Okay, good job in exiling scum, I guess. I'll take my scummy hat today for basically defending the Galz exile all day.
faust is town, raptor is town (good job guys), Didds is town, LL is town, mcmc is town...almost all of the Galz wagon's town, I don't think scum's pushing that ever.
Vote: EFHW 's in the best possible spot for scum: outside the scum wagon, on the counterwagon, not directly tied to the Galz wagon on either side. If scum's on it, it would be either Space or gkrieg, which have the best bus spot and the least impactful vote.
Galz's flip is sadly the least-informative one scum could have given us, because we're guaranteed a Godfather in the setup, and it doesn't help us corroborate any town roles that claim later, in terms of how many of those we can expect.
On the other hand, this is one of the best wagons to get information out of.
Re-reading a little more, I think I'm feeling townier on Didds, and maybe scummy on MiX. MiX seemed to be actively looking for Galz alternatives, including voting LL after LL's Galz vote, and sending Galz another prod at #199 instead of engaging with the EAL brigade, and also moving onto mcmc as a viable-looking alternative. In the end, both MiX and ADK were around at mcmc's hammer, so either could have had the opportunity to vote there, but chose not to take it.
I agree that Didds looks townie, and yes, I was looking for alternatives: when LL voted, the exile was inevitably going to be Galzria, so I wanted another wagon.
I don't see why you're looking at me and ADK not hammering: I'm confused as to why mcmc hammered when he did, it was early enough to have an actual conversation with Galzria. Not to mention I was still reading Galzria's posts when mcmc hammered, lol.
There wasn't much to "engage with the EAL brigade", what did you want me to do?
There goes my scum!faust theory
Phone posting atm but I will say that I would be shocked if Galz's partners weren't both bussing
I would be shocked if both scum were bussing.

I'm working on a scum!mcmc theory. Still has some holes, though.
Hmm...I guess I can see it. The other scum would have to be sleeping too though, maybe Dylan? Because the Space wagon died so fast, and there were no other town wagons if mcmc's scum.

Do you really think that scum would have killed on-waggon, when the IC was also on-waggon, if both of the remaining pair were there too? For me and others in my position, that means that of the four alignment-uncertain other people on the wagon, 50% are scum. I think that's too bold an assumption.
I do think that mcmc's hammer and subsequent claim that it was because of a definite scumread, rather than the lurker-exile some of us were supporting, should be considered as a possible grab for townpoints from a scumbuddy. However, at the time Raptor and I voted for Galz, mcmc was the leading alternative. It wasn't until conf!town!faust put Galz up to four votes, quickly followed my LaLight, that Galz looked to be seriously in jeopardy... so maybe you can give a bit more scrutiny to gkrieg or mcmc for their very late-on-the-wagon votes, but I think it would be surprising if they're both scum.
I agree with this post so much.
