Alright, I've thought it through and GGGs logic is perfectly sound, there no denying that. Girly exists in three states right now (same as everyone, really). She is either host, turned, or town.
If you think she is host, then vote to lynch her
If you think she is turned, then vote to lynch other and GA kills her
If you think she is town, then vote to lynch other and GA investigation is clean
So GGG is right that turned / unturned doesn't really matter. All that matters is if you think she is host or not.
I re-read the spore reveal section and here are the posts from Girly and HG immediately afterwards:

That's too obvious. I wasn't worried because I have no reason to save myself.
hockeyguy15, why don't you have the agent investigate Oling? He had the spore first.

Doesn't seem very likely. First words out of my mouth would be that I didn't turn.

However, His 2nd post which I quote above convinced me and if that's the direction we're going. I have to give out the information now.

When I read through that, I tend to believe Girly. I would assume the hosts already had a discussion about what to do if the spore came to one of them. Her initial responses just doesn't read that way to me. It seems like she was caught off guard and didn't know how to respond immediately. Then, after getting some harsh criticism from HG and further posts from Oling, she realizes its best to say she was not turned and is willing to move the spore as directed. To me, that reads as she did not anticipate receiving the spore, which is something I think the hosts would have discussed prior and been ready for.
Therefore, following GGGs logic, I should not vote for Girly as I don't believe she is scum. The best option is to vote for someone else. As I've indicated before, I don't like Timbo's vote on Active and he's the only confirmed townie at this point. He also really criticized me for my post last night about trying to think everything through; rather than trying to help my thought process.
Vote: Timbo
