Just read over the second Hu Tao + Aureal hood and I feel like Aureal is the scum here.
In Andante’s thread she mentioned trying to make you think she SRed me but actually scumreading you, Hu Tao. Makes me think she’s trying to play both sides. Not enthused by her saying she thought me/HPE were scum in a way that initially looks like it implies thinking only one of us is scum in your hood.
I also think the NK order feels more like it comes from Aureal here.

Idk, I feel like I’ve been in a compromised position for most of the game, some of that is my fault, mainly for what I was doing during D4, but part of that comes from Hu Tao’s reflexive approach of suspecting my role as a scum one. Which I think makes her town because I have had a lot of beef with that approach in recent games but it seems to be town who do it more than scum and I have legit seen Hu Tao do the same sort of thing in a prior game.
Ftr that’s more of a recent consideration, my initial lean came from the feeling that I was being set up and your play felt more in line with that worldview if you are scum.

I tried to give my thoughts but HPE's role of mafia bird watcher. Doesn't that sound like scums way of spying on the hoods? Since all the flavors of my hoods are birds?
Thinking about that atp hurts my head because I would expect that if there weren’t scum in those hoods at all but there has to be fmpov. And like, it wouldn’t make sense for me to be scum with HPE if that was her role either, so I think the most logical idea is that HPE’s role does something else.

Gamma can you explain again why you targeted me n1 even though I led the ircher wagon?
I explained it when I claimed: I wanted to peek your hood with pk and I believed he would have claimed any other hoods he had so I felt peeking you would be more interesting.

I am reading them btw. I want to go back to some notes I took D4 which were on how different players handled the Ircher wagon. I think that will probably be the main factor in my choice.

Frankly I wouldn't be surprised if the scum PT has Ircher going "hey guys I'm sick of rolling scum and don't really want to deal with this, just bus the heck out of me and ride your towncred."
I haven't really even looked back at day one, it's so nice how Hu has all this at her fingertips to refresh our memories! And here she was, so uncertain what to do just an hour ago.
Um what? What are you basing this idea of Ircher being sick of rolling scum on?

I thought back to that D2 quagmire that got Titus and pk eliminated and I remembered I still have a nagging feeling regarding that and Aureal’s involvement in it VOTE: Aureal
I don’t see my mind changing here, I haven’t done that work I mentioned earlier but it would likely just confirm my bias so if this is a loss then GG to Hu Tao.

I was kinda shitting myself thinking I was being hoodwinked and set up to be the game-losing miselim. So I wanted to hold my fire until I had a sense of the situation

oh, and the games that required the modkill are over, so we can talk about it now. not much to talk about, though, it was just an unfortunate accident. we tried to just let things lie, but it became clearer and clearer that it was impacting reads across multiple games, so we decided it was best to rip off the band-aid. Doctor Drew's replacement was a better safe than sorry situation. apologies for how that played out.
what was the reason for the modkill?
Titus claimed her role from another game here and presumably Drew caught onto that
