That does help me with not having to sort my partner, now I can just jam out reads

I really wanna know how Pvt ends up sorting/reading Gamma. I was discussing with Nancy that I think Gamma is town during intermission, but it's really hard to sort her given her presence in the game and the fact that she hasn't been fully into it. It'll probably be easier/more effective in a PT where Gamma is focused and isn't distracted with squabbling about random things.
pedit: or Gamma can jam out reads and we can read her better that way lol

If you're town, probably this. This is downside/upside of not lynching in Dance 1; it means the IC is on a lower-ranked pairing, and so the partner will be under more suspicion (rightfully or wrongfully).

Were you stated to be the first lynch?
It throws suspicion on me first of all, especially as someone stated yesterday that they thought me vs. PvT was SvT.
Also, if you're scum, it makes you safer or at least forces town to get rid of their IC to get rid of you.
The NK makes sense. RC/Ank had become pretty much universally town read and Krazy and I both have a decent amount of paranoia directed towards us

Missed the bit about you vs. Pvt being SvT from whomever it was, then. And I think it was SS and a few others saying I was the first lynch unless something changed.

I'm slightly more inclined to think the IC was put on a scum pair if only to force town to get rid of it early.
Like, scum knows the lower pairs aren't going to last long regardless. If they put it on a town pair, they risk the pair towning it up and becoming a threat. At least this way they can either save an already dead-in-the-water scum or force town to get rid of their IC.
Those are my initial thoughts, someone check my logic please

Gamma, what are your reads? You didn't get to participate too much in the last phase so I'm unsure what your general thoughts are about the game

You would expect scum to pick someone more widely obvtown read, which would of course be Taly but a moment reveal would have been less strange than Urist.

very hesitant on this because I was town reading Gamma during intermission
i.e., the IC selection could be to cast doubt onto Gamma, if she is town, for the wifom involved
What about the “paranoia Dann” part?

Vedith - Firebringer
RadiantCowbells - Ankamius
Dr Worm - Pink Ball
Krazy - Taly
Dannflor - Nancy Drew 39
Moment - TheBrie
DoubtingThomas - Something_Smart
PvtUrist
- Gamma Emerald
Allomancer
So far my reads haven't been off by much (I had both Pvt and Allo as town, and didn't bother sorting RC or Ank much but was liking Ank early pretty much because I liked what she was arguing) so I feel like I should just pick back up from my last read list and just add on to that rather than adjusting anything.

Moment I want to stop ignoring me. I have reads, but they're certainly incomplete and there's a lot of circlejerking around the same slots which doesn't help.

This is what I found of your reads. Are DT and Dr. Worm still your top suspects?

What is your reads’ order?

I wrote this right at the end of pre-dance and just failed to post it in time twice.
At FakeGod's palace was a mighty ball
With dapper gentlemen and ladies fair
But genders found unequal numbers there
And it was clear there was not room for all.
As couples lined themselves up 'gainst the wall,
Poor Allomancer was without a pair.
He left, disgraced, enraged at the affair
That, once had seen him proud, now saw him fall.
But Allomancer won't be soon forgot!
His sacrifice will not be made in vain
His journey ended so ours could begin.
For him we'll unravel this awful knot
Triumphantly repeating this refrain:
"For Allomancer's sake, and for the win!"
