Who are your town reads RN Natiko?
Might as well just do a full reads list, I try and do one once a day phase anyways.
Town
Ty4on Still a pretty solid town read in my book. You've been engaged and haven't been afraid to go against the grain at times. My only real hesitation comes from some minor whiplash. You ended D1 strongly defending Royal in a manner that seemed odd given Royal's posts up to that point. Then you started today off saying you weren't as sure in your reads after seeing some flips, yet when Royal was brought back up recently you went right back to posting very firmly that you think he shouldn't be a lynch candidate and is town. Perhaps you just have additional information that I do not, so I won't let this one tidbit sway my overall opinion.
Sorian Town. I think he has continued to engage players, tries to analyze and solve, and he has seemed fairly consistent thus far. I can see the argument being made that his claims are convenient for explaining away a lack of death over the course of time, but generally I think the concept of the FA matched with his PR make sense.
Lean Town
nin1000 Started out really strong on D1, generally gave me good feelings which is surprising for nin. The slip today had me concerned, but it seems like he made up for it and not only participated but got his reads out and was not shaken when confronted by Sorian. I'd say lean town currently.
Karkador I'm going to go with a town lean, but that's purely due to the possibility that his role is a neutral one. I generally have felt his actions and thoughts seem town thus far. I don't really buy into Blarg's arguments about Kark being scum that was meant to work in tandem with AB to achieve some additional scum goal. It just doesn't seem likely to me based on what we have seen thus far.
Bronx-Man I'm finding it hard to get a read on Bronx. He seems to be different than how I remember him playing in Zelda, but in Zelda he was a SK so different doesn't have to mean bad. His aggression seems increased which I think is actually a good thing as perhaps he's playing with less to lose this time (i.e. vanilla). His fixation on the Terra issue seems superficial though. If he was taking it more seriously I would have expected more analysis about what each player actually said on the topic as opposed to just going "everyone that voted wanted him to suicide". Very light town lean though as I don't think I've ever seen Bronx make that kind of analysis so not sure why I expect him to suddenly change.
Null
Kingkitty I'm going to leave kingkitty as a null. His participation has at times left something to be desired, but when he does post it has generally been meaty. I just don't have a strong read either way currently. I need to do a reread of him at some point.
FluxWaveZ/OceanicAir I'm grouping these two together based on the exhaustive conversation today regarding FAs. Both of these players are ones that have had two different styles of play so far (Flux is more active but has not posted very many thorough posts, OA has been far less active but seems to be putting in some more effort when he does post). I can't help but feel due to the similarity in their FAs that they're likely to flip the same thing. Blarg has made some pretty good arguments against Flux, but has also at random ignored other information and when confronted with an issue in his theory he has tended to just go "Well I bet ____'s FA has an additional condition!" to try and wave away any issues. I'm going to go null. Would like to see more from OA as it could help me come to a conclusion one way or the other on this duo. If Blarg is scum I could definitely see these two being his remaining teammates.
Royal_Flush I still don't have a great feeling about Royal. Despite his posts being lengthier it feels like they generally don't take many stances and just discuss a current topic without leaving much of an impression. The thing that has made me hesitant is his steadfastness in continuing to say Terra's suicide was the better play. This doesn't seem like a stance scum would take. Null.
Lean Scum
StarSketch The good feelings I had for Star D1 have definitely faded. She increasingly doesn't seem engaged in the conversation which to me reads as someone that doesn't have any reason to try and engage. Perhaps this is due to whatever FA she has that she has implied may lead to her death D3? Seems like an easy out for her though and if we don't buy into Blarg's "Kark = scum" theory then it would make sense that a scum member may want to try their hand at getting an FA removed without drawing too much attention to themselves and continuing to lay low. Scum lean.
StanleyPalmtree I find it increasingly hard to recall stances Stanley has taken this game. He posts a moderate amount, better than some at least. Despite that it feels like I know less about his opinions than I do OA's. A player that is able to blend in that much and remain in the middle of the pack really worries me. Lean scum.
Scum
Blargonaut At this point I think I've wrapped back around and believe Blarg to be scum. The scum team likely didn't expect to be down a member after the results of D1, so to have AbsolutBro die may have caused them to pivot some. He's seemed to be reaching and morphing his arguments to fit his narrative over the course of the day and I already discussed what I think about his claims. Scum.
