Part 1 of 5
BARDICHE ISO:
Let's start from the top.
The game starts with the
fake vig in the confirmation phrase, as we all know. Bardiche has ended RVS as both town and scum, so the gesture itself is a null tell. Now, considering how demotivating this "vig shot" was to Shadoweh (a demotivation that seems to have stuck with her well throughout the early game), what with Bard's "justification" of the vig shot and all that jazz, I've considered if scum!Bard may have deliberately conjured up the vig shot for this express purpose, but unfortunately I can't read Bard's mind so I don't know what the hell he was thinking. I'm going to have to consider this whole episode a null tell. The snipes on other people during this period were basically gotcha games, but considering this was pre-ED1, Bard gets somewhat of a pass for actually trying to make cases.
After that comes the interesting bit. There's a short detour to Kiro, but then Bardiche
elegantly points out a disconnect in Schezo's posting, only to vote LLD for
a post which seems, at worst, more derp than scummy. The vote itself seems nitpicky and based on issues with wording in LLD's post; a questionable method of scumhunting, to say the least.
This post is pretty waffly concerning Kiro and LLD. Well, at least he admits it! LLD is "weird" and apparently Bard's vote is supposed to be some sort of a prod vote for opinions rather than a vote from scumminess? In the end LLD completely collapses and the wagon falls through.
On day 2, there's a
bizarre jump off of PX when he had been pushing PX earlier. Looks like an attempt to distance from a town wagon; suddenly Bard concludes that PX's posts on D1 were town-motivated, when his earlier posts had indicated nothing of the sort.
I've already talked about Day 3. The stated reasons for grilling Chaore and Shadoweh were mainly because of the last minute wagon switches, and in the end Bardiche didn't even vote Chaore. The attack on Chaore feels like it stems from a manufactured reason, even if the target turned out to be correct.
Day 4 has Bardiche sitting around saying "No opinions, sorry. （?∀｀）" UK suddenly jumps up to top scum read
here. What was new other than the fact that people had started looking more closely at her?
Day 5 is when Bard produces his magical opinions on everybody. Well, actually, just UK. Bardiche, do you think that UK is original or recruit scum? Also, we waited two game days for your cases; is this all? Oh wait, that's not all. Bardiche has a clear on Dormio for no reason at all. He's either whiteknighting or defending a scum buddy. Either way, he's not town.
So remember me saying scum can't kill me? It's because I'm Vanilla Town~!, and because I was posting minimalistically on D3/4 and am a good target for a mislynch! 
I don't like it when people label themselves as scum's favorite mislynch. It reeks too much of...what's the word? Keikaku Doori? Anyway, remember what you said to Shadoweh? (I think it was you, right?) Yeah.
Moreover, I steered clear of it because it was A) an evident popular wagon and B) I thought it would be useful to discuss more first, but I was obviously terribly wrong because MotK town rolls over and waits for the sweet salvation of death when they have scum. :U
Several things to note here. First of all, steering clear of a "popular wagon" is a
great reason not to vote for a scumbuddy. As for the second part, either you don't practice what you preach or you're just BSing. You can't have forgotten the last two days that quickly, can you?
Which is why I want the lurkers (I know Chaore has read this!) to unlurk and treat this game as if it has already begun and start coming in with observations and opinions. No reason to abstain from contributing immediately.
This is interesting in retrospect, but I don't know if it's important or not.
Verdict: Bardiche is scum, probably original scum.
