I have him lean town but I certainly don't see how kokichi is readable at all.

That's the point of the game, to be unreadable. That's how you become good as town and scum
How do you expect to find the culprit when you're all worried about each other's feelings? If you're planning to expose a liar, then you have to corner them psychologically.

when does scum do that?
Seriously? I've seen it plenty depending on scum's role.

Here. While he didn't invite the investigation, he was able to use it to further his win.

That's not a good reason to put someone in "likely town."

usually good unreadable means hes so good at scum that even when he is so town, we still have doubts he might be scum.

it is not hes so bad at town that even when he is so scum, we still have doubts he might be town

yeah but does his play in that game look even remotely like his play this game penguin? like here he is exclusively lynch/night action bait; in that game he looks a lot more proactive and more tonally enthusiastic

at a glance I'd say he likes playing scum more and he seems kinda bored here

It's still early D1 so I'm not going to make a comparison at this point. I don't believe you read his entire play in that game either, so your comment is a bit premature.

Proactive? He's making pointless conversation and not delving deeper. Maybe he has one or two posts that do things but the others don't do anything. Why is drawing night actions a good thing?

Being bad at town is subjective. It's not my job to worry about being towny, it's my job to find scum.

he spends the first 20ish posts of his iso commenting on whether people have contributed and directly responding to how he feels about people's posts while pushing a wagon... that is not similar to his play here. you can say he only has surface level play, but you would need to show him having non-surface level play as town to argue he is scum here, because his scum game *based on penguins example* looks different than his play in this game

@Penguin so you're saying you have no meta because you have only seen him play scum? So why not look at one of his games, refrain from looking at his flip before you read his iso, then see if you can guess correctly

My example was a game directly related to your comment on inviting the investigation...wow.

p-edit

I'm not sure what that would help? Help me understand your point.

You can't directly quote a locked game, but iso 2-5, 7-17, and 19-24 all looks like a lot more engagement than what we've seen here and is tonally night and day

I'm not going to prove you wrong because the guy has won games he should have lost as scum. And you picking and choosing quotes post game and saying "Oh, see, easy read" is dumb.

He's not a D1 lynch - which is why I've moved on - but your stance on him is asinine.

I cannot click the quote button and copy/paste that; it redirects me to a message saying the thread is locked. I could copy paste the plaintext but it would lose all formatting.

No, I want you to keep townreading me. It's easier to pocket you that way.
