@Kagami I talked with Oka and he told me he didn't really agree with my take at this point so I'll just state it and then write up my read list
I feel like Dunnstral actually makes more sense as scum in the Dunn + Bitmap pairing. My logic is as follows.
Alisae is getting widely townread and the general consensus is e should pair with Dunnstral. Meanwhile Bitmap and Dunnstral have interactions that would make sense for leading up to a pairing but if that doesn't happen Bitmap is kinda up shit creek. So Dunn takes a chance that Bitmap will accept as a way to throw Alisae out of the game early as e wasn't feeling any of the other possible partners at that point. Now this doesn't guarantee Bitmap is town but it makes more sense than Dunn town and Bitmap scum to me because of how the pairing felt. Had it been the other way I'd expect to have things happen in a way to where I'm like "that was sketchy from Bitmap" but it's a deep-seated concern about the fact that pairing happened at all.
And I mentioned Oka isn't on board now but when we first talked about it he kinda agreed on some points so I feel good about it since we both saw those things initially

@gamma why would dunn do that? is he so afraid of alisae that he'd decrease his own survivability just to get rid of em?

i don't think scum!dunny pairs with bitmap over alisae. Is that a good point towards town!dunny?
@gamma did u read my point about how dun plays scum and how he isn't playing like that?

scum!dunn would pair with me or Ali, both more widely townread players than Bitmap who is a vanity townread. For scums a widely townread player is even more useful dancing with you than that player is dead. If there's scum in the dunn/bitmap pairing it's because the reasons bitmap has been getting widely scumread are right

1) Yes I think is that afraid of Alisae
2) part of my logic is that he knew the groundwork was there with Bitmap so neither of them should look particularly out-of-place making that pairing.

technically it's possible that a scum!dunn picked bitmap to maintain the status quo of general reads instead of having bitmap flip town and forcing a bunch of people to rethink their reads

I personally agree with your analysis of Dunn's scum play but don't see how this isn't it

idk that's actually what town!dunn should do too. But it's general survivalism tell stuff both townies and scums should be trying to survive but it's more closely linked to wincon for scums.
if Ali has a history of being hard to pocket then that makes your theory work I guess

This was what Oka proposed that really made me confident in this btw
