It's never too early to have accurate and correct reads, even if you're not 100% sure where they're coming from. I once caught Scum within 10 posts - and good Scum, too.
Nmego12345, I'm curious to hear why you're singling out a kuror0 and goodmorning as a mafia team.
THAT ESCALATED QUICKLY
Goodmorning
- I was fine with Goodmorning witholding her readings at first to promote discussion. ...but I’m not happy that goodmorning stated that she had multiple reads on people so early in the game, and I found her reasoning weaker than it maybe should have been with such an assertion. But otherwise I read her as town.
RIGHT IN THE CREDIBILITY!
Look, you're not going to be able to write a 10-point case on someone who's got 3 posts. They're (/have been) strong reads, and I'd be willing to bet on 3.5 of the 5.5 being right (I already have an inkling which 2 might be wrong), but I can't really articulate "I've seen Newbies, and this falls more in line with my experience of Town than Scum" without being asked "how so?" and I can't answer that except with this metaphor:
It's like being blindfolded and given 4 different sorbets to taste, except they're all various berry flavours, and you have to guess which is which. Maybe you get strawberry on the first bite; maybe it takes you a much longer time to separate the raspberry from the blackberry. Eventually you'll get them all, because you know what fruit tastes like.
In post 92, LmkGuy wrote:As for the rest of the game. Lets keep in mind that even though GM is the IC and is the one who was/is most actively scum hunting, it doesn't make him automatically town. With this in mind, I am town-leaning GM, but just want to make sure that we all are aware that at this stage, anyone could be scum. Also, can we please not all just look for what reads GM posts? I get that he is the IC but that doesn't mean his reads are going to be right. I think instead of focusing on his reads, we should be forming our own opinions.
I mean, I said that last bit already.
But yes.
(Sorry about the rest, hope everything else is OK)

@Galagya: nmego wasn't one of my original four, if that helps. The plus .5 was DE, entirely for frankness. As much as I rely on tone for reads, it's not necessarily good enough in all cases.
I'm very likely to switch votes to original scumread #2 on or before Saturday, both because Oacenth is looking less scummy and because my original 2nd is looking more scummy.
RE: 96/97: Which push are you referring to? If you mean the "I have reads" thing; that's genuine. I never pretend to have more reads (or "reads") than I actually do; it's not good play, for a lot of reasons.

Semicolons!
p-edit: I'm not outing my 2nd original sr until I vote them. I'll do a write-up of the 3.5 TR in the morning, though, and maybe talk a little bit about the emergence of Lmk while I'm at it.
