GG scum, thanks mod for hosting
Also, what is NM doing? Worst play I’ve ever seen.
I can't remember the last N_M post that wasn't bland, unimaginative and lame. Some shitposters are at least somewhat funny. You are the epitomy of the type of poster that nobody would miss if you were to suddenly disappear. You never add anything of value.
I'm guessing you haven't read the game and probably never will? Why even sign up to play?

Town played a particularly good game, and I think there were several difference-making plays in no particular order:

1) donki and chumbo on day1 realizing they needed to opaquely go for a compromise elim that wasn't on donki was a huge reason that scum got elimed D1 and neither mason got NKed
2) catboi realizing this and protecting the two of them on D2 and D3 was also a huge play
3) marcistar just being utterly on point with reads this game was really impressive.

Nice job everyone!

Lollll, not your fault, I was pretty off the mark in a lot of ways, I could have dealt with things more constructively and not just been all over the place with my aggression. Things to learn for sure.

i think this was extremely winnable for scum with some different kills, esp on N1. You'd be surprised what town is willing to be wrong about with the right pushes

It was at this point where I felt like Town had me and Lone figured out completely. I was very surprised to see Ninetails being a wagon on D2. I guess I was just too paranoid.

You...probably should have hammered me when you had the chance? IDK why you didn't.

I’m sorry about not remembering to play.
But I’m glad I left my vote on Lone before getting booted for inactivity.
Personally I just don’t think the pace is fast enough here for me.
I truly wish I could play on this site but it never works out.
Anyways wanted to say GG everybody!!

iN3krO
- This is a very slight read, but I actually like him saying he's not scumreading anyone in . Maybe I'm a sucker who's being baited by a sad face emoticon. I kind of think I don't want to vote him?

NorwegianboyEE
- I think him starting with wanting to policy N_M () but backing down in and giving him credit for saying things is probably indicative of a town mindset. Although pushing for a vote on n_m is >rand scum from recent experience, coming out the gates with a policy vote is likely to be unpopular and nlikely to accomplish anything, and the fact that he was willing to re-evaluate suggests he's not pushing it just to push a mislim. I also like him talking about looking at Meuh's previous towngames in . His spirited defense of me in 194 is a bit surprising but I can buy it coming from someone with some prior experience with me. I'm all right with calling him a townread at this point.

Pearofclubs
- I will agree toward the general townreads on them, their general approach does feel problem-solvey. Reaction to my early RVS sass was okay, approach looks fine, I can't necessarily point to anything in particular but I like their overall analysis and it doesn't look like newbie scum thoughts.

Of course, I am historically terrible at at reading people who push me, don't take that read to the bank if i die.

Toriiiiiiiiiiii
- largely stand by what I said earlier about not liking their tone in respons to questioning, slight scum read

Not_Mafia
- truth be told, I've not been thrilled by what he's done so far - I know he's typically a player that doesn't do much as either alignment, but the way he outed this reads felt a bit showy, like he wanted to have the appearance of analyzing, but they haven't really moved much and the read on Sama was weak. I think there's a decent chance he could be scum here.

Samawoodo
- His start was slow and I wasn't a fan of how he seemed to be doing a lot of talking without much substance in the way of reads. I like the questioning of Toriii in combined with him stating he was waiting for a followup in though, shows he wasn't asking the question as busywork. The list in doesn't do a ton for me, but the marcistar read is nice, there's a bit of depth to it in how he goes about the analysis - not just looking at simple things, talking about marcistar reacting to a null erad. I think that's enough to call him a town lean right now.

Meuh
- I wasn't a fan of that post asking everyone qusetions and in general I feel like there's a vibe of hanging back to her posts, stuff like I don't see as advancing the game but more like talking just to talk. The bit about Sama in 162 is interesting although I'm not sure what she means by "positioning". Vote on Tori in 210 is kind of weak, don't townread Torii but this is just using purely gamestate reasoning and nothing in particular about Tori's posts which I don't like - why her over another inactive player?

marcistar
- My first game with her, had her as a fairly strong townread easily but that was because she came under pressure early, here it's a very different game and so my read isn't as strong. I do think is a fairly solve-y post and the way she's tried to prod people to get the game moving is +town but nothing I'd hang my hat on.


Town

Pear
Norwee
Samawoodo

marcistar
in3kro

toriii
N_M

Scum

None of my scumreads are super strong suspicions, I'd vote any of them but would be least likely to vote Meuh simply because...she's actually posting, and given how slow the game has been I'd rather not vote out someone active on Day 1.
