Pisskop: Nulltown. Pretty horrible opening. His stances on Dwlee are outright bad - "Dwlee has too much pressure on him, but let's flip him, but I think he's town" - but I've actually came full circle on this because I think that pisskop-scum wouldn't actually make such blatantly scummy posts. He never really explains why the Dwlee-scum case is bad, he never really explains why he thinks I'm scum when the read originated from the middle of d1. In #1517 he calls Nero bad for scumreading him but less than 2 pages later he calls Nero scum in #1555, which is odd. I think that pisskop-town could be lazy, but would remain internally consistent with his reads.
In #1986 he says he didn't want Dwlee lynched, which I don't at all understand given that he himself hammered Dwlee. Even if he felt that he needed a Dwlee townflip to gain traction on something, he still wanted him dead. I didn't buy his Doctor claim at all, in large part because #2405 seems like an outright lie to me. I still feel like #2405 is a lie but I now sorta buy the claim. I also don't see what pisskop gets out of making that lie as scum. I know that pisskop is smart enough to make that doublebluff play and get away with it but I don't think he'd be gutsy enough to do it with a critical claim like that. I think that I was confbiasing against pisskop a lot in posts like #2540 because all his reasons for lynching wguerts have nothing to do with wguerts being scum, but I was probably just underestimating how much he wanted to survive. Pisskop legitimately doesn't mention a single person that he is townreading on d1 so it's not outside the realms of possibility that he was telling the truth about that. I still have no idea why he chose YT as a placeholder vote given that he actually calls YT scum in his only readslist of the day and he should explain that but it's a fairly glaring inconsistency in his story. There are a lot of posts like #2691 that I was sure was coming from survivalistic scum, but more and more I can see them as coming from desperate town either. Nothing pisskop does really makes that much sense as scum. His posts are unpolished this game which is also something I associate with pisskop-town more than pisskop-scum - I remember him just gliding under the radar in NY 180 before dying n1, but he's a lot louder and brash here. #2926 is town posting - he flat-out admits that he just wants Pere's vote, which is pretty town as well. Pisskop starts off bad, gets a little better, then gets a lot better in this game. In #3225 he too admits that wguerts is probably town, which is another good play as I'd expect pisskop-cum to continue his wguerts-scum rhetoric to ensure the lynch. I'm not sure why I was voting pisskop at this stage because he was actually posting quite well by now. He goes a while without really posting anything indicative but returns to attack me in #4049. This looks like a town attack because he jumps on me in a "gotcha!" moment, realises he was wrong, and backs off. I think pisskop is a lot more likelier to jump on me like that as town and not think the accusation through.
I started off this read intending to call pisskop null with a townlean. Pisskop is actually a lot townier than that. He's not Cakez-level of town because I still want him to talk about why he chose a scumread as a placeholder vote, and his early game is suspect, but he's at the tier below that.
