Think ABR is pretty obvtown. The whole wgeurts/SW dilemma betweeen
74-
75 is aggressive and something I don't think scum would bank on early on, specially if you're trying to gather enough cred to look appeasing. I also like how ABR is took the lead in directing the comments in
166-
168. Overall, all of his activity comes across as actively analyzing motivations and trying to get into the mindset of the players reacing (like
204, and him trying to sort out Seraphim's behavior in
369,
371,
373, and the analysis of
399).
Metal Sonic
I've been giving some thought to Empire's concerns on MetalSonic's lie in
18, and I think he would have reasons to lie regardless of alignment about the tokens. I can see Metal Sonic's comment onto Sotty in
127 as showing transparency of thought process and interest in discerning her alingment. I think I can follow MetalSonic's line of thought regarding wgeurts in #136 as of why it would be something to find suspicious (particularly, if you take into consideration wgeurts himself admittedly made a conscious post that would lead him to be pursued). Similar thoughts with
236, especially liking that it seems Metal Sonic is tryig to figure out alignments. some of his steams of consciousness come across as unfiltered and natural (like
240) so he gives off a relaxed feel which I would associate with town.
GreyICE
I think GreyICE's comment to ZZZX's thoughts in
102 reads town on tone. The point on ZZZX's content to contribution ratio in
104 was accurate and valid. I can follow the thought process to pursue Sotty from
119 and the reasoning provided in
140 to strengthen the read. It feels like GreyICE has read between the lines in sotty's response. Thought his
214 regarding sotty seemed like a very detailed, organized case on why Sotty is likely scum here and GreyICE's analysis comes accross as genuine and unbiased in it. And ICE's observation into Eddie's reaction in
317 seems fairly accurtate with what I was thinking so far.
wgeurts
I liked his
64 looks better, re: the questioning directed to MS and ZZZX, along with
67, where wgeurts pressuring ABR for an explanation for his vote on SilverWolf. I also do like how in
69 he's basically demanding for an explanation to the MS early town reads. I didn't understand why if wgeurts was trying to pick on ABR's brain in
71 he gave him ABR a cop-out to respond to him early on if he wanted to poke him for an answer. I get he you thought that it wasn't enough to change his vote from ABR then, but you did give him an explanation yourself to get out of the question asking him. Also,
139 is something I can see coming from town!wgeurts (Re: ABR vote push), since it's something I would have done to a slot with player I've been in a game before and that I'd have enough comparative meta to use as a reference. (Re: pushing ABR for a reasoning), even if I do not agree with the reasoning he's using to vote MetalSonic which seems to stem from MS's suspicions of him. I do agree with GI who said it looks like wgeurts seems to be trying to sort the game out (even if it's somehwat unconventional). TBH by
296 I'm starting to get a bit bored by the wgeurts's tunnel onto Metal Sonic for scumreading him and would like to see that slot concentrating on scumhunting elsewhere.
ZZZX
Still thinking town, but not as strong as a read as I had caught my impression during my skim.
19 I felt was a genuine town-tell, like a stream of consciousness that I think ZZZX wouldn't have slipped naturally if he were mafia. While I am townreading MetalSonic, thought the read handed out in
58 seemed rather pedestrian. I didn't like ZZZX's immediate reaction to Albert's vote on wgeurts in
76 and
78; especially because it looked like ZZZX is quick to deflect from focusing on scumhunting to use an argument like a "bad play" to vote. The reasoning is less related to thinking ABR is scum and more of a dislike of playstyle, which is an easier route to go if you're scum because it's a mental way to justify pushing a player. I also didn't like the reaction stemming from GreyICE's
102... particularly the feel of a "No, You" kind of response and a reactionary vote and consequent reactionary scumread haded in
129-
130. I did like ZZZX's questioning of Nacho's actions, since hiss comments are directly related to Sotty GreyICE but as he points out, Nacho votes away without explaining where the vote's coming from instead.
Nachomamma
,
I'm found Nacho a bit scummy because of his unexplained shift on Seraphim. I also feel Nacho has thrown in a few towntells early on that aren't hard to fake townread for
38 but I feel like he's competent enough to manipulate enough to use such a comment to appear townish. As for
133 I don't really think it's alignment relevant, as I think scum!Nacho would know how to avoid GreyICE picking a fight with Sotty for instance if they're partners. Of what I read so far, the only thing I'm liking from Nacho so far is
157, as it would appear that he's analyzed what wgeurts had said about to try to understand the MS/wgeurts argument so
181-
183 look like fairly transparent streams of consciousness.
Hoopla
Hoopla's SW vote in
225 and relegating to sheeping nacho onto that wagon early and shifting the responsibility of the entry vote "wanting to help nacho" seems convenient? I find her focus on theory rather than hunt suspicious, but I'm less convinced on Hoopla based on some of the people that have gone after her.
SilverWolf/Kagami
I didn't like Silverworf's entrance in posts
6 and
55, to me seems a bit overexplanatory and like a post someone who's concerned of their own image would be focused on. As far as Kagami goes, in
351 the logic behind Sotty flipping town because GreyICE wants to lynch her looks convoluted, especially because it seems to be based in the flawed assumption that sotty can't be scum because GreyICE thinks she's lying and apparently in a poor manner and if sotty's a legendary scum player then the first assumption can't be true?.
EddieFenix
The stated reasons in
207 to call GreyICE scum seem superficial and OMGUSsy; no explanation for the wgeurts scumread provied. Eddie's
217-
230 look like a Chainsaw onto GreyICE after the Sotty case.
Seraphim.
Still think the list of empty reads in
219 followed by the SW vote feels like easy contribution.
348 I don't really like how Seraphim has then changed his mind on Sotty as the wagon picked interest, just like ABR pointed out.
485 from ABR is spot on on some of the inconsistencies in Seraphim's reasoning to vote. I also don't really like how Seraphim tried to shift the focus of being questioned as opposed to interacting when he said
Sotty
Sotty's
112 feels like an awful self-aware post. I mean, mostly because the entry is about her activity level and a side-comment on Nacho's entry comment on her. Stemming from my limited experience from the Wire, I would've expected Sotty to be more engaging questioning to discern alignments and scumhunting since in my limited experience with her in the Wire, she seemed a more straightforward player there than she's being here. Also, the deflection to Hoopla of GreyIcE's vote on her strikes me like a semantical argument I'd expect from a compentent player that can't find a better reason to vote. I also don't like her reaction to the suspicions in
208, since I don't see how GI has been shifting the goalpost, as sotty seems to be accusing GI for.
