Assorted observations from my reread. Too late to pull it all together into an overarching post, but don't want to have you all wait for input from me even longer, as Korotan was seriously lacking in presence. I've only skimmed from #250 onward, so might return to some of that tomorrow still.

This weird claim puzzled me as well inside the quote, but it's a followup to:
---

Discussion up to this point focused on scum knowing town PRs, but scum almost certainly have one or more PRs as well, and town knowing what those PRs were, would indeed cause a broken game. This is why - even absent agent's claim about trent being on the original scum team - both town!trent and scum!trent would know that agent would be a certain lynch sometime soon, and that's why scum!trent couldn't simply go along with agentcarr's claim.

Lift was the first one to bring up the "both trent and lift could be scum" as a "remote" possibility in #170. I found that case likely even before rereading (ZFR was pretty convincing in #212, and SPF's #237 made it even stronger, while Lift's #258 is basically icing on the cake), but if trent flips town after all, then this might've been scum!Lift trying to salvage something from the disaster unfolding for his team?
Of course, if trent indeed also flips scum, then major town points to Lift.

I entertained some hypotheses about scum!trent honestly not knowing that he was scum, but those were put to rest here:
---

Agent outed himself in the previous thread, which didn't have sample PMs yet. (Which doesn't detract from the argument you clarified later that providing any info about your character when you know you're mafia is silly, but it does make agent's original outing a bit easier to understand; he probably thought the "Watcher of Kalunga" bit was flavour/costuming.

RedFireGaming: you stand out to me for not standing out at all. Please post more?

I find GameRager extremely suspicious. There's lots, but the core of it is the following:
contrast with
which came shortly after
@nmillar: What are your current thoughts on GameRager? Do you read linearly, so was your impression of gamerager based solely on posts up to agentcarr's #133, or did it also take later gamerager posts into account, where you simply hadn't yet seen the significance of what those were about?

ZFR was also pushing GameRager, which led to
Which, yes, fits GameRager's play style, but I still find it weak sauce.

This actually gave me pause. Surely scum!trent would've adviced scum!gamerager not to come to his defense?
But no, I think trent would've actually told gamerager to be his regular self, and so it still fits. GameRager is actually trying to build a defense of trent here (and in various subsequent posts), and so I predict a flawless town victory: agent, trent, gamerager.
