There. This is basically a summary for why anyone could think Kuragawi42 is town... 4 posts with nothing interesting of note.
Especially on a quiet day like this, I don't think a lack of interesting stuff in a person's first four posts is scummy. I'm leaning toward reading any activity as townie right now. It's almost like a quiet LyLo/MyLo when scum wants to make sure no one talks and potentially changes the lynch. Of course, though, it would be silly to lynch someone right now for being quiet, because so is everyone. (Really, there are no lynches I can feel decent about because no one's coming out of their shell.)

Gossemerr has an interesting, albeit tiny, 3 posts. Clearly, he/she has a bit of spunk for the response towards DoYouHas.

Personally, I would like to hear from the newbies. What is their experience with mafia, why they are town, just generally being active. If we can get the newbies active they won't be easy scapegoats for scum and we should have a more productive d1. Are you implying we would be easy scapegoats based solely on #/length of posts? Maybe you want newbies to post a lot to clutter up the thread and muddle pro-town progress 
So far of the rather bland newbies and actually despite the slightly shorter filter, I'm less inclined to lynch Gossemerr. I like the attitude. His response toward DoYouHas gives a glimmer of illusion that he is reading and thinking. He shall be tossed in the townpile for now.

Interesting question without much actual throughput.
DoYouHas's goal to involve the nubians in the game is honorable if boring.
Overall his points on Tumblewood are uninspiring, however, the unflipped association read to Artanis is a bit much. However, that paranoia is more in line with actual paranoia than keeping up general appearances. Perhaps town for his paranoia.

Activity is non-alignment indicative in general. In this specific case with low activity and low votes, I'd lean far more toward scum being in the more active side of town.

It's interesting to me that LightningStrike trying for this goal while actually producing quite little content. He/She has many posts finding an excuse to not call someone scum and even goes so far to post:
On April 05 2016 22:56 LightningStrike wrote:Morning any thoughts so far?
Besides not making him/herself an easy townread based on emotions, he/she hasn't actually made any attempt to push content or force through content. I'd surmise that he/she is rather passive as scum. Not a bad lynch.

For Artanis[Xp] being someone who seems to be deferred to for some extent of players, he/she has basically spent time doing relatively nothing. Interesting that for someone who seems to be a mainstay in these parts would neither drive nor lead discussion. Not an awful lynch, however I'm not terribly interested in lynching protoss. I'd rather nuke them if the option came up.

If for nothing else, I have no interest in lynching Damdred for this post alone. Despite his/her short filter with mostly mediocre posts, coming to the same synthesis as myself on LightningStrike makes me feel some minor kinship. I'll toss him/her on the townpile for now.

boxerfred is uninspiring at best with 2 posts one of which is a boring and short summary post. The only interesting thing about his/her filter is that it makes me want to lynch Race Bannon even more for calling boxerfred town.

While I'm relatively unimpressed with Tumblewood in general, I'm not terribly excited to lynch him/her right now. His/her filter is poor at best; however, there's a mechanic thought process to this post in that he/she has to put it into a post in order to work through it. There's something I can understand about that which I am able to sympathize with. I think that Tumblewood may be town though I'm currently of the mind to hedge a bit.

GlowingBear has 10 posts. A boring opening. A joke vote. A short explanation of said joke vote. A townread I don't agree with based on poor-at-best speculation. A bland innuendo. A short rebuttal over nothing. A dumb question. A dumber question. Finally, a gif. Would lynch, especially as all his/her activity has been at the start of the day.

I for right now will guess with voting Race Bannon, however, I'm not terribly against lynching most players to my terrible displeasure.

CHodge gets 100% of the daily ration of town points for providing the only real reads of the game.

@Race Bannon: Do you still stand by your TRs on GB and boxer? If so, why do you think a confident opening is townie?

Actually DYH has a good point there. If I roll scum I tend to overexpain myself, too. Hm not sure, initially I liked the casing but yeah.

Not sure if I like that "I'm slightly pissed and you're bad" sort of defence.

you're so wishywashy :/

Would lynch Damdred or Tumblewood thus far. Damdred basically for not being as good as town Damdred is normally, Tumblewood because he's switching between rational arguments, "you're bad/wrong" and this uncommiting wishywashyness.
##vote Tumblewood
Or, any lurker.

I do and I didn't mean just the first post. Boxer in his follow up and response to questioning blatantly calls the play useless, hence doesn't shy away from anymosity nor does he overelaborate in light of the scarce evidence at that early stage, the way I imagine self-conscious scum would compensate for insecurity.
GlowingBear reminds me of Koshi with whom I have a dayphase of history, and he was town.
Spicy exhibits the same sort of reticence he did in the last game as town while Damdred doesn't strike me any different, so that's a town and scumread respectively.
By the way we should prepare and organize suspicions and arguments into persistent snowball cases the way some sites handle sign-ups; by copy-pasting the acumulated data and adding their input on top, for easier reviewing later. If we do this a mislynch following the chaos of a fake claim like the one I was subjected to last game seems less likely to happen in my second game here as well. The last minute hysteria which seems a recurring phenomenon is silly and bad for town.

Pretending not to know me is pretty boring.
There's basically no one I have a strong opinion on so far. I find your strong opinion on RB to be pretty baseless. The comments you compared him with I find less interesting than RB's reads.
Liking DYH. I don't agree with his strong scumread on TW, but I think he believes what he's saying.
TW looks a little townie to me as well. The confidence in this post mostly:

Basically taunting DYH into tunneling him more. I feel Mafia is likely to be more careful.
Prob willing to lynch GB or Spikasaur currently. GB because I thought he was going with my opening of starting up the game by pretending to be suspicious of me, but then doing nothing with it. Spikasaur because of the wishywashiness that CHodge already pointed out.
Putting my vote on GB for now. As I said pregame I intend to spend less time on the game because I tend to get carried away. Will be back from one hour before deadline till deadline.
