After a read through of Gerhard's posts, I've found a couple of notable things:
1. Voted Edward in his first post for Edward's plan and later called out Edward/Orski for their lack of activity.
2. In his 3rd post, said Igor could be "opportunistic alien scum" but left his vote on Edward.
3. Switched his vote to Stuart in his 4th post where it would remain for the rest of the day except for when he raised concerns over Stu being a jester, which Igor quickly quashed.
4. The rest of the day is spent questioning Stuart, except for his 38th post which strongly promotes the Stuart lynch over the Emile lynch proposed by Tracey.
5. In his 24th post, he draws attention to Otto's lack of activity, but after Otto drops the hammer he warns us against tunneling Otto.
It's tough to tell whether some of these points mean the mentioned players are more likely scum or town, but the main thing I take away from all of this is that I believe Emile is scum. If Emile was town, Gerhard would have no problem switching his vote over especially since Stuart probably would have been lynched anyway. Also, there are 2 key quotes from Emile:
Emile wrote:Gehard is meta-fishing, that's true, but is that scummy? I personally think that meta benefits the town more than scum
Emile wrote:Gerhard--There's really no reason to think that Gerhard is anything but town, really.
Emile was also very quick to believe Otto's claim without even asking him any questions about it. For these reasons,
Vote: Emile Buchard
I'll also be keeping an eye on Otto for his hammer and claim, especially given this quote:
Otto wrote:There was no reason for him (Stuart) to claim so early in the game his ability, other than to use it as a scare tactic. For that reason I conclude he is scum, and wish to get rid of him.
Granted, Otto's claim comes a little later in the game, but it still feels unnecessary and like a cheap copy of Stu's role.

What do Gerhard and Spencer think about this claim (since they declared that they would vote Otto tomorrow)?
I know Spencer said this, but I don't believe Gerhard ever did.
