1) baltar owned

2) I voted Marci because I was pissed basically and really did not feel like engaging in that moment

3) I feel like you've brought this up multiple times and no one has explained this but @TSQ dannflor being a deepwolf is just a meme. The real reason people called him scum is because his predecessor did nothing and his posts were unimpressive
Why was it unimpressive?

A good number of the people in my distrust list I has earlier could qualify as scum suspects
but you suggested that there were 5 scum earlier so why is your team guess only 3? I know you'll point to your 3rd sentence but I still find it odd that your guess was only 3 hard reads and not 5. I'm not really sure why Dats and Frog weren't included in your guess or why relly leap frogged them.

There could be 4 or 5 scum reasonably, so I am acknowledging there might be another
At this current point, I’m not pressed to seek out that last person if it exists, I will wait until more scum flip to figure that out.

I'll have to reread the posts but that seems like a slight mischaracterization of what he said imo, I think he was saying that town players do get overwhelmed and replace out with a similar level of frequency to scum not that replace outs are +town equity, which is something I tend to agree with.

Maybe I'm wrong about them though.

the point is that there will be no less than 4 scum so when you say this like "if it exists" "there might be" it makes it seem like you are trying to look uniformed and just sketch in general.

Neros point seems pedantic at best even if I think gamma is likely scum for different reasons.

Dann diid you ever address this

I was being coy but I'll just assert now that strikes me as a fairly scummy post from FB

In post 2211, Dannflor wrote:I have historically never known how to read Firebringer and generally have been bad at attempting

The only thing that leapt out to me from him was his reaction to Datisi, where he reflexively prodded datisi when he was prodded

I thought that interaction was mildly townie from both slots
I guess there was this as a response

idk I thought that reflexive prod was weird in how quickly it turned into a TR, as Datisi himself pointed out. I would expect town to be a bit more guarded
