Pink Ball and Squirtle seem like typical townie slots but idk if i fully trust Pink Ball.
Squirtle's Fire read is totally fire though. They can be town for sure.

I think my instinct about their exchange is very different from urs
Squirtle's read on you seems legit, not coming from scum pushing town or scum pushing a partner
Klick's defense on you seems legit, not coming from scum trying to whiteknight really early game or scum protecting a partner.

Scum!Squirtle doesn't need to do either of those things this early as scum.
Scum!Klick doesn't need to do either of those things this early as scum.

Not saying that they wouldn't but they don't have to, so I'm assuming they aren't.
mehhhh

I wifomily disagree with the middle section logic in that they both look traditionally good from being the first to say a bunch of serious stuff, so there is a reason to do this

but whatever

1 and 2 are possible but 3 is way more likely.

So I'm gunna need a really compelling answer to my "why" question.
They could have easily not discussed it. Towns give scum PTs too much credit. I've lost count of how many times I've assumed scum did XYZ on purpose only to learn postgame they were hardly talking at all.

If scum only ever did things they "have to" do, their win rate would be much lower.

add that as a fourth possibility if you want, I still think its way less likely than firebringer just being town tho.

What I meant is that scum!Squirtle is never getting town!sheep limmed with that half assed push, and they aren't looking townie while doing that either
And Klick is defending a player that I wouldn't take too much effort to defend in the first place (no offense sheep but this playerlist has a lot of other players that I would consider as a priority to get townread from)

When I say that they don't have to, is that it shouldn't be prioritized because they wouldn't get anything out of it as scum.
So the most logical conclusion is that town!Squirtle legitimately thought that sheep's entrance was scummy, and town!Klick couldn't hold the urge of get their nose in

I think it's a fair criticism.
You're coming into the game very hard on a slot that merely posted they don't have time to read the 5 pages. If this is how you typically play regardless of alignment then i won't take too much issue. But still i find it independently to be more likely coming from scum that wants to take a grand standing early but does it by pushing an lurker slot.

Chandra seems more convinced than they should be when comparing it to the actual factual evidence at hand. (Or lack of)
And this discrepancy is what i find to be unnatural and scummy.
