Ok, so this is a post where I'm going to try and address both some of the past issues with my posts, and also put my views out here.
First things first. Explaining some of my views on this game.
1) The whole issue with Rapier vs BBM vote: I was looking at both of them, and finding Rapier more scummy than BBM. I voted Rapier because I viewed him as the better lynch target.
2) My suspicions of Marth for "buddying" with BBM: Looking back at this, I'm kinda ashamed of this one. That was a really weak reason to be suspicious of someone and I think that I was being paranoid and grabbing onto the smallest reasons to suspect someone because of how few reads I had. Since then, I have become more neutral on my read on Marth.
Moving on from there, I'm going to try and put my views on people here in a nice color coded list. I know that list posts aren't the best, but right now my brain sucks and it's either a list post or possibly me asking to be subbed, so you guys are getting a list post. (Note that I'm not including myself in this list because obviously I know I'm town and putting myself on that list won't change anything)
Town
Shinori!: Our obvious town leader. He's been doing a good job so far and apparently has many more irons in the fire.
Eclipse: A couple reasons for this read. 1) I really don't think that the mafia would kidnap their own. It's a really bold move, and I dunno. I kinda just doubt BBM would have done that. 2) Overall, she's been really helpful, trying hard to get her views out and work together with the team. 3) She and I had a nice conversation last night where she explained some more of her thoughts and I just really got the sense that I could trust her.
SB: I think that SB is probably just noobtown at this point. He hasn't been around a ton, but the little I've talked with him has made me feel that he was just confused at first.
Aere: One shot BP is a pretty good town claim as far as I see it, has been making pretty good town helpful posts. Haven't talked much outside of thread, but the one or two things we have talked about have helped solidify this view.
Marth: I originally found Marth suspect because of buddying with BBM. But, as stated above, I've come to realize that I didn't really have solid reasoning, and was just looking for reactions to try and get info. After my most recent conversation with Marth, I find myself viewing him as more town because he does seem to be doing his best to help the town.
Iris: I find myself leaning slightly further towards town than neutral on Iris mostly because of the few conversations we've had outside of thread. I'd like to see more from her, but feel as if she's town for now.
Kay: neutral. The few short conversations I've had here haven't led me to either side. Kay's posted some solid posts, but some of them make me lead more towards town, and some of them make me lean more towards scum. So, I'd like to see more, and hopefully will get a better sense there.
Strawman: Once again, very little contact outside of the thread, but what little I have had has left me feeling neutral. The posts he's had in thread have been good, but the lack of contact from which to draw a read have left me feeling neutral.
Hika: Once again. No outside contact, and not a ton in thread. Neutral read.
Blitz: Leaning slightly more on the scum side here. There's a difference between having a few posts, but not a lot, and having one post. I would really like to see more from him in here, as well as outside contact.
Helios: Ugh, what started out as a fairly solid town read has slipped to a scum read for one major reason, and a few smaller reasons. The smaller reasons are mostly that his posts lately have mostly been one liners with very little content to them and that I haven't had any solid conversation with him since N0 really. The major reason is I found out he told my role to at least one other person. And, while the person I know he told is apparently trusted by our town leader, I still have a hard time getting over the fact that he told someone info that he shouldn't have.
Rapier: What was originally a fairly strong scum read has now turned into less of one. I still think that your discussion has not always been helpful for town, especially D1, but I also admit that I was probably tunneling. I still find you to be suspicious, but not as much as others.
Lucina: Right now, I find Lucina to be the most suspect. His posts have been almost all empty and he has yet to really post any opinions. I've yet to have any outside contact with him. The lack of content and the overall seemingly contentedness to let everyone else do the scum hunting and pointing fingers makes me strongly suspect scum here.
Scum
Third Party Party: Bizz! From Bizz's posts, I've gotten a fairly strong read that she's interested in helping the town as much as she can, but above all else, she has her own agenda that will not hurt the town, but it might not help it either. She's been pretty solidly set in my brain as third party for a bit now. She also seems to enjoy threatening the mafia that she will find them and hunt them down if they try to kill her. So, uh, go Bizz!
If I forgot anyone, or if you guys have any questions for me, I'm perfectly willing to answer them. I didn't get as much in this post as I would have liked, but my brain is rebelling against mafia right now after what happened in Higurashi Mafia, plus just general other outside real life stuff affecting me right now. So basically, if there's stuff you want to know, ask. I hope I didn't forget anything.
