Question #74: I have removed a "Scapegoat" Token from my field to Special Summon of "Diabellstar the Black Witch" from my hand and activated its 1st Trigger Effect and Set "Sinful Spoils of Subversion - Snake-Eye" from my Main Deck to the field directly, then activated that Spell. My opponent is insisting that by saying: "No Set card can be activated the turn its Set unless something says you can.", and they stopped playing, my opponent is correct or incorrect about what they are saying right now?

You can activate the Normal Spell the turn you Set it with Diabellstar, but you have to follow normal activation rules (open gamestate during your Main Phase). What I'm not sure about is the ability to send a token to Summon Diabellstar.

You bring up a good point. How I will be sure about that, of sending that Token (by removing it from field) is valid for that's Summon or not. Judges are not talking with me anymore since my last treatment of them.

Yes, because those aren't Normal or Special Summons

Not sure if this question has been answered for you already, but you cannot use a Token to Special Summon "Diabellstar the Black Witch" with its own unclassified effect. Sending to the GY is effectively the cost for Diabellstar, and since Tokens cannot be sent to a specific location for costs, it would not be legal to Special Summon it by removing a Token.
