A new report has been dispatched. Commentary is from Victoria and task force members.

Someone ask me about it when we're less than 5 hours away please so I remember to share, it won't be immediate though.

I'm asking you about this now. A little bit off the mark for time, but do tell.

(Victoria) Wolf read this CEO for their relatively shallow contributions across all phases. Yes, there's the obvious replacement thing, but I have yet to see the CEO do anything worth merit aside from work all thread dodging acquisitioner.

Above post shows the shallowness of Amazon's ability to read IBM. They are focused on their method of communication, rather than the message they're communicating. China Mobile task squad is now looking into Amazon.

Above post shows Amazon having a very controversial set of reads. While Alibaba remains at slightly above null for some players, Amazon confidently places them high into their list for consideration. Verizon is another controversial read, as they are almost universally scumread. Microsoft has very little information too, so positively reading them is also questionable. The scumread on Visa looks bad considering Visa was shortly flipped as VT after.

(Victoria) The scumread on Facebook could be distancing. I still don't like Facebook, I don't care what you fuckers think.

Task force requests you acknowledge this post for a later post.

(Victoria) It looks like our original evaluation of Visa was correct, then. I still like GE for his hot takes.

Starbucks case seems fine to me, Starbucks is almost always town, China Mobile hasn't done shit, but the little they've done is scummy.

(Victoria) I'm not sure what else to say here other than I felt like Facebook's posts were the worst in the thread at the time. Anything else I can say here would be WIFOM territory, which I'm not touching.

Above post is a reference to task force's aforementioned acknowledgement. This is the same "will pop in if I see anything urgent" Verizon. Stocks are down for Verizon. It is advised you sell quickly.

Anyway, I actually need to go sleep now so Imma make one final vote on Amazon which is admittedly mostly gut so guess you're all gonna talk about reasons and all that, which I know is a fair point.

But I really don't have the time to ISO everyone and see who did this compared to what, even though it looks like it does 'cause I always have a tab open in the background.

(Victoria) God dammit. I agree with their vote on Amazon so it feels extra gross joining it. I definitely don't like what Amazon has had to offer this phase, but this makes it extra difficult.

Fuck it Amazon let's throw down.

Here is a current read list from our task force:
+: Starbucks, GE
[Wells Fargo]
0: Alibaba, McDonalds, Shell, Marlboro, Google
[Microsoft, IBM]
-: Facebook, Toyota, Amazon, Verizon

- Victoria

Picture votes are hard lol, ty for fixes. Also please don't vote in spoilers, it's too easy to miss.

Wells Fargo · 06-7-2017, 06:14 PM

why is GE so high in your list you literally never mention them

why am I beneath Starbucks and GE

why is shell and google at null

why is microsoft beneath null

why is toyota where they are

also, Verizon's vote on Amazon didn't count because they also unvoted in the same post

Wells Fargo · 06-7-2017, 06:14 PM

oh yeah, that's another thing

McDonalds · 06-7-2017, 06:19 PM

Are you really okay with Verizon voting for Amazon due to a "gut feeling" close to the end of D1?

I'm starting to consider China Mobile tonight too, but I'm not sold enough to change my vote.

Well I have to leave and I'm missing EOD.
Looks like nobody's liking votes on Microsoft so Verizon. You've barely done anything and your vote on Wells Fargo with no reason and then ditching is bullshit.

IBM · 06-7-2017, 06:29 PM

According to my notes off the top of my head, as I'm not at home i'm good with amazon or toyota eating a nut they're allergic to today, based off say around the first 20 pages of the game and not really sticking to me with content today memory wise.

Will reevaluate stances during the night when i have more time to finish ny work.

That said neither of my reads make better cases than what wells is pushing, who is my top town, for now.

IBM · 06-7-2017, 06:30 PM

That said, not opposed to FB tho.

You're incorrect on me never mentioning GE. I reacted to GE's post about Visa earlier this phase, the one about Visa saying voters on the Toyota wagon look good and simultaneously voting. This is why I'm seeing GE more positively.

Did you expect yourself to be higher? Are you asking why I'm rating you above null? If so, your posts have yet to feel scummy and you seem to have lots of checks on people who you can hold accountable to find the acquisitioner later. Do you want me to suck your dick or something?

I believe I have ascertained the identity of Shell and I fucking hate reading this player, so I'm honestly not going to touch this one. I know people were talking about them being acquisitioned and Amazon is begging for them to be blocked (could be a wolf member asking for the town blocker to do the job for the wolf team), but I really don't want to touch this one. Scumread me for this reasoning, I fucking dare you.

Asking why Google is null while simultaneously asking why Microsoft is below null feels like a meta read from your point of view. I can't see things from your perspective. Most of Microsoft's posts are regurgitations of other players' thoughts, while making a huge focus on Marlboro as their "original content".
Honest truth: I haven't taken much time to sit and read Google because every other player has stood out more.

Toyota has done nothing this phase. Given the fact that two people on their wagon yesterday are confirmed VT, maybe I should reconsider. Perhaps I'm being a bit paranoid.

I look forward to additional questions while I work with my task force.
