Voting without explanation I have seen from scum, but I've also seen it from town. It depends on how well you know the person doing it, to whether he has a history of doing it.

I decided to just roll with the stronger townreads I have and try to re-evaluate the weaker ones. So after these pages FA, yuria, hark, and fancy are my strong townreads and eager, kop, and farside are the weaker ones.

Those questions relate to something we can look at post flip. We can possibly draw up associations, connections, information we can build on etc. We will get information post flip, but I'd like most information gained from a flip that we can get.
If she's town, how much of a connection can you get from someone who knows no one elses alignment?
If she's scum, how can you trust a wifomy list from someone who is getting pl regardless?

And is this a normal thing for you to advocate?

I have NJAC in my null pile because I haven't seen a great deal to scum read him, but I wouldn't vote for him right now, until he actually gets in here and defends himself to this wagon.

But something unsettles me because of how quick things flipped over onto NJAC, with a few people actually reading him in a different light to voting for him. That makes me nervous.

UNVOTE: Texcat

I'm going to have to over read things again.

^ question to kop
I unvoted because I wanted to review the whole thing. I didn't like how it changed, and how quickly the wagon developed. I changed back to Texcat because I think I needed that flip to show me what I needed to know. If Texcat flipped scum, then I could look at that development on the NJAC wagon because I would like to think tex partner would be somewhere in that quick voting, because it was taking away from tex and latching onto a heavily town read.

This is actually a really good point.

I've been feeling a bit disheartened since night since we're doing so badly but screw that I still wanna win.

Toying with NJAC and Farside scum team, need to look into it further, tonight hasn't been good.

Oh wait apparently thinking I'm scum for voting you while still scum reading someone and you do the same thing.
1) What's wrong with not having other scum reads? What are your other scum reads? Also I said my wagon could be a counter wagon of texcat's, so I had a slight scum read on that slot. I'm currently saying that Harko could be scum, so that's another scum read.

2) I already explained my vote on texcat. I don't consider the reasons for my vote vague, I've been very concise about them.

3) Please elaborate in this one, because I'm not following what you're saying. What same thing did I do?
1) means your not giving reads and scum struggle to make cases or reads more,.where did the hark read even come from.

2) let's review that read on text

1) Sgz's posts are the kind of posts I've seen from newb scum. His jump on alban's wagon in his first post is especially bad, like a newb scum opportunistically jumping on a forming wagon. This is mainly gut, so I admit not being a strong point of my case.

2) Meta reasons involving farside's post style matching that of a game in which I played with her and she was scum.

3) Her opportunistic jump on my wagon, while throwing shade on Gamma at the same time.

4) Add to the above Mini's , , and .

Farside is scum my friends.
Explain as in idgi. What is an "opportunistic jump" and why is it scummy.
And the meta thing is questionable at best when i checked. Are you going to explain it further?

I kind of like NJAC's attitude if not his behaviour.
I didn't like how he was inactive, then only became active when he had pressure on him, then went inactive after the pressure died a bit.
I also think Farside's argument has some merit.

That said when I ISO him I feel like their are some genuine posts there stuff like this feels like townie arrogance. This is partly why I speculated about a NJAC, Farside double bus kind of vibe.
Basically NJAC is under pressure, so he decides to (rather than eagerly jumping on a townie wagon of either Text or Perse) make a case on farside and refuses to drop it, perhaps to make farside look good when he flips?
In fact there is very little emotion in their interactions. NJAC even pointed towards Farsides posts recently which I find quite strange coming from people who are supposedly at each others throats.

Anyway I still have confidence in my primary town reads; the Hark slot (also a town replace as I doubt scum Hark would replace out of such an easy position), FA, and Infinity/Gamma (part of the reason I didn't interact with you is because I already think your slot is town).

I'd say the second worst slot at the moment is eager, last game I played with him he spammed up the thread as town (251 posts), this game he's done 45 in about the same amount of pages. Not at all how I'd expect him to play, and he needs to give reads ASAP.

There's probably one scum in Yuria and Kop.
