Alright, hereās where Iām at readlist-wise. Lists are sorted within tiers, with the top (closest to this sentence) being the towniest and the bottom (closest to the post after this one) being the scummiest within a given tier.
Town
Rem: Literally everything sheās done has been townie, I basically donāt see this slot flipping scum ever. Iām pretty much putting her in a āreevaluate if weāre somehow both alive in LyLoā box.
DeadBananas: Given how new he is (IIRC this is his second game), his level of solviness and thought processes almost always come from town. In my experience newbie scum typically try to lurk/go under the radar or give hedgy reads without being willing to commit to them, and that doesnāt match his play this match at all, which indicates a genuine interest in solviness. I also feel like Iāve mindmelded with this slot a lot this game.
Ari: Based on playing with him in FM1 heās basically in his town meta. Also, I donāt think this level of aggressiveness and confidence (e.g. starting the ITAs) would come from newbie scum basically ever.
Squirrel: This is another slot where I keep mindmelding with it. There was like one post that pinged me early on but other than that the analysis feels natural, and there are several posts that seemed townie such as when they questioned Quinās townread on them.
GKB: His thought process and progression has felt very natural this game so far, at this point the biggest thing giving me pause is him repeatedly saying heās going to take a shot without actually doing it and the random discussion of PRs but other than that heās been pretty townie.
Bepwei: I re-read his Iso and although he hasnāt posted much, basically all of his posts have felt slightly townie, so this is a townlean for now.
Null
Eric, Kaylee, Kaitlyn, Oro, Quack, James. One of Kayleeās posts about not wanting to be linked to people kind of pinged me but other than that I havenāt really seen much AI from these slots.
Scum
Gellnick: He had some early posts in his Iso that looked like they were designed to look productive without actively being productive. I also agree with what Rem said about how him being willing to vote but not shoot is scummy.
Clonedcheese: If Quin is a villager, their explanation for their shot on Quin looks kind of terrible (in that they were trying to distance from the shot in the case of Quin flipping villager, which would make sense from the mindset of a wolf who doesnāt want to look bad if the shot hits, but not from the mindset of a villager who actually believes in their shot). However, I donāt think this slot is ever W/W with Quin, so Quin flipping W would basically clear him, and I remember liking some of their early posting (though I donāt remember why).
Spork: All my reasons for scumreading this slot earlier still apply. Also, the fact that it spent a while as top wagon before the votes dispersed without the slot itself having done anything is commonly indicative of scum.
Quin: The readslist he posted earlier felt very artificial and his explanations donāt really make sense. There were also several points where I felt like he was dodging my or other peopleās questions (such as when he was asked about why Squirrel was so high on his readlist and he interpreted it as a question about him using nicknames/not nicknames, or when I asked about why he thought some of the different things lowposters had done were AI and rather than saying why he thought that he just repeated that they were). This sort of evasiveness is very likely wolf-motivated as wolves are often worried about giving the ārightā answers to questions and are more likely to avoid giving a direct answer.
eh i was 2/3
i knew youd put at least 2 in ur townreads and none in scumreads
cuz thats how u are
anyways
the game, in addition to including the lynch, also included ITAs (like in JoJo FM)
how many scum do you think were dead (to lynch or to ITA) by the end of the game
Marshal doesnāt get to answer this
Well considering that there was only 1 left, whatever the amount of scum at the start - 1
anyways my point here isnāt āliterally any form of distancing or bussing is badā
itās that ātry to look townā isnāt a particularly winning strategy and ātry to get townies mislynchedā is
