Ok I want to work this out because I see people say this on other forums and I think it is very dumb.
The only reason that being voted serves as incentive for a quiet person to talk is if they are lurking on purpose.
If they're town, they would not be lurking on purpose, so you voting them doesn't do anything. They'll post when they can.
If they're scum, then what do you learn from them talking? How does the thing that scum says help move the game forward? Unless the things they say are scummy, but you unvoted Chaos.
Sorry, maybe I did not explain this very well. I wanted to get him to talk AND see what he would say, specially about HS. I was worried that HS+Chaos are scum buddies.
HS's vote is non-committal, easy to remove later, and you can think of my vote as double reaction test. Actually, thinking about it, the fact that HS hesitated with Drone is worrying me again about this.
Chaos response seems like a legitimate case on HS on the surface. If that is the case then I don't think Chaos and HS is a thing because that would basically kill HS at this stage. I think it would be too early to throw your partner under the bus like that. That's why I unvoted and said I want to reread all this first anyway. I need to think this through.

Anyway, this isn't as important as you responding to
1594.
You said that you saw Arc as mediating between two people, which is a town thing to do. Who was Arc mediating between.?
They were mediating between 2F and HS earlier. Also the way they are talking to 2F seems pro-town to me. The mediation between HS and TF could have been a ploy to get votes of HS, but HS really wanted to kill TB/Arc earlier, again I think it would be too early to bus so aggressively. If HS is partner with Chaos or Arc then they would be playing very badly.
