You changed your mind later in the game sure but I went war mode with SS on D1 and you hard defended him and I gave up on the game
I correctly solved the game by correctly identifying scum!GL then later figuring out that SS was his obvious buddy and yes, your early reads definitely helped with that. I always give credit where credit is due.

You think townblocking can’t be a valuable tool? Why not? I’m far better at correctly identifying town than scum, especially in early game.

I think the fallacy is that you know you identify town correctly more often than scum, and you suppose that means your town reads rate is better than your scum reads rate. The error is that there are more town than scum in a game, so your higher correct town reads rate is not statistically significant.

So is a random number generator.
random number generator is kinda bad no
better just to mark the entire plist as town
RNG will still be right on town more than scum, but yeah marking entire list as town is better, that's what I meant, thanks.

yeah maybe that thinking is a little off but there are certain types of reads that are better y'know. Like I have really weak reads day 1 but I am a lategame carry, in LyLo my reads are 50% accurate even though scum are only about 22% of the playerlist!
"Let us say that you are right and there are two worlds. How much, then, is this 'other world' worth to you? What do you have there that you do not have here? Money? Power? Something worth causing the prince so much pain for?'"
"Well, I..."
"What? Nothing? You would make the prince suffer over... nothing?"

Oh okay, yeah that makes sense. However it still doesn’t change the fact that I’m more often than not right and I’m actually not terrible at catching scum either like in Newsroom and The Room Odds have shown, I would probably catch a lot more if I trusted my initial reads more often/allowed myself to be influenced less by others and doubt myself. For example, in SC 1, I scumlocked tw, pretty much right out of the gate for his really suspicious push on me but then he pocketed me D2 and I ignored my initial strong sr on him.

Just FTR the times I'm criticizing ND for aren't the same as saying she's always bad or is bad in general, just that conventional wisdom on 'townreads' is wrong
2019 stats: Town WR 76.7%, overall WR 81.667%, 1 scum defeat involving a major mod error in lylo vs 8 scum wins.

I don’t make my reads by using conventional wisdom, that’s why they tend to be in general, better than average.
