Ok, I'm on for a bit.
So first of all - Ruse and his "lists" and shit is bugging me as well. Seriously. Seriously? Let's cut the crap with claims of scum merely because of a list.
Secondly - I will admit my case was somewhat convoluted. If you'll take note, I did not vote after making it because I had set up what was a possibility in my mind, laid out the pieces, and saw that they only sort of fit. As to Kilava's concern:

I thought it might be useful to look at how we got to voting Thyr, especially if we think he's symp.
And then implied I was behind it. Of course he then implied that I'd decided to go for my symp to distract from my partner after I'd decided to go for my partner in the first place, or something similarly baffling.
Back to Ruse, what I'm wondering is how you think that Thyr turning up innocent makes me look more town like?
I would also like to take this opportunity to point out that, as it turns out, I was totally right about Thyr acting the noob.
Edited for clarity.
No, I did not mean you intentionally went after your own symp.
I meant you may have taken Thyr's stupid posting as a good distraction from your distancing from Trake. If you are scum, I don't even think you knew Thry was (possibly) your symp. Perhaps I implied otherwise, but did not mean to, hope that clarifies things.
Additionally, I'm glad I didn't lay down a vote on Kilava, because as much as Mockra's posts
seem to make sense, Anthras makes a good point in that they still just boil down to "smooth-playing argument." Which is on par with the list-making crap.

Vote Monok Ochem
I just caught up. Worthless poster is worthless. Maybe in the Vein of a HO type scum player? I don't know. But day 2 is the time to get rid of low/worthless posters regardless of if you have a strong case. It's early enough that it doesn't harm town too much, and it removes them from the possibility of being involved in late game decisions of which they will either not take part or be...worthless.
So having caught up. I still trust trake (trust being a relative term...I'm not CIing him or anything), I actually liked Pallid's posts. I am leaning towards trusting Ruse... but his quote case against Kilava seem s a bit easy. Like he senses the tide growing against her and wants to add momentum. I am on the fence about Ruse. Kalse is another worthless poster and I don't have a good feel or read. I would be willing to vote them in the same vein as I am voting Monok. Awesome if we lynch scum, not so bad if they are town, as how much help are they going to be end game. I don't trust Ryadd and he is definitely playing to the role of moderate posting scum. I am willing to vote him. Anthras, Denul Spite..still waiting to get an impression. Though I am leaning inno on Denul.
^In many ways I also agree with Pressen's ideas,
but would rather vote Kalse for the multiple reasons already mentioned by others. Also it may or may not answer some questions (like if he's scum, then it's nice to know Kilava is town - she at least makes cases and gets the thread talking, unlike other people).
Eeechh, probably goes without saying, but I am not leaning towards trusting Ruse. Not only does he seem convinced I'm scummy because I bother to write out my posts neatly and in a row (and hit "Add Reply" one after the other - oh the horror?), but because I'm gone all day too. Soo here I am. Posting at the same time I always post unless it's the weekend.

Another bad move by me, apparently, is a summary (despite the fact I've made a case and state my opinions), and the fact I pointed out it was silly for Mockra to vote for me based on flawed reasoning - the talk about avatars (additionally, I'm still not sure why my response to Mockra was over-the-top? I didn't vote him even, and he said it was OMGUS... so yeah). Oh, and the talk about avatars is yet another reason Ruse thinks I'm scummy. Le sigh.
vote Kalse
I'd be willing to switch to Monok as well. My eye is still on Kilava/Trake, but again, I agree with Pressen that Ruse seems to be taking advantage of the train on Kilava. Which is odd, since most of his posting seems to be about me.
