So anyway I look at Popcorn Fairy's post at 368 and I see a few key points

1. Suspicion of Chris
2. Non-commital suspicion of Blade
3. Non-commital suspicion of Hb
4. Plum is town
5. Ulti is town
6. Firebolt is town

Now, this is a very smart post for scum to make, particularly if Hb is scum, in terms of 4d chess. Here are the things it allows:

In a head to head it allows you to jump off onto Blade by default. Chris is strongly tied to the Hb lynch, so it's very easy to lateral off that and say "well I think Chris is scum so I'm going to vote for Blade"
In a head to head where Hb is way in front, you can jump off onto Hb to make yourself look better later.
You can also just stay on Chris if bussing feels too blatant and say "well I suspected Hb"

But yeah basically it allows too much movement on the existing lynch trains without actually committing to one. Unfortunately it's too good so someone with honed senses like myself will realize how scummy it is.

On the other points: Plum is the one person who had shown suspicion of Popcorn Fairy-- so it's a weak attempt to butter him up. Ulti is largely thought to be town and is a potentially confirmable role, so this is the illusion of insight on alignments that doesn't actually clear up. Firebolt I think is mostly just for internal consistency since someone will point out "hey what happened to your minor Firebolt push earlier"

But yeah it's just such a scummy post. I don't believe town makes that post at any point.

No problem!
