I'm still not sold on Moonin scum, even after his siding with Iffrita. I have an easier time justifying the neighborization claim timing with him as town than as scum, I'm still inclined to think he got hit with a roleblock given what's been said which gives him a little bit more leeway with me, and looking through his posting history, I just couldn't bring myself to agree with Mala's assessment about his constantly lacking an opinion, as much as I now know it was genuinely what she thought.
So instead I think I will do this.
##Vote: XixHis game-long lacking content has been documented before, but knowing Iffrita was scum and Miya is very likely town, there is also his actions after Miya's initial claim, with
this post standing out in particular. Assuming Miya to be town (which I think is a pretty safe assumption), scum would have known something was up the instant she made her initial declaration, and would have needed to start planning out how to deal with it immediately. Take a look at this:
And if what I suspect is true, then Miya's asking for a claim and Iffrita's claim are believable to me. This doesn't indicate anything for alignment, as roles are not related to alignment at all.
This really, really reads like scum still trying to plan for how to deal with the Miya situation, but not wanting to get caught with their pants down by being around when the initial claim happened but not saying anything at all. He doesn't elaborate on what he suspects, he throws in the easy line about how the claim does nothing for alignment (as much as Orwen's flip makes this slightly harder to really rub in, it's still unhelpful noise), and there's no real elaboration on anything. It comes off as flustered scum just putting a couple of lines out there so they look like they're analyzing the situation, as opposed to town intrigued by the conflict and wanting to get to the bottom of it (see Mala's grilling for a good example of this).
The post also comes after several instances of Xix focusing on other things, which I find odd as I'd think what had just happened would have been jarring enough to focus on quicker than he did, or to write more than he did about it.
His absensce from most of the rest of the day doesn't help at all, obviously.
