I agreed with some of **Johnny Bravo** ’s arguments about **hawkeyop** and **Biotop**. He thought they were the last 2 scum. I agreed in that, if hawkeyop was scum then so was Biotop.

The converse isn’t quite as strong as I suggested, but the argument against Biotop was lessened if hawkeyop was town.

Given that, the choice of **Scathach** was clear: if it’s a mislynch then there are strong pointers to the 2 remaining scum. If it is a correct lynch then we have lots of time to find the one remaining scum.
