Ok, I'm back and I see that a dealine's been imposed in a week. We need to start coming to a consensus on a good lynch NOW rather than organize this thing last minute. Everybody who already hasn't should lay their suspicions out clearly so we have something to discuss.
Now I lost my top suspect in Don for the moment with the sincerity of his confusion. Though I do agree that watcher/tracker is a fairly easy scum fake claim(I've seen it used a decent amount of times). But for now I'm satisfied leaving Don around.
Now my top lynch candidate right now is FHQ mostly in regards to his early play Day 1.
FHQ wrote:...speaking of which, if he IS the scapegoat, I find it interesting that Goatrevolt is pushing him the hardest. It by no means is a scumtell, but if Budja just made a mistake (and taking Spolium's word for it, not for the first time), your case on him can be used as a misdirection by scum.
Point 1: Here is an obvious connection to Budja. Definitely appears to be deflating the pressure pointed against Budja. Implies that Goat is scummy for pressuring Budja over a possible scumtell. Doesn't fully commit to this as a scumtell against Goat I feel as to avoid drawing retaliation from Goat(fails though). Why would it be wrong of a townie to push a tell we have no way of knowing was a genuine mistake or not?

Point 2: Seeing another connection to Budja. It's apparent that FHQ is attempting to change the focus from Budja to the lurkers. I feel like the lurker hunts are always the easiest way to avoid actual scum hunting. The only ones I feel town should ever go after is the active lurkers. Ones who constantly only provide fluff posts.
Point 3: Lack of any vote until page 10 or any real stances throughout the earlier stage of the game. He Pressures Spring which I have no problem about. The thing is he just never committed to anything really or followed up on the comments that he pointed out.

Budja and FHQ who are your top candidates for a lynch. Who are you most willing to lynch and what is holding you back from laying your vote on that person?
Speaking for myself, at the time of my previous post, the vote count wasn't up yet, and I felt cautious to vote until I know what the standings are.
Thing is, my suspicions earlier in this game was mostly 'fishing' to see responses, rather than having something solid. That being said, I rather like my feeling on spring at the moment, so I feel confident to vote: springlullaby.
Point 4: I call FHQ out on the lack of vote, he finally votes Spring. Appeasement anyone? I don't buy the whole waiting for vote count excuse really or his justification of no vote for earlier in the game.
Point 5: Drops off the dead Spring wagon with a suspicion leaning towards Red, but never votes him...Why?

atm I'm torn between DO for his absurd 'policy vote' suggestion and RC.
RC, I just don't buy your 'opinion vs defense' argument (or is that just my opinion?). Personally I think you would have looked much better if you just conceded on being on the defense for spring. This justification of your defense that isn't one is just doesn't work for me.
Point 6: Complains that the game is stagnating. Why don't you do something about this problem? You're not helping by adding little. You're waiting for other people to stir things up. Again I see no vote for Red though you still express suspicion of him.
Overall I see little scum hunting and early connections to Budja.
Vote:FHQ
DO's basically gone inactive. I'd still put him as my secondary lynch choice right now.
I see no problem with Spring withholding her protection. I do think she should unveil it if that person is about to be lynched so we can take it into consideration. I also think she shold reveal it closer to deadline because she might not be around tommorw to tell us. She's continually been expressed as town so I think she's definitely going to be in the scum's eye tonight. Better to hear it later today than never. I'm not a fan of Spring's style in this game and curt responses such as "I'll play the way I want." But there's no sense in badgering her to play different if she's chosen this way anymore. She's clearly set on it for the moment.
Now let's hear who others think would be a good lynch candidate. Deadline's here we need to act.
If you got it flaunt it.
