Day 3 - it was 7-5 mrk over ECF until PE interrupts the four-player mrk vote train for ECF, followed by devo's switch to ECF, then peanut finally clinches it at 8-6 ECF.
Day 4 - 2 votes for peanut, then squiggs switched to mrk and timbo follows, then after you vote for PE it is:
PE - 3 (you, me, biz)
me - 2 (Oling, peanut)
mrk - 2 (squiggs, timbo)
devo - 1 (pux)
HG - diss voted, then unvoted
So then mrk voted for me to bring me into a tie with PE, followed shortly by PE voting for me to take me into the lead. HG had also voted for mrk between them for a 3-way tie before PE voted me into the lead.
Eventually mrk, PE, and peanut held their vote for me until the tie happened. IMO at this time they were not being too vocal in campaigning for me just in case biz or oling had voted for mrk. (could oling have been turned by then and not known which of us were scum, and played it safe by letting the tie happen?)
I can see biz working with mrk elsewhere in the game, including day 3, and maybe the late vote was intentional on day 4, but I think that is not as likely as PE working to prevent mrk's lynch. HG, on the other hand, has not been working with mrk as far as I can tell (that does not necessarily indicate that he is certainly town, but I doubt scum would have voted for mrkaj rather than at least a third party on day 4)

This is the main reason I have Hockeyguy in the town camp. His relentless attacks on mrkajz don't seem likely from a scum to me. It's been too pushy to be staged, imo, although if GGG feels HG is the best choice I'll defer to his judgement. I'm an engineer, and I've not always been adept at judging whether people are angry or joking, so if GGG is confident...
The lack of heat on HG15 and the townie cred he should have got for this are what makes me suspect him as a potential turned, as he might have been a good spore target.
That's pretty much how I feel about squiggs. I thought he was suspicious, but his drag-it-out brawl with oling doesn't feel staged to me. So since oling was turned squiggs is town. However, I think if we assume the scum controlled the spore last night squiggs would have been where they sent it. Strong player who just got a huge boost of townie cred.
So I have HG and squiggs as probable town who may be turned. We can't have more than 2 turned, obviously.
