Time to move

Sultan I feel like everyone has a half decent power potentially

Dumey, why do you believe Sultan is town? Or at least why do you want to veto his lynch?

Player read. Early in topic did classic silly Sultan moves of misreading Wallz joke, having to have it explained, and walking back. Felt like classic Sultan. Later when Sultan is giving actual reads, he's giving player meta and not afraid to snap at the heels of more dangerous players like Blade. I remember Chris in one game specifically saying that this ankle biting was one thing he always looks for in Sultan.

So classic Sultan, no angry Sultan, no Sultan making terrible arguments (like what happened in Dating Mafia where he was scum and doubled down on some crazy stuff), and Sultan giving solid player reads on solid players, all point to me leaning town on him.

I was about to vote sultan... you probably could have kept that quiet.

I panicked when I saw Sultan's vote without even realizing it wasn't valid

The reasoning he added was more than town would need yes.
Tho I dont think it says much about Peaf either way since he had to vote Peaf

Peaf/Sultan most likely aren't scum together so.

Sultan went too far to quantify a self-preservation vote. I specifically asked him who he thought was scum. It'd have been a lot more believable if he said me but voted Peaf for self-perservation.

The scumread on Peaf just feels made up.

What about the kind of interesting dynamic here around Peaf/Sultan/Wallz.

Peaf read Sultan's criticism of Blade wrong, probably out of a little bias toward Sultan. Now they are teaming up to vote Blade. And now that Blade is actually getting a couple of votes, Wallz seems to be hedging and looking elsewhere.

The Wallz part of this might just be coincidental timing and not related to the other two.

Going back to this post from t2.88 for a minute. I never felt like wallz was a prominent part of my interactions with Sultan or Blade. Dumey, can you elaborate on how you made that connection? Because I'll be honest, it looks like you just wanted a third name of [active player] to add in.
