not sure exactly what u mean here. there's no outcome where an execution does not occur - not voting is not an option for the final choice, it just means that that person's vote isn't being used

Every post of hers so far is fluff or IIOA. While the fluff could be written off as early-day posting, the posts I mention feel like an attempt to say something useful to establish a presence in the early-game without having to do anything controversial.

Not enthused by her reaction either, no defense on her part at all, the "good catch" feels defeatist, which I often see coming from scum.
no not remotely defeatist. i just see where you're coming from with that

i'd say that scum generally would try to not bother with pushes on em' early, her acknowledging feel very town to the contrary "yeah that's scummy, keep digging if you want, cuz i'm a pure heart of towniness" ya know?

and i'll check out those posts

Example. 1 person in a bloc of 8 is voting Player A. All others in that bloc are not voting. Is the bloc not voting or are they voting Player A?

Although judging by this answer I assume it's the latter.

basically, i like post 12, as that kinda ranting feels like the stuff that town would just randomly say

I guess this is just a matter of different experience, but I also think that scum being aloof to pushes is a common enough tell that scum know to avoid it.

I don't like your exaggerated defense of her in this post, though I guess I didn't phrase things correctly. I guess appeasement would be the better word to use instead of defeatist.

I would argue that if it is an obvious conclusion it is Information and not Analysis.

But even with your thesis, tris didn't develop off those conclusions in any way. It doesn't seem like she used that conclusion to develop any reads on how scum or town would be using the format to control the game, and if she did she didn't communicate them.

In fact the only posts of hers that really communicate to me any effort to draw alignment or communicate her own was her recent posts (83, 84, 85), y'know, after I started pushing her.
