OK, I couldn't find the froth I remembered. It must have read worse when I was going through it the first time and reacting with, "Me? ME?!?!" :-)

And someone even pointed out that ignoring my statement might be the most suspicious of all. There is something in that (though ghug pipes up later with a good reason to have been silent at first.)

Anyway,

##VOTE snowy801

It came down to one observation while re-reading the last 4-5 pages. It was his "yikers!" post, quoting an argument. Just bubbling it to the top and keeping his head down feels like trying to avoid becoming a focus of attention while posting and getting people focused on someone specific.

Not being noticed, being active enough to not be suspicious seems like an obvious bias for Mafia. There is no reason for Town to fake out as being Mafia, but there is a reason to not appear to be doing something that Mafia is typically thought to do. But that was subtle, and the bandwagon was there, and more than others, he didn't seem so much to be trying to deduce as mumbling, "Look at the guy with the ass hat!" and then fading into the background. As good a reason as any I see at the moment.
Can you take this a step further? What do you think a scum snowy would have been trying to accomplish?
Low-content and low-profile pushing an argument against a specific player. That's a thin argument, but I hadn't seen a better one. (Just catching up on the thread.)

That's not taking it a step further. What's he trying to accomplish? Why does he think it's going to work?

Join me on Yoak then snowy.

I don’t know if I’ll be around EOD. My g/f has just set up a new business and they are short staffed so I’m helping out.

I mean maybe?

Still not sure what to make of that nonsense but I am leaning toward your interpretation

@Chaqa, Bona, Damo.

Why Snowy over Yoak? I’m leaning scum on snowy too, but it’s based on Yoak being scum. Can we kill him first?
