Feeling a lot better about Latias/Latios. I probably shouldn't feel as strongly about this as I should, but the I really don't think scum makes the posts below. They wouldn't want bring unnecessary attention that they were camping the thread for the event to start, and the sentiment just seemed really genuine to me?
I’m around but will be reading on my main so I can snipe first spot in the event
If you have any questions I will answer them after

VOTE: Smol Might
Weakest ISO in the game atm, seems like they're trying too hard to seem carefree, and their only "meaningful" content so far is their commentary around Hectic's potential posting restriction which is a pretty unhelpful thing to talk about.
Farkran always acts this way as town. I'll probably read the game again once I'm out of work.
Guess I need to obv-town to oblivion this game.
-Mikoto
This is so lame it looks like Black Hole. Why is defense the main focus of what little attention you've given the game?
Is it impossible that Farkran will also glow orange, because you know a secret about him?
I don't think we should blow this CO up day one. COs with weak stats have strong CO Powers, often. We don't know what side it's for, yeah, but CO Powers help more for Orange Star.
I think he seems happy! Which makes me think he might be an Orange Star goody two shoes, even though I agree with Hawke that the post I highlighted stinks.
Your interest in his tone at the same time I was thinking about it means we probably have a high Tag CO %, which makes it more likely you are Orange Star. Rad. But confusing since you look like Jugger.
I’m already self-aware enough without these questions pls
-Latias
Hm, Black Hole COs are the most self-aware. I mean did you see the way Hawke used to act?? But I think everyone knows that, so it's radical Latias will admit this anyway.
Well yes but it s fun enough to let them live a bit longer honestly
You're not being a straight shooter. Why did you switch stories? None of the Fog of War on Cappy had moved, you only learned The Searchers don't like your take.
hi farkran we aren't magical girls this time but we can be masons for real this time if you want :3
-E
I hope we do, i still feel bad about the last normal. I don't scumread you as of now so it's all good
Why the latibros scum? I think they are ok, not engaged much but no sign of scumminess yet?
-Farkran
This makes me think, no matter Farkran's army, his matching analysis style is going to be the thing that keeps me from getting BORED! Lots of people just flatly stating "this post is Black Hole". That's no fun! I hope we can tag, but even a thrilling enemy is something to look forwards to, Sonja knows that.
(From my perspective) (98%-100% Confidence) The Searchers (100%): Role PM
Likely Town
(85%-97% Confidence)
Leaning Town
(60%-84% Confidence) Mikoto and Kuroko: 91 is a decent entrance, but it does give off the newer player vibe. (A bit too cordial, etc.) 122 has the same vibe as the entrance post. 127 is a good vote. 129 is a bit of a copout though.
Neutral Town
(31%-59% Confidence; Mixed Read or Diffident Read) Cappy (+50%): The posting restriction is definitely +town equity. I doubt it's faked even if it is Hectic we're talking about.
Latias and Latios (+40%): A little bit of gut with a hint of meta sprinkled in.
Spiffybringer (+34%): Fire is just being fire. Good vibes overall from their slot.
Null
(0%-30% Confidence; No/Very Weak Read) Feminist Blocc (+3%): Feels townish, though Disaster Artists' lightheartedness around this slot is worrying.
Blake X Yang (+1%): 126 is a good point, but it's negated by the fact they didn't do anything to redirect the conversation. Their reads worry me though as they are basically the opposite of mine.
egospray (-8%): First several posts are doing pretty much nothing.
Imperium (-9%): Not fond of entrance posts like 190.
Neutral Scum
(31%-59% Confidence; Mixed Read or Diffident Read) Dispair Night (-40%): 49 is a poor first impression. 123 is obnoxious, and it is something I can see scum doing.
Disaster Artists (-47%): 70 is something scum would say. 79 strikes me poorly as well. Too buddy-buddy for my tastes. Despite what they say, 181 *is* overly pedantic.
Leaning Scum
(60%-75% Confidence)
Likely Scum
(76%-100% Confidence)
Players are placed in different sections based on my confidence in the read expressed as a percentage. A positive percentage indicates that I leans towards town on a player whereas a negative percentage indicates I lean towards scum on a player. Please note that the Null section contains both townreads and scumreads, and you must look a the sign of the percentage in parenthesis to determine which way I lean.
Confidence ratings are rough estimates (and somewhat arbitrary) and are relative to one another. In addition, they tend to be scored on a quadratic scale versus a linear scale; in other words, the difference between 0% and 30% tends to be less than the difference between 30% and 60%.
Disclaimer: These reads reflect my reads and not those of my hydra partner.

