is it just me or does this feel fairly wishy washy? like i get it, noones really been talking enough to be able to get a concrete scum read from it but literally all of these reads can be boiled down to either 'theyre contributing, tr' or 'they havent said enough, null'. idk, it doesnt feel like its very townish to be so lenient like this, if amanda is scum i could definitely see some partners in there
I can see where you're coming from about the lack of detail - hence why I clearly labelled these as "initial thoughts" (about players known to me, where I have meta etc to draw from in addition to in-game information) and "initial impressions" (about players I don't know).
I'd like to clarify that I actually had three distinct categories - 1 those with content who I Town Lean, 2 those with content who I do *not* Town Lean, and 3 those with little/no content. This is how I approach D1. Any player whose content, in context, does not put them as a Town Lean is a null for me. As time goes by, additional content and context means that players who I initially Town Leaned may no longer seem like Town to me, and they will drop to null, and then possibly to Mafia Lean from there. I do not consider this to be "lenient", just practical. I do not assume someone I'm Town Leaning *is* Town, which would be both lenient and foolish.
Not to put too fine a point on it, but the reason you were listed as "null" is because I did not read you as Town at that time.
