A fair point. However, from my perspective, I felt Pero had mischaracterised our exchange somewhat, and so to force something out of him, I had to reach a bit to get him talking. I managed to extract some behaviour I could read him from, which in turn has led to my current town read.
I also think a result of this was I got Ultra to overextend his hand a touch, if you see my discussion with him I felt he attempted to shift his position after he first latched on to something he felt he could safely attack, a characteristic I expect to see from scum.
Any thoughts on what I've just said? Does my explanation make sense from a town perspective, if you accept that I may be disregarding how I come across in order to prompt certain behaviour from players?
