I didn't get a link initially, and I just finished moving back in, so here are my initial messages.
4burner - That (scum-driven) wagon on you should not have gone through, and a site meta that would encourage otherwise is a bad one. Thanks for playing, and I'd like to see you in another game.
Skullduggery - I'd like to apologize for how I addressed you before. I would still like to talk about your playstyle if you're willing to hold the discussion; if not, not.

I've already said this, but if you have to apologize for lynching someone, you shouldn't be lynching them. It's like there's an alternative to pounding every wagon in or something.
The Skullduggery kill was basically the scum saying that they were in a good position. They weren't so much, but even so.

I decline and invite a counteroffer for you to consume excrement and fall ill as a result. Your initial suspicion (not the "slip") on 4burner was good, your hop off was watery but good, and your Town reads were pretty good, but the rest of your play was thoroughly abysmal. Your scumread on me was absolute trash, your insistence on it to the exclusion of all other scum reads more so, and your unwillingness to work with me led to me scumreading you which in turn led to the tragedy that was Day 4.

So here's my attempt to explain some things. I didn't know if I was Sane or Insane. This is still more or less as good as a regular Cop after Night 2, which very fortunately came early.
My results were
N1 - hiplop is Mafia
N2 - No Result (but I tried to investigate notscience, which was a total waste because that's what Neighborhoods are for but things were going to go south if I didn't have a definite answer about him)
While I was wondering how I should try to softclaim if I had two results D3, I didn't have enough to confirm my sanity so I didn't bother... and I didn't realize that my statement about my history at reading Neighbors could be read any way but at face value. (It's true, though now I have to reword it to "100% rate of finding scum".)
I also didn't bother telling reinoe about it, partly because leftover suspicion and partly because frankly I didn't expect reinoe to bring it up (he didn't try to correct people about the Alices not being in a Neighborhood in spite of me pointing that out in the Neighborhood, for instance). In the end I don't think it made a huge difference after my first post D3; an explanation I supplied reinoe with would have been coming from too convenient a person.
So, yes, I had a significant hand in the confusion D4. I'm not sure how much of it was set up and how much of it was the Town's eagerness to implode, though; if there were Daytalk I would suspect much more of the former...
There are a few outstanding points of interest, one of which is outside the knowledge of the Town.
1) Why has no one asked whether Aronis's role conflicts with mine? The rules explicitly say there is no role duplication. Aronis could be confscum or he could not be confscum, but the point is that no one asked. (Incidentally, the Naive claim - which
wasn't made by Aronis
- was very strangely timed.)
2) For reasons that made more sense yesterday until I remember what they were, I strongly believe that scum targeted me with an info role (Role Cop or Tracker) Night 1 and used that info to block me Night 2 and kill me Night 3. Prior to Day 3 I was lynchbait, yet somehow between Night 1 and Night 2 I became a Block choice. In addition, Day 3 and the general assumption that I was working with inside information makes more sense if the scum can anticipate a Cop flip.
The disappointing part is that Prof. Fridays openly admitted using a Role Cop on my N1. Natirasha claiming he forgot to action N2 (but openly admitting to working in tandem with Prof. Fridays) is suspect as well. And Prof. Fridays swooped to Aronis' rescue w.r.t. the Cop claim...
I suppose those are my picks for scum, then. Just based on the awful 4burner wagon, we could have cut all three of them out but everyone decided to throw that out and try to win with setup speculation instead. It's certainly an interesting meltdown to watch, anyway, but if the Town wins this it will basically be because of dice-throwing, and I think Fridays and Natirasha are too smart to be caught that way.
Everything you say and do matters. People will respond in ways you may never see. May those responses be what you intend.
