@ Monty

courtesy response to your wall with my opinions on relevant bits that weren't questions to others.

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Note: Winston and Zack feel better individually as my responses below indicate, but this just elevates the possibility of m/m.

Can't agree with that yet. It would take a lot of things to spin both reads negative. I literally would need to see 2 of Logic, Manasi, and Csargo flip town first, I think. Game would also be way out of hand by then. We'll cross that bridge when it ever happens.

People re: Csargo, but you can't really judge by last game's performance. He's currently low-energy baseline for Csargo and that has tended to be town.

And that gif was deployed in the Pokemon game, right? He was v engaged scum.

Agreed but this one-game meta thing is super thin. By his last town game, he should be lock scum, but I know that it wouldn't be for that reason because I have more than a one game meta with Csargo. He can still be scum but that's not why. Why is because he randed it and his post indicate so, but because it's different from his last town game by miles. It always would have been.

Higher engagement with Pokemon game as scum could have everything to do with partners, state of the game, and the theme. Could also have been a good time for him. There are games when I am locked and loaded if I rand mafia, other games I'm hoping for a town rand because I have a high bar to hit when I'm scum and I want to be able to give that level of performance and sometimes I don't have the energy and I'd have to summon it, which is difficult and frustrating when it's not there.

For those reasons, you shouldn't say Csargo this game as scum did this, he's doing something different here, he might be town. If he is, it's not for those reasons. Much better is examining him in this game. This game will always be much more alignment indicative than a one game meta snap read.

Well, I think the DP analysis is insightful, but I don't know about "no person actually behaves like this"... Laughs aside, there was dicetosser in Representative Democracy. OTOH dicetosser was non-stop confrontational, so that consistency could be something to compare against reinoe later. As of now, reinoe fits well in the town-play mold of visitors like Severing Viper and a couple of other people.

Dicetosser can be fun to play against, he's usually very blunt and confrontational though. He's a very brick wall kind of player, with rough and sharp bricks sticking out at odd angles.

reinoe reminds me of Lulz / iamabussinessman, tbqh. That's his style almost exactly. Voxx is different.

Not a lot of this is needed to be read by anyone, you could elect to skip it. I mainly talk about Winston/Zack not wolves and not w/w, and a bit on Csargo's one previous scum game not being very indicative because of how non-indicative one-game-meta is. Total body of work meta much more solid, this one game always more solid than meta anyway. The most telling meta is whole-game meta. One half of day one is the reason why I'm not more solid he needs to die. I also guess who reinoe is.
