Does not follow. If you believe that it's possible for someone to simply look at the thread to see Elements pointing it out as a possible scumslip and just go "interesting, could be something to that" then comment briefly and go back to what they were doing without spending an excessive amount of time analyzing every possibility, you have to believe it possible for both of us. Since I know that to be the case for me, I can readily believe it could be the case for Weuler as well.
The read was done with an assumption that you and Weuler had spent time analyzing what the implications of a slip would be, the element of human fallibility I took into account was making a mistake in the logical reasoning of that analysis.
To make a metaphor, say you had two programmers tasked with solving the same problem or two drivers tasked with driving a specific long route while obeying all traffic laws. Allowing for human fallibility, you'd expect the two programmers to hand in programs with different bugs and the two drivers to have broken different laws in different places. It's because I thought that you and Weuler made the same mistake that I considered it to be significant in that read.

I really don't like these posts; as StD said, what's the rush? Even if you think Weuler has a 100% probability of being scum there's still plenty of time before the day ends to go look for the second scum and still plenty of posts to go through and ask questions about

He's in four other games right now, I think him not posting that much here due to being overloaded is a much more compelling explanation than alternative explanations that would be AI

Also as a preemptive reminder: discussion of ongoing games is not allowed and if you're not sure if something constitutes breaking this rule then PM a listmod

(the roles are probably listed by the mod in the PT even without sharing with each other, from what I can see of previous mafia PTs from newbie games)

Is there a specific reason you double checked the format of a mafia PT from previous games? The exact mechanics of how mafia know their partner and roles don't seem to be that important given that the end result is the same and you don't strike me as the type of person to be this diligent about this type of stuff.
Because your comment made me curious as it hadn't even occurred to me that scum possibly wouldn't know their partner's role without sharing. Oddly, some of the non newbie threads did not give any info about roles at the start and they didn't share with each other either, though they could've gotten the info in their role PM. And it wouldn't have the same ramifications on the game as a newbie game with the set chart used here. (Ironically I did recently read an old game of mine where we apparently didn't bother to tell our teammates our cool roles, though we only got to talk at night in PMs back then)
And I totally am the kind of person who's diligent about this stuff.
Elements and Weuler, you two played with Aureal in Newbie 2108. Do you think this is a scumslip?

I actually think characterizing it as the only thing I've done is misrepping me. It's also a little disingenuous since I've only been playing like a day.
I tr human and sr weuler, arko, and you (elements) and have explained why for the sr
I like weuler and arko for scum at this point. Weuler made jokes all throught the first few pages of the newbie game that was brought up. It's weird theyre not funny here it was something I noticed
Arko just has that big scum energy

I have seen/been scum before come into the thread a little bombastic and loud. His posts here seem kind of all over the place. It's not really a great tell but it has worked for me sometimes.
It's such a basic read though, made ~15 minutes after voting yourself (Which is when I'm presuming you came online and started reading) that there's nothing I can really say about it. Especially since after that read you spend most of the rest of your posts since then trying to get a read on Elements
