Alright so, finished analyzing Day 3. Macman wagon analysis is next in line follow by just general D2 re-read.
Here's what I've got:
Pretty **** convinced Meta is scum. The way he and Kevin are interacting is particularly interesting.
To begin with, Ronike's indictment of Kev introduces a whole lot of WIFOM that has been rightfully pointed out. I think we have the pieces to solve the puzzle though, and I think the reality is that Kevin IS an SK of some sort.
Recall Sleepover tournament. I don't think there's a better example of how independent killers can be major antagonists for scum. I've always been of the opinion that SKs are more a threat to scum than they are to a town. Ronike's push for Kevin upon allegedly finding out that he is a "hired gunman" (though it seems legit based on his flip) makes sense whether or not Ronike had concrete evidence that Kev was an SK or a vig. Obviously, either of the two are just as dangerous to him and his buddies.
Here's where I think Meta v. Kev as Scum v. Indy seems to fit.

Metas initial blatant role phish just REEKS of scum to me. There was absolutely no reason to out that kind of a hint toward what may or may not have been the TRUE aim of the breadcrumb. Looks like scum trying to make that knowledge public to justify a Xiivi flip of the predicted role and be able to say "wow, scum must've not known that was his role, and since I revealed it I can't me maf since he'd be dead already".

Meta begins to tunnel hardcore on Kevin. He definitely seems Kevin as an open threat to him and has locked in. The fact that he's pushing so hard for Kevin, knowing Ronike's flip, just screams scum trying to finish the job and get the cred that Ronike was probably hoping was an SK flip. Meta's digging his heels in hardcore already and it looks like nothing other than new scum that's feeling cornered and pressured because of the loss of an experienced partner. Wouldn't be surprised if this is meta sans coaching.
His next post doesn't do much good for him either. He also names Bobba Fett as speculation of Kevin's role which is basically has "lol mafia rolecop info slip" written all over it.

Minor point, but something that shouldn't be ignored. Why suggest lynching the confirmed governor? This doesn't make ANY sense without a strong case for why we should believe there's a scum governor in this game. I said it in Monster Island mafia and I'll continue to do so; there's no reason to believe what is less likely unless there is ample contextual evidence to show otherwise.
So yeah, everything I'm seeing D3 points to Scummeta v IndyKev. Meta is definitely the play at this point. Vig should take care of Kev unless of course Kev IS our vig.

Sums up pretty handily why Kev isn't the play over Meta.

I assume this is the style of post that is giving you all red flags about him? When I did a light re-read earlier I noticed that this seems to be the extent of his contribution level. Need to go over the content of his posts though before I talk about his wagon though.
