I haven't posted reads because everyone has been null for me so far, but if you would like a further breakdown of null, here you go.
whiteflame -- While he was apparently townread last game, I saw nothing that tipped me one way or the other. He was cautious, analytical, weighed every sus carefully, and even before he VTL'd he reserved some doubts. All of this is NAI for him. I initially kicked around some speculation about whether his assertion that a mass claim was "game-breaking" indicated anything, as this seemed a little much, but even that was meh. scum!whiteflame doesn't go "omg no!" like that.
Thoth -- As much as everyone made a big fuss about him suggesting a mass claim and then not being the first to claim, it was unremarkable to me. He threw it out there and then wanted to discuss pros and cons, he wasn't flooring the gas on the suggestion. You don't volunteer your claim first if you think the mass claim might not go off anyway. When he was pressed to claim it was for derogatory reasons, so big whoop, he didn't immediately do it. What pushed me to a vote was the Bus Driver claim. It sounded suspicious and it was pretty much all I had to go on. As usual I also took the "but it's too swingy and town-sided!" arguments too seriously.
Helz -- Helz is always reading a lot into things that I just don't see, and he gets very focused on details and goes all in on his interpretations of them. Totally NAI. This detail-oriented nature can also make him highly critical of people who haven't given him many details to go on yet, so his current FOSes don't surprise me. I agree with Pie that his behavior this DP is a little too out there to be comfortably scumread. I've got a bit of a town lean on him now. This is subject to change.
Banana -- I like what I've seen from her so far and her reads have mirrored my own, but that is very often the case, even when she's scum, so I always need to take it with a big grain of salt. I've got no real reason to scumread her though. I like her activity and participation this DP. I don't really think Helz's interpretation of whiteflame's second post is super suspicious, more baffling than anything.
Pie -- As either town or scum Pie just goes after the weakest target DP1 and squeezes. Unless something more concrete develops, town usually just follows along since it's the path of least resistance. Totally NAI for him. I fully admit I have Pie!anoia, as if Pie is scum and town isn't super active, that's just gg. There's no chance. In a low-activity game Pie is usually posting a lot, voicing impatience with town for being inactive, and I just haven't seen that from him this game, so my eyebrow is raised. If he's scum it would make sense to be less active than usual DP1, get rid of whiteflame, then dominate the conversation later. But this could all just be muh Pie!anoia, so meh.
Rex -- Sporadic posting: NAI. Goes along with the LHF wagon on Thoth: NAI. Thinks the mass claim is dumb: NAI. Doesn't fall for the obvious RT: NAI. Argues Thoth's role is too late-game swingy to be real: NAI. He's a town lean because of the Miller claim, that's it.
wylted -- He was pretty gung-ho for the mass claim, but when isn't wylted an impulsive dice-roller. He talked too much about which roles indicate which characters than I would like when scum have the list they have, but when isn't wylted an impulsive talker. Jumped on Helz pretty fast for the odd interpretation of whiteflame's second post, but when isn't wylted an impulsive voter.
