OK I'm here.
So I had planned to write a megapost with quotes and everything, but I didn't want to waste 4 hours writing a post with 12 pages worth of quotes, so I'm going to try to be as concise as possible.
So, first off, I'll list my current reads.
Town Lean:
EMIYA Shirou
Krow
Neutral/Slight town favour:
Bok of the Wild
Jimmu
Minish_Link
Fully neutral:
Mido
Eduarda
Miss Cucco
Leaning scum:
YIGAhim
funnier6
Domozilla777
Karu
EMIYA and Krow haven't been terribly active, but they've been posting actively enough for me to feel fairly confident about both of them. They've been consistently posting believable reads, and they both seem genuine in what they say. At the same time, neither of them have posted a ton, so it's difficult to say for sure, but I feel good about them. EMIYA in particular has been very consistent with his reads in this game and has been presenting good reasons for all of them.
Bok is an interesting case. I tend to have a town lean on him by default, but there's something about him in this game that I can't quite put my finger on. His reads and opinions seem genuine, and he's playing much the same way as he has in the previous games. If anything, the fact that he was so against the majo of Storm but then didn't remove his own vote to prevent it seems a tad contradictory, but other than that, I have a pretty decent town lean on him. And that isn't even necessarily scummy, just something to keep in mind for later.
Jimmu got a bit of pressure earlier on for his Storm vote, but I don't think there's anything suspicious about his vote. There were only two votes on that wagon that really caught my eye, one of them belonging to a dead townie. Overall, Jimmu has been actively contributing and posting good reads with good and sensible explanations. Nothing really out of the ordinary coming from him.
Minish, similarly to Bok, is playing consistent with the style we've seen from her in other games. My only concern is that she isn't as active as she normally is (look at me, talking about activity lmao), having only posted five times total so far. One thing I find interesting is the fact that she was in support of the lynch on Storm, but refrained from voting herself. She explained why, and it makes sense, but a part of me feels like it may have been an attempt to support an obvious townie lynch, whilst staying off of it so she doesn't look suspicious later. So I have a very slight town lean on her, but I'm mostly neutral at the moment due to lack of content, and I will keep an eye on her.
I've been finding Mido rather hard to read in this game. Normally I can read him pretty well, but I'm having difficulty this time. He's been fairly consistent overall, but I've noticed an aggression in him that hasn't really existed previously. Not just for his vote on me, but also the way he posts and formulates his ideas. It's not a scum tell, mind you, but it's certainly different from his usual, more relaxed and laid back style of playing. I realize he explained the change in style, but I just can't help but be a bit wary of him.
Eduarda is neutral simply because she has not posted enough for me to get a solid read of her, and all of her few posts are mostly just about Storm. She was pretty vocal about being against the Storm lynch though, which seems slightly contradictory seeing as she kept saying we should leave him alone, even though all of her posts are about him. I've also noticed that she's been sitting back a lot more this game, but I feel like her usual aggressiveness as mafia is lacking and her posts moreso reflect her town play. Regardless, I'll remain wary, and I'll be keeping an eye on her (or her replacement, if she ends up getting replaced) going forward.
Miss Cucco has been fairly active, which I like. Although she seems to be occasionally missing details, and I don't really like how she said we should leave Storm alone and then later ended up voting for him anyway. Her play has definitely improved since the previous games, but still there's not a whole lot in her posts to get a solid read either way. There's nothing that screams scum, but also nothing that screams town.
YIGAhim was pretty afk during day 1, and has been picking up his activity this day. His posts lack substance for the most part, and I don't like the way he wanted to dismiss all the day one votes. Overall a similar case to Miss Cucco, but I have a slight (very slight) scum lean on YIGAhim. Also for his seemingly random vote on funnier towards the end of Day 1. I like the attempt to divert the conversation away from Storm, but it just seemed random and oddly timed. Almost as if he was attempting to save Storm, since Storm was so obviously a townie by that point that it would make himself look good. Not a strong scum lean, but there's not a whole lot from him to read.
Oh funnier... I feel like we're going to clash in every game since we have such different ideologies and opinions about many aspects of this game. Notably, in this game, the Storm lynch. Now I don't necessarily find his reasoning for being so strongly against his lynch to be scummy per se, although I do find it rather odd how he still doesn't understand why his lynch was beneficial to us in the long run. I really feel like he was trying to make himself look good by saying he was against a townie lynch. Also, I don't like the way he instantly dismissed Domo as being town because of one post that honestly doesn't read that way at all. Overall, his play in this game has been very similar to the previous games in which he was scum, particularly the way he reacts to votes and suspicion on him. I've never liked when people complain about votes and say they don't make sense, instead of constructing a proper defence. Also, the fact that he was against the Storm lynch but said that he thought Storm was mafia, then criticized us for lynching a townie when he though said townie was mafia, seems really weird and inconsistent. I'm not sold on his scumminess, but I haven't much townie play from him this game.
Domo has been contributing more independently this game than in previous games, which is good, but I still feel like he's been rather inconsistent this game. In particular, Krow pointed out the complete 180 he took when he switched suspicion from Jimmu over to funnier, but that's not even an isolated incident as his reads this game have been all over the place. While he does seem more independent this time around, his play is still similar to the previous games in which he was scum. Also, I still find the rather bold accusation of Karu and Storm being scumbuds during day 1 to be rather off-putting, especially since it was pretty obvious by then that Storm was town. Domo, if you're scum for the forth time in a row, then I truly do apologize because it sucks to be you.
Now for Karu. I stated previously that I found Karu's seemingly random change of opinion during day one to be suspect, and I stand by that. It's not the Storm vote itself that I find suspicious, in fact I said earlier in this very post that I don't really find any votes on that wagon to be suspicious, it's the fact that she had spent most of the day defending Storm and saying she was against the lynch, and then at the end of the day took a complete 180 and even placed the hammer vote on him that sealed his fate. Her explanation made sense, but it doesn't seem genuine to me, and it was a weird change of opinion nonetheless. Also another example of someone having said we should take the conversation away from Storm, but not really making an effort to do so herself.
So that's where I stand. I apologize for delaying this post so much, it's been a crazy few days and I've been really busy at work. I should be here more consistently from now on though.
Right now, I'd probably vote for funnier, since he's one of my scum leans and the lynch seems to be going in that direction. I agree with Bok about YIGAhim though, and while my scum read on him isn't all that strong like I said, I also have never played with him so I'm unfamiliar with his play style. I'd be down to lynch him too if it comes to it.
In fact, I said I'd probably vote for funnier right now, but I'm going to try applying a little pressure elsewhere.
Vote: YIGAhim
