I mean.
It's not impossible he's town, but like.
You shouldn't make promises like this without a backup plan in place because it can and will backfire because right now I feel like I'm entering into "spot the scum" mode of a specific type.
Rather.
This is a playerlist which, by and large, if I had to give it a type of playstyle, I'd call, "sub-par". (No offense meant, but Momra, Mathdino, and LUV are the only three players which I'd call skilled-as-town, and LUV is conditional on him playing from a specific mindset.)
One of my initial troubles is that it was a playerlist that, thanks to their type of playstyle, my normal methods of scumhunting were a little out of focus.
Because things that I'd normally hone in on would be invalid in this sort of environment, more or less.
But I think I've managed to adjust it more or less.
In this environment.
Looking for "things which sound town" or "things which look scum" isn't going to work.
I guarantee it, it'll backfire hardcore.
Instead you have to look deeper. I had some difficulties, but I BELIEVE I've recalibrated such that I've now got a fair idea what to hone in on. (For instance, Beefster might be too high on my town list. If I'm wrong on a townread, it's most likely him.)
You have to instead not think "does this look town?" and instead look for "is this actually town?". Mathdino, undeniably, 'looks' town. By which, I mean, he 'sounds' like he is helping the town. But the question to look for is whether what he is saying is actually driven by town. This is the same metric I am rating Momrangal by, and both of them have not only failed it, but have passed (or failed depending on your perspective) the inverse test.
This is not a game where you're going to get a town win by lynching the most scummy players every day.
This game is filled to the brim with players I'd call lynchbait--it'd be ridiculously easy to lead lynch after lynch. So what you look for from scum is basically evidence of the long game. Evidence of taking root to create long-term interactions which keep the slot kicking. Things which are driven by scum.
My accuracy is such that it wouldn't surprise me to be wrong about having the scumteam pegged.
I individually scumread all three and I see associatives from all three which indicate they're the scumteam, but I'm not a scumhunting goddess so I know I can and will be wrong. So sure. Mathdino could in fact be town.
But I really don't think so. Mathdino has set roots. He has set a plan down. I'm not sure if you ask me to do so that I'd be able to walk you through his process of having laid those roots. Especially since I don't know for sure what his scumteam is. (I don't think you're on it for what it's worth. In fact this post alone makes me pretty damn sure you're town.) But what he has done is to establish a presence and set up a long-term goal.
That can come from a town-him, yes. (Which is frankly one of the reasons why it's even possible for him to be town.) But I strongly believe that the way he'd go about it if he were town would be different. That if he were town, his roots, his presence, would be less precise. He's a calculator as either alignment, sure enough, but as town he is still the UNINFORMED, and yet in this game his actions speak of not being uninformed; there's no hint of disarray, of chaos, of divergence, of disorder, and those are signs that even the most precision-based town players would have on D1.
Who he is going after is something that is an artificial process. Instead of feeling like his goal is to find scum, when reading his posts I feel like his goal is to lynch others while not being lynched.
I see the plan in his posts, and I see a scumteam led by him written all over Momrangal and acryon's posts as well. Their interactions have been forced for the sake of interactions, and altogether they have kept each other at the distance where they can do whatever they need--they're distant enough where they can choose to bus, but close enough where they can choose to scumbloc, depending on the need, and this is an interaction that feels entirely calculated.
Frankly the thing which gives me the most doubt about the scumteam is honestly that I wouldn't expect to be competent enough to have nailed it in the first five, six pages. Legit reverse-self-burden-of-proficiency is the closest I can think of for a reason for them to be town.
The "too scummy to be scum" fallacy". Go it 
I think you are correct on that.
