oka's shift to ircher is a big ??? to me but i feel like he likes to wagon and tends to gut SR players for surface-level scummy things so it's not super ??? just the biggest question mark is why he specifically mentioned ircher tends to be incorrectly SR'd in fast paced environments and then going on to SR Ircher in this fast paced environment
now that i talk about it more i guess it could be kind of pockety -> deciding ircher would be an easy vote but that's just one progressions
oka's tunnel on me is p bad/doesnt make a lot of sense and i feel like that kinda progression is more likely to come from town oka bc if he was scum he wouldn't have to make a huge case like that to justify slipping onto my wagonhemloreplacement queue-

Response to the 5 miller claims is tonally more opportunistic than e.g. sausage's. not a big deal but he's also messaging a fair bit slower slower (if there's a language barrier I apologise extremely profusely but I think English is oka's first language and won't speak for saudade) which means his posting at this point is likely to be more considered.In post 52, OkaPoka wrote:ok looks like we are just lynching millers for the rest of this game lolllll
I love little snide comments like this early-game but it's a bit shady and super unrelatable, like as you all now know I had the polar opposite impression from Saudade's posting at the time :/In post 55, OkaPoka wrote:

this is p tonally off-putting
This is fine and pretty funny (I'd thought the same thing for a flash second) but like he.....actually thinks this is a thing. Like he unironically comes back to this later. This is firstly a ridiculous read. Secondly, if you are tinfoiling a powerwolf dynamic duo this hard you do not make some of the posts Oka goes on to make.In post 64, OkaPoka wrote:if its cheeky + saudade ill laugh

he always gets scumread in marathon games and this is marathon game with longer deadlines

how do u have reads already
pedit: nsg i think we lynch in miller pool !
despite saud/ct powerwolf duo concerns and soft defending ircher
Which makes me think saud/ct post was a meme and his soft defence of ircher was illegitimate/posting for the sake of looking like he had a stance
he talks about this so fucking much I'm gonna omit all the mentions bc like half of my notes is just times he's talked about lynching millers. he's mechgaming constantly despite the fact he's spectacularly failing to sort any of the millers and I don't see how anyone thinks he's like... town parsing this lynching strategy.....In post 149, OkaPoka wrote:nah
lynching within miller pool first is always optimal unless you can guarantee like a >70% chance scumreading someone first try (i made up that number but the point stands, it should be very unlikely to the point where its not worth it)

everyone else - has a 75% of being town

another post supporting that he realizes saud/ct scumteam is a meme
question to ircher would be solid if he was townreading ircher but he like explicitly isn'tIn post 191, OkaPoka wrote:ircher, u think cheeky is town for that meme of a play?
it would be solid if he was concerned about cheekyteeky but he's transparently spending no time trying to sort or case her
I appreciate this is all fluffy but I've cut out the entirely fluffy posts in his iso. He's making noises and taking stances but he's not advancing the gamestate and he has no like tangible reads.
then this comes!! and he's concerned about cheekyteeky powerwolf and yet all of the above is a thingIn post 208, OkaPoka wrote:if this were a normal game id lynch cheeky

hedging here is kinda hilarious. I think he's kinda hit a point where he realizes playing off the cheeky/sausage/tw thing is gonna do nothing except possibly? secure my mislynch if town is stupid? if he's thought about it and it's gonna take a lot more work than anticipated so he's gone from having us as his strongest apparent reads to not feeling like he can have a read on usIn post 322, OkaPoka wrote:ill admit maybe tring the worst is too far

In post 324, OkaPoka wrote:i mean lynching charismatic people for charisma is something ive done in the past before

again his takes so far have been extremely poignant and I find it bizarre that he doesn't feel he can have strong reads this game.... the gamestate is so advanced at this pointIn post 372, OkaPoka wrote:someone teach me how to get strong reads this early
this whole "I don't wanna give reads because I'll tunnel" thing on top of "I'm tunnelling all the miller claims" is like a brilliant charicature of scumpostingIn post 385, OkaPoka wrote:i still feel bad for possibly tunneling nancy out of this site
this post stood out to me the most as well but largely for completely different reasons. he doesn't really seem all that interested in sorting Skyg he's like.. responding to the question for the sake of responding to the question.. let's say he's a bit pinged by it, Skyg is concerning him and he's kinda stopped pushing the {CT,Saud} thing or trying to paint me in any kind of light...In post 391, OkaPoka wrote:

