Kinetic: surprisingly enough (maybe), I've only ever been lynched as town once, and that time involved all five scum piling onto my wagon and still just barely getting the lynch. There is method to my madness.

Doesn't surprise me really. You are the type of player where only a quick-lynch or a straight trade-lynch is likely to get you lynched. If the talk lasts longer, you're likely to either poke enough holes to make people second guess or distract enough until a better target comes along.
I've seen a few good players with this trait, and its definitely one of the better practices among those players.
Also a reason why you're such a good NK target.

Amished - A strong thinker about the game. Prepared to put his views on the table and stand by them. Ability to spot scum via language tells very early, and improving his ability to look at group patterns. Openminded and prepared to switch around votes or try things to show up scum. Strong at convincing the town to do what he wants.
Only played one game with SC, but he came up with a heap of theories about the game that turned out to be pretty much dead-on; he just needs to work on selling his ideas in a way that minimises the number of assumptions required to buy into them that other people might not necessarily agree with. That's definitely the easy side of the equation, though - he's got a very keen eye for connections between people.
I think I played a smalltown game with Cyberbob. But it didn't much resemble mafia because it simply ended up being a logic puzzle due to a quirk of night choices. I don't know why I'm posting this because it doesn't describe his playstyle at all...

Benmage: He's good at flying under the radar when he's scum. Or at least he was in the game I played with him where he was SK. He would have made it far if he hadn't acted so pro-town.

^ Likes wagons. Good at faking power role. (At least I failed to pick up on it.) Seems to be a really popular scum target for mislynching. Doesn't know when he's being trolled on Epic Mafia.
