Like what would you consider the tipping point or best piece of evidence to lynch JV? In retrospect can you unbiasedly give the same reason to choose uncrowned instead?
I'm only asking because I hate being in the position you were in and your thought process is usually quite clear and I want pointers lol
I'd suggest have a squizzy at my pt - I made some "the decision I am making is ___ and I am voting this way because -----".
The crux of it is probably that I was comparing a player who had a lower impact playstyle but clear trajectory, which has a ~tendency~ to come from newbtown. not 100% reliable but without meta to assist in forming like, a personality/mindset baseline, I'm comfortable that it's *usually* a reliable tell.
JV felt like, the opposite, they'd had a lot of stances and done a lot of things but their trajectory was less clear and when they were put under pressure they didn't give the impression they were as confident in their reads; this isn't outright scum indicative but vs. the optimal newbtown profile from uncrowned I was more hopeful it'd flip scum.
Basically the narrative uncrowned laid down at the end seemed like it made a lot of sense. I still maintain it did. He played a really good scumgame.
Probably if I'd made a call earlier (when JV and I were on the same page in real time) I might have hammered Uncrowned but.. yeah
my pt will be a bit of a rant but it explains a lot of how I approached sorting them pre lylo which is generally where you catch alignment indicative stuff. Lylo tends to be clashing agendas regardless of alignment. zzz
