I have a reason to clear everyone else.
Would you mind sharing those?
No problem! I'll also share why I think I can't be scum with Space.
I wondered about the crumb thing, too. It's true that whether she did or not doesn't help catch scum, but it's natural to be curious.
What does seem strange to me is Space's defense of her comment. Why go on about the relative strengths of f.ds players in English? Didds wouldn't have known how skilled scum were at reading in English. If we found a breadcrumb, would there be any inferences to make based on knowing who has a different first language?
Keeping my suspicions to myself is just making me too quiet, so I'll share. And likely regret it. But I completely agree with MiX's observations about Robz. These were the thoughts I wasn't mentioning. Why did you back down so quickly, MiX?
Vote: Robz
I will also mention a different possibility other than Robz being scum, which is that he is still riding high after his successful scumreading in the last game.
Mentioning both partners in a negative light when they're already fighting each other in the thread is a bit questionable, and if this were the team they were doing great. I don't see EFHW being scum because of this.

I'm really puzzled how you three (EFHW, MiX, Isis) think about breadcrumbs that you're all three agreeing that this is irrelevant. It might not offer anything more than super-weak evidence against some certain configurations of scum-team, but I see a definite distinction between that and "irrelevant". The way I see it, a breadcrumb is something you post early in the game so that when claims come out later, you can point to it and say something along the lines on "see, I'm not just making it up and claiming the most convenient role: I hid this secret message at the start".
For that to work, you need to come up with something that's subtle enough not to be noticed by scum, but clear enough that they can't really argue against it once you've pointed it out. That's a language skill. If there was a breadcrumb, then for scum to spot it, especially since I looked in retrospect and still couldn't see something, I suggest that at least one member of the scumteam is clever enough or familiar enough with Didds's language patterns that they sussed it out.
So.. how is that different from what you three mean?
Mentioning EFHW, me and Isis in the same light suggests neither of us are scum.
If you are good at crumbing there should be a 0% chance of scum figuring out your crumb. Lots of people are just lazy though. Airtight crumbs are trivial.
It sounds like MiX is saying Didds wouldn't crumb at all.
It still seems pretty silly and peripheral but maybe you actually have taken interest in such a futile thing. Do you wanna help me kill MiX? The mod didn't give me a dayvig this time.
Side note: if people think Isis didn't have a scum result on me, this is proof that she had. Post about crumbing, forces themselves to place my name there.
Yeah.
Vote: Galzria
Given how quickly the Galzria wagon grew, I'd say he's not scum.
Bad math feels like it should be scummy. Makes me want to vote for chairs.
But I don't think it is actually scummy. Since it's easy to be shown wrong, not actually lead anywhere.
On another note, sorry I haven't been around much the past few days, though I have not lurked like others for the entirety of the game. A tree fell on my car, so been dealing with that / generally unhappy about it. Good news is it looks like it is covered; bad news will take 2.5 weeks (!)
Vote: Dylan
Have a work meeting now, so will add more after, but wanted to get it out there, see what others think.
Really sorry about your car!
Why Dylan, though?
Scum!Dylan, anyone?
Obviously I prefer Chairs to Galz.
What even is the case on Dylan?
How dare you vote Space's partner!
Both of these point to scola being town, why would both scum have the same reaction otherwise?
Uh, scola is incredibly townie for unvoting there. Unless chairs and scola are both scum and planned the X-1 and the claim, which does not seem likely.
This seems genuine. Given how right Robz was with his reads, I don't think this is when he would defend his partner.
Uh, scola is incredibly townie for unvoting there. Unless chairs and scola are both scum and planned the X-1 and the claim, which does not seem likely.
What? Of course scola unvotes as any alignment.
Unvote, idk anymore.
Why would scum bother unvoting there?
What does that even mean? Scola unvotes because town!scola unvotes. I don't understand what your question is.
I can say that I would've said all this in the scum QT, but a better argument is probably that I applied random amounts of pressure on Robz for no reason if we're scumbuddies.
Yeah ok so I was just wrong for this entire game and I completely destroyed D1 and D2, causing a bunch of people to claim and a lot of misexiles while scum have gotten zero scrutiny.
There's 3 scum in (scola, space, galz, swan, robz, efhw, dylan, faust). Let's get hunting.
I won't be around for LyLo.
Willing to exile myself.
Join the Galz wagon!
Galz is town.
Uh, scola is incredibly townie for unvoting there. Unless chairs and scola are both scum and planned the X-1 and the claim, which does not seem likely.

This. What advantage does scum!scola ever get from NOT unvoting? Hope Town comes in and accidentally hammers? Please.
Unvote

Placeholder: Vote: Robz while I think things through.
He's more evidence Galz is town if you weren't convinced already.
Vote: Robz
Either faust connected the dots and bussed really early, or he's town. Given scum's position today relative to yesterday, I'd say it's the former.
Catching up now. Chairs claiming a PR sounds about right because either he's scum wanting a way out, or he's a PR who's been playing it scummily. That's not helping though... it doesn't even explain MiX's weird behaviour.
This is not what you say about a partner when your primary target for misexile claimed a PR. And if I'm scum, they claimed an innocent result on someone scum was pushing.
Did you color Isis?
Nope.. what did I miss??
Chairs' cop result on Isis came green.
Why would I say this publicly? Now I realize that it's questionable that Space missed who chairs copped, but as scum I would've seen that this didn't help Space live long.
Vote: MiX
I think on balance believing Chairs for now is the smart thing to do here, so I won't leave my vote sitting there.
PPE 3
Checks out of the day with a vote on me. If it's bussing, what is scum doing? Pushing Swowl? If it goes south, why not having an alternative ready?
Vote: Robz
Galz is at this point obv!scum and it's pretty frustrating we can't make this happen. He shows up periodically to push bad wagons and drive us off track, and then goes back to lurking.
I still don't really think MiX is scum. Who was the person saying the joth-chairs-MiX trio was a massive distraction and we should look elsewhere? Because that would be a pretty townie person. Oh that's right, it was me, but as usual NoBoDy LiStEnEd. (I also correctly called Isis as town when a lot of people were saying it was scummy to talk about hearthstone or something equally idiotic.)
Sort of looks like it's swowl or MiX, so Vote: Swowl but I really have no idea about him anymore.
Swowl's town or scum is playing the longest con of their lives. So, Swowl's town.
This is my "why is no one other than Dylan scum" wall. The "why is Dylan scum" wall will be here shortly, which is to say in about 1 IRL day.
