these are probably pretty safe takes but I think I need to tread carefully

I'm ok calling Bins, implosion, Zito and (gulp) probably Baezu town. in this the worst case scenario is {implo, zito} scum i think but this is a byproduct of paranoia and something I'm continuously talking myself into and out of

Idk exactly how to read Reck but he's giving off town energy. That being said in our last game I read him completely upside down so I'm not completely sure how to take him rn. I find myself agreeing with him regularly. he's quick to fire which I always associate with town but I need to go back and check whether he's playing it safe or whether he's just half a step ahead of where I've been for a lot of the game. tentative fifth town there

personally I want to townread T-Bone. I regret not engaging PP on this read before he exploded into a shower of rainbows and hugs. He's actually had some super towny moments I think, and I'm concerned the way reads on him are stagnating probably means he's a viable mislynch which is consistent with the whole flipped town final wishes thing

is anyone reading this and being like nooOOooOOo?

Alch - this time I feel like I have a better sense of the brain behind the posts than I did the last time we played. I want to call this a towntell but he's probably too meta cognisant + returning player stuff for this to be solid. might be over thinking or underthinking this read but tentative townlean

Gif/Ep I have townread at different points but have nulled out on
Skrew/Elsa possible town via gamestate but eh. I townread Elsa more than Skrew here
zor/Maria has 1+ scum surely

I've actually developed a kernel of paranoia about bins, but I don't think she's worth thinking about as scum at least for a long time.

I agree with the rest of that. I also think baezu should be basically first-class town. Zito and reck are also good town takes, and t-bone is continuing to be townier than he was in the early game.

actually now that i look at the rest of the player list i really like that list as a core for now. The only person i'd maybe add is ep. i think their weirdness around me is not actually a good reason to discount the way they've overall approached the game being basically precisely their town game.

pedit this only applies to the pagetop post

if I had to like go wild and call a team rn I'd go like {Maria, ep, ???} I think but idrk. that's also forcibly removing lynchbait from the pool. I've always been bad at splitting out nai posters from scum PoE. love me some tasty lynchbait.

i think 1515/1517 is the ep-town reaction to the current gamestate. I don't think i've actually seen ep scum online but i'd expect the way that they interact with the game to just be somewhat awkward? I liked the way they talked about their reads earlier, e.g. . I like the tone of their early posting. I agree everyone you listed except possibly tbone is townier than ep at this point.

she really hasn't been snoozing the rest of the day. She's ~5th in postcount, and only like 20% of that is from before her claim.

I'm a little wonky wrt. my Beazu hard townread as well. But like in the same way I'm not super comfortable with my zor scumread. just feels off. her reads and approach have been super clashy with the gamestate but from what I can tell flicking thru a couple of her old games this isn't actually uncommon for her

I implicitly DO NOT townread her claim but I implicitly townread her reaction to being wagoned.

hhhhh 1515/1517 are things I'd say as scum but I also revere ep's scumgame a fair bit. I probably agree 1206 is a kinda towny post. I'll try to be more engaging next time she's here :x

i think the last large game i played was like team mafia or fortnight?
I dont know how people do it? There are so many moving parts and posts to parse, like i have a bunch of reads that are just so unstable because i just cant piece my reads on individual posts together. I keep flipping on people like tbone and implosion. I was reconsidering bins but im back to her as town. Same with zor. Zito and reck are town? I really dont know on baezu or maria. I dont know anything.

This is why i lurk

My solid four reads was a setup to a joke, like me being
"Zito is town
Worst is town
Penguin is town
Implosion is frustrating"

or something like that. Lol

I think zor's general stubbornness (both in action and tone) in the face of near constant pressure is significant
In that i think thats likely to come from town
But also he seems like the type to do that as scum
And his personality usually makes him come across more formally in discussion setting which could contribute to that

You see, all my takes are like this always
