What MY dumb ass didn't realize at the time is that Pooky being your partner also makes sense with your reaction.
Nevertheless, you've gone from giving me 100 to near 0 paranoia, next to Clemency, but even then, he's a gut read.
If this seems stupid, that's because it is.
I follow everything else, but how is Pooky involved given my reaction? I was going to pass the baton to Vulture out of experience. Why, when given the option, would I willingly choose to keep town over my only partner when I said that I didn’t believe scum was between them?

It also makes sense as scum imo. The reads on me were/are split, so if he wanted to hand it off to me (the better to get townier players limmed), he'd first want to gauge whether it would look partner-y so he won't go down with me, if that's how things go later on.
Plus it's not like graciously waiting for a slot to be active is a rare camouflage tactic. Easy townpoints, you literally don't have to do anything.
"Town slip" is very generous; I wouldn't assign alignment to it. If there's something else that frames the action as towny, though, feel free to bring it up.
Could you reword your first paragraph. Using only pronouns, I cannot gauge what you’re talking about specifically.
I disagree with your last two paragraphs. Waiting is one thing, sure, but the timer expired. That was a direct gamble to take. There’s only 2 scum, so to take out half your team on towncred is silly.
Okay, I tried rewording it. I don't know how much it matters considering I forgot that he actually
did
let the baton expire and all that, but here it is:
"Taking the risk also makes sense as scum. Town's reads on me were/are split, so if scum!Wisdom were going to pass the baton to me (both to keep me as a future mislim, and to get townier players limmed), he'd first want to gauge whether it would make he and I look partnered.
Regardless of my alignment, if Wisdom's scum, it would be risky to associate himself with me, as that could negatively his towniness in people's eyes.
Scum!Wisdom holding onto the baton instead of passing it to me immediately creates an appearance of "having to seriously consider", thus creating negative association between us, or at least less positive association than handing it to me immediately would."
....though to be honest I might've just explained why Wisdom is town.
Then again, I'm more likely to be limmed before Wisdom, so I could be his token tr.
But then there's the baton expiring thing so probably he's town.
Well, yes, you actually made a really good Wisdom town-case. My opinion still stands from the start of d2. Wisdom is at the top of my town list.
This explanation also puts more suspicion on you. I don’t trust that by you expanding on a thought, that you’re able to change your own opinion. It’s as if you’re forming your opinion after making a case, which is not town indicative.
To clarify: I’m not saying changing your own opinion is not pro-town. Quite the opposite. What I’m saying is that the difference between the posts you provided was mostly expanding on implied nouns. No new information was given outside of you acknowledging the time limit.
What I am sure of now is the scum team is absolutely not Rat and Wisdom.

right now it feels like ratmans is just going to inevitably get elimmed
if that happens and he's town, I'd like for ratmans to give us a team solve that we follow to the letter tomm cuz at least we know it comes from a town source

sort of as a contingency plan
Respectfully disagree. He can flip town and still be wrong.
