In yoloville, CES made a similar type of "mislynch" slip and I should have paid more attention to it when Vi pointed it out.
Well CES was referring to the
Scumdon invitational, where he was scum, and Shanba was the Day 1 mislynch. So that is the game where CES knew that Shanba was town.
Also you should ask Patrick about how often scumslips are valid.

I don't remember seeing anyone react to that at all and it kinda surprised me that he's on people's suspect list while doing something that I thought would be familiar or that would spark a response. I'm not sure what to make of that. Maybe I'm misremembering how many times he said it.
Woops, I had forgotten this. I don't actually remember what Nexus' favourite role is, although now I'm thinking about it I have a guess. It did make me think he was town on D1 though, that is true. People who give very early reactions to their role I generally think are town because I do that more often as town myself (as scum I often haven't decided what I want to fakeclaim at that point).
That said, right now everyone has something that makes me think they might be town:
* Nexus was pretty active on D1 and there is the role thing
* CDB's reaction to being the first wagon seemed town
* Elmo has made some good comments
* Primate/Tammy have also made some good comments
* Porochaz I think is town mainly for the claim
* Shanba seems more engaged than I would expect him to be as scum, and has made some good comments.
Hmm so for a lot of people it comes down to 'they've said some things that seem like legitimate scumhunting to me'. I'm probably being too generous with my definition here, although I maintain that this game is harder than the games I read most of in Team Mafia, where I felt several scum were fairly obvious in their lack of scumhunting. I will try and do a proper re-read soon though, because that should help, and evidently I've already forgotten stuff.
I'm switching to Shanba now though, because looking back just briefly, although he's posted more than Primate/Elmo, I think he's actually been less insightful, and the post I'd marked him as town for (
104) doesn't look that amazing in retrospect.
Plus I think Shanba-scum would also be fairly likely to make the hito-kill.
VOTE: Shanba
Tammy - I did mention the CDB-tracked-nowhere when CES and I were talking about the possibility of a Nexus-CDB scumteam yesterday, he didn't seem bothered by it. At the time I thought that it would be be fine as it just means the other scum made the kill. But now I think about it, in a 2:7 game, would the scum be likely to have two power roles? Although it is possible they don't, or that one of their powers is a passive and/or negative utility (e.g. reflexive doctor).
