This is a reference to Xtoxm, which we know flipped cop. You express suspicions of him later, but you left your vote on me, which reeks of distancing from a mislynch as you never voted him.
Another one:

It's Day 1 and you're already this certain about scum? This is tunnel vision, and you were voting for neither player when you made that statement. In fact, other than your random vote on ortolan, I'm the only person you've voted all day.
Let's get down to business here, pops: I am the seer, I investigated you for the above posts, and you came up werewolf. Therefore,

Wow, wow wow. Wow. This a really gutsy move from SC and whoever the heck his scumpartner is. I'm not werewolf, which means StrangerCoug is not seer, which means one of you guys, though not me, is seer. There's going to be a counterclaim and SC is going to fight it, but hopefully you guys have some sense and he loses.
Do you guys really buy this? His claim itself seems so insincere. "Here is two things that look suspicious. Oh and by the way I investigated you."
He doesn't even give reasons he stopped thinking KK was suspicious, it's as if whatever KK did that was suspicious dried up and blew away.
Everyone, please read D1. SC reeks, all day, of scumminess. This is clearly a lunge the scum are making for instant victory.
You quote me as saying "Xtoxm and KK both look pretty bad." I did say that, but it was a typo. I meant to say "Xtoxm and SC both look pretty bad." If you did any more than a scumish superficial reading of the thread, you would have figured out it was a typo, since I hadn't said anything about KK being suspicious at all before or after, and the post just before i put you and Xtoxm as my most suspicious suspects:

Although SC has said it's very unlikely to catch both scum on day 1, I'm inclined to think Xtoxm and SC are a scum pair. At the time Xtoxm made "mandatory prod post", most people were putting pressure on SC. He could read the thread and say what he thinks on SC very quickly, but he didn't. I think he was trying to avoid commentation on SC, so he neither has to bus his teammate to the gallows nor say he doesn't have suspicions about SC, which we would look back upon harshly if SC flipped scum.
In support of this theory, look how SC defended Xtoxm in post 66. He asks if KK has checked Xtoxm's post history, whichout even bothering to click twice and do some himself. He even went at length. He looks like he's more interesteed in defending Xtoxm than actually ascertaining whether Xtoxm needs defending.
The fact he ceded the point is irrelevant (buddy nor not), he was faced with facts by KK that required a fold either way.
I was wrong about one of you two, but apparently I was right about one of you.

A note to the seer, please claim. If we mislynch now we lose, that's why StrangerCoug is going out on a limb and trying to pull this crap. We're smarter than that. Aren't we? Please say we are....
"Let us say that you are right and there are two worlds. How much, then, is this 'other world' worth to you? What do you have there that you do not have here? Money? Power? Something worth causing the prince so much pain for?'"
"Well, I..."
"What? Nothing? You would make the prince suffer over... nothing?"
