Talk about the pot calling the kettle black. If anyone started lurking day 2, it was you Freddeh.
I think making the assumption that all three of the scum are within the pool of me, lilan, confused, and MoD is absurd. I think it's far more likely that somewhere between 0 and 2 scum are within that pool of players.

Further to my above statement I shall provide my reads up to this point;
Spoiler'd for exceptional length and girth
Ambar Solidly town. The back and forth dealing with his lynch and Scarlet's ability has been done to death at this point so I won't bring it up again. Suffice to say I fall on the 'Martyr protecting town' side of that argument. While I understand what Numbers meant when he made his argument I personally feel that this outcome is more likely. Aside from the Scarlet reasoning he has been one of the most active and contributing members of the group during these last days (day 2 panicking not with standing). I will be amazed if he is revealed to be mafia.
Freddeh As outlined above I have no reason to suspect them of being mafia though I can't provide much context to that statement as I have had more dealings with them then anyone else had. I tentatively lean town.
PP I still have no idea what to think about them. Contribution during the first days were sadly lacking though once I was able to engage them most of what they said enough even if we didn't exactly see eye to eye - or indeed at all. I have no strong lean though at this point I find lynching them to be too risky a venture to undertake.
Rubik I'm not entirely sure what to make of Rubik. Made a relatively small number of posts all of which seem to have gone under the radar for me. His day one posts are a little erratic and some of his arguments odd but nothing that jumped out at me a scum. He then suffered the same 'Day 2 Lurking' as most of the others players though he did come back to ensure he was voting for each of the wagons that ended up 'winning'. For now a neutral vote but I'm going to go back and re-read everything they've said in context with my thoughts at the time. I dislike how little an impact you've made on me.
MoD My current strongest candidate for Scum. Almost everything they have done in this game has rubbed me the wrong way. Posts are incredibly short, lacking any real content. The few times he says more then a few words are generally reactionary and still providing little more then blanket statements. Were it not for sheer volume I would simply assume he is lurking; as it is he appears, to me, to be attempting to look active without actually contributing anything. I appreciate this may simply be how you play and if that is the case I am sorry but you play style just rings scummy to me.
Confused I am torn. Contribution was considerably higher at the beginning, with signs of scum hunting and attempts to engage and continue conversation. Back on day 1 I would be hard pressed to find a reason to look at them with suspicion. Then people started dying and contributions slowed to a crawl before ceasing entirely after their role was revealed by HW. I currently have a mafia lean on them. While it is possible they simply lost interest in the game the timing is, for me, simply far too suspect; they stepped out at the perfect time to simply watch the game come to it's natural conclusion. Added with my personal theory that one neighbor is scum and Confused is my most likely candidate in that regard.
Lilan Lilan appears to me much like Confused does - only to a greater degree. While Confused at least contributed during day in what I consider to be constructive manners Lilan made little effort on that part. While it's probably crude to restate arguments I made two days ago almost nothing about my opinion of them has changed. They started an early wagon, watched it gain speed, came back to try and distance themselves from it and then proceeded to disappear, making an appearance only every few days (almost certainly in response to Razor's prods) to throw out one-line posts before disappearing again - the last one of which was throwing a vote of a wagon they admit they didn't think was scummy.
To summarize my current mafia candidates are MoD, Lilan and Confused in that order.

And if I wasn't certain before, this "No, you" post solidifies it.
I'm not sure how claiming is going to help, since Razor said that the mafia was given valid fake claims, but, I also do not see how it can hurt, since we are in LyLo.

On Rubik - I got a strong scum-hunting vibe from him earlier. I've not been able to do a full re-read (it's on my list) but hopefully, I'll have some thoughts later today.
