I've been finishing up a new set I want to use.
Why not just ask the questions? This seems unnecessarily roundabout.
If I was wanting town approval before I did something then why did I not wait for a positive response before posting?
Some people are roundabout in the things they do. However, it doesn't mean that they don't get anything done.
That was more me signifying that I was about to post my questions then anything. If I had gotten a response, positive or negative, I would not have pulled back from my original opening.

If this is non-sarcastic then I'm holding you to this - I'd like to hear what actual alignment-indicative or otherwise useful content you're getting out of these questions.
Also of all games to feel like you need to force an RQS or RVS, this is a very silly one. We have
a claim. On page one. An unusual one at that. We have a goldmine of material to analyze already - why do you feel the need to instigate an RQS? RQS and RVS as they're usually conceived are both kind of outdated anyway. There's usually enough substance in the first few posts to get reads that are legitimate enough to argue about, even if they're very unstable.
Yes, I like to review the question results to see if I can divine some alignments. Why not contribute to the game with your answers?
I don't know if Eager claiming ascetic at day start is more likely to come from town, or scum. So I'm doing something I'm more familiar with.
I'm interested why you find my entrance poitenally scummy when you feel Zoronos is legitimately scummy. If you thought that Zorones was implying I'm scum then why was your initial reaction to my post, "well that's kinda scummy"? Sorry, but its weird that you'd have me as a tertiary scum read while your top scum is, in your opinion, also scum reading me. If you think he is scum, why do you think I am scum too?
I am not seeing much town intent with these pushes of yours.

Because I don't vote the instant I have an inkling of suspicion. Or moreover, because the simple act of asking the questions isn't necessarily scum play. Using the questions as a sole form of contribution on the other hand is (which doesn't necessarily mean Grendel, a townie putting down that kind of list gives the scum room to dwell on it to contribute, so it isn't even that Grendel is scum for doing it, it's just pro-scum to exist). So yes, I'd rather take the hard line early and nip camouflaging play in the bud.
Or maybe these boards don't have a conception of 'fake content' or maybe I'm using the wrong jargon to explain the idea. If I'm unclear, well.
Okay, gun to your head: Am I mislead town, or misleading mafia?
I disagree what you are saying about RQS, but I'll have to wait until I've gotten a decent sample size before I post full reasoning.
In the meantime it'd be super nice if you'd humor me and play along.
