I'm not going to drop a vote on you just yet because I think others should come in and talk, but I am pretty much convinced that there is no way town would make that joke.

Yes. Though I was only told I had been gifted it like, immediately after the lynch happened, and was told nothing else as to whether it was used up.

So you got it after the lynch, but during twilight? Can you ask bowmore if it's still active, or has been used up?

I feel like this is important to figure out today, before people are lynched/killed.

Ok, here's where I stand; I lied about having a cop claim on CPig. I have no reads in this game, and needed to generate something to make a read on. If you have a problem with that, lynch me. I'm pretty sure we're not in LYLO.

If it wasn't for CPig's role PM comment just now, I honestly feel pretty solidly town on CPig. That's what I was testing, people's reaction to a not town cop result claimed on a town player. And I like Murmur and Max's reactions. There's another facet here; two people have claimed one-shot BPs, one claims it was used up last night. Unless they are scumbros, the chances for scum to fakeclaim the exact role given out to a town player is small enough that I'm going to ignore it. which in turn makes me think they're telling the truth.

So if you combine all of that, CPig as a one-shot BP who got hit by scum last night explains the lack of a NK, but doesn't explain why he and not Max/Viva was the target. Because one of Viva/Max is scum, and they're avoiding killing a scumbro because of the lovers thing. If Max's question to bowmore comes back that he still has the BP, CPig's telling the truth and scum avoided a double kill last night. Hence, we lynch the lovers today and go into tomorrow with 4 players, 1 of which is scum. If Max says that his BP was used up, we lynch CPig. I do not expect the second to happen.

i think Viva's the scum in the lovers duo, and I think her scumbro is DHD. I've liked Murmur's reaction today and I don't see f_v and Viva as scumbros. So there's my scumteam choice, DHD and Viva.

Lying and throwing a vote down was dangerous, but otherwise, I'm with you on what we should know based on if my BP is still active, unless someone else jumps in and claims doc or another BP.

If I still have the BP then I 100% think we should lynch Viva (or me if you really feel like it, it doesn't matter at the end of the day) also, BTW.

Lol forever at pig and the role pm thing.

Ditto on what most others have said but I did wanna point out that Byers might be faking if there's 3 scum. Cause then they only need one mislynch to win I think.

I agree it needs to be pig or Byers cause I don't see a likely mechanics explanation for a flawed result.

I'll vote in the afternoon when I have time to focus.

I went back to look at the thread, and I'm feeling more confident in this call. Look at some of these posts:

DuckHuntDog posted:

The sheer effort Viva has put behind defending Opop doesn't strike me as scummy; regardless of the flip, I don't think scum are going to put that much effort into defending Opop here.

WM has been really vague about Opop and waffling on any sort of alignment call, which I think is odd, but I don't know about alignment yet. I don't get the FV vote at all.

Max has been defending Opop, but only putting in a token effort on it. Could be scum, or just more interested in being right than persuasive.

DuckHuntDog posted:

Looking back at this from yesterday right before the switch to Rarity when there were three targets with about equal votes, two of the votes on Exact have now flipped town, and the only one that moved off was Rarity self hammering. Exact and Max moved off Viva onto Rarity, and Exact was a target up to that point. I don't see Viva being scum on this vote unless it is with Exact or Max. I am going to reread those two.

VivaNova posted:

DHD- I had to reread his posts for this list, very forgettable but came off better on reread. Votes Opop early on the scumslip, also questions ES's logic before it's cool. Also cased Hal for legitimate reasons D2, which again was one of the few independent thoughts that day. He votes Rarity near deadline and apparently forgets about Hal, but that's a thing that happens. Hasn't posted since. I'm gonna say he's better than average.

It's all connecting two unflipped players and overall I think that Viva's play plus the apparent lack of scum targeting the lovers means Viva should get our vote today, but when she flips scum all of this because more reasons DHD is the third scumbro.

Narrow it down to CPig or Byers, that's all, takes scum through their endgame and to a win, and by waffling you can commit to one case today and when one of us flips town, go after the other tomorrow. You left reasons for CPig as scum, for me as scum, and peaced out without making a commitment either way and with no sense of thinking about things.

If it is Viva, I think she might be teammates with Max. Max avoided talking much about Opop D1, moved off Viva at an opportune time to avoid her lynch, and then sort of dropped her the next day.

Is there anything corroborating them being lovers that I don't remember?
