Alright yall. I didnt read the thread other than the last couple pages of D2 and Nexus' posts. You're never going to convince me to thoroughly read 86 pages. Where should I start reading, and what do I need to know?

the game really isn't that long
any version of events you get will be inherently biased and there's some stuff that is really best if you don't have an opinion about it already
so...if you could just read the game you replaced in to and give us your thoughts on the events that have transpired i think that'd be best for everyone
Edos if you want to hear my particular biased view of things I'm all mouths.
Gin is town for many, many reasons. I understand scumreading wheme but I am pretty sure it's wrong and am happy to justify/look into him more but I really don't think he's scum.
I think my pieg townread slowly deteriorated yesterday to some extent. I still think the slot is town. But it wouldn't really surprise me that much if i'm wrong here. I need to look back and see if I'm just reading a playstyle essentially. Hopefully edos will be like a gin replacement rather than a momo replacement.
Desperado wins the award right now for most likely person to come up as unexpected scum? I think he's been acting very town and since my spat with him early d1 i feel like he's been trying to solve the game and looking at things in a very progressive way. I haven't seen any specific thing from him that I can remember jumping out at me as "that's not scum." I doubt he's scum. No one else seems to have any suspicion towards him or me so the firebringer kill is a little weird? I mean fmpov it kind of sucks because he was my other really strong townread but he did have a fair amount of pressure on him. It's conceivably possible that edos mentioning the firebringer claim means that he saw the claim as scum and thought it was serious. I don't think he'd have said as much in thread but it's possible if edos thought that other people also took the claim seriously? This is a tangent though. Desperado is probably town.
Persivul is still town for pointing out the pine thing. His play yesterday feels generally logical but logical isn't a tell. There was the outing the fake hammer thing but he brings up a good point that it's pointless in this specific situation. His dialogue about wheme is another good example of him being logical in a way that i have a hard time really looking into. But I really, really think the pointing out the mod's post in the setup thread and the way that he played it subsequently with respect to pine is town. I don't see scum-persivul going out of his way to point out something that more or less confirmed pine was lying when he didn't have any way of knowing how people would respond. I don't see him pushing it in the way he did either. I think he'd either try to get more out of it or just not do it at all. It just doesn't make sense as a s->s interaction.
Aj is probably not scum with nos because i don't think he's bussing but is a decent candidate if i'm wrong about nos. I still have residual feelings about the slot because of alz but i'm not nearly as confident about those tells as I am about nos.
Nos is still scum and I think I've elaborated on this enough.
So what this all boils down to is that I'm wrong about something. I'm probably wrong about either edos/pieg, desperado, or persivul. And if I had to take a guess at this moment I'd say edos, but very weakly. I guess I have to view the game as {nos/aj} + {edos/desp/pers(/wheme?)} but i really don't feel great about abandoning any of those townreads.
I need someone to convince me i'm wrong about something. It's also of course conceivable that i'm wrong about {nos/aj} containing a scum. If nos is town then aj is the next most likely person to be scum but i really, really think nos is scum.
But I don't think I'll really be able to think that effectively further without a nos flip.
