If I'm being entirely honest I don't have a lot in terms of scumreads, I never really do in this stage of the game, but I'm willing to vote any of Kaguya, Tenshi or Daiyousei to try and move the needle on them a bit, as they've all kinda disappeared. In general I think I should try a Marisa or Koishi-style of not-so-committal voting more, in all my games.
I’m sorry, are you surprised people are busy on a Friday night? I also question how you can really move the needle without engaging us.
I also think Yuuka’s string of posts over the past few pages are incredibly townie.

Needle has moved, everyone mentioned showed up. It's that shrimple.
Marisa I owe you an answer- I’m currently null on Sanae, but I need to allocate time to give them a reread. Kagerou or however it’s spelled I lean town on the basis they seem a bit too chaotic to be scum.

Aya-San, are you still here? I would like to grant an interview either today or tomorrow.
Oh boy, a scoop! I wouldn't be the Wind God's favourite Girl if I didn't accept! Can I take pictures for the front page?
Go right ahead! *does a cute pose*
I would like to talk about my reads for a bit. I have a dark secret... And also a light secret, too!
Ooooh, SECRETS. Do you mind if we have this interview on the record? I am nothing if not an ethical journalist. Please, go ahead, start where you feel comfortable.
My dark secret is... I am actually not that confident about my reads! I feel slightly confused by the gamestate and I think I might be townreading scum... But I don't know who it is! (maybe your questioning can help me sort it out)

Scandalous! The famous witch of the Scarlet Devil Mansion admits she's less than self assured and needs your reporter's help in solving this mystery! What a headline!
Well, if I'm going to help, I'd need to know where to dig first, what are you most unsure about?

Well, I have been thinking that Kagerou-Chan, Clownpiece-Chan, Larva-San and Kochiya-Sama are very towny! And I was also thinking that Yuuka-San was likely to be town too. I also had Ichirin-San and Koishi-San as null-scum. But after the recent pages, I started to doubt it, and think that maybe they are town... And it makes me think that maybe there was scum on their wagons, but my townreads were on their wagons!
And also, even though I am townreading Kochiya-Sama, it is true that she could be buddying me. I am concerned that I am getting tricked... I should probably reveal my light secret so you understand why.
My light secret is... I secretly live together in a castle with Kochiya-Sama! And the reason she townreads me, and I townread her, is because we had private talks that feel like we're both town. So I hope that resolves the mystery of why she's townreading me, Koishi-San! Though of course it could still be pocketing... But I don't think it is!!!
Maybe I'm overthinking it. I still feel the best about voting Ichirin-San right now. I just feel hir responses to a lot of things feel off! But I also know that if their "real life" persona is who I think it might be, then hir responses are what I'd expect! It is such a conundrum, really.

i particularly don't really understand why town koishi would say everything they've said but then vote for me and ichirin instead of sanae
I do not believe in solo voting pet scumreads because I don't think there is any point to it. Solo votes are essentially useless. No mafia is ever going to feel "pressured" off a solo vote, you're essentially giving up your voting power for no gain. A game state with 1 or 2 votes everywhere is a game that's going nowhere because mafia are never in danger of feeling pressure to do anything.
I am not "sure" Sanae is mafia; I only present my thoughts as I have them, if some people decide to listen to me and want to wagon Sanae, that's useful information and then I will likely vote there because then there's a real threat. If people are dismissive of my reads, so be it, more likely than not just on pure probability I am wrong and its not an avenue worth pursuing.
I just looked at Dai's ISO and I like her last post. Now I'm even more confused! How can I be townreading everyone???
I must think. I must come up with a plan! I must use my wits to overcome this conundrum. Maybe I'll cast a spell! If only I could read people's minds like Koishi-San...

Also I’ll add that I’ve lightened up on the kagerou read solely because of koishi who has shot up to one of my stronger townreads.
I had a pet theory that kagerou was OVERLY familiar with koishi, suggesting they were in a pt together.
I quoted the post but it seemed Fmpov that kagerou had a bead on who koishi was and that would have to come from more correspondence than was in the thread because I don’t think they had much interaction before that point?
But I’m at the point where I feel strongly that koishi is town and I’m just chasing ghosts there.
I like this read. I also felt Koishi's defense of Kageeou felt off (despite the fact that I TR'd Kagerou), so it's possible they are partnered. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
There are chaotic scum.
I genuinely haven't seen anything I could point to in Kagerou's iso and say it's obvious town.
There's always one layer or more. I think they're capable of outposting most wagons that could end up on them.
But I'm not against it, rather there aren't many wagons I would be against at this stage of the game.
