4. IGCD
Can IGCD be scum?
Yes, of course.
What about his claim?
Living Failures, Vanilla (he didn't say "prey" but it's not worth reading too much into such things). He was one of the few pressured into claiming d1, with his claim coming Topic 3, Post 122. He originally responded to corrik by saying he moved "every other night". This was presumably a joke and reference to dead by daylight mafia.
What does it mean for his claim if he is actually scum?
Vanilla is always a pretty safe claim, unless the game turns out to have no pure vanilla. But the opening flavor of the game involved the "blood minster" dying as pure vanilla and ulti called himself vanilla (T1P118). There was also speculation that I was vanilla trying to draw a scum shot. Suffice to say the likelihood of a no vanilla game was pretty low by the time topic 3 rolled around, so it's a pretty safe bet. It also came shortly before JC's own vanilla claim which was not believed. The timing is good to be an early vanilla claim as scum.
What about his voting record?
IGCD placed SO many votes day 1. 3 on blade, 2 on wallz, one on myself, lopen, peaf and his final vote stayed on JC. IGCD got onto the JC train early, as the 3rd vote. Ulti, Ben and IGCD voted within about 5 minutes of each other, pushing JC to 3 where he stayed for about the next 40 minutes until things started happening in the final 16 minutes of day. If IGCD is scum he placed his vote hoping that the lynch would move elsewhere (peaf, red and ifrit all had multiple votes on them during that final hour), but I don't see a good way for IGCD to pull his vote back. The worst part about the JC vote (which again, was a good vote) is that it was left without comment. He had some posts on the previous page where he was defending himself for lying about saying he moved every other day, he had a post at the top of page 4 responding to corrik who said IGCD claiming when he didn't have to makes him look town, and then the unvote/vote came without comment. He went on to say that he trusts Ulti.
And interesting tidbit is that all of IGCD's other vote targets from day 1 are still alive (Blade, Peaf, Wallz, FD, Lopen). Unless all 5 of us are the remaining town that could read as putting down votes on scummates day 1.
IGCD voted much less day 2, ending on Corrik (3). IGCD might be scum and Corrik might be scum, but I don't see them as scum together based upon day 2. He also had votes on Ben and Red and he probably just leaves his vote on Red if corrik is a scummate. Alternatively IGCD could know both red and corrik are town and be trying to set up successive mislynches. Because IGCD did end on Red day 3 despite having cast a vote that presumably would have saved red from being lynched day 2. Mostly though IGCD seemed to fully commit to being Ulti's vote lackey after day 1 so most of his vote decisions should be taken with a grain of salt.
What does any of this say about his potential scummates?
Well as I mentioned above, not scummates with Corrik. And probably not scummates with peaf after this whole day 1 "compromise" thing to go against his blade pressure and vote the person blade wanted to vote. So that leaves Blade, Lopen, Ulti, Wallz. It seems pretty brazen to be openly "ride or die" with one of your scummates, following them around from vote to vote so we can probably take Ulti off that list as well. It's not impossible, just less likely. Blade would be weird with the way day 1 was spent, so probably just IGCD/Lopen/Wallz is the most obvious combination if we're putting IGCD as definitely scum.

But this musing prompts a question.
Ulti, do you have any reason (other than his fanboyism) to believe IGCD is town?
