Not the sole reason I'm voting this slot, but a primary one It's more or less positioning for a later read based on something that would only move the needle conditionally The logic does not really connect on both ends either You could say the read is uh premature (for lack of better word) - Clouds I've not read up to the point of that post yet, and I do agree with it being odd to start predeclaring reads (also because it allows you to manipulate the game if the people mentioned are not so confident, which I don't think would affect the Grace slot tbf) However, I did just read this post: Well this time I have a hydra partner to help make reads. But also I had 2/3 scum at the end of that game but no one believed me. I was actually really insulted by how much effort I put in to solving only for people to completely ignore it and even have scum (you and Zara) openly insult it in their chat. Also I could ask the same question to you. Is it normal for you to tunnel someone the entire game? cuz people were townreading u for it. Sorry the game is still fresh and Iām still upset about it so you kind of touched a nerve there -pq While the emotions themselves are NAI (obv they're oog), I liked them openly communicating them + being vulnerable about it in a game where everyone's supposed to be judging you + the questions do seem actually pretty useful. Did you get anything out of this post? - Snaq No, you're right, I do like this now that I've revisited it again. Particularly that there's not much hesitation to deal a snappy question right back to Schia so quickly, and I would say this only becomes less relevant in the event that they're both scum on the same faction. Even then, it feels more drawn out and spoken from the heart than the average theater interaction Alas, the brakes shall be applied for now because what you linked is a good enough of a post to warrant it, and because the awkwardness of the post I quoted is not the most egregious thing ever unvote

ok was gonna agree with clouds on the pq thing cause there were a couple other posts that felt kind of overconfident and hollow, but i forgot about this post and think snaq's point is based and possibly real. They may just being townie that is over try-harding Never vote CA D1 This man seems like he's truly thinking about things and not doing that wolfy sh*t where he gets lazy and latches onto baseless pushes Helps that I am agreeing with his takes, admittedly - Clouds

To be direct, I found your partner's entrance immediately before signing off to come across as underwhelming and ever so slightly as if they felt the need to make an early appearance I don't wish to expulse anyone to the Death Note without several offenses to land them there, so of course this is no big deal for now, and largely NAI It'd be honorable for you to read up on what has been posted so far and share your thoughts with us

Not a big fan on the SpaghettiSyndicate vote without any elaboration tho, i very much think it's a slot that's easy to misrepresent (though null for me so far).

To be direct, I found your partner's entrance immediately before signing off to come across as underwhelming and ever so slightly as if they felt the need to make an early appearance I don't wish to expulse anyone to the Death Note without several offenses to land them there, so of course this is no big deal for now, and largely NAI It'd be honorable for you to read up on what has been posted so far and share your thoughts with us I actually had already caught up before entering chat. Unfortunately the bulk of what I felt held the most value came in the last few pages and I've been getting tired as I read through, so its something I'd like to revisit tomorrow after some rest so I can form some actual conclusions off of it. As for anything before the last 3ish pages; I've largely enjoyed PhoenixWrong's posting so far, although a good chunk of it was just "towny" or "wolfy," I liked their engagement when prompted by others to either elaborate or questioned on something more substantial. It felt like they were pretty direct with their reasoning and got their point across, it generally just feels like they're saying things that they believe to be true and that rings towny to me at least for now. As for why I voted SpaghettySyndicate, I honestly don't think I've seen a single message from them that has been of any real value aside from their last post, which didn't come until page 7. I also understand most of their reads being off of vibes at the current time and won't fault them for that, even though I believe they could have read something of value by that point. It did ping me as strange that they opened the readlist as being off of vibes but then felt the need to reiterate it again when scum reading Clouds/Camryn in the same list. I'm neutral on Astaroth rn but would like to make note that it feels like they've just been saying things. It feels like they've been contributing the bare minimum so far, I'll again give this a pass given how early the game still is and I can actually see where their posts are coming from even if they aren't really substantial. Mostly saying this because I would like to see more from this slot in the once the game kicks up more and believe they're capable of giving more as well. Searing Grace is neutral for me rn as well, though I'm sure there's been enough content from them for me to find something to latch onto. Planning to revisit this slot specifically after rest. Everyone else I'm neutral on without any real strong opinions to think of. -C7

