Anyway I townread both RH9 and Alyssa. RH9 because as previously mentioned he sent out three proposals pretty late in pre-dance and he strikes me as the type to plan out his pairings more carefully as scum whereas that feels like genuine fear of getting left with a shit partner. His current play is not towny per se but he got enough towncred to be accepted by Alyssa and he doesn't seem to be trying to take advantage of that at all.

Alyssa... feels... like town? I know she would say this is bullshit, and it probably is. But the way she has reacted to the game, especially today, does not feel like she's trying to control it, at a time when the gamestate is very volatile and scum getting control of it would be extremely valuable to them.
And to S_S, why is not trying to control the game town indicative? If the game is currently in a state where scum doesn't need to care, why would theoretical scum!Alyssa care too?
Essentially when Harley has dominated most of the discourse lately. I don't see why scum should need to bother at all.
Wait yeah, why would not controlling the game be town indicative? if town is leading themselves down the wrong path, there's no need for maf to step in. Town is clearly wrong somewhere, that's why Mala, the town, was left behind

That's true, honestly the difference between scum and town fire at least back then was that his scum game was I dunno a little less uncaring. He had a vibe of I need to pretend to be ultra uncaring.

In post 2448, Alyssa The Lamb wrote:Ftr if galron and SS are TvT, then this pairing gets turbo killed
Which pairing do you mean and why?
Because the odds of a scum being in that pairing goes up due to how it came about

Shiro replaced in and both halves just appeared with zero input and without any regard to the rest of the game. If the remaining 3 slots were town, that immediately raises red flags.
Zero regard for the game? If anything picking a person that you know well helps better read them and know if you need to leave.

I have no idea how people were outing super confident "endgame reads" before we even got the mala flip, like, idk, I'd play this game completely differently to how everyone else is playing, and that's why we're at 2500 posts, and most people don't have mega confident reads... Alyssa is like the main person I've liked though, she's felt very relatable with a lot of comments made, so gun to my head, she's town. like, there was a comment like "I should just disappear till pairs are done" and I was sitting here like, yeah same... and not pulling up her ISO, she had other ones when I was like "yep. I'm feeling exactly the same right now" plus her passing on fire when scum!Alyssa easily could've paired with fire, and like, waited late to pair? she's probably town, but a singular townread gets me nowhere here without having a read on the partner, and I have no read on RH9 yet
Most people that day 1 spew ultra confident reads are just wrong 90% of the time don't think much about it.

Really awkward pairings scumside the setup... so it's realistic that scum would look to create more rather than less of them.
I agree with you but dance games people some times specifically join to partner up with specific people. Like me and Fire, this is the first time we aren't paired in a dance game we are together. Usually we pair up about 3- pages in with complete disregard about anything else. Is it optimal ? Nah. Is it fun ? You bet.
It's different having one pairing happen on page three and its another thing to have a yolo pairing happen when we're trying to figure out where the last couple of pairings go
Fair fair, tbh the only difference here is that Mala would have been my partner most likely(Assuming I didnt get the Harley is Nancy memo), meaning that Harley would have paired up with Garlon.

Honestly I think one of them is scum, most likely Garlon,

Scum tend to wait to pick so all lady scum are paired.

Has there ever been a lady scum left on pre dance?

sorry, I tend to just ignore slots I know/think are town unless it's part of wagon building / vote negotiating, and we haven't had that yet this game so I haven't had much I've wanted to discuss with you from my end

I'll try to pay more attention to you, I promise, and I feel I'll have more to discuss now that we're in a proper D1

did you have anything you want to start with? I'm still catching up and dumping a boatload of thoughts in my PT with Datisi so I haven't read anything beyond 2357, but I did want to respond to this while I was looking at it
I mean you can give us your thoughts here as well no?

Yea that's a weird take, but why? This gives me weird vibes because Titus know I town read her like 99% of the time and vehemently defend her, which makes me think she might be scum wanting me end game hoping I will pressure Harley to do the same.

I don't really either. I was asking to clarify. I think that at least, there is something we can all agree on. Nobody should be 'number 1 end game pair' yet. It's never a good idea to decide early because who knows. What if you change your opinion but because you decided too early, everybody starts bombarding you with questions on why you suddenly changed your mind.
Well, it not that really, I am all for giving unfiltered thoughts on the moment. It is the fact that I do not get where the confidence comes from.
In post 3307, Shiro wrote:I mean I currently think SS Gal Ydr and GL are the potential scum thought Harley told me I was mistaken about something, I thought Ydr was defending the SS and gal pair which isn't the case.

