I didn't think these things were scummy at all! >_> Well, also, I wanted to give you space while you do your thing but time is short and this game started at a shit time for me so I want to get down to business: if/when you get what you want from Ceph, want to talk about him and your read on him?

I think we're past the point of getting any additional dialog about your opening against Pie to talk about that.
Bit of A but more of B. In the haze of the early part of this game, when I first read the post, I did have the immediate impression that pie's opening felt awkward and that her reads felt too easy but then I remembered Forest Fire and started thinking "hmm, what if I press her on this? Maybe that will help me get the early read I need and I can always back out before any argument escalates and threatens to drown out the thread." Veering a bit off into theory for a moment, I usually thrive on conflict in the early game (though not on the level where it gets toxic) by forcing people to engage me as it forces people to take a stand on what's going on and that's how you get your reads. I don't think I got as much from it beyond pie but even just one read helps.

I find Pie's attitude to look town, but there is a bit of a disconnect in this response from the content of the previous posts.
Frankly, Im not seeing anything particularly town to come from Pie by that point. The belief that she'd play differently as scum is fine but the attempt to explain that thought there are also a bit disconnected.
I don't know. More null on Pie than anything I guess.
She reacted pretty similarly in
this game. I don't remember if you give a shit about stuff like this but it might be worth a once over.
