So ok went back and looked and it seems like I haven't addressed them before directly. Here's a brief iso skim thought.
They were involved in discussion on mech spec as well as were one of the players complaining about thread length. Both things are very slightly more likely to come from scum than town. (like 52-48% or something like that)

They seem to be really into my STD analysis without really explaining why. They vote STD and then later on move back to STD again without much explanation other than sheeping me. Could be pocketing me but I doubt it? More likely just looking for a place to park their vote which doesnt seem suspicious or genuinely believes in my attack on StD and wants to see where it goes. This is less likely I think because they don't really do any pushing on it. But ehhh it's hard to say this is better than rand in either direction.
In post 617, Sharing the Brain Cell wrote:okay one more thing actually: might reassess STD vote and talk with B about it when we're around later, see if B noticed anything I didn't, and go from there. thought process (because fuck your modern meta, I'm still gonna keep elaborating): I'm townreading people who are townreading STD and I feel like there's been a lot of slot interactions since then that are worth giving a closer look. I don't want scum-STD to slip away by posting less and slipping under the radar, but I also think there's probably something I've missed since our initial STD vote that is a more concrete reason to be voting someone, and I just kinda feel like my first big scumread of the first day is prooooooobably not correct because that would be too easy and I'm probably still better at correct townreads than correct scumreads. maybe that's me wifoming myself again tho. B is a more decisive person in general so maybe he'll be more useful lol.

this is a pretty weird post. townreading people who are townreading StD, but who are those people? Waffles on the read a lot in a self conscious way, and also theres some dissonance here around how seriously they're taking the read with how they're talking about it vs how they're trying to project it "I don't want scum-STD to slip away by posting less and slipping under the radar" vs "I just kinda feel like my first big scumread of the first day is prooooooobably not correct because that would be too easy and I'm probably still better at correct townreads than correct scumreads. maybe that's me wifoming myself again tho" is a weird juxtaposition when talking about the same read.
replace out is probably pretty null.
I think I have them in the correct place as slightly scummy in that they haven't really done anything and the things they've done have been kind of weird but at the same time I don't think they were scummy enough that I feel the need to not wait for what the replacement has to offer with an open mind.
