He's so clearly the recruited scumbag.
The way he was talking about looking for the recruited player and how niether Tidus nor Goofball were likely to have been recruited is what gives it away.
No. The recruit, as we discussed back in early Day One, stands to reason that they'd be an experienced player. Whether they'd be a VERY experienced player or just someone who's been around a while, I don't think anyone disagreed that the recruit, whoever they were, was unlikely to be a pure newbie.
I think/hope we can rule out tidus from that list. DGB, maybe, but she did ask some leading questions D1. There's enough of a feel of "distancing" between her and Fritzler (especially when Fritz comes out and says he thinks DGB is scum,
sans
investigation or any real reason at all, but then backs off and jumps down MoS' throat, staying there during the tidus lynch. Then D2 he jumps not back onto DGB, but back onto MoS (who I've never seen as scummy, except for his lurking), and then onto TSAGod, then LML, before finally switching to DGB. D3 deserves no real comment, of course, except that he did no jumping around whatsoever. I don't think Fritzler is above exploiting weakness in his teammates, and in a game with no investigative roles, it's relatively easy for scum to get on and off wagons, since they're all based on information available in thread, and thus they can't get "caught" by a cop who is holding a trump card.
But back to your original postulate, why would they recruit me? Aside from the above, what reasoning do you have to suspect me as the recruit, specifically? (Given my game history, I'd think a natural born scum would have been a statistically more likely analysis).

The above was meant to be a reply to Pooky, but it serves half the purpose of answering your question as well. As for Pooky, I don't trust him. Anyone who speaks with that much certainty in a mountainous game is either a) insane, b) a god among mafia hunters, or c) scum. I've seen what he can do once he gains the town's favor, even if it means starting with some sacrificial plays, and I don't like that prospect here. Of course others can see it in other ways.
It's mountainous. Even given tidus' meltdown and DGB's spazzing, we're doing well. REALLY well. I think too well, which is why I think scum are all over the early wagons, to stir up dust for the endgame.
