Why are you so hung up on lynching Grush Sinensis? You seem to neglect that the fact that even if a mislynch is likely on day one it's still better to try to lynch scum than to lynch someone who thus far has been active and seems like town. At least BH conceded that if there was a substantiated target he would lynch them but you haven't done even that. Would you be open to a different lynch or not? How about this, you find me a confirmed mafia and I will happily support their lynch instead of grush's. Hear that mafia? Go ahead and reveal yourselves now. -_-... Don't be pedantic. I meant that if there is a target generally thought to be mafia would you lynch them.
Yeah. What target? There isn't one. So I want to hit grush. In the hypothetical situation that there were a good target, would I want them lynched instead of grush? Yes.
You're not going to get a good target day 1 if mafia does their job right. In the absence of a good target... what do we do? We could lynch a lurker, or we could lynch a non-asset (like grush). I think grush will do more damage to town than a lurker, so I want to lynch him.

Must be dumb then if those are my only two options. So what makes my post a red herring other than that I compared grush and wiggles, which I didn't do in the first place?

Using the word "than" pretty much makes it a comparison.
Meapak what do you mean by the post was a red herring? As far as I can see he wasn't trying to lead anybody to false conclusions, just saying he would ensure that a bad townie such as Grush was lynched instead of possibly a good townie.

I found this definition from online webster's, I think it should help you out:
[from the practice of drawing a red herring across a trail to confuse hunting dogs] : something that distracts attention from the real issue
So what issue are you confusing? Your reason for why grush should die. You call for grush's death and rationalize it by saying that It's better that grush dies than someone useful like wiggles. I called you out and said that wiggles would never die and your comparison between them is a red herring.
And please read your own posts, you did compare grush to wiggles:
I would much rather lose grush than someone like, for example wiggles.
In English, this is a comparison. It's mind boggling that you're even debating this.
I agree with your self diagnosis of dumb, however that doesn't rule out the possibility of scum.

He could have picked anyone who's not dying today, myself, ET, wiggles, forumite, anyone who's been contributing. The whole point here is that he's putting grush up in comparison to people who aren't going to die which really muddies his reasons for killing grush.

I was not implying wiggles was useful or town or scum. I was implying wiggles posts and his agenda are nicely presented and consistent, unlike grush. I wasn't drawing attention away from anything, unlike you stroking it in your last post. Nice dictionary definition, I've got one too:
ventose
\ VEN-tohs \ , adjective;
1. Given to empty talk; windy.
It's the word of the day at dictionary.com; just like yours it doesn't mean anything and is completely unrelated.

I move that whomever is elected seriously consider Sine for lynch today. Pushing the anti-town notion that townies can be more dangerous to town alive than dead alone is enough to make me think he's scum, but the fact that he backpedaled makes it even worse to me.
He was running on the platform of "I'm going to lynch grush" based on the fact that he "ruined my last game". However, from my point of view, a policy lynch on another player based on a different game is tantamount to randomly lynching...which I'm staunchly against. Scum DO reveal themselves D1.
But this was an unpopular notion, and he has now backpedaled to "Well obviously I only mean as a policy lynch...if a scummier candidate presents himself obviously I would lynch him. But this isn't what he said. He said "I'm going to lynch grush if elected"
Right now Sine is my top suspect, and I think anyone who is elected should consider him for lynch.

How many hours till this day ends?
placer-vote until i read everything in around 8 hours

Tell me a story about Kitaman MZ.

Just like last game, the only people sticking up for grush are other people. He just can't give it the time of day. The people who are after me, what are your agendas?
VE I'm curious how many people would vote me right now if it were a regular day.

No? Shall I tell you a story?
Once upon a time there was a player in this game named kitaman who much like his other veteran brethren had no interested in running for Leader of Earth. However, unlike his veteran brethren, kitaman had an idea of who he wanted to be mayor before posting. When Kitaman put forth Hyaach's name for election, the room erupted.
"Outrage! Why would you put forth a name of such little consequence in the game thus far?!" his brethren cried.
"Don't you see? My motivations are simple! I'm attempting to keep the elected role out of the hands of the dreaded Lyncher!" Kitaman replied sardonically.
Uneasily, his veteran brethren shuffled their feet and mumbled to themselves. Clearly unsatisfied with this response, one player rose from the ranks behind the veterans...
