Default Scrape and rub hunting

Last week I noticed a new scrape near one of my stands. I decided to hunt that stand this weekend and didn't have much luck. I was walking the opposite edge of the property on my way out last night and noticed a new rub line that I hadn't before. I'm at school now and won't be back out til wednesday.

My question is, under which sign would I be more likely to cross paths with a big buck? I know that being out of commission til wednesday will lessen my chances, but once I'm back at it where should I go? Should I hunt my existing stand by the scrapes, or set up my climber near the rubs. Or should I do neither and try by my known paths?

Any insight into these situations would be greatly appreciated. Gotta get my last minute game plan together!
