    Ok thanks.

    In general I admit that the exercise wasn't as fruitful as I'd hoped, but again, I'm not going to hold back posting my thoughts just because.

    The main thing I take issue with in this post is the bolded - my weaker reads were the ones I made earlier, correct? And they're being inflated by the stronger ones I made later on, the ones I felt more confident about (Zack and Miner, to name two)? I feel like this would make a lot more sense if it was the other way around: First I'd establish my stronger reads and then use them to inflate subsequent reads about them which would ordinarily be weaker.

    Does that make sense to you? Do you see the issue I have with this?

    -----

    In general I think drunkposting is NAI, but playing it up too much/potentially faking it is absolutely wolfy.

    Ah, good timing then, but i still think its pretty much just dependant on The person. For some people it might be, they might write all kinds of stupid stuff drunk, while others arent as prone to do stuff like that

    I made tiers and then RNGed the order of the tiers. It's like a puzzle!

    In my personal experience that's not how my thought process has gone the times I drunk town'd. Doesn't really matter to me if I don't think so well at the time or not, I'll post and then reconsider later if I think some of my thoughts weren't solid after all or if something confused me while I was drunk.

    Would kind of like if you could give a summary of why people are where and what the tiers mean.

    Tiers are townier than the tier under them and scummier than the tier above them.

    Got any specific questions, or?

    I mean like which ones are scum leans versus nulls? And also the same as before, general reasons for the placementz.

    Sorry, I Believe In Unlabeled Tiers (But Only Sometimes).

    Why people are where they are: this is still a really broad question and I do not have any particular intention of writing out a full list right now? Who do you want to know about?

    I read Newcomb's delicious wallpost, I just don't really have anything to say about it at the moment.

    I see this: Vira and miner make identical reactions. Yet you bother mentioning them as if they were different and separate from later reads, when they feed into later reads. Similar to Zack in a way but that was less noteable.

    But this doesn't make sense to me. You're obviously aware that structuring it like that weakened the stronger points you made later (in the same post) so why do it all?

    How is Tsaiah anything but null?

    I have absolutely no experience playing with Vira that I know of. So if this is normal for her, I have to take you guys at your word for it. Doesn't mean I won't side-eye her.

    Also Stanari, I don't get your reads.

    I have magic Tsaiah-reading powers.

    Which specifically? Or just. All of them.

    Oh I should take my own advice.

    All of them.

    Looking at prophylaxis specifically:
    I don't like how quick he is to thank people. I know that sounds weird. I just don't like the sucking up aspect, if that makes any sense.

    This feels really over-explained to me but it might be in a slight town way?

    See, this is the kind of thing that's really easy to do as a wolf. It looks like you're promoting an end to chaos but he's not really contributing anything at all.

    I don't like how easily he townreads people. It's really off-putting. His reads all seem to come from almost nowhere (113 being the exception).

    scott - lots of noob towniness, in ways scum wouldn't bother to fake. Good responses to pressure.
    zack - like the progression. The feeling people out. The incredulity.
    sr - some combination of mindmeld, willingness to insert himself, and toan
    weiy - should probably read his posts more carefully but the little burst felt really natural/genuine whatever.
    fable - is just hanging out, but it feels good. Lack of agenda, etc.
    sooh - elite grumpiness towntell
    jari - [this line intentionally left blank]
    miner - stuff. Already talked about. Good read on me. Bad read on newcomb.
    cuth - feels off.
    gh - ?
    stanari - literally the exact opposite of the SR read.
    proph - in antispew from his first post

    No, I don't have anyone I want to put in red.

    Well I had you in the sooh/jari tier and when I went to type why I couldn't think of a single reason.
