Palmar a bit too sure of himself in tone for my liking. Like he's got somebody lined up to be gifted a pair of shiny concrete boots, maybe a weak teammate under threat (which could be sandro).
He's very conscious of the Trfel/Sandro dichotomy here but not as motivated to deliver much explanation of his own as he is to appear motivated to lynch into it.

I think you could be, but I am less inclined to try and lynch you right now because:
1.) you are active and engaged in the thread, and
2.) transparent about your thought processes and reasoning

It gives him an option to acknowledge it was a terrible post without saying it was a terrible post.

Conveniently after people such as marvellosity and Vivax also show suspicion about sandroba's opening post and your push onto me didn't seem to get much support. It feels like you're giving up really easily, for being so certain, unless it was just a pressure, but it doesn't read like a pressure to me? Or maybe that's the point of the pressure.
Regardless though, the timing feels rather convenient.

Pretty much that, except it wasn't just pressure.
I don't care about the timing or what it looks like, I would tunnel you regardless of what anyone else thinks if I thought it was the best way to solve the game, but it had run its course, and we were about to start going in circles.

It still feels to me like you are kind of just forcing yourself to scum hunt instead of being naturally curious about people's alignment, but maybe that's just your style.

It helps him unfreeze if he's mafia. Which helps me.
Slam looks okay. I don't think he's been following thread sentiment, just hanging around, posting random thoughts. Extremely laid back. Seems fine to me. It's like he's watching raindrops through a window of safety which suggests town.

Leaning suspicious from what I've seen so far. I guess instead of waiting I'll let the cat out of the bag, I'm impatient. It's almost like an apology, like what were you waiting for? And now you are kind of backtracking, which also doesn't match with the way you lead out originally. it's all quite jarring to me. I assume you are talking to me, I am having a bit of trouble understanding what you are actually getting at here though. Yes, I think sandroba is suspicious. No, I wouldn't wager high stakes on it. He's one of the people I'm most interested in (along with Alakaslam and perhaps yourself and an off-chance of Vivax, but I'm not certain yet. I posted the way I did to try and figure out sandroba's alignment (and eventually everyone else's). Just because I'm not very confident yet doesn't mean that I can't figure things out and investigate and that sort of thing. I didn't bring any aggression, that's just me trying to ask questions and figure things out. If there is anything you'd like me to clear up please don't hesitate to ask, I'm just having a bit of trouble understanding this post though, it feels a bit nebulous to me.
Wanna tell me about this, Trfel?

The first sentence and last paragraph yes. I was thinking along the same lines.
I really respect Palmars play and wanted more than cocky one liners at around the same time that vivacious posted that.

Not really. I remember watching an analysis video he posted. That’s about it.
