- scum-PA wouldn't town-read Mala for a couple of reasons.
- PA is being too aggressive to be scum.
- scum PA would attack Broseidon.
There are various benefits as scum to town-reading players, so I don't really find the first point all that convincing.
I am definitely not seeing the aggression from PA that you are seeing. What are you thinking of when you say that she is attacking and defending people with reckless abandon?
PA does say that Bro isn't looking like town to her, which maybe isn't attacking as strongly as you would expect, but then again you said that you expect PA to start off slowly so I don't know what to make of this.

I think it is ridiculous to compare PA's first 5 posts in this game where she is posting as part of a hydra from page 1, with her first five posts in a game where she playing solo posting from page 173.

Ghatokaca, pointing out contradictions and exaggerations in your arguments isn't handwaving them away. Its pointing out how they are wrong. The fact that you proceed to vaguely argue about them with me as though I am being unfair with you is rather annoying, and I didn't miss your explanations, I just don't believe them. For instance your insistence that Medea is attacking and defending with reckless abandon just looks insane when you point out one player, Mala, who she's defending and one player Bro, who she is attacking. Her attacks on Bro are anything but reckless.

This is a nice observation.In post 1013, bazinga wrote:yeah I feel like you are talking around the wagons that are forming. you are lining up your ability to lynch whomever during this day phase. at this point after seeing you play in this game I kinda wanna see you harping on people esp. the people under pressure <3In post 1007, Mina wrote:This is kind of how I feel right now.

To be fair, I'm also feeling chickenshit about voting BRO.
You have too many scum reads, and your using relational tells between Medea, Ghat and Baz, but you're pushing Toasty while a Ghat lynch is highly probable. This doesn't seem legit.In post 1026, Osseus pseudotripodis wrote:and chamber you're being a buzzkill right now

holy fuck you need to learn when to not defend your buddy. he's gonna flip scum soon and boy will there be egg on your face
Considering that you are using this as a town-tell, I have no idea why you are having such a hard time reading me.In post 1031, Ghatokaca wrote:It seems like he is trying to get the cred for a mislynch which indicates that he is unaware of who the town/scum are which is a pretty slam dunk towntell
The contribution I was talking about was in the game thread.In post 1057, Ghatokaca wrote:He didn't want to post reads without talking it over with me, then decided that he didn't want to wait to talk it over with me because I was going to be focusing on non hydra games for a while.

I read his reads and reasonings and they seemed out of place to me. Considering he's said that his read or case or whatever on Bro is not too well developed, your objection here does't make too much sense to me.In post 1058, Ghatokaca wrote:You think BRO belongs in null. You think that Osseus belongs in scum.
What do these two opinions of yours have to do with anything? (They don't.)
I don't really that that much of a problem with whiteknighting, its the reasoning that I take issue with.In post 1058, Ghatokaca wrote:I don't often pay attention to your pushes because you have a tendency to get lost in tunnelville: when you get lost in tunnelville, there is a lot of filler that does not make a whole lot of sense. I remember you very distinctly accusing F-16 of fabricating a town read on Medea, and you thought it was fabricated because his reasons are shit. That is white knighting, or close enough for anyone with half a brain to care about.
Now where's that filler that doesn't make any sense.
Could you explain?In post 1089, Ghatokaca wrote:And I'm starting to feel a lot better now that that is finally taken care of.

- The Enormous Crocodile.Nacho's reads look something like:
Town:
Chamber
hanzo_5
malakittens
Medea the Alien
ToastyToast
Zdenek

Bazinga
Null:
Broseidon
Possibly scum:
notscience
Scum:
Osseus pseudotripodis
Mina
Doesn't mention:
Ampersand
Looking over his (as opposed to F-16's) posts in the game, they pretty much the same as what he's been advocating all game.
They are quite different from F-16's. It looks like there is no communication between them at all, which is sort of funny since F-16 doesn't want to give out reads until talking with Nacho, but what was there to say when Nachos reads were mostly static.
I've never been scum with a hydra and only ever hydra'd once, but does this sort of interaction between the heads make sense?

Nacho hydrae are special beatss right now because he's in way too many games, just got a new job, and sucks at time management. That said, their play here is very similar to this game I was modding:
