Slorange is still townie in my book, just on the mechanics argument. You can consider me with Schazer in that he probably just wouldn't have given any information to anyone at all if he were scum because townies with information make informed lynches. And pulling some elaborate lie suggests Slorange is a much cleverer chessmaster than he's acting. I'm not even considering them for scum at the moment.
I honestly don't know how easy it is to say whether there's scum in lurkers or actives right now. The lurkers are pretty much getting left alone, but I think lurkers hurt more than you realize. The game ends when scum can outvote the town, and there's no scenario in which town can win. If half the townies are just lurking, they're as good as non-existent. Mislynching townie lurkers lowers that hard limit to lose, but having townie lurkers presents the soft limit. And with any luck, we've got at least one mafia hiding amongst the lurkers, who we can flush out into activity to be picked at.
Sorry for the lack of citations in this post. (I don't really have time atm to do another post analysis. Seedy's looks seedy, but it might just need a couple paragraph breaks.) To make up for it, I'll go ahead and bite the bullet on my post and
