....none of y'all like my pretty ISO blocks? Or have any thoughts?
it's helped me understand/warm up to the idea of voting AG - leaving on realiti for the moment for my own soul but it helps me when the time comes to make an actual vote. looking forward to the tommy iso
 
1. Celever - Scum Lean (ive mentioned this before but geniunely think this hasnt provided much)
2. Ehmcee - Null(also need to read into this more akin to clouds)
3. Duskfall98 - Scum Lean (too pockety. not just to psy, either: post#150 pings me pretty bad, granted he does go on to explain why he townread me but iirc never did with caff? correct me if im wrong)
4. realiti - Null(post more)
5. HydrogenHydreigon - Null (post more. i know you do this, but please post more.)
6. pulsar512b - Scum Read (admits to fluffing, hasnt contributed shit)
7. ChadMD - Null (i want to lean town based on my previous game with him where he was instantly active as scum, but i cant do that in good faith. i hate metagaming.)
8. Thunder~BALLZ - Town Lean (this is just acting like standard tbz atp)
9. master oden - make your own judgement dammit.
10. Lady Salamence - Null (iirc i mentioned this earlier)
11. skippergamez - Town Lean (towny posting in general. his reads list is good and provides transparency. could be a potiental tommy partner i feel if we're going for that angle, though...)
12. Aura Guardian - Scum Read (lol. this slot has provided nothing and continues to do so. general passivity and agreement with ongoing gamestate.)
13. ZippyDoo200 - Scum Lean(barely posts, said posts are not good especially his attempt to vote psy/cele like wtf)
14. psypsypsypsypsythe - Town (they're confirmed and even if they werent theyre acting like town psy)
15. Flyhn - Town Lean (good writeup on AG. really hate that they said to let them filler to clouds though...)
16. CaffeineBoost - Null(can someone explain what this slot has done to be townread by tommy?)
17. Texas Cloverleaf - Town Lean(actually trying to solve. is transparent and second guesses themself which i view postively
18. Whydon - Null(post something of substance)
19. Clouds
- Null(semi leaning town but lowkey i need to get back to this slot. its posted more for me to have it at null i just need to rerun my memory. will do l8er)

SO.. that was... a lot. A lot of banter, but despite the short posts we know a LOT about where his head is at as well. Comparing to him in Popcorn 2 is gonna be weird since his reads were "8th werewolf" levels of completely off-base there... and he spent a good portion of mid-lategame just hardtunneling me to oblivion. He was a lot less bantery but it seems he has a lot more of his buddies playing this game so.. that explains that easily. Will likely need to repeat what I did with AG and look at more recent material, but I'd also like to point out I'm not very experienced with scum!Tommy.

..I can't read tommy for shit lol Smalltown feels so similar to the two towngames since and this one. That's kinda scary but gutread is town after all that... would he really be bantering this much as scum? I highly doubt it. I'm just hoping my early gutreads don't end up as totally trash as last time :blobshrug:

yeah tommy got voted d1 in werewolf for acting exaclty like smalltown, the former he was town the latter he was mafia.

was he acting the same? no clue, i didnt sus him in smalltown and then i was scum in werewolf. but yeah i dont blame you on the reading trouble - i have consistently read revival AG as town which means i have a ROUGH track record w/ him

Flyhn for the record I don't think isos have any transferrable value between players so the stuff you turn up isn't necessarily useful to me BUT I think they're very useful for the person doing them to build a picture of the person they're isoing so I'm particularly interested in your interpretations of the isos, both for your analysis of the person your isoing and also for the mindset it reflects of you as the isoer

Fwiw dusk is a good player and most of his posts he's capable of making as scum and as town, the stuff I think is AI beyond I think breaks slightly town but I don't think he's shown anything yet that gives a clear read on him
 
zippy, I want to read you as town, but your reads and posting are both so infrequent and terrible that it’s, frankly, impossible for me to do so. if you’re town or scum I don’t care you can do better

Tbh I just post the ISOs themselves because I like showing my work and MU seemed to like it a lot in the one game I played there

My own thoughts are summarized as AG feeling unlike anything I've seen from him before but closer to scum!AG than town!AG (town is less quippy), and Tommy is one-lining a shitton but... he always does that so idk if that's indicative of anything. My strengths in this game lie more in analyzing scum after they flip so...
