Sorry, I guess it's reaching to point out Quin being reserved about listing suspects and to speculate about why he might be doing so. My mistake.
Oh, don't do this. Don't be that guy. I'm not even suspecting you for this in particular, but if you're going to be that guy, I'll break it down.

It's scummy because a scum quin following a lynch of teammate jay, in a game where his teammates may already under fire, and so many players are difficult to accuse because of the general civvie-trust vibes of the thread, when being asked what his suspects are, might quickly respond with listing two suspected players who aren't on his team.
Why me and Eloh? Why not Cbob or speedchuck or sog or LC. Why specifically list those two players? You weren't specifically asked for 2 suspects.
The first paragraph is reasoning through Quin's motives. That's fine. I mean, if you were to ask me who I suspected at this particular point in the game, I could respond in 5 seconds with my top 2 scum reads. Easy. So while your reasoning for motive might be correct, it is at least equally likely that the opposite motive is correct.
But rather than add extra evidence to support your read of Quin's inner thoughts and motives, you double down in paragraph 2.
"Why me and eloh?" Fair question.
"Why not Cbob or speedchuck or sog or LC?" I dunno, why WOULD he suspect those out of the blue? What are you expecting?
"Why specifically list those two players?" Either they are his two prime suspects, or he's listing them out of convenience. Again, what are you expecting?
"You weren't specifically asked for 2 suspects." And now you're acting like the number matters. If you wanted a rainbow, you should have asked.
I don't read this line of questioning as scummy, necessarily. Townies can tunnel too. But don't get sarcastic with me when I say that your argument is reaching. Find some substance somewhere else.
Speculating Quin's motives is fine. Questioning Quin about being reserved is fine. But that second line of questions, based off of a couple of innocuous reads, is reaching. Or, at least, it is until Epi comes in here and tells me there's a more accurate word for what you're doing with that second paragraph.
I considered for a second labeling this as off-topic, but IDK. Others might find your reaching questions to be a scum indicator. So long as you're buzzing Quin, though, do you have any other evidences to support this Quin mindset? Preferably from another post?