Well no shit that's a nice readlist. And aside from the good formatting i see that we agree on the relevant stuff.
No way. It should be black.

The post I mentioned earlier is not as whack as a Bitmap post, since he fought in a similar way alongside Orange Star in the Battle of Magical Girls.
I've mostly not read the opening dossier about how each CO has disguised themselves. It's more fun to make some mistakes, even if it causes a death or two. Teehee.

Not town or scum, just their usual
Yo, 34% is a big number. You don't have to be a genius like me to realize that's not "usual". Responding to a request for your blueprints by saying you didn't build it anyway is what my Black Hole lieutenants did when they were missing deadlines, because they don't know how to build anyway.
Vote: Searcher
Unbolded, I am not caught up yet and will not catch up before I need to go to bed, so Hawke can continue to move the chesspieces, for now. But if you want a genius's take, this says most about uniform color of anything I've read so far.
Looking cute won't win you combat Nell.
Blake is the easier opponent for me, I think I mentioned that after the Battle of Purgatory, so I'm looking forward to seeing her on the battefield here and not just in your HQ. Your moves have been a blur to me thus far. Are you an Eagle?

That's good to hear, not only because you're likely the player i'm most afraid of in the whole playerlist, but also because i'm happy to see your passion is still true to the game.
Now about hectic, i think one of the main flaws of scum!him is the ability to produce consistent reads, and i haven't seen that happening in this game so far. Perhaps he has improved his scumgame, but i think the easiest explanation is that he's town.
I still want to hear pops opinion on the matter though, and silver bullet's answer to my question.
-Farkran
He seems more likely to be a goody goody than not. Asking whether Farkran's manners means anything seems like a question he would ask among Orange Star, since he steals some of Farkran's attention yet is unlikely to get a promotion or victory for the thing he's curious about. I only started making inventions I can't get paid for after I defected, have you seen Hawke's new watch!?!

Can you elaborate on why I am someone to be feared this game?
-Prism
I think you could produce good reads, which is the good news. I'm not sure of your alignment, that's the bad news. I feel like i would be more accurate at reading pops.
-Farkran
Pedit: if chemist is scum in the only game where i townread his slot i'm going to chew my desktop
If this is Ircher, I'm raising a big huge eyebrow in your direction.
I kinda see something kinda older style from Ircher that's a move I did. Not sure. I'll leave a note for Gobble.
~Titus
The reason why I mentioned Ircher there is because of his reaction to my opening post. I don't think I've played with Ircher? Or not enough to recognize the name I don't think. Anyway if this is Ircher, he's trying to claim some kind of understanding about how I play, which would mean that there's no way he doesn't like my opening posts. People who don't know me usually hate my opening posts whereas people who do know me, probably still hate my opening posts, but know that's just me and ignore it. So if it's ircher then the two reactions make no sense and that's a problem.
This seems like something scary for CO Tammy to try to bring to the War Room if she knew under her jacket she wears black. The message invites everyone to think about who she is, although she is only trying to launch rockets at CO Ircher.
I read up to page twenty and I must sleep. On review, I had two different thoughts on Latios/Latias, but given I put stock in an intel that CO Chemist has Black Hole-like stratagems even when with the Orange Star, I see Orange there overall. Hawke can vote anywhere, but will delight me if he votes Searchers or Smol Might.
"We've drained so much of the planet's energy that
it's turning into a wasteland. What's the point?
Is this prize worth dying for? Is this a noble end?"
"What's the big deal? We can always just fix it later. Right?"
I'm totally changing it back after the game, but I wanted to be thematic.
Ngweh? What’s the meaning of this?
-Latios
It's our flavor
Also this is where I'm just going to have to pick up from tomorrow. I know there are a couple questions to me that happened in the past couple pages, but I've been grading papers and my brain is fried, so tomorrow ciao ciao.
Lash/pops, if you're going to do the roleplay thing, may I suggest you call town the Allied Nations instead of Orange Star, given the plot of Dual Strike seems to be what you're referencing with your hydra?