Alps I feel really iffy about Titus, I think her wanting me for endgame is weird because she knows my inability to scum read her after a while and it makes me feel weird

I would not have them as an endgame pair. I can understand the reasons for townreading them from most of the people so far. But i'm not in the belief that any of it is conclusive.
Oh wait, Andante said that? Then it’s just her read on me that was probably bad then. I can give a link for RH9 in pair game and let people decide for themselves but I think he’s playing very similar here.

And fake is an objective word. Why didn't you give your definition of 'fake' earlier? Were you trying to do a reaction test? Because if you were, then I feel hurt that you would do so. If you didn't, explain what led to you making ?
I'm struggling for scumreads if slots I previously suspected like S_S (or HQ) might be town, and I don't really have a particularly compelling reason to think you've done anything this game that you couldn't do as scum. I think you have a fair point that you have posted similarly shallow/fake-
sounding
posts as town, but it's really hard for me to look at anything you've posted and feel like scum!RH9 can't or wouldn't post that. The "fake" feeling is that a lot of your posts feel to me like an emulation of what you think solving sounds like, like you're trying to post things you think you would post as town rather than posting genuinely

I've decided I shouldn't act instantly on things I don't like, and that I need to give them time, and then go look into it, like obviously I still don't tr you now, but I'm not going back to tunneling until I sit here for an hour staring at ISOs. Even if I'm feeling bad vibes from people, SR lines, I can't just act on it when I feel like, and I have to take into account playstyles that clash with me. thus time passing should help, and need to come up with genuine questions for SRs to answer. Cause obviously people's reaction to "I think X is scum" isn't gonna be happy, and I don't feel like blowing up the thread again. Like, I will admit I could've gone about my SR on you differently, but it's definitely a valid thought/read I was making in my head

I will straight up disregard all reason if you have a PR dream again. You can come back and be like, “I dreamt that Locke is a N2 Bulletproof Multitasking Cop and Self-Targeting Doctor,” and I will go, “Okay, Locke kill it is then.”

I've decided I shouldn't act instantly on things I don't like, and that I need to give them time, and then go look into it, like obviously I still don't tr you now, but I'm not going back to tunneling until I sit here for an hour staring at ISOs. Even if I'm feeling bad vibes from people, SR lines, I can't just act on it when I feel like, and I have to take into account playstyles that clash with me. thus time passing should help, and need to come up with genuine questions for SRs to answer. Cause obviously people's reaction to "I think X is scum" isn't gonna be happy, and I don't feel like blowing up the thread again. Like, I will admit I could've gone about my SR on you differently, but it's definitely a valid thought/read I was making in my head
I don’t recall our playstyles clashing too much in Koba game. Anyway, what is your current read on SS/galron. GL, Marci, STD, Norwee, Titus, Datisi?

so the "I want LLD to endgame" thing was just a LLD reaction test

please don't say stuff you don't really mean it makes it hard for me to discern between scum bullshitting and town bullshitting to ~reaction test~

but I do kinda understand your proposal a lot better if this was the real angle

The "fake" feeling is that a lot of your posts feel to me like an emulation of what you think solving sounds like, like you're trying to post things you think you would post as town rather than posting genuinely
I love that GL is admitting this, like, yeah. Reads aren't easy here, and so many people are trying to make this black and white, like, it feels good to know I'm not the only one struggling on reads,like sure the exact struggles are different, but the concept is there. And people with 2-3 endgame pairs?? bruh.. Alyssa RH9 is like the only pair I'd really feel comfortable with at the moment, and even then, if I saw a compelling case against RH9, I may reconsider.
It's just super annoying to come back 12 hours later, to 10+ pages of people "solving" and no clear outcome after spamming stuff, so then I'm behind. and I like real time interactions, but missing context means I have to go read ISOs/whatnot then I just missed a few pages of real time talk, so that's why I really want to sit down, and figure out where my head is at, but bydoing that I know it ends in a tunnel, which ehhhh I'd rather do this, but by doing this, I have no read on half the table. tldr, I'm just trying to keep up, Fire and I do nothing in the PT, I'm kinda having doubts on fire, but it's a later issue, I legit thought he'd lol leave by now, also why I've been hesitant to really do a whole lot, cause yeah.

good times, I went on an irrelevant tangent, but what's new?

True but in my experience it’s been overwhelmingly town who does that but he also tr most of the playerlist in pair game too and he was town in that.

isn't it easier for maf to make TRs than SRs?

don't say that to Smart because anyone can just "name names" apparently :P

In Koba game it wasn't all this meta talk... and "read this game from a 3 person hydra!!"
no clue what my reads are there. In case you missed me saying it, I have no reads on half the table...

Really? You’re having doubts on Fire based on him doing nothing in your PT? I actually think scum!Fire would be trying to pocket you in that, don’t you?
