This willingness to stop thinking and side with the known town player shows more concern with looking good than finding scum.

How am I acting like there are only two candidates? Please tell me how you see that.

Listening to NAF or listening to Hawkeye meant that I would either vote for Cookies or I wouldn’t.

I already had suspicions of Cookies - it’s well documented (wrong, but documented). NAF, an unknown, convinced me to unvote Cookies. Hawkeye, proven townie, convinced me to go back to my original vote.

Obviously, being dead didn’t make Hawkeye right. But it did allow me to trust his motives. I didn’t know NAF’s alignment and was hesitant to trust his motives.  
Frankly, warping a person’s voting like you have done is a common scum trick. Take some facts (who I voted for), mix in some blatant lies (acting like there was only two candidates), and cast me in a bad light.

And the second part:

I’m betraying a desire to align with town? What? I plainly stated that I was more willing to listen to Hawkeye - a known TOWN - than to someone who was not town. What exactly am I betraying here? I’m not so sure that word means what you think it does.