I am roughly here atm. Most reads are weak, the bolded ones are more solid. The general impression is that there's too much shitposting, and as a consequence i have many more null reads than i would like in a game at page 15. I want to wait until everyone has posted relevantly before reassessing, but i think i can work with latiguys and cappy town for now. I also like spiffy and i want to believe eragon here.
It interests me that insomnia REALLY wanted to participate in the event, although there was so much hype that any participation is mostly NAI.
I look forward to blake's and black hole's reads mostly, and more content from NL+Flavortown

I kinda want to policy lynch this hydra because it seems they're the kind of people that goes "#nofilter" but really uses it as an excuse to be a total mess
Like their posting shows a lack of basic effort to keep posts intelligible and if they won't do that I don't mind getting rid of them. Like c'mon, you quoted my post twice and a post you did nothing with, and it's clear you have a consistent problem with the quoting system. It can be finicky but it's totally workable if you take the time to figure it out.

I've been sitting here wondering why you guys were talking about the restriction as if it were a real thing and been getting frustrate with you all for just accepting that it was a real thing and whether or not he was town due to the pr and was going to tell you all to stop being lazy in the way you were reading him because you should be looking at why he would choose to use the pics and how he's using the pics and such to determine his alignment not mostly that he had it, which I could also have been reading wrong I don't know I'm not totally caught up yet, but it's total my bad and I'm dumb.
I read his PSA in post 207 where he says that he "may" post in pictures this whole day as him saying he was probably going to post in pictures this whole day instead of "may" meaning he is only able to post in pictures this whole day which just yeah I'm an idiot and I guess I can stop deliberating about how they mentioned in Undertale that he was a bit new and timid scum and whether or not that meant that he was purposely trying to use the pictures to avoid having to say things or not.
Unless I was right all along and go me, but I think I'm probably dumb. Okay carry on.

I'm not looking at this from a meta perspective but from a scum!Titus has done it perspective but if I say what it is, I ruin what I am looking for. It also only applies if you're town.

Hi
I see you're tagging with your name now but you still didn't clear up which was which of Beep and Boop

Imperium is town. I'm familiar enough with Tammy to believe that her posting is more likely to come from town than scum.
Spiffybringer is town. Spiffeh's approach to the game doesn't look scum motivated.
Latias and Latios is town. I strongly suspect that I'd be catching on to them by now if they were scum with how much they're posting and how relevant a lot of it is.
Disaster Artists is likely town. I'm not necessarily locktowning them at this point like I feel I should be if they are town, but I don't believe that indicates scum either.
Unapologetically Foxy is likely town through my personality read on Xofelf, but I notably have only seen her play once in recent memory that I am aware of.
The Searchers is likely town. This is a gutread from SirCakez' posting.
Cappy is likely town. I don't get the impression that the hydra would be playing the way they are if they rolled scum this game.
NL, Smol Might, Flavortown, Egospray, Feminist Blocc, Equitable Androids, and Black Hole Defection are slots I'm not expressly townreading or scumreading.
Despair Night is a slight scumread.
Mikoto and Kuroko are a moderate to strong scumread.
Tammy and I are Plusle and Minun. We have multiple abilities, but only one that really matters.
FOLLOW ME.
Every one in the game will be forced to target us tonight. As a result, there's an incredibly large chance that we die. If we do not, then we have yet another use of FOLLOW ME tomorrow night. If scum do not have a way to counterbalance us (and thus this ends in No Kills 2 nights in a row), then lolbalance, but from this moment on, I'm operating as if I'm knocking on death's door. If you want to make a connection with me or if you care about my opinion at all, don't wait - I will not be long for this world.
This role is exciting to me because this is very likely my last game for a long while and my personal feeling is that my town game is strongest when death is assured for some absurd reason. The characters are extremely important to me personally; Plusle and Minun were some of the first pokemon Tammy and I caught when playing Pokémon Go together, and we still stick that pair in gyms whenever we take them over, and the Plusle and Minun Christmas ornaments we have are my favorite.
My request of everyone listening is to lend us their voices and their votes; pay attention to me and hold me close because I will not be available to us for long.
(also please excuse my strange mood, I had a shit day of work and probably drank too much too quickly)
also pretty down with the fact that Plusle and Minun are so inextricably linked as a pair - you have latios and latias but on their own they are still legendary psychic dragons but a plusle without her minun just leaves a weird taste in one's mouth
