I don't see my name here, even though I've been pushing a jason-lynch for a while now. Is that because you don't think I'm scum because of it, or did you just miss me off the list?

Can you explain what these are?
I see jason finding a match between this game and Boon's scum-meta. Boon then posts links to games where he says it also matches his town-meta, which
jason chooses to ignore
. (He still has yet to acknowledge them). Since then, I don't think jason has done anything to elaborate further on his case on Boon.
As for the earlier points jason made on Boon, these seem more like attacks based on playstyle:
#160 - "
Are you HONESTLY and legit reading someone as town, because she thinks you are town, not scum?
" Yes this is bad play, but I've seen plenty of townies do it, and jason does nothing to explain why it's a scumtell.
#171 - Boon's jumbled posts from early game, again, I've seen plenty of townies do this. Here jason does give an argument for Boon being scum ("
you were worried that attention might slip away from me and onto actual scum
"), but it's one that I find weak and insincere. Whereas I do think these fluff-posts of Boon's are an easy target for scum to attack.
I think some of the reasons you give for finding sthar scummy are the same as the ones I see in jason (misinterpreting the arguments against him, building cases for show only), and I'll try and go into more detail on these later.

I hope you'll understand if I don't put too much faith in notsci, as
this was my last experience of him town-reading Mala.
Personally, I find Mala's play kinda wishy-washy, and that's why she's still in my possible-scum pile. I don't see that she's taken a strong stance on anyone yet or made especially incisive observations.
I agree with your comments on DW and sthar, and I'm agnostic on Thor (probably because I agree overall with the jason case).

Could be me, and that's because since page 5 you haven't posted anything I've found worth commenting on, and both of your catch-ups have been skimreads - as demonstrated by the fact that you don't even know who you're giving scum points to...

I think you are misreading here, I don't believe anyone has given intent to hammer or asked for a claim. There are 5 (perhaps) willing to vote jason, but Trojan unvoted because he also said he isn't ready for a lynch.
