agree with all of this and said as much earlier. I haven't read gad successfully yet on this forum but I feel like he's a bad boy this game
So Gad is Captain Coinflip, as stated previously
primary scum reads:
ekko (performative posting that lacks his special brand of town strategic thinking, throwing a lot at the wall, self-revolving reads)
retro (struggled to generate content on slots besides her own, uncharacteristically shallow and pointed posts when not talking about herself, ekko MQ felt rushed and a response to building suspicion on her slot, potential play for credit)
gad (can't back up any direction he's endorsed or reads he's given)
secondary scum reads:
t-pein (hesitation to vote ekko fits scum meta, complained about 48hr day but dragged his feet when presented an opportunity to accelerate things)
dofla (seemed enthused to play in sign ups but has brought zero energy or content)
feeling good about FOR NOW:
ultra (ekko direction)
ratchet (ekko direction)
tweet (general thoughts)
alco (retro direction and general thoughts)
luka (idk feels obvtown, have liked their post-spam phase posts)
nibel (idr why I had an early town lean here)
xadlin (doesn't seem as paralyzed this game)
magic (I don't see the aurelian angle for scum magic or much positional play going on at all)
on the fence:
poyser (didn't get in early enough on ekko for me, magic vote may have been performative, didn't stick, keeps liking all of my posts)
aurelian (was thinking town but magic has me second guessing this slot)
orca (was thinking town but ultra has me second guessing)
no opinion:
polar
hime
lethal
this is where I'm at on everyone. been procrastinating work too much today so gotta go heads down. bbl. fine with coming back to an ekko lynch.
Accuracy on Ekko is a good sign, helps me ISO what Ekko's motives are. I think we're kindred spirits in a way so I'm pretty confident reading his motives despite him being an enigma to everyone else due to his process. Gonna think on this when I snag Ekko's posts that stick out the most
Fair legacy read on me -I get genuinely frustrated and lose my mind (which ironically opens me up to emotional manipulation from scum) when people think the excuses are bullshit, disenguine because of their read on me, whatever else
With the observation over his read on T-pein, T is actually very good at distancing and I can see Ekko and T making that play. I know he sticks to his guns when something ticks, however, so that aspect is NAI
Ultra and Ratchet are coin flips this game, but I'm more comfortable reading him as town and I think he's an asset when Ratchet is around because his obstinance outweigh's Ratchet's patience when he's scumhunting him
Tweet I feel comfortable null reading. Last scum game I still can't identify what his tells even are and I'm not sure if this is the only thing I'm struggling with. He's my Ekko in sense - if someone can elaborate on the specific characteristics on his scum play to help me cross reference I'll give you my left tit and kidney
Luka is town lmao
Putting some of these slots on a spectrum because I'm undecided until I see further content or town signals:
Magic is scum lean to a possibly stronger null read. Potential for power wolfing is something that's highly concerning. He seems to have more time to dedicate to playing than the last few games which either a good sign or very bad sign, haven't perfected my read on his meta yet
I like Poyser's persistence, right to scumhunting, instinctual proactivity, saying the right things that gives no sense he's doing it to push a narrative which imo is too bold for scum. But I also don't know his play well either and I think it's only been 2 games? I probably should be less confident surrounding this slot but I think it's highly unlikely he's scum despite my inexperience
Aurelian is town
Orca null
Polar null
hime town to strong null
Lethal is a scum lean, his play this game mirrors his usual play as scum. Or, again, he's impossible to differentiate
Gad also don't know. Tonally town, but highly likely to deep wolf as town. He's an extremely good actor and I'm not going to underestimate that, much like we other players here (utmost respect, not really related)
don't waste a cop on scum gad. cop someone like lethal or polar imo
Not sure how scum are gonna fake that claim
Then it would get easily found out in mass claim
Well I think we should just call it a day and lynch ekko here
Still think TPein is in scum range
Incorrect in hindsight; on point with Ekko on hindsight
I can se equity with Ekko and Gad
Retro did kinda drop that claim and take cover didn't she lol
Aight I'm pulling the plug
vote ekko
At the risk of reigniting a debate I don't give a shit about, I thought you weren't scum reading orca?
Other stuff that probably didn't need to be quoted and also I forgot what I wanted to type because this gummy and gin is hitting me
