The first person to set off the SS train was predictably Camoclone. I feel like his original vote was a legit Camo-pressure vote, and then continued along his atypical "X is scum go lynch now" strategy on SS. He then called out those that placed votes for no apparent reason. SS then started saying some questionable stuff, which would probably be where his true vote came from. However, after that things become a bit odd for me. TGK became an apparent option, however Camo consistently neglected (?) the option and instead pushed the SS lynch. He was very quiet on the TGK lynch in general, and
his only comment was really just a defense. This does not sit well with me. There was also a few posts that I recall being slightly manipulative, if I am not reading too much into them. However, I think everything else Camo has done has been relatively pro-town or consistent with town Camo.
We then have Celever jumping on the SS wagon, with reasons that I also picked up. I think this vote is legitimate for that reason. I do think he has also been relatively quiet on the TGK lynch, which just like Camo, does not sit well with me. I'd say he's been more correcting logic over scumhunting, but the scumhunting is definitely still there.
We then have the mordacazir vote. This is a very odd vote in my opinion, as apparently he was just sheeping/looking up to Camo, but he still keeps the vote on. This suggests Camo/Morda scumbuddying to me, if morda flips scum. However, morda confessing (by extent) that his vote was a sheep isn't what I would've thought he'd do if he was scum. Otherwise, many of his posts and votes are a bit bandwagony, however I wouldn't say he lacked complete thought. His unvote of Empoleon_master seemed to be at least slightly thought through - I'd say his reason is legitimate. I would consider this neutral, as both town and scum would do this.
Next, the vote by TGK. It also seems odd and feels bandwagony. Furthermore, I feel like the reasoning he added to this vote is off and not legitimate, more looking like a scum player trying to not be caught out for bandwagon. I've already talked enough about TGK in the past day, so I'll just leave my analysis of him here.
The vote by Jabberwock at least came after the scummy stuff from SS. However, he never gave any reasoning, and it looks like he was tossing up between other options, so it is likely that the vote is simply a "whelp one of my scumreads is getting lynch momentum, may as well join". This makes me think townier, however it could still be scummy.
The PP vote seems legit. He gave the decent reasoning of AtE, which at the time did not seem very townie action of SS and instead manipulative. I think in general PP has been assertive and applied some pressure to lynches other than the SS lynch (i.e. the TGK lynch), so townie points there.
The Vracken vote feels very lazy. Not really a contribution, and mostly hunch or bandwagon according to his reasoning posted on prompt. Not sure what to think here just yet.
Then you have my swap of a vote, which was because of the apparent lie that Camo or Celever pointed out. I
personally think that's legitimate evidence. :U
The Xerneas vote, although technically for similar reasons to mine, feels odd. Not voting someone even after they lie (or misword terribly) and continuing to support SS with his lack of vote on him is definitely strange. It is possible that Xerneas is scum looking at maximising town credit for defending town.
Squirtle then voted himself, which is a bit annoying as we could've got a bit more information on whoever would have chosen to vote SS to reach the 12 votes mark.
I agree with what Celever and Camo said about Luis' vote being a pro-town hammer, as at that stage, SS was definitely going to end up getting lynched.
That then leads to the TGK wagon votes. You've got me sorta being the main pusher on that lynch, so take that info as you wish.
Squirtle, like me, ends up RVSing TGK, but then leaves his vote on TGK presumably due to the points I made as well as self preservation. Obviously because he's flipped town his actions can be looked in townie light.
scattered mind made a vote here and was probably the first to point out major suspicions on TGK, so I'd give townie points for scumhunting on their part. Nothing about their vote does not seem legit, so townie points all round.
Simsands later on makes their vote on TGK. I feel like the vote is honest unlike some others that seem to be forging false suspicions, and the vote *sounds* like it has been thought through a bit. I think simsands later shifted their reads to put SS as top candidate, however due to the risk of a hammer, I'd say they didn't change their vote.
Now onto the other votes. Reinforce and Athena both looks like neutral RVS votes. IE's vote also seems strange, but as he's soft-cleared town at present, I'd put it down to RVS too. The vote by GM Drac does not sit well with me at all, as the reasoning he gave has absolutely no merit, however it was made around RVS season.
Double o's vote feels like him attempting at scumhunting and comes across as legit to me. However, he seemingly fell quiet soon after his vote and around the periods when the two lynch options gained light, so definitely someone to watch.
Players that don't vote never really sit well with me because they give veeeery little information. I'm looking at The Healer's and Cypher's votes in particular. In the former's case, it looks like they sat back and commented without being ultimately influential with their vote, however this could just be a product of uncertainty. Cypher didn't really do much, contribution or otherwise, which makes the lack of a vote somewhat worse.
