Problem is we're at e-2 on Hu Tao by my count this morning (Gamma, Nurse, and Flavor).

I'm entirely unconvinced by Hu Tao's responses to pressure last night, but before I revote I'd like some input on this:

Cuz like, I've played with some folks as scum who will just say whatever during twilight to try to muddy the waters next day but I'm not sure Hu Tao strikes me that way

This one doesn't think Dragon is scum tbh just not playing so well lmao
Sadly this makes me slightly less confident about the scumread
If Lap and HT stopped existing, sure.

Genuinely, what was our last game together where we were both town and I read you correctly?
:lol: also kyouko, why did you just auto assume gamma was town here?
Kyouko hasn't been very interested in Joyboy all game outside of hypothesizing him as a partner to scum!Lap (along with... 6 other players.) and some random off-hand inclusions in scumpools before suddenly changing her tune and asking others why Joyboy is scum. Now that Gamma's replaced in she's sucking up to her hoping to get bailed out meaning either:
A. scum!Kyouko thinks town!Gamma can save her hide with a "correct" townread.
or B. lol they're partnered
I don't think I agree with B. Since it looks like Kyouko was more pleading rather than anything.
Yeah it's probably A but still thought it was an interesting possibility.
Anti-partner talk. Looks like HPE was trying to setup something and I quickly shut it down.

Maybe this one is overlooking the possibility of Dragon since he's a townlean for it and needed a nudge from Kyouko (and similarly to Pav, has said it's only a temporary unvote) but even then it feels like there's BARE MINIMUM 2 scum in Kyouko/Pav/HT/Dragon.
I removed my vote as a gesture. Especially since joyboy was getting replaced anyway, day wasn't ending
You did it after Pavowski had already done it
Also we didn't know Joyboy was getting replaced by then either. HT unvoted in , and JB's replacement announcement came in .
This post was HPE trying to shade me for something again.

Do I know who is scum here? No. I'm not the best at scumhunting, I admit. But I think Dragon and purple are town and HPE has had anti- partner talk with me. I'm willing to trust RN as town since I did think cw was townish before. So that leaves me with the rest as my poe

I'm feeling pretty confident with a towncore of Flavor, Nurse, Gamma. Groundbreaking, I know.

My brain really doesn't want to accept that it could just be Purple/Gera here, but that pairing remains possible, and I was not a fan of Purple's posting last night or in general.

I guess it's time for me to re-read HPE.

Okay I should really be working on course work today but HERE GOES.

Spoiler: Lengthy speculation on HPE's iso under here
Honestly feels like scum annoyed they're getting sus from Dragon early on more than it feels like legit distancing. +town for Dragon

Next several posts are fixated on Dragon. Scum!HPE probably shades their scumbuddy and moves on, the fact they keep on it feels +town for Dragon

Then they spend some time focusing their attention on, and bolstering their sus of, Lap and Thom. Given these green flips, it's interesting to compare this with their push on Dragon. The earlier Dragon push feels more tangential and fleeting, but maybe that's because Thom/Lap feel more like LHF at this point.

They barely mention HT, Purple, Gera or Kyo d1.

D2 they start off really trying to make CW happen and lamenting that CW wasn't vigged. This is heavy +town for Nurse. Flavor has previously flagged as openly coordinating in the thread. Under that theory does scum!Dragon ask his scumbuddy to case one town (me) and one scum (Hu Tao) in the thread? That feels like a lot. and show them giving up pushing CW to turn on me under cover of sheeping Dragon.

...But then there's the CW wagon again and they're really excited. I guess that looks bad for me doesn't it? Ha.

I'ma circle back to this as it's the only such post we get.

hops on the wagon for townie Kyo. Next several posts sparring with Kyo, whatever.

they posit scumteam of Pav/Kyo/HT. Rule of 3 says 2 townies and 1 scummo in any scummo's set of 3; fmpov that leaves HT. Then (same post) says there's *at least* 2 scum in Pav/Kyo/HT/Dragon. If they're TMI'ing that's HT/Dragon.

More jousting with/about Kyo, then ... shades me, I guess? For unvoting Kyo. I didn't understand what they were trying to say then and I still don't.

is so shady towards Dragon it's hard to see it being s/s. Feels, again, like genuine frustration for a townie not acting the way that one expected/wanted.

Then there's some serious Gera shade happening. HPE has now shaded every low content slot except Purple. In fact, in the reads list above they specifically said Purple was towny among the lurkers.

Then back-and-forth with Flavor, obviously pretty frustrated with his play since things are turning in that one's direction.

they posit HT/Pav/Gera scum team. Rule of 3 fmpov says HT.

2265 feels worth a look:

In post 2259, Flavor Leaf wrote: so who's scum other than Geraint, and why?

I don't care at all about you trying to discredit, id rather see where your reads are.
first off you're kinda one to talk about discrediting rn, second off:

Pool is Pav/HT/lurker/Gamma. This one really doubts theres more than 1 scum in gera/cw/Purple but at the same time all of them being terrible awful no-substance slots 90% of the time doesn't help.
My primary concern is in HT because HT, as this one has noted, is fucking difficult as hell for me to read accurately.


