I just wasted 15 minutes making a case for mastina scum but remembered at the end that Cheeky couldn't be targeted.

I don't think so if Cheeky wasn't an intentional target. But it leads me to question her process and the rest of her reads.

However, even if we assume that my gut and not my mind is correct, we have a 1/3rd chance of hitting scum in this group (

Enchant
). 1/3 is 33.3% and 2/7 is 28.6%. The first one is higher.

I do have some townreads for the bigger group that could potentially narrow down the pool, but I'm not very confident about them. The assumption itself about the wagons isn't very firm, so if we add more shaky assumptions, the whole reasoning is more likely to be fallacious.

I do not, however, have any townread for players in this group (
Flea The Magician

Dwlee99

ɀefiend
).

Which is why I think that my focus will lie with those three players on Day Two.
For you, I can see this being a good group to work in.

For me, I've enough enough all scum/all town wagons to be able to work on that and you grab any 3 players you have 1-in-3 ish chance to hit scum.
So I won't be working in that pool.

I am extra cautious about

I didn't admit that, but I was pocketed. :lol:
Who else in the larger pool worries you?
mastina

Enchant

Yes. Whom do you think is be most likely to be scum from this pool (

Flea/Dwlee

The concerning thing is that I doubt it's THIS easy as a scumteam. Seeing if

push helps my thinking here.
I don't think
Flea The Magician
,
Dwlee99

ɀefiend
is the scumteam at all. I think at least one of them is town. I'll look back at your reads on them.

Dwlee99
(+Yume)


Yume said basically nothing relevant other than stating preferences, which, contrary to
mastina
, I believe is NAI. ()

Notably, they also voted
CheekyTeeky
who is conftown. () I am not entirely sure if this was an informed vote or not.

As for
Dwlee99
, I will skip posts which don't contain game-relevant info to me. I don't think there's anything wrong with making these, and I would be a hypocrite who's criticising someone for vibe posting when I've done it myself. The exception being if the vibe posting actually exceeds the content, however I wouldn't say it does in this case.

I do not share their town read of
ɀefiend
in . It is my understanding (which will not be substantiated further because of the rule not allowing me to speak of ongoing games) that
ɀefiend
is a player who posts rather infrequently. Indeed, they are after a hiatus, but I personally questioning game mechanics as NAI and something that scums could easily emulate.

I can understand, somewhat, the
Taly
read, plus
CheekyTeeky
was town.

I also do not think
Scorpious
was AtE in this game at all. () I have played with
Scorpious
in the, now finished, Open 838, and I think their posting style matches that game. Then again, I have just one experience of playing with
Scorpious
and
Dwlee99
apparently has more. Maybe, if some examples were provided, I would reconsider, but I'm pretty invested in my current train of thought and tbf for now feel like giving
Scorpious
the benefit of the doubt for the time being.

There is an inconsistency between
Dwlee99
expressing doubts of
MegAzumarill
being accidentally scumread (), but also claiming they are fine with their elimination ( and later ).

ɀefiend


ɀefiend
's main focus so far seemed to be
mastina
, which is not a bad choice at all as in my opinion that slot has some scum potential.

I believe that his view of
mastina
expressed in aligns with the one I had Day One, so there is nothing for me to suspect here. In ,
ɀefiend
claims that he likes the thought process as genuine. I think I would be inclined to agree once again with that.

Him refusing to townread
Titus
easily is a sign of caution, which I think is more likely a sign of towny reasoning than scum (). I feel like scum wouldn't come for
Titus
, whom quite a few players, including myself are townreading, when there exist much easier targets to miseliminate from a scum point of view.

However, he seems to be townreading
Dwlee99
in . I completely disagree with this take and I'm baffled as to why
Dwlee99
's entrance is so townish and
Titus
's performance could be an old dog trick. Sounds to me like both are experienced players
ɀefiend
has history with and I don't see why
Dwlee99
wouldn't be capable of old dog tricks.

The six posts don't give out a lot, but it's still more than I thought.

Flea The Magician


Fae threw two votes early in the game (, ). It raises an eyebrow, but it's not uncommon amongst townies in RVS, so I wouldn't raise that eyebrow too high.

Their read of
mastina
resulted in a vote, while, in contrast,
ɀefiend
withdrew. I also didn't like the way that wagon formed so fast. The main drives of the wagon were, if I remember correctly,
MegAzumarill
who is conftown.

Then again, I do think it was an easy vote to make, as
Taly
pointed out in .

I don't see how he fact that
mastina
made a big effort in doing what she did is a scum tell like at all, in fact I would say it's a townlean (referring to ).

But
the rest of the post seems to be questioning the method
mastina
used to great lengths and I'd say that's a town point for fae.

While
MegAzumarill
ultimately withdrew from the wagon, fae stayed on it for a bit longer. Not sure if this alignment indicative. If made as town, shows strength of conviction. If scum, shows clutching to the last good anchor point they could find.

As for the
Enchant
read, I partly agree that this slot has scum potential and so I don't think I need to expand on this any further.

Afterwards, they seem to have... deflated a bit, but I would treat that as NAI.

Of all those three, I'm most comfortable voting
Dwlee99
, I can pressure
ɀefiend
and I think I want to leave
Flea The Magician
for the time being.

I can buy
Flea The Magician
being town, getting very passionate and making a point fae strongly believe in and then having less motivation to carry on.
Flea The Magician
is the one out of these three that has the highest potential of being town in my opinion.
ɀefiend
is more null, there's not nearly enough yellow flags here.
Dwlee99
in my opinion has the most potential of being scum in this group.

VOTE: Dwlee99
