Hey sorry I wasn't here for EoD. Caught up and here are my post D1 thoughts.
HumanDawn: Honestly have mixed feelings about him. The way he focused so much on the MCH situation and venting his clear frustration on MCH for a majority of Day 1, it really seemed like it was something he wasn't going to let go and vote off MCH, because as he said, no one gave him a reason not to that he made sense to him. It made the suddenly switch over to Piko all the more surprising. The sole cause of the switch was a secret reason (which feels more like an intuition; though granted so was the meta based derpclear on MCH) he just discovered towards the end of the phase. If Piko hasn't flipped scum he'd definitely look bad right now, but the scum flip makes him look just the opposite. I do find it hard to believe scum would go for a bus this early, but you never know with HD. I'm going to try to keep an open mind regarding this going forward. If you are mafia then well done sir.
Elementar: I didn't like their intentions through D1. First calling out inactives, the open but short-lived attempt at reaction-testing Mido, then going for MCH when he was under fire. It's one thing to want a lynch, but he seemed to be going for any lynch he could get. I do like that they are being open with their thoughts, but it kind of seems like a forced attempt to sound natural. Scum lean.
Life: Made some very good townie-sounding posts at the beginning in my opinion and he's acting quite natural as well. He also explains his reasoning well, and even though I don't agree with some of his points, I can see where he's coming from based on his elaboration. He was also quick to point out Piko's scum side early on, though I guess since he didn't vote him in the end it could have been to get some town cred.
M13: Posted a lot but of little quality and actual contribution. A lot of their posts seemed like fluff. Talking about themselves and the game rather than other players, and the Molten Eevee math speculation thing was just confusing and only leads to a pointless WIFOM situation. It might be something that could work later on in the game when the information is narrowed down, but for Day 1 it's just grasping at straws.
RoMCH: I said from the beginning that I think he is derpcleared town, and now I'm almost sure of it. That doesn't excuse anti-town behavior though, but luckily he's dropped the suicide thing. Hopefully he can get himself together now and start contributing properly.
Molten Eevee: That not-so-subtle softclaim still doesn't make sense to me, but he's done something like that before so it's not entirely surprising. The only good thing that came out of it is that it got people talking. The weird part is he seemed to get very defensive once others starting probing him over his claim, which he should have seen coming when he made the claim.
Sunsette: They've made fair posts with solid reasoning, so they are not a concern at least. I like that they admitted their reads weren't the clearest in hindsight and was willing to go along with others judgment (while not claiming it as their own); which paid off ultimately.
jdthebud: Don't really like his posts because a lot of the stuff is either a summary, game stuff, or just obvious things. Tone sounds a bit forced as well.
Zexy: Playing well, openly sharing his thoughts, contributing a lot to the discussion. Strong town lean here. The only thing that worries me a bit is the HD-Zexy interaction. I can't tell if it's just town-town arguments or one is trying to edge on the other. I initially thought they could be scumbuddies but after the way they simultaneously voted Piko I think that's really unlikely now.
Midorikawa: Two words; aggressive and wallposts. Despite commenting on so many things and being all over the place, it's still proving difficult to pinpoint a read her because she's been consistent so far. I would like to know here what she has to say about the MCH situation after Piko's lynch though.
Space: A bit iffy about them showing up late to side with the piko lynch without actually voting. Other than that there's nothing too noteworthy or alarming about their posts.
Calvin: Hasn't done much but has tried to contribute. I get an "honest townie" vibe from the tone of his posts but nothing concrete to back it up unfortunately.
