Hawk’s theories. The thing is, he’s mentioned some of this before so I know he genuinely believes that town allowing scummy play by either side is a bad idea and needs to be stopped. He really does think that we should stop saying “scum would never do that” and punish anti town behaviour.

But to accuse people who thought macey wasn’t scum as actively protecting him? That’s pretty weak for someone who’s thought about this so much.

I think you’ve used an idea you truly believe in and twisted that idea to suit your purpose, which is to get town lynched. I know you’ve had plenty of time to think about it as you came up with this long before the game started so I’d have expected a much more compelling argument from you if you were really town trying to find scum.

Re the death scene this morning. I have a theory which may be nonsense but I like it so I’m putting it in.

I jokingly wondered if we had an exorcist earlier due to bufftabby’s having a bloody handprint on her forehead. I’m now wondering if I may have been half right and Thing Fish (the Religious Figure Having a Crisis of Faith) investigated her. It could have been part of his role that if he found scum he had to exorcise them but due to his crisis of faith both of them would die.

Like I said, could be my imagination getting overactive but if I’m right then hawk’s saying:

> Story posted a vote count at night. I don’t think he would do that for no reason. Thing Fish was the leading vote getter when the night ended. I think he might have been night lynched.

would be (if he’s scum) a lie.

Anyway, toDay’s been hard to decide on who to vote for. I’m not convinced you’re scum hawk but you’re scummier to me than anyone else. Also, as you say, if you do turn out to be town we’ll have a lot of data points to look at afterwards.
