--
I'm trying to start to consolidate my individual reads, so here's a list of 'em. Might pester Shadoweh into doing one too.
TOWN:
26) SnowStorm
-- Feel his mason claim is legit.
2) Lyanna Stark (Tammy)
-- I think I tend to read Tammy as town regardless of alignment, but I'm pretty confident this time round that she is.
3) Mockingjaye
-- Posts seem generally solid. It's probably because she hasn't posted much, but I wasn't really aware of her existence until I ISO'd her recently (thought she had been replaced/was replacing out, or something.)
4) Dolorous Edd (Ser Arthur Dayne/bodean44)
-- Clear thought processes. I don't know why people hate hydra dissonance so much, it makes it pretty easy to get a read.
5) Staeg
-- You can trust me on this.
6) Tyene Sand (Tierce)
-- Kinda meh on her through the early game, townieness really started to kick in around post
#554, imo.
Petyr Baelish
7) kortul
-- Regfan's convinced me here.
12) hasdgfas (now Albert B. Rampage)
-- Generally good posting, liked that he picked up on a post I felt (only after he pointed it out)
was flawed in extremely subtle ways. When someone does that it always gives me a townread. I dunno. No read on ABR yet.
14) Regfan
-- Was very wary of him at the start of the game, suspicion has since faded and I feel pretty confident in my read here.
19) Mastermind of Sin
-- His posts feel barren, but ~~~events~~~ make me think he's town.
20) Plessiezarus (Zar/Plessiez)
-- see Dolorous Edd, minus the hydra dissonance and plus townpoints for good posts.
27) Jal
-- Feels town, especially when discussing previous games. Wasn't really expecting much on ISO but this read is surprisingly strong.
MEH:
1) Minimum (Mina/CES)
-- CES side of the hydra reads town, Mina side of the hydra reads scum.
9) MagnaofIllusion
-- This is weird. I like to think I can read MoI pretty well, but in my eyes he has such little presence this game that it's hard for me to discern his alignment at all.
10) Plum's Yo Mamma
-- It's not a strong conviction, but I don't like the way they pushed greenknight and especially their last few posts. Everything else seems pretty OK, it's just this one thing.
13) Shadow1psc
-- Ambivalent. Feel like I should feel strongly either way, but I don't.
pappums rat
15) Amrun (now Seraphim)
-- Lack of content.
sword of omens
16) greenknight
-- Can't read him that well; picking up scummy and townie stuff (last sentence in
#740 gives me a pretty powerful town vibe, but I can't bring myself to trust it). Was content with Shadoweh's choose on him until recently.
24) Starbuck
-- Didn't really get all the early game kerfuffle, finding it hard to get a read off what she's posted so far.
25) BBmolla
-- Don't understand why he was labeled obvtown for his reaction test, doesn't seem to fit what I remember of his town play (which, admittedly, is pretty old). Feel like he should have more presence than he does. I'm pretty sure Shadoweh shares my views here.
SCUM:
21) Feysal
-- Basically all the posts where he's discussing Multiballgate are scummy. Most of his other posts seem to consist of 30% weak meta-based assertions, 40% self-explanation, 20% answering questions and 10% actual scumhunting. And then you have
this shocker of a post in which Feysal says 'I only ever get accused of having inside information as town ... I have never displayed having inside information as scum' (paraphrased) -- well, firstly it depends on the people you're playing with, and secondly, it's called a 'slip' because you make it unconsciously. The way you seemed to assume it was multiball in
#47 seems to me very, very much like an unconscious act.
Hyperion
8) Shinori
-- Same recount vs. analysis problem that kortul had, but his predecessor was terrible as well. I do not like the fact that he decided to start hydraing with a buddy part way through the game one bit.
redFF
11) DCLXVI
-- Shadoweh doesn't like him and I can see where she's coming from. I find redFF's replacing out suspect.
17) Bvoigt
-- His catch-up doesn't feel particularly genuine and I like and appreciate the recent points and subsequent wagon springing up on him.
18) Benmage
-- Do not like. Doesn't match my past experiences with him, feels like he's playing to the crowd, think he could be bussing redFF/DCLXVI. Need to talk about this with Shadoweh because she disagreed here iirc.
23) Salamence20 (now Iecerint?)
-- Read has degraded from iffy a la post
#343 to downright scum. Reads feel parroted. Fluffy posts. Too defensive. His content on MoS is pure shit. I'm usually not good at distinguishing newbscum from newbtown but I think I'm on the mark here. Shadoweh disagrees, obviously. >_<
28) StefanB
-- It's hard to pinpoint exactly what's wrong with his posting, but something's definitely awry. My
#343 contains a bit about him when I address Regfan and I couldn't really put it into words that well back then, either. But I think he's scum.
No particular order.

FUUUUUUUUUUUU. AND I WAS DOING SO WELL.
