Nah. And honestly i found your characterization of me as not hunting as kind of nonsense. I've already got several reads I'm pretty happy about which is more than i was expecting by page 20.
shea, could you talk about the reads you had at this point?
I was literally asked that same question at the time and responded at the time so you're probably better off finding that post then me trying to remember what I was thinking in the halcyon days of 3 days ago.

You did lay down reads across a few posts shortly after that, but I don't feel like they added up to "several". So, I thought there might have been more.

Wheme

You've expressed townreads of Toog and Titus. You've voted (in order) Farkran, Anya, notsci, and whitefire. (plus Bingle, but that looked like a sheep vote)

Did you change votes because you stopped scumreading the previous vote? because the next vote was a stronger scumread? because another wagon looked like it was stronger? Some other reason?

You said something about wanting to townread some players but fearing you'd be wrong(?). Who are the players you're concerned look town but might not be?

1) I can't discuss the STD thing in great detail.

2) A couple of the less concrete ones have popped up. For instance I think I mentioned that firebringer was bugging me, but I don't remember exactly what I was thinking at that specific point in time in a more granular sense. Also idk it was like 30 seconds into the game.

I'm ok with this for now
Want this in my iso and i roughly agree with all these reads except murdercat which is a scumlean to me, and guillotine who pinged me wrong but i will need to check again and i may defer this read to others. Confidence level varies on toog and sigmund. Also i have a lot more nulls atm but overall i wouldn't disagree strongly with any of this list.

Currently unsure if agreeing makes titus town, i see titus being maybe overly aggressive and early-talker from what i remember from town!her. Still convinced that if she keeps this up she will alignment spew sooner or later so it's all good.
You said you roughly agree with this list aside from some specifics, but you also mentioned you had a lot more nulls.

Can you elaborate on those nulls, or specifically which reads you agreed with? You've put some additional reads down since you quoted this post, but I feel like there's still some data here that I'm missing.

I like hopping my votes around to different people when I play. I don't have many strong scumreads yet at all though. Hopefully my votes/people voting me help me find stronger reads. I didn't like Farkrans iso so I voted him. Anya's posts just seemed like coasting/ LHF scum but apparently that's how they always post/play. WhiteFire is actually a scumread of mine because I think this is is how scum firebringer plays even though Im not totally experienced with scum fire. Players im concerned about are you/TSQ/Lady currently.

I don't think I've ever seen a post called all three of insightful, not subtle, and rhetorical before.

Could you explain some?

Is there that much more to explain? Guillotina brought up a valid point that I hadn't thought of, and I would guess that a lot of other people hadn't thought about it either, because I'm usually pretty good about this stuff. Therefore it was insightful.

But also, because of the way it was phrased, it was a blatant request for role information from Sigmund. If it was a scum rolefishing tactic, it wasn't subtle. Since that's not a request town would generally make, I'm assuming it was probably a rhetorical question (the intent was to point out the possibility rather than actually expecting an answer).

I don't recall a ton from before my V/LA, and my reads are usually not good while in catchup mode. Take them with several grains of salt.

What did you dislike about Farkran's iso?

I'm not sure what the "this" is in FB's play.

So us/TSQ/LLD are paranoia reads? Are there specific things in our play that concern you?

It may feel like it, but I'm not trying to nitpick you to pieces here. I'm trying to get inside how you're processing the game.
