It's not firm I just think their responses to pressure have been awful. I've seen the defense of them being "town can respond that way too" and it's like . . . So?

Grendel's posting has been alright and I like the way they've engaged with reads. My only real issue with the slot is their predecessor, which isn't fair to them. But I can't shake that Meg was caught scum, so you can see my dilemma. I've decided I'll give them a day to make an impression removed from Meg.

If Ircher is elimmed tomorrow as a result of scum interference it puts more tools in the town bucket than just elimming him here and he actually flips green.

It's not important. I'm not actively pushing roden right now. I just want a clearer picture of your Roden townread tomorrow since you're seeing something major that I don't.

But not right now.

Meh, I think for Roden in particular he has a history of getting tilted at pressure as town. Ragequit the two anon dance games simply at the suggestion he was scum because he wasn't solving. He needs to, uh, not do that but ideally I'd rather just give him space and see what he does on his own rather than have him arguing endlessly with people about a read he gave in the very early game. But maybe I'm just a softy.

Of course, he can emulate that tilt as scum so it's by no means clearing but the aggrieved self-meta felt somewhat believable. The read on my slot/LLD being unaligned did feel like hot nonsense and does him no favors but like I said, don't think you're going to get anything more useful out of it.

Openly not reading the game/doesn't care about solving, pushing easy votes, playing reactively in response to how people are reading her, doesn't seem town at all

My only real impression of Roden is them on the defensive. Not to say town can't play more reserved roles, but that being my only impression of them it isn't a good one for me.

If he gets defensive and fumbles arguments as town (in a meta sense) does it make them surely town because they don't have the capacity to do the same as scum? That's the only way I'll accept roden is town on a meta level.

Okay, reads list it is.

Ircher - I still hate this slot. If it's confirmable, great, who cares what I think.
The Three Bears (Titus, Flea the Magician, Noraa) - Town. Blatant town. Moonlogic Titus, chaos Flea and Noraa actually looking like scum for once says this hydra is town.
Cephrir - I hate your play but I think you're town.
Save The Dragons - TOWN.
catboi - TOWN.

Mastina - Nothing to work with, formerly a townread.
Malakittens - Nothing to work with.
TheWayItEnds - Garbage ISO, nothing to work with.

Dunnstral - Willing to give Dunn coast time. Not reminding me of Popcorn or Mtn Dew.
Tet - Null. Unreadable. Could be anything at all.
Galron - I hate it, but I have to null it.
Grendel - Forced down by Roden's play. I still think this is a definite alignment.
Roden - Townreading this until recently. This player is trying to slip out of the spotlight and I don't like it.
NorwegianboyEE - I'd call this scum, except the numbers are weird. I'll save this one for later.
tictac - As with Norw, but more-so.

Lady Lambdadelta - LLD, where are you? Can you show up for me? Like I reread your ISO and I'm unimpressed. You have access control to our brain, so I think I was giving you more of a pass than you deserved.

Andante - Agreed with Shrike. Scum.
Val89 - SCUM.
Toogeloo - SCUMMMMMMMMM.
Bell - Bell is scum. Full stop. And I am biased towards townreading this dude, so think about that.

Damn. Looking that over feels terrible. Full disclosure: my reads are shit because I'm too busy thinking about the girl I'm dating to care much about the game. Don't read too hard into my reads, trust Shrike's judgement, this is its game.

Town can definitely play defensively, and reservedly.
If you want meta, go find it. What you've given me here is nothing strongly AI.

Where the reasons I have is that Roden has been actively engaged, looks to have been attempting to solve players and has been acting pretty transparently. The spat with StD was TvT as far as I can deduce.

Something feels off with you bears, but I'm struggling to articulate what exactly it is, and I'm wondering if I simply struggling to get a handle on how to deal with a hyrda in general rather than evidence of scumminess on your part.

The fact that, for instance, I'm struggling to figure out which of the heads 'Kiepin' relates to, despite the earlier explanation, isn't helping matters.

Little bit of research and looking back over his ISO and I kind of think Ircher is town now. (caveat being he doesn't roll scum all that often so don't have as much frame of reference as I'd like)

Correct. I've admitted this is a vibe read, and I'm not usually one to listen to my gut if there isn't anything I can point to to back it up. I realise that I am about to label myself as one of those ego players someone was talking about, but the fact that a good portion of what I saw from you in the mid portion of the game was on my two strongest reads - STD and Roden, and we have clearly taken opposite positions on those two slots - is probably what is feeding into that.

That's the exact reason I am asking Galron to outline why he called you town there. My mind could be changed if there is some sort of logical reasoning behind it.

Hey do you mind telling me whether the flavor of Ircher's claim makes sense?
