The Great Vote Count Analysis (Pre-Discussion)

[Titus]

Where scum usually vote on one unopposed town wagon
Where scum vote when the only major wagon is scum
Where scum vote with two or more major wagons as t v t
Where scum vote with two or more wagons only on scum
Where scum vote with town and scum major wagons

Note: The caveat this is harder to apply until d3 in most games due to the large amount of assumptions that must be made or odd nightkills.

To echo and supplement Blair's point, VCA isn't a perfect algorithm but an imperfect heuristic. I am a big proponent of VCA over reading when I sub into games if the assumptions are met. That doesn't mean VCA is always flawless. If the wrong assumptions get entered, a wrong result pops up frequently.
