Activity is not alignment indicative. Do you no longer believe Soctor is scum?

We need to seriously consider lynching one of them because if either (or both) of them is scum then they have no reason to post anything @ this point. Like why would scum ever post unless they were forced to?
I've found that lurking doesn't tend to work as a scum strategy, as it starts to become obvious as the game progresses. Overall, activity tends to be null as a tell. I, for example, would get awfully bored if I purposefully lurked, as that would defeat the entire purpose of playing the game.

Honestly, I still feel like you're holding back on information and opinions. You're supposed to be the strongest player in this game, but you don't seem to be acting like it beyond your ability to deflect questions.
I may very well be holding back on information and opinions, but if I am, it's because I don't think it's best to disclose them just yet. Also, me being an IC just means I have at least 5 games worth of experience and am willing to try to teach you how to play. That does not necessarily mean I'm the strongest player in the game, although it probably means that I shouldn't expect to live to see the end of it.

I want you to answer "my question" in one big paragraph rather than two "pinpointed sentences" because it is a paragraph.
Ok.

First, your case relies on a Burden of Proficiency argument, which is based on me being scummy based on my experience. Second, the overall sentiment that I have been only responding to things directly related to me is not true. A decent reading of my ISO would tell you that.
Happy now? I essentially said the same thing in paragraph form.

Lynching lurkers is a fantastic idea, but not if we have people who others feel they have valid reasoning against. Lynching lurkers also requires that we have lurkers. While we do have a few people who are low on post count, I don't really think anyone is lurking, my opinion of that might change Day 2 though. In our current situation, I don't think that lynching lurkers is a good idea.
So, lynching lurkers is a fantastic idea, but we shouldn't do it because it's a bad idea?

I don't love bulbazak this game, it feels like he's faded after his initial tunnel on hopkirk and hasn't been keeping pace with the thread since then, while tunneling might be more of a playstyle thing for him, I'm not seeing him make a real effort to convince people, at this point he's parking his vote and not doing much else, despite keeping up with posts, they feel mostly empty in terms of content. lean toward scum here.
So you noticed that I've not been keeping pace with the thread and have seem distracted. Did you ever think RL issues might be involved, and that I might naturally be tired and distracted right now? I'll be honest, there are days where I don't feel like playing at all, and I feel worn out most of the time atm. It should get better once I'm not performing every night, but I fail to see how my activity or my apathy is indicative of scum.
I also don't like LTO's list of questions, and I won't be answering them. They're not framed as a means to help him scumhunt, but rather for him to get a feel for what the thought process of the town is and to look important. Those are all questions that would be useful for a scum team to know going into the night phase. I'd vote him, but there's something else I noticed holding me back, and I'd rather keep it close to my chest for now.
Also, Hopkirk, quit making me like you.
