I don't necessarily think Andres is scum - he could be one of the initial players of the colleges though. What is interesting to note is that Montmorency and Ironside both voted for the Shield of purity to go to Ironside in the initial phase. Given that we now know that Monty was the wielder of a the Aeromancers, it strongly suggests that Ironside is their master. Perhaps ninja was following a similar analysis with Andres, I don't know. His posts certainly seem strange though.

We don't know how many scum players the game started with, but it's unlikely they would have known each other. The most likely hypothesis at this stage is that one of them hopped on the khaan Shield of Purity bandwagon to avoid suspicion.

My suspicion currently falls upon Riedquat - he's been keeping pretty low. So a pressure vote: Vote: Riedquat.
