So, that would obviously mean that there’s at least one paired scum amongst the warm knights, since I think it’s unlikely that all scum are any one color.

Knight Rose - Who


This reads list feels wrong...
You think Marigold is scum? Why? But if so they’d be doing me a favour not accepting. They seem town but I could also see scum playing this way to look town, so if Marigold is scum, they’re doing a damn good job. I think Rose should be paired over Marigold, whether it’s with me or another cool hue knight.

I think Seafoam is very town and deserves to be paired. Not crazy about Magenta.

I’d caution against some stuff like this. Some players maybe intentionally changing their meta as it’s an anon game or intentionally trying to look like another person. Best probably to judge what a person has brought to the table rather than who you think they are.

I still have reservations from when Gamma proposed to Marigold out of the blue. I have better feelings about your slot after you talked with Azure. You are not bottom 3 in my reads right now, which means I don't currently want you dead. This is a good opportunity for me to figure out if you are town, so I will take it.

I will dance with Chartreuse

Thank you friend! I look forward to dancing with you!

Not quoting all the posts about Indigo as my point is the same for all.

Indigo is probably town but needs to be a replace out or lim. A slot that's not playing cannot be anywhere near elo. Usually town throw tantrums like this, but there's a nonzero chance Indigo is scum whining because his team is losing hard.
I hate this post. It’s a bad idea to encourage a player to replace out. It’s a pet peeve of mine.This post also has stock in Waffle House. Why are you just rehashing the same point made rather than on a new slot that you scumread?

I focus on you because I believe you’re scum. I do not like your posts at all.

In post 449, Knight Lavender wrote:I feel my intent has been mistaken.

My message to the knight of the Pokemon League Indigo Plateau was not intended as shade, but as the opening of a dialogue to help them express what parts of the game they did have thoughts about.

That it was slapped down and taken as hostile makes me sad, but communication is a two way street so I accept that I could have worded things better.
I don’t think you did anything wrong Lavender. Indigo clearly didn’t want to engage on what was more fun when asked so they didn’t want to come back in. It was only a matter of time before a replace out or just no pairing happened.

In post 396, Knight Rose wrote:Hi all. I think I'm gonna try to look at the unpaired cool knights. I think I'm just looking for someone I'm relatively confident is town. Playstyle isn't too big of a factor for me. Lol I just realized that sounds sorta scummy.
Catching up is sort of a struggle. I think I prefer real time stuff, so these reads are gonna look sorta plain/bad. Feel free to question though
Rainbow: Town-lean (Nullish by play mostly, but some positive pings)
Chartreuse: Townie
Indigo: Scum-lean (no content)
Magenta: Town-lean (doesn't really seem to have agenda ig; we'll see later)
Seafoam: Ok-ish (what he says sounds fine, but there's not a lot to work with)
Hmm, so lowkey I'm fine with anyone here except for Indigo (as of now).
I hope to change your mind. I obviously would prefer you choose me but if not me, I would recommend Seafoam over Magenta. I don’t have a strong read on them but I think you and Seafoam are likely town. Selfishly, I would prefer Seafoam pair with Marigold and I, you but I like Seafoam, so I will be rooting the two of you on in case I don’t get picked.

You think scum is all one color? Wouldn’t that be unusual? In previous dance games, that wasn’t the case.

And sure I just repped in, so I don’t just want to rush and make half-assed wishy washy reads.

So far, I like you, Beige and Rose, Seafoam and maybe Daffodil.

That is correct, but the arc of those two reads interested me more because I'm not entirely sure what motivated the change. (I'm biased because I don't really trust you either)

Why do you lean scum on Daffodil? He is probably my strongest TR atm other than Azure.
Stilted language that obscures their conclusions well after the phase it was cute in. I gave up reading their posts after awhile.
What conclusions have I been unclear about?
This post from Daffodil seems to have gone ignored by Burgundy, which makes the reads shift weirder and less likely to be organic.

Why is Beige scum and Magenta town?

If either flips scum, this could possibly be SvS. Burgundy/Magenta. I really don’t like his comment about hating on all of the warm knights. Could Beige actually be right about the RNG thing, that would be super wild.

A game of this size (13 players) would normally be approaching page 100 by now.

In contrast, this game is nice and dense and meaty at a mere 20.

By all means, sing us the songs of your heart's desires.

Can you rephrase this?

If a slot doesn’t get a partner it’s flipped. If you’re flipped you don’t get near elo.

Here is how I'd

Place people

Regardless of pair

Trustworthy
: (People who are developed and very relevant to the thread, almost leader-like. Deepwolf or just Town territory. Maybe one person fooling me? Hopefully not?)

Knight Biege
Knight Lavender
Knight Marigold

Controversial
: (A list of people who I am reading behaviorally. Less reliable but not in a literal sense. Just that I have a more personal definition.)

Knight Daffodil -
Is very independent and intrinsic in their motivations, which is favorable tonally.

Knight Rose -
Seems thorough but not overbearing with what they want to say. I liked it.

Knight Charteuse -
I think they're snappy in such a way that decrees townie who needs to the last word in, but I don't trust it exceptionally given our own interactions.


Unsure
(As described.)
Knight Burgundy -
I liked Cakez' first impressions but I wonder why they were so quick to accept me. I'm aware I am their strongest townread but it felt a bit pockety. Unfounded paranoia?

Knight Crimson -
Seems to be withholding or trying to not play a certain way, with mixed results. Not necessarily scummy for it but I see the struggle and wonder what it means.

Knight Indigo -
Rep out was sour grapes. Replace-in is quick to introduce self, but didn't pay attention to them enough before rep out.


Dislike
- (I would leave these Knights out and think they contain Wolves.)
Knight Magenta -
Exuding colorful energy but lacking the proper strokes to make proper use of it. Has made multiple matter-of-fact statements about players without conducting a reason or something to follow. It's all just vibes and vibes are an easy way to float.

Knight Seafoam -
Dropped gimmick too quickly and assuredly. Posts that came from dropping of gimmick seemed formless. No sense of direction and I don't believe it's just because they're not relevant, rather they are being cautious.

COOL
KNIGHT.
