Ok here's what LaLight and I discussed. I'll sort reads by scummy to towny more or less; some reasoning given, but no quotes (#notreallythatsorry)
Scum-side
EFHW: Our biggest scumread; we are both in total agreement. I think EFHW is one of the biggest "posting but not active" players; what I do see seems very "leaf on the wind." A bit of that is overall activity, but also a bit more about the final RL days of Day1.
From my perspective, the most votes were happening at the end of Day1 on MiX, LaLight, shraeye, raerae, and mail-mi. Mail-mi's never really felt like "for scumminess" but more for "he's a bit lurker-ish". So out of the 4 most serious wagons, 3 are definitely town, and I'm still confident raerae is town. What I was looking for was this...imagine EVERYBODY there is town. Who's doing the least work to move anything forward. Why put yourself down as the main proponent of a mislynch (for example, I was main proponent of MiX's lynch, and it got me some Day2 votes even though Mason was likely)?? Why not just keep all options open, not rock any boats, and be happy that a mislynch is basically guaranteed. Plus perhaps some claims.
Silver: silver's silence has be a bit concerned; from our recollections there is usually more arguments, more activity. But silver did say that he was trying to avoid being as emotional this game. So we agreed taht something seemed different, but weren't very sure if it was a conscious evolution of playstyle, or indicative of alignment. One specific thing: silver's analysis of wagon in #444 didn't sound genuine to me at all. LaLight thought there might be scum in silver/faust based on their interactions. We're really sure it's not scum/scum. If LaLight is right, then it is silver.
Also, I don't think that silver was looking good in end-of-Day1 antics.
DatSwan: We had some disagreement here; I marked DatSwan as more null, LaLight was more convinced of scum. I started Day1 thinking town, then went null, DatSwan late in the day seemed more scum. LaLight was really suspicious of silent DatSwan, which he said was really uncharacteristic. LaLight says TownSwan has mad skills, and noted that we have observed no mad skills yet.
mail-mi: again, a bit of a disagreement. Some of the reason I found mail-mi scummy on Day1 was related to MiX; now that is obviously null and void. I think LaLight was finding mail-mi scummy independent of this; and would have preferred to lynch mail-mi over MiX. But I am less enthused by the "mail-mi is scum" argument. I think that he hasn't engaged yet in this game.
Now that's a bit different than past reads where I silence made me lean scum. I think EFHW/silver have engaged in the game, but really are failing at being proactive and helpful. mail-mi hasn't reached the engage-stage yet.
I don't want to lynch mail-mi today; but want to keep him in my radar.
Just plain Null
Joseph: yeah. both of us were like "uhhhh, no opinion". I can't wrap myself around joseph's playstyle, and LaLight (who is much better at that) didn't give me any comparisons/examples
Town-side
UncleEurope: Some disagreement here. I thought Uncle felt a bit scummy; one specific thing that stuck with me was when Uncle got frustrated at the Dylan/mail-mi replacement; if Uncle ever turns up scum, I'd fixate on mail-mi QUICK. LaLight disagreed, and convinced me otherwise. This being my retyping of our reads, I can put him on the scummiest side of town (yay bias), but I ended up agreeing with LaLight mostly.
raerae: Disagreement here. LaLight found her scummy, but agreed with my assessment (towny), given that I know her and her style better. Saracasm + challenging hedgers + frustration at sheeping/reasonless votes & opinions. People have cited that as scummy, but that is just how she is; how she approaches mafia-like games. She's giving reads, and making cases, and I'm listening. Raerae is a good scumhunter.
DebatePro: I was null; LaLight said DebatePro was town. Not many details here, but that's how it is.
faust: LaLight was leaning town and I'm whatever-is-past-leaning town. Faust's blindspot is ari; it seems like faust consistently finds Ari scummy for reasons that I just don't buy. I think he'll be even better for town if he can untunnel on that. LaLight was a little worried because of how scary faust can be as scum, I think that's that we were different on.
Ari'sHipShape: Here's one we both instantly agreed on. Ari is town. his intense focus on each argument strikes me as genuine. Although he's being stubborn, this reads as town to me. LaLight agreed and found Ari towny. Another note is the back/forth between ari and raerae make me think that at least one party is being honest. That is, if either end up scum, I'd treat the second one as an IC. However, I don't think either are scum.
STAY TUNED TO SEE HOW DAY2 HAS CHANGED THESE READS...BUT IN THE MEANTIME DISCUSS PLEASE.
