Reading all the d1 walls again made me remember why I put off this reread for so long. I ended up skimming most of them.
Anyway!
Shalako did a lot of responding to Darkninja and DNA basically tunneled onto Shalako all the way from D1. Compare Shalako's interactions with Bard, some light questioning and minor interactions. Makes me think Shalako would ignore his third buddy as well. Serela and Dormio could both fit this profile I suppose.
Bard keeps pursuing Serela over a question he's already answered, and at the end of the day suddenly handwaves Serela for effort and leads a powerwagon on Dormio. Does this look like a late D1 bus? I don't think so. At that point the wagons were pretty spread out and Dormio was so inactive that he could easily have been lynched imo despite people like me pushing against the lynch.
D2, Dan comes into the day strongly with a Bard push. This in itself doesn't mean too much since he could have picked this up as a replacement read. But Dan never really lets up on this read and he does note that the only other lynch he prefers is the Shalako lynch. Coming from another player this could be a superbus but like I've said many times before, Dan doesn't do heavy busses as scum, especially not in a role madness game, although under the scenario that he's ascetic he could afford it more I guess. But it would have been far easier for him to just park his vote on a townie like he's done in all his other scum games.
Serela's D2 post on Bard with the most terrible waffles ever reminds me why I wanted to lynch him back then.
Dna starts the Shalako wagon going on D2 at a time when the wagons were stagnating, which reaffirms the town read I have on him. Meanwhile Serela goes after Shadoweh.
Anyway, despite the governor, from Shalako/Bard's interactions it looks like the scum didn;t commit to bussing until the end of D2 when Shalako weaseled his way onto Bard, so Serela defending Bard/Shalako fits into that.
I got to Night 2 and Dan/dna's reaction to the no lynch and questioning of Shalako's claim both read genuine. Serela in the mean while tries to push the angle the Shalako is a town unlynchable or delayed something or other. I think the scum, having a governor, might suspect a town vig and would want try to prevent them from shooting Shalako and saving town from wasting another day.
Day 3 Sky comes in and barely mentions Serela at all, meanwhile Serela doesn't do any analysis of Sky's posts and the only reason he finds Sky suspicious is because of his role. Which is fine, but it kinda shows that Serela wasn't really trying to figure out sky apart from the role stuff. Sky did post content, even if it was sparse, and I think some to it was questionable enough to analyze at the very least.
Meanwhile DNA does a good job questioning a lot of people and Dan defends Dorian at a point where the scum can't really afford to lose another player.
The rest just looks like confirming all of this tbh.
Pretty confident in lynching Serela and ending the game at this point, rereading just made all the connections obvious and there are a lot of things which show that everyone else is town.
