I'm not arguing about the absolute accuracy of these conjectures, rather how they compare against other tells.In post 623, Cat Scratch Fever wrote:It's easy to conjecture about what numbers scum would pick, but it's not particularly helpful - and their conjectures aren't necessarily accurate. I've seen all 3 scum pick double digit numbers for the express purpose of avoiding number collision, which did end up working out to scum's benefit. This kind of setup spec (or draft spec, specifically) read more like busywork to me. And consequently, giving him a townread in 202 seemed premature.
Consider:
"I think X is towny for doing <Y> early in the game!"
"But scum can easily do <Y>"
Any
possible value you can fill for <Y> can be faked by scum and thus not necessarily accurate, especially in early game. That doesn't diminish the value of these reads. Draft spec is busywork if it leads nowhere, but in his case it had already seemed to set a prior for alignments of certain others.

I have been signing all my posts -Harvey; are you saying you actually assumed that one RQS post was from the other head?In post 624, Gamma Emerald wrote:Has it all been the one head?

I suppose you can say that, but it's not like he voted anyone in his scumpool by that point. How could you tell he was going to follow throughm, or if the draft spec reads even meant anything to him?

I guess I just don't see those posts as AI

I don't really expect immediate consistent follow-throughs but I did assume that would factor into his play in a more meaningful manner, hence my question to him earlier on his Gamma vote when House pointed that out. I don't think that was an unreasonable assumption at that point.In post 629, Cat Scratch Fever wrote:I suppose you can say that, but it's not like he voted anyone in his scumpool by that point.

Yeah I suppose that's fair. It was an early read.

Our posting styles are also different (evidenced by one of my partner's earlier posts), and my partner also packs more content into single posts. This kind of hasty assumption feels unexpected from you.

House, why did you move away from your main on Wake? I thought your playstyle there was quite smooth and buttery

In post 612, Harvey and Haley wrote:Thor did state it, but likely only as an observation of interest. Draft positions are heavily randomly determined, as opposed to number picks - so I doubt that Thor actually places any stock in that.

Sorry that's a wild tangent. My enchant thought was a lot less interesting.

I don't know, she feels off. My reads are primarily stewed in the gut, especially early, so I can't explain further
Posted: Wed Aug 25, 2021 8:52 pm
And the numbers make her a much better vote than Gamma
