I don't see a lot of flip-flopping in those quotes...I don't agree with his conclusions but basically all of them are some variation of "krab/mutley is town."
No, Sven had that slot as Town at the very beginning of the game, but after that, he makes it pretty clear that he doesn't have a Town read on that slot but he still doesn't want to lynch it regardless. He gives us a million and one excuses to explain his hesitation to vote for that slot. You view that as indecisive Town, but I'm more inclined to interpret it as Scum who can't keep his story straight.
I think the biggest noggin-scratcher in that wall of quotes I posted is his drastic change in opinion from post 1527 to 1695. He goes from saying that Mutley is "a good vote" to flat-out refusing to vote for that good vote. I mean, really?
And, of course, I have to bring up his "Oh, I didn't know we needed a majority to lynch" nonsense. There is no way he is that stupid. He had to have known that a majority was needed to lynch and he just said that to cover his butt for when the no-lynch occurred. (Sven, if you're Scum, then I apologize for calling you an idiot before.) Needless to say, my Town read on Sven has severely diminished.
Aside from Malcolm, I'd say that Sven, Mutley, and Goat are my top suspects at the moment. ArcAngel and Fuzzyman need some scrutiny too. So many scummy people, so little time.

Do you suspect Sven of being Scum as well? If not, how would that explanation be valid?

They get to keep Mutley around for at least another day so we can spend two days lynching him instead of one. If Mutley is Town, there is no way in hell that Scum is killing him because he makes such good mislynch bait.

The fact that he didn't get lynched yesterday should give you the answer you're looking for.
What?
