Scum don't usually vote together so blatantly like that, I think it's much more likely that they're anti-aligned. (One scum and one town between the two.) They're not ignoring each other enough to be scummates imo.
Between the two of them though, I think Numbers is more likely to be scum? Based on their post history I'm pretty sure that this is their first real mafia game, but that honestly makes that "I think Coldblooded is town" post feel even weirder?
Like in my experience, the hallmarks of a new town player are like, making super overconfident reads D1 and getting mad whenever anyone votes for you because obviously you're town and everyone who doesn't realize that is an idiot. Whereas new scum are much more likely to play it close to their chest and do as little to draw attention as possible. Numbers falls into the latter camp hard.
I don't think I'm really going to fit into the first one, for assorted reasons. One, I know enough about getting people to believe you that I shouldn't squirm when I'm pressured. Two, I have read that one guide posted at the start of this game multiple times. Three, I won't make many overconfident reads D1, nor do I see myself making any more. That one read on Coldblooded was a mistake and I realize that, and have learned from it.
Now for my defense. First and foremost, I think that not speaking in an argument means that you are telling everyone you are fine with the points against yourself, as you obviously are not doing anything to refute them, therefore, I'm not comfortable being silent right now, because, as aforementioned, silence tells everyone that I'm fine with many people saying that I'm scummy, and I obviously don't want that, because according to my role I'm a person who prays to some deity to prevent the killing or lynching of another person. Thirdly, I want to get further in the game, so as to help remove the Infiltrators from the premises. Don't forget, that's kinda what we're here for.
Oh, and by the way, anyone can ask my thoughts on a particular person, and I'll answer as fast as I can.