Also, can Saudade, Skygazer, and northsidegal towncase themselves? I'd appreciate it. (the worst could as well, but I'm pretty confident in town!duckling right now.)-

I think looking for partner interactions today is a pretty weak read. I'd prefer if you attacked the way I'm playing the game, not who I am talking to.In post 991, Skygazer wrote:

on the subject of lynching millers vs vts given cheeky's claim, given the chance that she's doing the MU thing where you fakeclaim cop as cover i think it still makes sense to lynch in the millers.
(just so you know, if you're trying something where you wait to see if i question you for giving me an easy townread, mathdino tried that one and it didn't work. i guess i'm interested in your reasoning but i usually don't think townreads on me are unwarranted because i usually feel like i've towntold.)In post 489, the worst wrote:not explaining my nsg read is intentional and tactful thoPlains and Islands-

(If you are scum, you can continue doing nothing and allow yourself to be lynched. Your choice.)
Pedit: A reads list would be a good starting point. Doesn't have to be in-depth--one-liners suffice for each read.-

miller list:
top scum:
saudade - tunneling is too easy to do as scum and needs no nuance in actual play, all surface
nsg - taking a wk on skygazer + little content during the explosive phases = needs flips to sort here. but nsg has set herself up very well if its a skygazer town flip
skygazer - on one hand i can sympathize with defeatism and lack of motivation to play this game because i feel somewhat the same being scumread by like everyone. on the other hand, shitposting -> self voting -> quickly unvoting seems a little too close to theater. im actually seeing rc from newsroom vibes from this play. rc was town but still.
the worst - his case on me felt a little strange and trying to push existing momentum + insistency that saudade is town based on suspect reasoning imo, but then again he's doing a lot of protown things by trying to move discussion forward so i actually like him
non miller list:
top scum:
ircher - partially PoE, also case on me is just strange. looked at one game to come to the conclusion that i favor mechanics as a scum player when he was in that game and should know that mechanics was kinda necessary when scumbuddy had claimed doc in newbie and i had to help defend my buddy that game, mechanics was just the best tool to defend him. should be pretty evident at least early on that miller lynching > non miller lynching, it isnt advanced theory.
pine - i guess insta townreading him from mind meld may have been too eager to jump the gun because of his hiding this game while game has basically zoomed in on me n skygazer so he doesnt need to do anything. but he's not as well positioned as a scum!nsg to dominate.
azorious - probably the only person in this game with nuanced reads and refusal to hardpush things and accelerate the game more than it needs to be accelerated. so yeah i tr this because even tho he is being tr, it doesnt set him up to take control of the game as scum post d1/
me n cheeky left out for obvious reasons
alright i can rest now since my reads dont match like anyone else's lol-

Who said you were done?
I find your Saudade read pretty interesting... I did some research on Saudade and found that he's pretty loud and obnoxious regardless of alignment (no offense intended). He seems more than capable of tunneling people both as town and as scum. While I can't say I townread him rn (my townreads do, so I'll take them at their word for now), I also haven't seen anything that seems particularly scum-motivated. Can you go into more depth on what you see in Saudade's ISO that makes him your strongest scumread?
Also, w/ regards of my read on you--the meta part was more of a sanity check rather than the primary part of my read on you. I am well aware that a sample size of 1 is practically useless to make any useful observations other than getting a feel for playstyle. I apologize if I made you think otherwise; I guess it did take up a lot of space in my reads list compared to the rest of my read. That said, your focus on mechanics throughout the day still stands as a major part as why I'm scumreading you. Some other aspects include the fact that up until now, you have done nothing useful this game (which combined with your focus on "don't lynch me cuz of mechanics" looks really bad) as well as the way you reacted when others and I questioned you earlier in the game.-
