What is this? A list of reads? Do you have an explanation for some of these (If they're reads)? And why did you just post it out of thin air?

Its reads ordered in the "Town" at the top and each level is where they reside such as duppin is leaning town and middle would be "Null" and the bottom is scum.

They are a terrible way to organize thoughts.

If it's something else then idk lol.
Its word choices and tone.
First off lets show case it:
. Postie's FA suspicion just doesn't seem like something scum
would do right now.
This rings of awareness of what scum is likely to do in a certain scenario and words "right now" bring attention that they could act in this way, but aren't doing it yet.
Aris is getting run up, there's some heat on me, FA is probably getting looked upon favorably because of the Aris wagon.
Hyper awareness of the situation. Scum are usually the most aware players of scenarios.
It'd be a weird time for him to switch focus onto FA under no pressure as scum. It just feels genuine.
Timing is key in this section. The idea is that they are aware of what will and won't look good for scum to do in certain scenarios at certain moments in time. Elyse is looking at the game in the perspective as a scum player. They are not looking at it from the perspective of it in the terms they are town and how scum would act, but what they would personally do. This is what I am seeing.
That... was not the criticism I had in mind. :S

Alright-y.
Is there going to be any explanation on how the middle tier was constructed? Or even what it means?

I don't really get how Ari and IPS/GuiltyLion are occupying the same space.

It's literally "Elyse is aware of what's going on in this game and is looking at it from a perspective of 'what scum would do'". No shit. That's how I scumhunt.

Do you think Postie is buddying me?

Short, crappy answer: Yes.

Long(er) answer: is simplistic and strawman-y regarding Fire's points and a tad heavy handed on the defense. Personally, I thought your Postie read outlined in was a
little
bit of a bizarre position to have in the context of your Ari scum read (why
wouldn't
Postie, as scum, push an alternate wagon that she felt like she would be able to justify?). So declaring you town and taking your side here with Fire Assassin is coming on a little strong and, yes, like "buddying." That is, if you're into buzzwords that only approximate my thoughts on the matter.

@TTH

Postie couldn't really justify the wagon. She had a hard time explaining her read. That's part of the reason why it struck me as so town. The purpose of the FA switch wasn't to distract from current wagons or start a quick counter wagon because, at least from my PoV, her vote isn't something anyone will follow.

I might agree with your premise if Postie were either very green or an exceptionally slow learner but she strikes me as neither. I feel like you're using a framework for a newbie to intermediate-level player on a lot more of an advanced player.

OK, I'll put it more bluntly and less nicely: any scum player worth half a shit could've easily made the post you did. "Having trouble articulating" a read can be gamed by even the most elementary scum players. (I have a pathetic scum game and I do that. It gets town reads, likely because "uncertainty" is pretty closely associated with "uninformed." But now I'm sort of getting off on a tangent. @_@)

Oh, yeah, I get that. I just wasn't following how that relates to Elyse's argument about my push being unlikely to come from scum because it isn't the kind of push people can sheep, so it's not effective at derailing the Aristo wagon.

It doesn't and I wasn't really speaking to that point (but I don't think it's a compelling point regardless).

I didn't say paying attention to the game was scummy? I was saying that Elyse perspective was more from a scum perspective in terms of awareness level and what would look good or bad for those alignments at the moment in time. It seemed not from a town perspective in that they weren't saying the actions were scummy or not, they just said it would look
bad
meaning could look scummy to town players.

You have too much awareness of the player base actions in a scenario.