Townreads - commanderations
Townleans - phoenixwrong - pqslays - SpaghettySyndicate
šÆšššš š¹ššš - No one... yet
This is my list, cam's may look different but we're agreed in some places
pqslays I'm feeling much better about after reading their posts in isolation, mixed about them earlier but turning the corner hard
For phoenixwrong, the way they flipped their read on the Aligining slot to a townread after the initial sus seems pretty anti-narrative and had progression I could mostly trace. Similar thoughts with their inverted read progression on the Searing Grace slot. I like what I've seen from them so far except them including "obligatory townslip" in that post, that irks me for obvious reasons
Heart wants to like AlexSnaq, because I liked Snaq's post inching me away from the pqslays vote for a reason that seemed legitimate and would be fairly counterproductive for scum unless they were partnered with their slot... but I highly doubt that a partner is defending a teammate of theirs so openly like that early on, so I don't expect them to be teamed with the pqslays slot at all. The flipside is that I have never played a forum game with Snaq before and have no prior experience to know if this is typical of them to do as scum, so for now, I'm just going to listen to and consider his insights without worrying too much about his alignment because it's all been helpful so far

TBC I don't want to overemphasize townreads this game given that there's 6 of you fiends out there
It's easier to fake hunting for scum when you're truly hunting for scum while also being scum yourself
So I would not even be surprised necessarily if phoenixwrong was just Koba being one scum faction and thinking Searing Grace was part of the other
There was also that AligningStars moment where he said "either faction" instead of "any faction" but that would be reading way too far into things
End of the day though, still important for town to identify each other here however possible, and I think unpartnering is a fairly useful approach here to at least begin to segment things
I would say it's pretty safe to say phoenixwrong and Searing Grace are not part of the same scum faction, for example

I'm not opposed to an astaroth vote as it stands but we should give time for a) Litt to do Actual Things and b) Spiderz entrance

Could you expand on the Prodigu townlean and Astaroth below-null read Rest I can see the angles for, and for the record I like your slot more than I dislike it right now In part because of the flippiness of your initial read --> later read on Searing Grace that didn't seem like you came in with any drive to have a preset stance on the slot I want to see if we can mediate our reads though - Clouds Still reading up (had to go to work, at page 7 right now) but i have a below-null read on astaroth so far too I think I'd like to see C7 elaborate first tho fsr I derped and said C7 here, somehow got that wired wrong in my head. Bc I think Koba is asleep my pov is the following: vote @dactylsinfluenze this is an obligatory vote from me, toni will understand hopefully -prod so what's your opinion of the thread opening right now, do you have thoughts on people who are in-thread atm; one liners also work - litteleven This post felt faux-useful to me, like they wanted to settle in the thread by being useful and prodding people, but at the same time I don't think this question really does much that early in the game, at least to a slot like Prod who hasn't done anything to indicate they refuse participating in the thread because "not enough info" From memory I also thought they hadn't said much before, but there's a few more posts before. I disliked how the entry felt a bit stuck-up, instead of being relaxed, but that is also on me forgetting their first three posts (luckily ISO seems to be working rn!). Still, as a first 'pressure' post, I don't like it though Im gonna sheep ur reads but inversd so schia is scum idek which hydra schia is on but stll speak your mind yeah; do you feel anything from the slot atm, can do better than saying words for the sake of it - litteleven same-ish impression from this. Especially at a point where they themselves haven't done anything they're been asking these slots for at this point btw this is the first post so far that is good (makes me begin to read someone) i like aggressiveness didn't really like the shift in tone wrt how they were approaching thread into this post, felt inconsistent - litteleven This post is fine. I can see what they are saying. But it doesnt hold so much weight meaning I can't tell if they're legit thinking about the game from it or just commenting on something real quick. Would have to see more as it didn't convince me they were trying to solve the game for town really. However, I've been thinking about this post for a while and cannot really gather my thoughts well, would like to hear what others think of it. I feel like there's something I'm missing or unable to explain rn Overall the slot has given me the impression that they want to be seen as 'useful' - snaq

Hey....or whatever...I am back from fighting my demons and being consumed with darkness...
Wanted to post a few of my thoughts here, some of them align with Clouds and some kinda differ.
I agree with the townread on commanderations. The way they've communicated thus far has come off as effortless and genuine, they have a sort of impulse post style which does not read as scum behavior to me.
I'm still a bit more iffy on pqslays. Admittedly this is more of a gut read from me, but some of their phrasing in their posts reads a bit off to me. Clouds mentioned this earlier but we talked about it in DMs, but the "I'll be suspicious if Grace pushes it more" (in regards to Grace talking about me and Cloud's emo posts) seemed like jumping the gun. I think what Grace said about me and Clouds was fair (even though it's not a f*cking phase), we hadn't posted a lot at the time and half of our posts incorporated us talking about our evil souls. So for pqslays to pivot to Grace coming off as suspicious if they continued to push us seemed to be a hasty conclusion at best and scummy at worst.
I am high and it is 4 AM so I will post more thoughts tomorrow, sweet nightmares....
