Okay looking at Jimmm..
He's pretty gone throughout most of Day 1. He starts off initially questioning Yuma's claim, there is a little back and forth there, and then he's gone. Comes back throughout the beginning of the Ash/Andrew thing with a few comments.. I don't really find much in those, but I do get the impression that he's trying to sort stuff out. But it doesn't feel like he's really saying or contributing a lot throughout.
He's the gone for much of the time leading up to the deadline until about two hours before deadline (Reply 751, 06:05:22 pm). Mentions that he'll probably vote Andrew, and will reread Sudgy. Comes back 30 minutes before deadline and says he didn't find anything on Sudgy and votes Andrew (Reply
807). He then says he'll vote for Sudgy to get a lynch if there isn't enough for Andrew (
811). Suggests Yuma dayvig Andrew (
825) to prove Yuma's claim. A few posts later he seems to agree that dayvigging Sudgy would be just as good.
Andrew claims, Jimm questions it, some back and forth.. consensus moves more towards Sudgy, some more back and forth, Jimm hammers with about 30 seconds to spare (
876).
Day 2 Jimm seems a lot like beginning of Day 1 Jimm. Not super present but not entirely absent.
Okay so two things stand out to me. I can see a narrative that makes sense for scum!Jimm:
First, Jimm is super active right before the lynch, and puts (or is just put in) a position where he essentially decides who the lynch candidate is. This is somewhat convenient, as if one of the lynch candidates were scum, he could decide the other one. This seems risky for scum, but he has a pretty good cover story that he thinks a lynch is better than a no-lynch, which many people do agree on, and he'd probably maintain the same opinion whether he was town or scum. So he has a lot of control over the lynching situation with a pre-established theory reason on why to hammer. Moreover, he didn't really do any of the work to get the lynches going, only swooped in at the end. A very similar thing happened in the other game I played, by scum.
Second, Jimm seems pretty concerned with peoples roles. Okay, we all are, but he chimed in on Yuma early, suggested some shooting from Yuma to verify Yuma's role, started questioning Andrewis' claim (
847, not sure if I linked it before). I don't think he responded to Xerxes' claim, though. Well, this one might be a wash. I could see Jimm trying to dig a little deeper into roles to try to get some clues on who to target with night actions and who needs to be killed. One the other hand, scum!Jimm would know if these claims come from town, and he might believe that town won't want to lie about their roles. (I would like to believe that.)
Okay, I'm not sure there's anything in the second point. The first point I do find suspicious.
I don't see a smoking gun here, but I can understand why people were voting for him. I'd like to do something similar for the other people that seem to be "background" in this game, but I probably have to do some actual work today.
