That's not the issue here - if you're not aware how active a player is when making your list then your list clearly isn't as detailed or as coherent as you want it to appear to the rest of us.
It's an early read list. I'm not expecting it to be taken entirely seriously.
And the pattern continues.
Which pattern, that someone tells me what I "want it to appear" that isn't actually true? Obviously a day one read list is not going to be as well developed as say a day four read list.

They're just early reads, there's not a lot to explain. It mostly means I don't have strong impressions one way or the other.

wha?
No one on this site likes to read the rules
There’s like 1 person who does so in any given games and that person is tasked with slapping people in the face with the actual setup info any time they get something wrong
What rule or setup information are we getting wrong?
I don’t think there’s any that hasn’t been corrected atp
I mostly just said that to give a frame of reference

i think hounding monkeyman over the blurred line of what is 'null' and what is 'needs more info' is nitpicking a little

Why did you feel the need to create a read list when you don't want it to be taken seriously? I agree that nitpicking a readlist this early is not likely to be a very fruitful endeavor. Still, though, it's highly suspicious that when asked to justify one of the reads, you made up a reason. And it was only after that reason was shown to hold no water that you backed down and said the readslist shouldn't be taken seriously. If you truly thought that, that should have been your initial reaction. Instead you tried to justify it first, likely out of fear of being suspected.

I agree, but my concern is with how he chose to respond to the people poking holes in his list. I don't think it comes from town.

I voted CSF for 3 reasons:

(1) I think malc's "oh god 11 pages already" thing is very slightly +scum, but CSF's "he seems like he wouldn't mind the legwork of reading 10 pages" reads as overjustification to me

(2) she didn't say hello to me

(3) *reserved for now*
What do you think of my Malcolm take?

I didn't make up a reason, it just wasn't as well researched as it maybe should have been. I'm sure anyone could go through 24 players and find mistakes in my read list if they wanted to.

But that's exactly the point. If you didn't have anything to hide, why not say something like "I don't know, I didn't have a strong impression of tictac, the difference between null and blue shouldn't be read into that much"? Instead you tried to come up with a reason to justify something that was arbitrary.

i think part of me doesn't want to believe she's a beloved princess but that might be outguessing the mod

my gut is wary of mastina because i've seen her as scum act similar

i think she's actually town but i just said that because i want to be wary

Incorrect. Separating null from lack of info indicates that there's enough to form coherent thoughts. Yet here Monkey can't give even flimsy reasons why there's null versus lack of info, which suggests it's forced/fabricated.

I was probably trying to reason it out in my head.

Why not? It puts it on the record, people are going to respond to it, and it moves the game forward.
