You make a few good points and a few bad points and I ultimately disagree with your conclusion.
That was my interpretation of what happened at the moment of writing the post. I have, at least partially, reconsidered how Replica was involved into it. I'd still like to hear your towncases of Hectic and Chara, up to date with d2 content.

I didn't like Bingle's recent posting and his Hectic vote to be fair, but without a flip i'm not making much of it. I would have him above the null line, but that's mainly because i wish to explore alternatives first, and because i think we can get more out of his slot. I know town!Bingle can produce good content as town, even when not particularly interested in the game he's playing. Still referring to the cult game modded by Kerset, for the record. As for almidia, i wasn't scumreading him before he went MIA and replaced out. I wouldn't be satisfied to compromise on his lynch today, there are far better names i can think of, and i believe those reads can be refined before day end by talking more about them (this is mostly wrt hectic/chara and to a lesser extent replica/psyche). I also want to hear what Nacho has to say, he is also a townlean of mine that i think could contribute to the current discussion.

Why did i re-read Hectic specifically and not another player? Because i was skeptical about Hectic behavior during the end of d1, specifically starting from his interactions towards Chara. Then, the d2 post where he promotes a spare on its slot rang another bell to me, that resonated with his previous d1 post where he voted Chara. I went back and checked, and found out that the first fight vote wasn't particularly off tonewise or contentwise - but when Hectic enters d2 promoting a spare on Chara, i asked myself what was the purpose of that. How could it be a genuine scumread? Why would hectic place a pretty much vanity FIGHT vote on Chara for so little reason, when he was strong on his own spare (and ultimately on sparing suji too)? Why does Hectic enter d2 with a preference for the 4-spared route and includes Chara in it, after what happend there? I thought of one possible reason: distancing. And that's the second bell that alarmed me: why isn't Chara AT LEAST a bit paranoid of this, instead introducing itself by healing hectic? Why didn't it ask Hectic for an explanation? That is, because Chara accepted the distance put between them as a good thing. That's what led me to think they are the most plausible scumteam right now. Everything that i can think of right now would match this theory. This does not mean it's 100% correct, but i do want to pursue it, engage more with the people involved (nothing from Chara made me change my mind, though), and possibly get a flip to learn more.
Farkran pal.
why does loser!Chara unvote loser!me yesterday while I'm on L-1 from being SPARED (iirc)?
y'know, what's the purpose of longing out the SPARE on me?
and why does loser!me ask Suji not to hammer?
i wanted to hear from the two replacements so i asked Suji to not hammer.
admittedly, i'm been putting off rereading you and the EoD yesterday because it's a lot, and i mean a lot to go through.
like, the page number this game is relatively short, but the posts are
thick
.
but tomorrow i'll hopefully put some time aside an explain my Chara townread based on her EoD actions, and i'll have another look at you.
hopefully not another broken promise.
I have already explained quite in detail about why scum!Chara unvotes scum!Hectic and why scum!Hectic wants to extend the day. It's in my late ISO, see my exchange with Chara around post ~1100 (give or take a few). My main case, however, is for you as my main scumread and Chara as your partner. What i would like to hear from you is:
1. What made you scumread Chara when it unvoted you in late d1. It was you who chose to extend the day, why would you go as far as to cast a vanity FIGHT vote on Chara for sparing Replica in your stead? It's weird, almost like you already savored the spare on you but then regret not grabbing it when you had the opportunity to. Chara backpedaling using your publicly displayed regret as a reason to townread you is also quite weird, but we're still in the realm of the acceptable here.
2. What made you reconsider Chara so much as to include it in your 4-spared route today? It really, really seems to me that your whole behavior around Chara is based on how Chara read you.
And finally - but i guess you will not answer this - i am very concerned about how Chara itself reacted to this really unusual progression toward it. Chara should have questioned you about your sudden and significant change of mind. At least develop a little, sane amount of paranoia towards your slot. Instead, it just entered d2 healing you. Without saying a word.
