Notes from reading through:
Crazy is not Saber's team due to PoV mixup.
Paltry is very pro-town here; people pushing for sens lynch as punishment for replacing are scummy.
False and scummy strawman. They clearly stated PoV should be used to put a scummy candidate up when there is none, NOT to protect a suspected town nominee
This insistence on HOH following town's will is ridiculous. It's better to shoot 2 random than follow advice from a 6/13 scum distribution (and even better to just put your top suspects on top).
Everyone should share who they suspect and why, but the HOH should not be limited to following any majority (or plurality) decision.
The HOH should consider what everyone says, but it's far more important to see a history of which players are suspicious of whom and willing to vote for whom.
Strong agreement. THIS is the PRIMARY reason for voting the nominees as well. Secondary could be to see stuff from others that you missed and third to check your thoughts against others (both should be lower than your own beliefs).
Strongly dislike how this was handled. Sounds like an attempted appeasement without care for finding scum. I suspect SlySly may be scum. The DC nomination doesn't look like a plausible bus (DC is still potentially scum, but I don't think DC and Sly can be on the same team).
Thoughts on everyone, these will likely develop as I take time to go back and read each player in iso:
Sly- Probscum. The pick of kmd could legitimately be a gut feeling on kmd. The pick of sens could be OMGUS (understandable because sens is a pretty bad player who just likes pushing people's buttons). However, the pick of BV makes no sense as a townie.
AM- Pretty irrational. Has pushed some weak posts that look like feelers for a mislynch.
MF- Neutral. No read on him. Don't remember any noteworthy posts.
Llama- Neutral. Not much read on him. Don't see Sly's argument against him.
KMD- Neutral. He hasn't posted anything that sounds convincing, but his behavior so far seems typical of his behavior in most games and not indicative of any affiliation.
Sir-Neutral. Nothing memorable.
SB-Neutral. Nothing memorable.
pablito-Neutral. Posting reasonably and getting others to post.
Crazy- Neutral/positive. Almost no read on him other than the note above.
saber-Neutral/positive. I get a slightly town read on saber. I don't agree with a lot of what he has posted, but a lot of it sounds genuine and sounds like a townie who is trying.
PE-Pro-town/positive/possible links. I don't agree with the decision to use the PoV right away, however, I understand the usage and it is a playstyle disagreement, not anything affiliation indicative. I don't think there is enough information available on D1 for any townie to accurately determine that two other players are so likely to be town that one of them should be veto'ed. Clearly PE thought differently.
BV- Neutral. Nothing stood out from the previous players, but BV himself seems more interested in actually playing this game. I don't see the reasons behind naming him. Moderately informative lynch since I don't think BV and Sly can be on the same scum team.
Hewitt- Almost everything Sens posted was irrational and/or emotional junk. Nothing scummy per se; unfortunately, Sens stubborn, irrational playstyle is good at hiding anti-town behavior as playstyle-based instead of affiliation-based. Hewitt seems much more interested in actually playing the game and finding scum. In recent posts, Hewitt seemed a bit desperate, however, this is null since townies SHOULD want to avoid being lynched. I think Hewitt would still be an informative lynch, however, the information would not be as specific as with BV.
I'd like to know if either of them will select an HOH who will nominate Sly as one of his two choices.
