He's a hard neutral for me right now. I looked at some of his past games including the ones he mentioned
here and determined that he was pretty accurately describing his own meta as 'very comfortable regardless of his alignment'. One of my primary issues with his early game play was I felt like he was behaving obtusely/erratically to try to make us think he looked comfortable. So seeing the meta kind of 'nullified' that issue I had. I'm also less bothered about his exchange with skitter than I was 80 pages ago.
Fast forward to the past few days, and I am struggling to understand his mindset either way. It seems like he's acting impulsively/carelessly on a number of minor 'softs'/'hints' like your town power role 'softs'. It's hard for me to believe Bingle-town believing in those things but also hard to envision Bingle-scum making a scene about those things.
And we already started talking about his 1v1 with skitter last night. We seem to all agree that this is a weird thing for him to do as scum. You/skitter read this as 'bravado' - correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm taking that to mean you read it as Bingle-scum taking this outlandish approach just for the sake of confusing us. I guess that's not a strategy that I've seen much of in my experience.
He's not my preferred lynch but I don't have enough confidence in this game to stick my neck out for him right now.
