disengaged even for him

I don't know him saying he really did forget makes him scum but it certainly doesn't make him town

pedit: guess people are online right now

mmmm

ok but you're looking at 3 people who are inherently scummier than kokichi as potential DVA partners and that's really concerning to me.

Really? On one hand if he accepted and played backlog the first thing i'd have done would be suiciding, on the other hand it's not like he's in danger of being left out if he didnt accept.

You'd have sui'd first thing if he had?

A person who is known for making suboptimal trolly plays as town and scum?

That's an interesting take I didn't expect.
