Limiting the lynch to two players is pro-scum, as manipulative scum can make sure that those two options are townie. I'm not saying we shouldn't consolidate, just I don't see why we shouldn't push our first choice lynches and then compromise.
I pretty much agree with Tunkegs emotive state as I feel pretty much that way too. VE is being irrational, WBG is baiting him, Matt and Marv are being abusive, Katina is lurking in an anti-town way, now Tunkeg is giving up, N_T played an anti-town D1. All these players have or are hurting town... and none of them are currently on the lynch shortlist. This town does indeed have a sucky atmosphere.
That said giving up and promising some amazing insight is not helping, hence why I listed Tunkeg as acting anti-town. What is hilarious is that in such a town atmosphere, the optimal scum play is actually to post calm objective rational posts, like Nevillus and Acid. This is exactly what Marv and I did in LIV and it worked like a charm.
All I can say is I urge all those butthurt players to swallow your pride and resort to pushing your cases rather than kill town with your ego.
I'm voting Katina because I think lurking day 2 with no reasoned out post is the scummiest thing anyone has done so far, I still find N_T's change in posting style highly suspicious. If I had to consolidate I would go for Zealos, or even Tunkeg over Zelblade. I wouldn't be happy about it though.

Well, why don't you have a read of my katina post yourself?

froggy i find it pretty ironic you call me and marv abusive (among other things) and then in a later paragraph call the us all "butthurt"

Obviously I didn't take part in the games you're referencing, but I'll take your word, unless you think I should read them over.
Assuming you're right with what you're saying, and Katina is normally very strong with her scumreads, maybe we should be putting more pressure on Nova. Her case is pretty weak, and I'd like her to elaborate on why she thinks Nova is scum, if she really believes Nova is scum, then she should try harder to convince us to vote for him.
In general though, it feels like people are to happy to see one good case and just jump on, rather than try to improve town atmosphere overall. Even if these players are town, they seem far too happy to sit back and let one or 2 influential veterans do all their work for them.

So you disagree with my conclusion that option 2 was more likely, given her general posting in the thread as well?

I would say that based on purely the thread so far, I would agree with you, however I would like to hear Katina elaborate on her case further, to see if she really thinks Nova is scum, or whether it's a case of "I need someone to call mafia, so I'll just call out the spammer"

Any more posting on my part seems a waste of time at this point. Just make sure to read my filter when I flip, you'll see who needs lynching.

You do realise that even if you are townie, it doesn't make you miraculously correct in your reads, right? ^^
Two things that have given me back a bit of confidence in the Zealos lynch:
1) Matt's post about Acro in GoT
2) your wishy-washyness regarding Katina there
I'm kinda liking a Zealos/Katina scumteam atm

You two agreeing with each other gain, it's like déjà vu.
Zealos is probably getting lynched today. If he flips town, I want you both dead.

I would like to add a bit of meta case to my argument against Zealos.
Where he was scum in SNMM X he was aggressive from the get go.
He was townie in LIV and although he got mod-killed early and made practically no posts, there was one post that stands out.

At the moment it just feels like we are running in circles. We seem to be very quick at voting for the first thing that anyone does wrong without really thinking about it.

I think the Blub thing at the start was really pretty strange, but I'm not convinced it warrants a vote on its own.
Palmar: I don't get why he has to post so much useless stuff. I don't ever agree with the arguement "It's what he normally does" because it just lets him hide his scumminess. So what I would say to you is; if you're town, just tone it down a bit to allow people to make useful points instead of constantly replying to random stuff you're posting.
Conciliatory. Constructive. Non-abrasive - even when he's having a go at Palmar, he's actually trying to get him to post more usefully.
To the part in bold: he's not willing to make a vote there and then. He wants to think about it, and make a strong read before committing to a vote. Compare to this game.

I've posted 4 quotes here. He immediately votes on VE and then immediately switches to Acrofales. He later switches to Mouldy, with an excuse for deferring his scum hunt until later. Just for emphasis, compare to his attitude as town in LIV:

That's terrible meta. Check my other town meta. I always come off aggressive and abrasive, its my nature. I like to argue. I mean just look at my case against risen from my other town game. You're picking and choosing things that suit your case without looking at it objectively.
