The Thor/Glass exchange doesn't really interest me. Nothing in there points to either of them being scum. Just one comment to Thor.

Information saturation is not a linear process. The amount of information grows exponentially as there is more than one way to respond (including a lack of response) to every bit of pre-existing information. You could try to quantify the difference in information saturation on page 3 and page 10, but it's a pointless exercise in terms of scumhunting: it draws attention away from alignment-relevant analysis.
People who say my case on MrBump doesn't hold any water are probably missing that my case on Bump was that he wasn't voting where it would've stimulated discussion better. Fungrus' alignment is irrelevant insofar as MrBump is concerned. If Fungrus is scum, Bump's reason to vote randomly could've been uneasiness at voting a scumpartner; if Fungrus is town, the reason could've been a lack of interest in scumhunting and thus a lack of insight into proactive voting.
A good counterargument would've been that Bump is simply inexperienced and doesn't see the difference between optimal and sub-optimal votes when regarding something else than actual scumminess. But apparently I couldn't spark even that kind of response, just general confusion. Eh.
By the way, I've kind of missed the other points against Bump amidst trying to make sense of the exchange between Glass and Thor. I don't really have the time at the moment to go back again, could someone summarize?

Bluh. You should know better than to say things like this. You do
not
analyze your own interactions unless you have an ulterior motive. This just looks like you're trying to give a template to analyzing the exchange between you and Glass.
VOTE: Thor
Flay: why is Bump's "remind me never to make a joke again" comment scummy?
