(1) You all are coincidentally correct that I may have a poor stretch. I assumed my role could imply something about the scum, but it could imply something about an item.
Nothing strange about the mechanics of my role, but my neighborly idea is to give a cup of sugar to bake into the townie pie. My role at least makes me optimistic that there might be other information to glean about the scum, rather than be blind. So I provided what I can.

Kennigit: What's your opinion on Jarrema?
My gut is to think he wasn't paying attention. I've taken a lot of thought over this typing up this post.
I don't think I've ever seen on cfc someone do an unnecessary duplicate vote knowingly to create momentum. So I 100% assume Jarrema probably forgot he was voting Snerk.
The question is whether jarrema voted (the second time) snerk because he saw in the mafia quicktopic his dear buddy majiffy was being lynched, or if he thought something like this
On the other hand, if you [majiffy] are scum, you're suicidal. Or a very large risk-taker. Either way, it ain't doing you good.
My gut is to think Jarrema thought majiffy was too wild to be a scum earnestly.
Jarrema came in at a time with some precedent to not go on majiffy. jht pulled out of majiffy in the thick of things after starting on majiffy, and legato followed the 2 posts after also not pursuing majiffy. Both were town. Snerk also did not commit to the majiffy wagon, and right when jarrema showed up. The wagon lost some steam.
The conflicting thought (e.g. why I am voting pouter pigeon) is he really came in there to seem "wise" about being able to read townieness. Spaceman and Pouter Pigeon seemed to try to be very cautious about it. I already criticized spaceman in day phase 1.
Jarrema could be doing the same thing, but he was more committed in his statement. To the effect of "[I believe] majiffy is town". I generally think scum avoid absolutes early on. It shows you could have some knowledge. Scum have to hide any potential of Perfect Information Syndrome. Jarrema drew in a hard line. Spaceman and pouter pigeon "softballed" in some friction to the wheels of the majiffy wagon.
I would hope Jarrema/Majiffy were just scum teammates, because then basically 2 of majiffy/jarrema/martinluther are explicitly scum (martinluther could have been an ignorant townie that just accidentally saved a scum, if the majiffy/jarrema angle was there). There is a chance jarrema/majiffy could be connected as townie teammates though, with a sanctioned quicktopic (masons).
I personally take no reads on majiffy himself because he was just chaos.
