Sound of Silence-ffery always seems very town to me, this game is no exception. Trying to lead the town and generally being an inquisitor of sorts. I wanna hear from the easier-to-read half of the hydra.
GiF is the easier to read half? :eek:
Cephrir-Odd guy. I like half his posts, I don't like the other half. Null for now, with a minor town lean.
My town lean is more than minor. I hope it's deserved.
Shodan-He said I didn't know about his retardedness when I clearly do :( VERY defensive vs baldeagle, pinged my scumdar some. Hasn't done much otherwise. Probscum
Agree
1baldeagle1-Claimed psych, no counter. NoobTown via default.
Agree
Mac-Claimed hider, no counter. Town via default.
Agree
Trolling Fairy-I always have trouble reading Cabd when he's not obv town. I like what I've seen, but it's not to obv-town status like in some games. I have next to zero experience with nacho, but Cabd as usual appears to be the primary head. I'm going to say null for now.
I'm pinning my hopes on being able to read Nacho. His questions and reads look town, though I disagree with some of them.
Cait Sith-I have little experience with either of these players. Contributions otherwise are solidish. #199 is probably the most town post in game. Otherwise, strong town read.
199 makes up for what is otherwise a confused null-town read. Town
Violent Saxophone-by which I mean Mara. Contributions are mildly weak in comparison to some, but overall I'm getting a town vibe from the posting. nulltown.
Agree
BROseidon-I liked his entrance to the thread. Hasn't done much otherwise. Null.
I'm not sure he's even null, given what he's capable of as town.
SalmonellaDoctor-Others mentioned #222's oddness. Reading through his posts, the hydra has deceptively little content, mostly tunneling notscience--which is something I can get behind, but notscience is also a fucking fantastic bus target so that's like null or something. nullscum
My strongest scum read atm. I may be making too much of post 222.
TheIrishPope-He has a tell that he always does as town. I'm not pointing it out because I want to utilize in future games. An idiot, but unequivocally town.
Agree. :/
notscience-He does this "I'm obvtown" thing every game. He's really hamming up on it this game though. Has about as little content as I do otherwise. His anti-setup gaming is anti-town at best and scummy at worse. Also, channelling his inner-Saki this game and shitting up the place. My current favorite scum.
I'm leaning more null, though I agree that his stance on setup-gaming is anti-town.
Syryana-My role PM says that he's actually a serial killer/mod. We should lynch him. :D
Agree 100%

And your reads list makes me happier about my town read on you.
That puts my reads at
conftown{Eagle, Mac}
Probtown{SoS, Cait Sith, TIP}
null{Cabd, Cephrir, BRO, Saxaphone}
Probscum{SD, ns, Shodan}
ConfScum{Syr}
[/quote]

Town - Eagle, Mac

Leaning town - Nati, Cait Sith, TiP, Cephrir, Trolling Fairy

Null - BRO, Sax, NS

Scum - SD, Shodan

Yes, yes I know I'm speaking blasphemy because you're obvtown. :/ Can you go put on your town dress and go to the town hall and hop on the town stage and do the town dance for me? I promise I'll pay in town bucks, too.

I find GIF easier to read that you, yes. His style is more prone to making mistakes. I think I also got a good basis for his scum play from Rob13's normal a few months ago.

You're talking to half the player who decided to steal the portal jump on day 3 of Paradox Prime.

At some point, I'll probably have the opportunity to remind you of this post.

I suppose I forgot about that as well. Thankfully, unless you're the tracker and claim right now, I don't think there is as much backfire potential this game.

Sorry Im genuinely having to memorize stuff for a Thursday test so I haven't been able to gather all the info I need to post my usual fluff and crud

Ill paraphrase my gut reads from what Xeg and I talked about

Carry on scumhunting until Thursday's over...ill have tons of time after its over

This is a game I haven't been able to submerge myself into yet and follow everything step by step.

The interest and motivation will pick up soon with this playerlist <3

I see what you're talking about, but it doesn't feel the same to me as it usually does, and there's less of it. I'm adopting a wait-and-see approach. Also, welcome to the game Nati, you've earned a null read for solid but uninspired entrance.

Now, stop stealing lines from my old playbook. Also, never make me go read what I wrote when I was 15 ever again. It hurts.

And, thanks, Ceph! I love being null. Null starts with an N which is the first letter of my name here AND IRL! Now, let's go about being awesome nulltells to each other, okay?

I did think you had made the post. The post bothers me more coming from the other head, I think.

I'm going to sleep on it and reread your ISO in the morning.

Looks like you all are stuck with just Bert. :(

Xegarus is getting too busy to be playing Mafia, and he let me know this morning.

He's a cool dude and school's more important anyways. :)

For whatever it's worth, here were gut reads:

like Natirasha, don't like Salmonella, TIP leaning town, Mara (Saxophone hydra) is sorta leaning town/null, Cait Sith don't particularly like (null-leaning scum gutread), really dislike Cephrir (scumread for sure). all gutreads.

Xegarus wasn't sure what our best move was.

We agreed on Cephrir: His 54 tells me he's scum. That last sentence doesn't look good at all.
As if trying to ironically say he's town. 66 is kinda odd feeling too
I like Nacho, but Xeg thought that Nacho always looks town and can convince you that your son is the devil and should be killed.

Nat's last reads list is very scummy, which negates our initial townread, we agreed on this.

Sorry I have gotten a little busier than before too, so I haven't paid enough attention to my games lately. I'll be catching up once Thursday tests are over.
