idk i just get this gut feeling that this is the slot to kill today
probably fueled by confbias and hindsight bias while reading that game but he does not really feel the same to me

like one thing i can kind of articulate
every single thing midwaybear has stated here is like, an opinion, a narration of his own mindset
not once has he like, tried to question anyone or interact with anyone or solve people, granted he's not had that many posts but it feels survivalistic
in chromatic ascension, it felt he was more engaged in that and asked people questions and opened to others for input, etc
makes me feel like he's more interested in surviving this game and faking a trajectory rather than actually playing the game here
i guess that's part of what makes me think he's null and lifeless this game too

he's being reactive rather than proactive
and he's been proactive in like every town game ive seen him in so far including chromatic ascension
i think he's good enough at scum at this point to fake trajectories but im kind of missing the engagement here
and i think this is something that actually i can catch early on because in a game with a fun plist like this i don't see why you wouldn't be trying to interact
idk im sort of getting a little excited that ive noticed this lol imagine me being totally wrong.

I think we should actually be careful of this. I think the lack of meta gives mafia a lot of freedom to manipulate. I can see what you're saying though about scum having a slightly less chance of thinking to make a post from that perspective. But a mafia in the previous dance game was initially townread for similar reasons. Looking at Azure's other posts, I can't really make a read. Maybe someone can enlighten me.

I think that Rainbow Knight should maybe just pair up with a personal townread. If she is paired with the towniest warm, then won't it just be an efficient Night 2 kill for the scumteam? I guess I'm wondering what your thought process behind it is. I'm not super sure myself.
this is the most confident ive been in a scumread in a while and i don't like ever get scumreads
i honestly don't even know what would convince me im wrong here even if i totally am and being big dumb

Yeah, well I still feel like you need more of a case then just agreeing with someone

I get what you're saying, I'm just not totally convinced the difference makes him scum this game, if that makes sense
The opening with the serious mechanical minded discussion trying to make some concrete statements right away. Bit about meta numbers at the end is a nice flourish, subsequent posts have continued to be focused on analyzing things, liked in particular him taking a skeptical eye to the interactions between you and datisi
Had him as town similarly early in chromatic ascension based on a similar style of posting.
@catboi this is an early game gutread?
also do you still think he's town? I am starting to become Concerned about him
Yes, why wouldn't it be an early game read? I could do the lazy thing and go "vibes" but I tried to actually justify it
I've not really seen anything terribly concerning from him thus far and he seems to be unafraid in putting forth opinions, what are you actually oncerned about with him? If you're going to say "low volume" that's a super lazy read
- i was objecting more to the gut read bit, not the early game bit, since it seems more nuanced than just a gutread, but fair enuf
- its not even the volume so much as what he is choosing to comment on is sort of weird; he feels very much on the sidelines and his comments are just kinda there but he isnt really interacting with people much or following up on things. Its not exactly iioa but like kinda similar and i'm bucketing in the same *type* of analysis as iioa. I think its easier for scum to interact with the thread this way
