Alright, I'm finally caught up. I'm not going to give detailed reads because that will require me to do at least some ISO work going through everyone's posts, but I will give basic thoughts about where I see everyone currently. It's subject to change, but then what isn't?
JenKiggans2026 - Null. I hope whatever landed you in the ER is largely resolved. Can't read much into your thoughts from your few posts so far, just not a lot of reads. Stating that he's used to live in-person Mafia as pushback to his providing more insights earlier is rubbing me the wrong way, but could be true, so null for now.
Banana - Lean town. Strong opening set of posts with a serious set of reads and a lot of detailed questions. If it's a ploy, she's gotten really good at it because this looks like solid scumhunting and analysis.
Thoth - Slight town. Largely comes from the same place as many have mentioned with the apparent error in his PM, just doesn't seem like something he'd mention if he's scum. That isn't because I think he wouldn't draw attention to himself (he often does as scum), but because this doesn't match the usual pattern I expect to see from him as scum. I may elaborate later, but this seems more like townie Thoth.
Pie - Slight town/null. More of a vibe check that's leaning towards the former. A lot of NAI behaviors should put me solidly in the latter camp, but his response to pressure is tugging me towards the townread. He's rarely pushed this hard this early, but usually pushes back harder on giving his claim, something I'd expect more from him as scum. Still, that doesn't feel like a strong behavioral cue, so I'm leaving him a bit on the fence.
Kohai - Null. I was kind of sussing him earlier in the DP when he said Pie was targeting him because they were teammates as scum last game, which seemed a little strange, but it's also the kind of paranoia I've seen from Kohai before. The current read on the potential Mag1c/Pie team seems a little unlikely (I don't think Mag1c creates distance with his partner and then drops it that quickly), but I can at least understand his concern about each. I end up landing in the middle after swinging a bit.
Vader - Slight scum. Don't love the FoS On Kiggans and a little wary of him piggy-backing on Luna's reasoning to put a vote on Mag1c without much reasoning. Feels a little opportunistic on both fronts, given Kiggan's relative absence and Mag1c already becoming a major focus.
Luna - Lean town. I've often agreed with his reads, but his thoughts on Mag1c in post swayed me more than usual. I can see how he derived his conclusions from a pattern of behavior and read choices that he sees from Mag1c. I want to dig more into that read and see if I come to the same conclusions independently, but the pushback from Mag1c on each of those changes to his reads hasn't looked great.
Mag1c - Null. I'd like to go through all of his reads and see if I can understand the changes he's made over the course of the DP. Setting that aside for now, I'm a little baffled by the sudden influx of posts just before he thought the DP would end and the vote on Kiggans that accompanied that sudden flurry. Possible he was just frustrated by what looked like a no lynch in progress, or it could just be an effort to get the last word in before the DP closes and look like he's the only one who cares. Haven't decided which.
