Why do you think Norwee knows about that scum trait?

there's like a unvierse i suppose where scum-him decides to burn that read, but i don't think thi sis what that looks like, and if he's really that confident and accurate it might be worth it
Can you elaborate on this part? I don't quite understand

I stated earlier that I was 99%. Maybe that's a little extreme? But I'd definitely say above 90% at this point. I want to stay open-minded as it's still relatively early in the day, but literally nothing that Norwee has posted so far has struck me as Town

Certainly in terms of solving, Norwee hasn't done anything Townie yet from where I'm standing. The little he has done doesn't seem genuine

Most people seem to TR him for emotional reasons that I believe to be NAI

luca to elaborate a bit: i townread you fairly strongly at this point
and i believe that you have a fairly high level of accuracy at reading norwee
(you sound kinda exactly like me when i talk abt reading someone like a50 for exactly)

i think you're therefore probably on to something, and i don't know who scum is rn, so i feel like it's worth a shot

i dont' think you're scum who's pulling 'i'm super good at reading norwee and y'all should sheep me because':
- you don't seem to expect you'll get sheeped
- if you were and you misflip town nor you'll lose a load of credibility

for all of those things together, if you're actually that good at reading him, i feel reasonably decent sheeping it

I read Norwee based on how he solves. When he's Town his thought-process and posting is so natural, his takes so logical, his insights so brilliant, and I tend to agree with just about everything he says. His progressions are flawless. Nothing like what I've seen this game. I could go into so much detail on this but I don't want to spoil the meta tells I have

He's capable of shitposting as either alignment, so his RVS play is NAI. I've seen him get emotional and frustrated as both alignments. I will say that frustration is
perhaps
more likely from Town!him, but I really believe it to be NAI in this situation due to context.

That's why I keep asking him to ignore me, because if he is Town then the only way I'll see it is from him solving.

He has flexibility as Town. I actually think he plays Town similar to how I do (style-wise, I'm not saying I'm as good). Here he feels so rigid and lacking in ideas of what to do

Even this which seems ok at first glance, is so empty and surface level. It's like he's politically taking a stance and looking to justify it.

Skitter pushing Ydrasse scumread early pings mildly town.
Chara bringing up specific meta example on Ydrasse also townish.
Ydrasse emotional reaction to being pushed is not something i will base my read on her on, AtE lame.
Post very town.
, sure. But can we trust your judgement to be unbiased? I don't townread you yet so i see this as a huge threat. Fite me bro.
, If Sujimichi's supposedly stilted posts are "all of them" it means they could just be what you see as awkward sounding at all times. This is also proved by you claiming he was stilted in a previous game.
This is what first pinged me as coming from scum

There's nothing good or insightful here. It doesn't have a genuine feel to it. In particular his defence of Suji here doesn't feel real at all to me

And his reaction to my 481 was just weird. I don't know why he says that as Town, and it's like he's trying to preemptively discredit me

if he feels that way every game he probably labels his 40% reads 90% because he feels excited about them

in which case it is less smart to trust his skill and vote with him

Normally it would be on a player I can read well, and I've only been wrong once so far.

I don't generally claim to have great confidence in my reads D1. Right now I don't have strong reads in this game either way apart from on Norwee

Ali is a SR but nowhere near that level

I have a feeling about Skitter being possible partners with Norwee, but again it's not a confident read

In the last game with Noree I was 100% sure on D1 he wasn't scum (he was sk doing genuine scumhunting)

When it came down to ELO I flipped my read because his play suddenly nose-dived

It's
possible
he might just be Town who hasn't vibed at all with this game yet

Now I've explained my read in more detail I'll take a step back and see what happens. I believe if he is Town I'll see it by the end of this day

my idea of solving norwee is to just hardpush him until he cries and then he's probly town.

He's actually much improved, he wasn't as good previously but he was still transparently town even then

Recently he has become a really good Town player from what I've seen

Anyway, I don't want to get bogged down on meta but there it is.

I believe Norwee has been scummy independently this game regardless. I really enjoy playing with Town!him so I'll sit back and see if he can change my mind
