Doing a recap reviewing Enchants ISO and organically from 27 up to now.
To preface I had a decent town lean on Enchant like I mentioned in
746 from my review of the majority of the beginning of the game, I felt them very interesting with how they engaged whether intentional or not, causing reactions provoking discussion, not trying to hide away and blend into the background. Early game posts gave me that town vibe from them, i felt it more of a hunch from their behaviour and how they interacted with others.
Posts tended to be many but lacking depth and content, choosing to be more concise with their actions whether out of lack of interest for the game or trying to be mysterious.

471 he calls EZ out when he places his vote on a weaker scum read and not himself, I know some disagree but I think that is a legitimate read.
478 Was where I found his a bit sus, I didnt really understand his reasoning behind pre-claiming he would hammer anyone put to L-1. I could see some townie motive to it, on again pushing a motive to prevent a lolhammer.
577 he defends himself making a point about his serious and not serious behaviour and it all being read the same,
581 His refusal to review EZs wall isnt helping him and does appear scummy.
In the following posts after he seemed comfortable to egg on players to put their vote on him without seeming too uncomfortable about it more as if it is a challenge.
To preface this next part I can see definite scum motives behind the bizarre actions that Enchant chose to take from here on, but since the vast majority seem to be on the lynch Enchant train and it being scummy to view him as anything other than scum, I wish to play devils advocate and just try and look at things from a well what if enchant is town, perspective and if so what might be going on in Enchants head in this case. With everyone so focused on blanket scum claiming him I want to assess the possibility that it's not a 100% guarantee, because for me its not.
661 The post before the self vote he shares his opinion on Prism and welcomes quiet, not very like someone who wishes to leave the game.
In between that time and
691 where he self votes, he receives a vote from both Flow Trap and EZ. Quiet brings up about the L-1 hammer by Enchant if its still a thing in
686
I'm not sure if Enchant hadn't checked the previous posts and just voted himself as a reaction tester to see who might jump on it. there are 3 minutes after he places the vote on himself before he posts
692 so I personally believe in them 3 minutes he checked after he had placed the self vote and saw the other votes on him.
I know it is probably very unlikely but it could be possible that he thought he self hammered and this was his reaction as the last message to chat before the chat would be locked. and it wasnt until
695 where EZ informed him he didnt self hammer that he then unvoted himself in
696 after EZ jokes about someone coming along to hammer him.
I dont like Quiets
697 In the same post he says
"But you weren’t super at risk from my perspective; I thought some of this was pressure"
and then follows it up with
"So uh, basically, I’m probably going to hammer you later today when I catch up"
He goes from in his eyes Enchant not being at risk and seeing some of the votes as pressure to then telling him he is probably going to hammer him, it feels a bit opportunistic in my eyes.
700 comes across to me as genuine town that has given up and doesnt know where to turn as it seems like everyone is scum reading him and he doesn't know what else to do, he follows that up by trying to open dialogue with quiet in
701 open dialogue being the opposite to what he has been accused of doing of trying to end the day early and stopping conversation.
704 After quiet tries to talk him out of self voting he explains why in 704 if he is around long term it will be harmful to town with,
"even if i save myself now, i hardly believe in ability to clean self later, where my death can decide game."
That feels to me as a very townie mindset to have where he is putting the best interests of the town before himself, something that scum wouldn't do.
712 again explaining the rationale for why his self hammer or at the very least death in general would benefit town, why would scum do that?
Personally I feel like Enchants is a provocative player by behaviour who I think has scum on his wagon, and I refuse to join this wagon.
Read through and thoughts are up to page 30 atm, need to go out to the shop right now will continue when I get back.