On the other hand, Gamma voting cw during catch-up feels like a possible bus meant to keep attention away from her posturing on Kyouko until she was finished and could seal the deal, but this one is only really confident in HT/Gamma being aligned with how individually weird their interactions are, as HT likes pushing Gamma and Gamma likes completely disregarding HT's existence. Gamma has weird non-interaction with Pavowski too. HT/Gamma is definitely distancing, Gamma/Pavowski is... something. Especially with how Pavowski does seem interested in what others think of her slot and the way he talks about letting her finish her ISO.
Interesting is what I put in
turquoise
up there, because here I think is where HPE felt inevitable and this feels like distancing in that light. A pool of Pav/HT/lurker/Gamma is probably TMI'ing again. The lurker is probably not the ones HPE has actually pushed for.

is kinda hilarious if my vibe read of Hu Tao in light of this iso is correct.


tl:dr I think HPE's iso is clearing for CW/Nurse and suggests town!Gera, and potentially town!Dragon. (It would townlock Flavor if we needed that.) I think it's *really* bad for Hu Tao and Purple, Hu Tao because of constant shade without ever actually trying to push there and Purple by virtue of the fact that Purple is *barely ever mentioned*. Note above that in that reads list both Purple and Hu Tao are smack in the middle, uncolored. I don't have a good bead on what it says about Gamma but I'm towny enough on Gamma I'm not that stressed about it.

Ok, no more readbacks for me today.

VOTE: HPE
My reaction when I read this the first time through was "what heat", and rereading, trying to be less tunneled on Laplacian and more aware of what else is going on in the thread, I still think "what heat"? Must be Thomith/DE? Or was it just DE at this point when it voted Laplacian?
When I post I read in real time. So at the time of that post there were discussions about HPE. So it looks like it just voted to push the lap narrative.
In post 472, Hu Tao wrote: Kyouko did you ever reply to my post asking if you see any similarities between this game and the smugglers game for HPE? I have a tendency to scumread HPE a lot, so not sure.
As context I'll post the smuggler game I was in with hpe and kyouko..basically hpe started tunneling me and then I started scumreading hpe for it and we were both town. This was our previous game. Which is why I was asking kyouko about her hpe read.

D2 they start off really trying to make CW happen and lamenting that CW wasn't vigged. This is heavy +town for Nurse. Flavor has previously flagged as openly coordinating in the thread. Under that theory does scum!Dragon ask his scumbuddy to case one town (me) and one scum (Hu Tao) in the thread? That feels like a lot. and show them giving up pushing CW to turn on me under cover of sheeping Dragon.

...But then there's the CW wagon again and they're really excited. I guess that looks bad for me doesn't it? Ha.

WOO a reads ranking:

Purplemango feels the best out of the 3 lurkers but all of them really, really need to start contributing.
I'ma circle back to this as it's the only such post we get.

hops on the wagon for townie Kyo. Next several posts sparring with Kyo, whatever.

they posit scumteam of Pav/Kyo/HT. Rule of 3 says 2 townies and 1 scummo in any scummo's set of 3; fmpov that leaves HT. Then (same post) says there's *at least* 2 scum in Pav/Kyo/HT/Dragon. If they're TMI'ing that's HT/Dragon.

More jousting with/about Kyo, then ... shades me, I guess? For unvoting Kyo. I didn't understand what they were trying to say then and I still don't.

is so shady towards Dragon it's hard to see it being s/s. Feels, again, like genuine frustration for a townie not acting the way that one expected/wanted.

Then there's some serious Gera shade happening. HPE has now shaded every low content slot except Purple. In fact, in the reads list above they specifically said Purple was towny among the lurkers.

Then back-and-forth with Flavor, obviously pretty frustrated with his play since things are turning in that one's direction.

they posit HT/Pav/Gera scum team. Rule of 3 fmpov says HT.

2265 feels worth a look:

I don't care at all about you trying to discredit, id rather see where your reads are.
first off you're kinda one to talk about discrediting rn, second off:

Pool is Pav/HT/lurker/Gamma. This one really doubts theres more than 1 scum in gera/cw/Purple but at the same time all of them being terrible awful no-substance slots 90% of the time doesn't help.
My primary concern is in HT because HT, as this one has noted, is fucking difficult as hell for me to read accurately.


On the other hand, Gamma voting cw during catch-up feels like a possible bus meant to keep attention away from her posturing on Kyouko until she was finished and could seal the deal, but this one is only really confident in HT/Gamma being aligned with how individually weird their interactions are, as HT likes pushing Gamma and Gamma likes completely disregarding HT's existence. Gamma has weird non-interaction with Pavowski too. HT/Gamma is definitely distancing, Gamma/Pavowski is... something. Especially with how Pavowski does seem interested in what others think of her slot and the way he talks about letting her finish her ISO.
Interesting is what I put in
turquoise
up there, because here I think is where HPE felt inevitable and this feels like distancing in that light. A pool of Pav/HT/lurker/Gamma is probably TMI'ing again. The lurker is probably not the ones HPE has actually pushed for.

is kinda hilarious if my vibe read of Hu Tao in light of this iso is correct.


tl:dr I think HPE's iso is clearing for CW/Nurse and suggests town!Gera, and potentially town!Dragon. (It would townlock Flavor if we needed that.) I think it's *really* bad for Hu Tao and Purple, Hu Tao because of constant shade without ever actually trying to push there and Purple by virtue of the fact that Purple is *barely ever mentioned*. Note above that in that reads list both Purple and Hu Tao are smack in the middle, uncolored. I don't have a good bead on what it says about Gamma but I'm towny enough on Gamma I'm not that stressed about it.

Ok, no more readbacks for me today.
Purple was so absent it has been hard for anyone to have any interaction with them, would like to point that out

Not sure why you're defending Purple here Gera, but if you're town and HPE was scum, why is that one pushing for your Lim but saying fuck-all about Purple?

I am not defining Purple, I was justvtrying to point out you couldn't attack someone else for having low interactions with them

By play, you could say you are defending Purple and Hu Tao.

Say Pav is conf town, who’s scum, Geraint?
