Sorry, been busy outside the internet. Will try to get a good post in now.

Not at all. Certainly no strategic worth within the previous banter.

No, this completely misrepresented my position. I would have much preferred a lynch of sideney over onion, due to the latter's more pronounced contribution to discussion. I've never expressed a willingness to let onion be lynched, and indeed if I had the time or opportunity to, I would have tried to push for a day 1 lynch of Anticollie or Haylen instead. I find active lurking (mostly of Anticollie) to be much scummier than the detached lurking sideney exhibited.
haylen wrote:- Advocates policy lynches. Not only is insisting on a policy lynch scummy, but it is also poor form.
I disagree again. Not at all scummy in my view, because, like you've said previously, it's a subjective issue that has differing opinions and judgements of. You contradict yourself trying to raise points against me. Please also note that I advised a policy lynch of lurkers because the deadline was nearing and the votes were more or less in the early stages, if i recall correctly. Nevertheless, your point of replacing lurkers instead of lynching is valid, but we wouldn't have had enough time to and I doubt the mod would be able to force a player to adapt his own playstyle.
- I'm apparently on top of his scummy list, when he has a better case on Echo, and his case on Echo is better than his case on Anticollie. Yet Echo is only 3rd on his scum list. Bussing?
That 'scummy list' was formulated in the early stages of my introduction to the thread. It merely serves as a first impressions list, and so the details may be inconsistent or hazy here and there (which I probably had already forewarned). Cases that I bring forward have nothing to do with the list anyway.
- Says he was tunneling Onion. Bullcrap was he, and anyway, i thought he thought Onion was town? Also says that he's asked the town not to tunnel. That's a slip right there.
Misrepresentation again. I was warning Raskol not to tunnel on onion (which I'll admit wasn't truthfully appropriate for that time), and not myself. I do maintain that onion is pro-town, and don't see how advising town on the D2 lynch is a slip.
Props to Echo for starting some discussion regarding the meta of lurking.
However, I didn't like Nikanor's immediate vote on Echo for blatant misrepresentation. Sure, he acknowledged his error in the vote, but I feel the reasons surrounding it aren't satisfiable, especially when he tries to justify it by "eliciting a townie reaction from Echo". The vote-unvote had me thinking of distancing initially, especially when he regards Echo's response as a townie response. But I find this pairing unlikely anyway. Most of what pings my radar was just the inconsistency in Nikanor's perspective, with the vote-hopping for little to no apparent reasons.
Again, Haylen, I find it necessary to call for a policy lynch all lurkers at the context of when it was spoken: deadline nearing and discussion stalling. In fact, like Raskol, I'm of the belief that policy lynches for ACCEPTABLE matters (lurking/lying) usually benefit the town in the long-run. And hey, might even get a scum or two included as well.

Inconsistency there, regarding my placement of the hammer vote. Do you find the hammer vote suspicious because it brought town blood, or because you thought it was premature, or for reasons that you can outline to me soon? Also, it's hypocritical when you address all of Haylen's points of suspicion of me while I'm away, while you find my "defending" of you suspicious.
Primary fos at the moment goes to Nikanor, for inconsistency and what I think to be inputting on irrelevant issues, and avoiding the main game.
Vote: Nikanor
