Finished up the re-read and I got a couple thoughts.
3. [m] nin1000 - Read the above post for my thoughts on Nin. He's playing to the whim of his thoughts and is acting like he has nothing to lose, something he doesn't do when he's Non-Town or a PR.
I think he's Town. I will listen to a case if it's presented as I kinda feel I've just given a Meta pass to Nin but it's going to take a lot to convince me.
4. [m] Muffin1611 - So...I'm going back and forth on Muffin. Again. I would like more input on him from others because I'm starting to go either way. I mentioned as much earlier that he's more
'hanging in the back' and not actively Scum Hunting on Day 2 and that caused him to jump up in activity and start firing back at people and making cases. He kinda went back into a bit of a lull again and on Day 3 he threw out a bunch of posts that do logically think through 'well if CM/Stan/Trigger is telling the truth then...' but also gives little on how he personally feels about those 3 individuals. He goes hard on Stan once he says 'I'm a Darkwraith' but things like
his feelings on CM are left up in the air. I also want to note that on Day 1 he changed his vote from Nin to Fireblend over '
monkey's good points about Kits and Kits being on Nin'. To note, he NEVER went back to Kits ever after that despite the read being strong enough to sway him off of Nin. Also found the
Monkey post Muffin is talking about ( i think? ) and it's a good page before he changes his vote. If Monkey's post was strong enough to sway you, why didn't you jump off earlier?
I'm also asking for more input/discussion here because I'm having an issue where I generally don't Town Read anything Muffin does EXCEPT for those he attacks for calling him out. His defense posts don't read Scummy to me at all and feel very genuine but I don't know if that alone is enough to give him a pass. A good defense and a bad offense doesn't look to me like someone who is putting themselves on the line to solve a game.
Scum/Neutral Lean.
5. [m] isaacnukem - I enjoy Isaac's posts when he does post so I'm feeling pretty good there. A little weirded out how confident he is in the whole 'Stan is Scum, CM is Hypno, Monkey is Town, etc.' train of thought since Stan is just highly likely to be Scum and with a GF in play Monkey shouldn't be given a straight clear. However, I don't know if that's alignment-indicative but what I have seen of him is pretty good so far.
Slight Town Lean, would mostly like to see more from him.
7. [f] kitsunelaine - So I mentioned earlier how I didn't have a read on Kits but after having read the game over I do see what everyone is talking about. Barely here, some joke posts, a weird instance where she went straight back to the Nin vote on Day 3 and just stayed out of the whole Stan-CM-Trigger thing entirely. Not a terribly large amount of Scum Hunting but I did like her whole
Reads List back on Day 3 even if it was timed oddly. Her vote for Nin on Day 2 also strikes me as odd because the voting justification is just
'he's playing weird and not pro-town' only to not elaborate on it anymore until Day 3 despite posting twice afterwards ( once to fix the vote and the other to strike back at Nin without explaining anything else ).
Scum/neutral Lean.
9. [m] oreomunsta - Oh boy, Oreo. I feel weird about him, too. Lots of numbers talk, lots of defending the numbers talk, lots of explaining the numbers talk. Two of his 3 Day End votes have been OMGUS and then he helped killed Stan yesterday so there really isn't a terribly large amount to work off when it comes to him despite posting a good amount. One thing I noted here was Oreo has to be prodded for his actual thoughts on people. He got
prodded by Monkey on Day 2 which lead to an 'i'll do it later' response ( he posted shortly after with a list
of Kits, Nin, and Muffin with zero explanation ) and then I had to poke him on
Day 3 to get his thoughts on CM-Trigger-CornBro and all I got was a 'i'll do it later'. He's also a
Scum/Neutral Lean. Not much outside Scum Hunting and when he is prodded for actual thoughts it either gets pushed off or the justification is lacking ( in the case of Day 2 ), nonexistent ( Day 3 ), or is straight copied from someone else ( Muffin vote on Day 2 ).
10. [m] flatearthpandas - I think part of what shocked me a bit was how much I Town Read FEP after reading it all over. I know I never really felt Scummy about him but everything I've seen so far leaves me feeling pretty good about him. Scum Hunting, following up his logic, active, questioning people; haven't seen anythi,ng that would raise any suspicion. My
Top Town.
14. [f] hey_monkey - So here's the thing about Monkey, I Town Read her for similar reasons to FEP but she also has this habit of sticking up for Stan. Day 3 was the most prominent of these actions but it even happened on
Day 2 just
a little
bit ( to note
Muffin did too ) and I guess the question comes down to: would Scum boldly defend a Teammate so openly? Sure, we don't get flips so it can be argued that there really isn't any 100% connections or verification so that opens up the possibility for a defense. However I....don't know. I've never played with a Scum!Monkey before so I don't know how she acts but everything else I've seen here is how Town!Monkey plays so I'm more willing to believe the latter as opposed to the former. If she is Scum I applaud her for doing an amazing job at copying her Town game because I don't see any difference outside of the Stan defense. I have her as a
Slight Town Lean for now, would like to keep an eye on her.
15. [f] sawneeks - like 130% scummy
17. [m] rac - Another thing that shocked me was I actually ended my re-read with a Town Lean on Rac. He doesn't make the biggest posts or do a whole lot of pushing people ( lots of open ended questions tho to no one in particular ) but he's just...it's this feeling I get when reading his posts that just strikes me as someone trying to work things out on their own and figure out the puzzle. Kinda like Nin, I guess, but I don't know Rac well enough to make a super strong call like that. Despite that, nothing I've seen raises any alarm bells to me but I would like to see more.
Slight Town Lean.
New List:
Would Lynch: Muffin, Kits, Oreo
Would not Lynch: Nin, Rac, Isaac, Monkey, and FEP.
