whats your role name in the pm?
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

it's less than that because of the lynch too, and cops wouldn't operate in a vacuum where each person has an equal chance of being investigated

it also leaves room for an errant vigilante if there is one of those as well

I believe those claims at surface level (I don't know how strongly I feel about the town-alignment, but hey, we can deal with that later).

A50's play comes off as awkward, but believable. I'm still not confident in SuperBowl (thus why I am sceptical of their alignment), but I can at least see that avenue from their posting.

this slot is making it difficult to play and it feels like they're doing this deliberately. can you block one player's posts and read the thread? kinda like an opposite iso?
Skimming over our posts would work, but I'd like to hear what about us is making it difficult to play? There's plenty of single account players who'd have more posts than us by this point, and only about 1/3 of what I'm posting is outright jokes. Even if you just skimmed our posts then let your other townreads read us then you'd have a fairly easy solution.

Also, the passive agreesive garbage here doesn't help. If you aren't specific about what you don't like then it's literally just you complaining and doesn't help anyone or change anything. If you have a problem then hey, tell us what the actual problem you have with us is and be specific.

people posting updates on what page(s) they have read is the most suspicious thing to me

it clogs threads with incomplete/useless information and creates an illusion of productivity
See now this is the kind of think you could meta someone for if you want to know whether or not it's scum or town indicative for the player. Like, you can get objective evidence either way of this so why not give it a go?
In post 1299, Nero Cain wrote:ban hydra could be scum that is bloating up the thread (I agree with GP and feel better about them now)
Can you define the bloat part- is this something different to half of our stuff being jokes? We have more serious content than most people in this thread and you clearly know Hectic is going to meme post as either alignment so I don't get how you reach the conclusion of 'lots of posts > scum' here. I don't scumread you for it, I want to understand it because your approach doesn't feel like it's leading to good reads for you.

do you agree/disagree? obviously because I think that it would risk wasting a night of a cop ability I do think they should claim though, yes
As Titus explained that's a minor thing with less than a 5% probability, so I'm not worried about it. Still, if they want to out I won't stop them.

Sure! We offer some of the highest quality false result packages on the east coast. Since we're still interns, I can only tell you so much about our supply chain, but we've advertised at high-quality events such as the superbowl between the vikings and the steelers and we have as many as 50 monkeys advertising our product line!

Role description though was in the mod's opening post inside the PT. In other words, I wasn't told my alignment or my abilities in my role PM. Just the name and a link to the PT.

(This does add fuel to my fire in thinking that Plus-Gamma-Bell-Norwegian-MorningMage has a reasonably high chance of containing at least 3, probably at least four, scum. Maybe not all five are scum, heck maybe two are town, but I do think that those five names contain a minimum of 3 scum, probably more, right now.)
This is a very good POE.

I didn't want to have to do this, but Nero didn't leave me much choice tbh. Here's the game where NERO made over
