@Gazglum - Sorry I'm not living up to your expectations. Just not had quite the time to really drive the way I wanted. I don't think I've been hedging so much as maybe over-explaining my thoughts. When I'm sure, you'll know it.
I think I've probably been too focused on novice and Lewwyn. That's most likely scars from getting burned by Lewwyn last game I played. If it turns out he rolled scum, I want to make sure not to miss it and novice is always tough to pin a role because he's a bit enigmatic. I'm going to try and forget about them for a little while.
Sunrise is a fine lynch because he's not really playing but I just feel like maybe he's being propped up as a compromise candidate because we're all bored with voting for Qg and I think his lynch still gives us the most information. I dislike policy lynches in a place where we have real information but I'm not sure how much real information we have. Sunrise felt D1 scummy but since then has just felt like usual, super busy sunrise. That doesn't really mean anything. Do we want to lynch that guy or the guy half the town has thought scummy enough to vote multiple times at this point? I mean, if nothing else, if he wriggles off the hook we're just going to do this again tomorrow and I don't see how that's remotely productive.
I've got some dirt on my shoulder, can you brush it off for me?

Then sell me on why not, Gazglum.

Note that he started his "wake up town" posts when Jabbz and Q were the main candidates for lynch, both are on most people's scum leans. Lewwyn
I'm the one who put Jabbz up as the main candidate on D2. I'm the only reason Jabbz was even on the radar that day. Wake up came before Jabbz too. Don't mix up who was doing what.

Qg was at the top of the lynch early day 2. Then we moved away from that for the same reasons people are saying we should move away from it now. Do you think maybe, just maybe the reason QG was on the block in the first place on both days is that everyone in town thinks he's scum, because he is scum? But then everyone gets cold feet because he's on the block all day again?
If Qg is village then yes I think novice is scum. Possibly jabbz too. and I'd need to think again.

Ok.
First, I can confirm that Q is super busy, and we know he signed up as a sub. So there is some reason for his poor contribution.
Second, he has been making dumb mistakes. From my own brief experience as scum, I never read the thread more carefully than I did then. Q likes being scum and also reads carefully. I don't think dumb mistakes like who Zak was voting, or confusing his own ability, make sense for Scum Q. I think scum are more careful, not less.
Third, Novice has been on Q the hardest, and I don't trust Novice. He has not been looking at the whole board.
Fourth, Q's angry post just struck me as real. Well done if you fooled me Q. I don't think its a yardstick we should always use, but I think we have a nice community, and we like each other. Faking that kind of anger strikes me as something Q wouldn't do. I could be wrong on that, and if I am, I hope you are hanging your head in shame Q.
Finally, as Dtay has said much better than me, its suspicious how long Q has sat at the top without his 'scum buddies' trying to help him out. (Unless I'm doing that right now, WIFOM if you will!). Day 2 was lazy enough that scum would have been able to easily keep their team out of danger, but Q was in danger right until the end. Day 3 there has been a slow accumulation of votes on him without scum shoving forward their compromise candidate until (possibly) just now in Sunrise.
I asked my gut Gaspar, and my gut said that Scum Q doesn't make sense today. My gut also says that one of Lewwyn and Novice are scum.

I'm leaving for DC in about 20 minutes and I'm not sure if I'll be back before deadline. I wish today fell on any other day.

I agree fully with this.

But this is pretty compelling.
We're not going to get a lynch on Lewwyn, Gazglum. Not right now, in this village. Plus I wouldn't mind getting the day plus another NK to get a better sense of what's going on with he and novice. So who else do you like enough as a target?
