# Effort
Pie uses different language when town vs scum. He also seems less invested in the game as scum.

Pie tags everyone he can and tries to get some pressure going. Already likely too much effort to really qualify him as scum.
don't confuse him arguing with RM last game as effort either it takes very little effort to point out that RM is a jack ass. It's actually a bit fun to do.
He just doesn't try as hard as scum.
# Breaking up reads/Fluff
Pie wants to appear active as scum and struggles to make up bullshit reasons for his reads so he generates activity by breaking up reads. Here is how he broke up reads last game and it is completely missing from this game.
Scum game accuses somebody of WIFOM to break up a read. Breaking up a read simulates effort to find scum and is one of the lesser known scum behaviors. He also spends a lot of time with similar behavior criticizing his RM's vote on 7k and then criticizing 7k for not responding to RVS . Stuff that really isn't scum hunting but kinda attempts to look like it.
# Overly Kind
Pie is uncomfortable with confrontation but this slips when he is passionate about something such as catching scum. Notice he is more antagonistic towards those who disagree with his reads this game, and in the last game he was being overly friendly.
as Scum
Kindly points out an odd behavior instead of attacking for it
A few lines later friendly welcomes Austin instead of a neutral welcome
Later on the same page makes a polite request and fully spells out the word please. Notice his politeness and grammar both improve as scum.
Calls GP a bestie but doesn't buddy him in current game
Another polite request from somebody who is typically a dick
# Pie wants to be caught
The whole time as scum pie is hinting that he is scum and knows for a fact RM is scum. Notice that in current game he scum read 7k but did not claim to know for a fact he was scum or hint at other inside knowledge.
There are many examples of confessions of being scum the last game especially in DP2 but here is one in DP1 that is funny. https://www.debateart.com/forum/topics/10597-wylted-mafia-dp1?page=3&post_number=82
A lot of the stuff I can not put into words that I am picking up on but he is definitely town.
