The Odds - you've been brainslugged

The Aesthet is a fair spaceship. It travels at a number of light years per hour that might be somewhat practical in the real world under real astronomy. It carries scientists and hitchhikers and seekers of eternal youth and everyone in between.

And its supercomputer! FreezeTags is fast and efficient and knowledgeable and it has the best solitaire version ever. It once calculated π/0 and successfully convinced everyone that it just didn't
feel
like sharing it. Then it upgraded the Aesthet's cake recipe so everyone was still happy. FreezeTags is really, really good at what it does.

So, um, it's kind of a pity that you're not on the Aesthet, and don't have any access to FreezeTags. The evil brain slugs captured those when you stopped for fuel at Planet Brain Slug. The ten of you have barely managed to escape, and your escape pod's computer is lazy and didn't expect to be needed at all. It has not been keeping its information up to date.

And that information would be useful, 'cause you know the brain slugs have infected two of you as well, and some people have better resistance than others. Resistance isn't a static trait, to be placed in a database once and allowed to gather dust. It has something to do with diet and showering frequency.

Fine, stop complaining, we'll see what we can do.

The Odds has 10 players, 2 of whom are scum. Each individual has a percentage chance of being scum, ranging from 10% to 30%. These percentages will be posted publically (and were probably rigged for my amusement, though the roles themselves were applied randomly). There is also one doctor, assigned after the scum have been generated but otherwise independently of percentage.

Days should last 1 hour, tops.
Do bold your votes and follow other standard rules.
Have fun whilst trying to win.
Thank you.

Question to mod: From these percentages, by what process exactly do you go about determining the scums?

Instead of generating two numbers between 1 and 10, I generate two numbers between 1 and 40, rerolling if someone is scum twice. (I then generate the doctor between 1 and 8.)

Also, yes, IH, the percentages were indeed rigged.

Using that method, each player has slightly less than the given percentage of being scum. Conspiracy ftw.
