Going back to that "other thing" I was looking for between you and Shalmoa, that came largely from the idea that Shalmoa appeared to very much be trying to just kinda pick someone to hyperfocus on a given day, trying to dominate as much of the day space as possible to prevent people from looking elsewhere. It wasn't as much of a problem with the conversation with you, but I think the act of it happening twice is far more telling than the severity of it. Pair that with what I still believe to be a worse self-pres vote and I honestly think Shalmoa is just the better vote here.
More concise summary, the stuff between Hugh/Shalmoa is weird and convoluted by the nature of the question Shalmoa posed and used to dominate the conversation, but the stuff between yourself/Shalmoa is far more telling since it's using another somewhat questionable means of dominating the conversation (using the Executioner read as a means to determine scum equity, which seems rather silly to me).
