i thought it might be interesting to have a look at what kind of analysis everyone was committing to the thread at an obviously pivotal point in the early game that is sure to be revisited and scrutinized at length in future days. this will probably be more useful for everyone else after some flips but here's what i found, in order of who was willing to the say the most to the least following the dissolution of my e-1 wagon.
the fearless tier
una gave by far the most in terms of analysis and stream-of-consciousness reactions to the wagon switch, clearly not overly careful about how their takes would be received. gave reads on both myself and hu tao, interacted with both of us and with other players, threw out some theories, and was open to other d1 options than just the leading wagons.
the stakeholder tier
gamma interacted with me briefly when i was on the chopping block, questioned others about their thoughts on the situation, provided an associative read between myself and hu tao, and interacted extensively with hu.
drew stayed mostly on the outskirts of discussion but i think that could just be his style of play. he was still offering theories regarding the situation, and explaining what his thought process was while reading along.
flavor leaf gave updated reads on myself and hu tao, including an associative read. he stuck around the thread but was mostly distracted with some self-defense.
nono only made one post following the events in question but it read to me like an in-the-moment honest reaction to the discussion.
marci's only contribution to the discussion was a rather shallow reaction but a reaction nonetheless.
the "i'm here!" tier
dann updated his read on me but offered no analysis of the situation and immediately moved onto other things. the timing of
1439 is a little off to me, it provides no original analysis, only a reaction to other players' theories.
roden didn't offer much analysis, hopped onto hu tao over something tangentially related to the wagon switch, and then hopped back to me. surface-level posting without getting his hands dirty, comes across as opportunistic
jjh mostly complained about my wagon falling apart and voiced their non-support of the hu tao wagon, but as an aside with no comment on any of the events that transpired. no analysis of the wagon dissolution, and no thoughts on hu tao directly, only shading fl
the forgot my reading glasses tier
firebringer did not react to any of the events but continued to somewhat interact with the thread.
i am not convinced that geraintm is even reading the game or if they are just searching "gera" and responding to those posts.
