So here's where I'm at...
flicky: Claims cop. No reason not to believe it at the moment.
heury: Confirmed by flicky.
jimbob: Townie content. Nothing really pinging me at all at this point. As I mentioned earlier, I think that
this post points strongly to jimbob being town. There's a few other things, like not reading the setup until quite late in D1, that, IMHO, tend to point more toward a townie player rather than a scummy one.
Sabrar: Most of his content is quite townie. There's a series of posts on DethStalker, ending with
this one that ping me just a little bit. It's interesting that the other experienced players, mpolo, dimochka, and jimbob all fell on the side of DS being misguided town, whereas Sabrar went with scum. That's really the only thing that has stood out to me as possibly scummy in Sabrar's content. I think it's most likely the case that jimbob/Sabrar is town on town. But of the two, I'd say Sabrar is somewhat more likely to be scum.
dimochka: Hard to analyze without D1 content, but there's a few red flags here. In
this post, his read of heury includes this comment that was never followed up on:
I also noticed something that felt like scum setting up targets for d2, but I can't find it now. Going back to look in a moment.
In a later post, there's
this:
Also sidenote: I really don't like the votes on dethstalker. A lot of it seems opportunistic. I'll call out specific examples in next post. I'm currently finishing my quick analysis of the other people and answering Sabrar's questions. shouldn't take more than an hour or so.
AFAIK, dimochka didn't answer Sabrar's questions here, and never followed up on this opportunistic comment. As noted already, the fact that he's reading Sabrar and myself as townie and heury is town makes this comment difficult to understand.
His D2
read on somitomi seems very generous considering the amount of content somitomi actually has:
somitomi: don't really like D1 content. First 2 pages have almost nothing, and then they're just repetitions of ideas already in play (opinion on heury, and defaulting to not answering a question because of LG's response yet failing to mention that reasoning till prodded). With that being said, seems like genuinely trying to analyze the case on dethstalker. I feel like this is more of a new town player meta than a scum meta. D2 is better so far (post towards top of page 5 is better).
No scumreads besides heury at present.
somitomi: A few things are a little odd here...
somitomi wrote:Mpolo is suspicious too although I can't put my finger on the reason.
I didn't really have a clear opinion on the third question, but having re-read the thread for the umpteenth time, I'm inclined to say Mpolo & Heury at this point. But that's mostly just a hunch.
I'm not sure why he's singling out mpolo
here as sufficiently scummy to be scum for reasons he can't explain.
The lack of voting at the end of D1 looks pretty bad, IMHO. somitomi was reading heury as
a bit suspicious and wasn't bothered by heury marking jimbob as both scum and town because
he read it as a joke. In the same post, he indicated DethStalker as strongest scumread, followed by mpolo based on the quote above, and continued to pressure DS. So it doesn't really make sense for him to be indecisive here if he's town. IRL reasons for absences happen for sure, but I have noted (and have been guilty of this myself), that very end-of-day IRL absences do tend to be
much more common for scum than for town.
I'm not sure what to make of
this response to me from somitomi, since the question wasn't directed at him in the first place, and despite saying he doesn't want to put words into someone's mouth, he puts a fair amount of effort into doing that. I don't know why he chose to respond to this in particular as opposed to anything else in the thread.
I think it's more likely he's newbie scum than newbie town.
So town-to-scum right now is looking like
LaserGuy
flicky
heury
jimbob
Sabrar
dimochka
somitomi
Going to go ahead and put this down.
