Pie is town, mostly confident enough to bet the game on it.
He's preemptively taking credit for a lynch in a manner that is extremely uninformed of my alignment. Scum doesn't say that *his* information guarantees I'm scum, scum doesn't say that *he* found a scumslip. If you go through past games, scum disproportionately are players who hop on bandwagons or casually egg on town-vs-town violence, not the ones who initiate pushes.
Austin, his basis for saying that you are scum is that his information demonstrates that scum will have roles in the two Categories to which town does not have access, and that your post suggested that they do as well despite having come before he revealed his info. I disagree with his take-away, as do you. I'll point out, though, that if you flip town, that doesn't disprove his information in any way. He can write that off as either a misinterpretation of what you posted or you being scummy without cause. His information could still be correct.
As for whether scum would do what he's doing, I'll point out that this is far from a first for Pie. He is often aggressive whether he's scum or town, and yes, that includes leading lynches on town in both roles. It's riskier, but Pie's gotten by on risky plays before.
I'm not saying any of this makes him scummy, and I understand why people are leaning town on him behaviorally, I just don't understand why anyone is townreading his role (which, again, is unprovable without either flipping scum or his own flip).
