I actually have a theory on that too. Check it out:

Ghosts

Death Eaters
E+ - Hufflepuff/Syltherin
Ecco - Gryffindor/Gryffindor

One member of each team, and only one, has a fakeclaim whose House matches their actual identity, and especially notably, neither one is that team's godfather. I think they're hat-godfathers and any other discrepencies found by the hat will indicate scum.

Ahahaha Andy what the HELL. You expect us to believe zzyzx was nailing scum from day 4 and you didn't think to give him your bulletproof untrackable item until night 7?!

How many times do I have to name drop the invisibility cloak in my post, and straight up say I don't trust night 7 results, before you realize I'm trying to protect you? I saw you go in under the cloak, but unlike Leith, you didn't claim to have been doing anything else that night, so Leith was either hasted up, lying, or impersonated, any 3 of which would make the "Leith" who targeted zzyzx the killer. I thus assumed you were some sort of town protective role and was trying as hard as I possibly could to signal INVISIBILITY CLOAK I CAN SEE THROUGH THEM and NIGHT 7 I TARGETED ZZYZX AGAIN so that I wouldn't have to out you as a town power role but you just barged right through it.

And now based on the fact you could have given the bulletproof roleblock proof cloak to our claimed cop at any time and only tried to do the night he just happened to die I'm kicking myself for putting myself on the line for that - because I firmly believe launch all liars and I DID leave this out so you can't trust me, but now it was pointless.

I'm voting for you honestly I'm suspicious of everyone. Just on my night actions it's:

Capn Andy for not giving the cloak up to zzyzx and targeting zzyzx (I didn't know that he had that option)
Leith for being seen visiting zzyzx
You for claiming you killed Liger but me only seeing Dexanth go in

And based on his posting style / scum slip (maybe) I'd go Hum, I'd go PQ for coasting and trying to push the Leith theory, hell I'd almost vote Kash just because I don't know wtf is going on with that role and posting and I don't like it.

The cloak is gone. I specifically asked TF what would happen if I gave it to zzy and he was nightkilled and/or roleblocked that night. I wouldn't have been nearly as forthcoming if it was still in the game.

There's no way you're scum with PQ. The only scum group with potentially two members remaining is the death eaters. You, PQ, and E+ all entered the RoR together. It absolutely beggars belief that an organized scumgroup would send three (potentially all they have) members into the room together.

Does anyone want to help me make sense of the nightkill flavors? If we assume flavor is specific to faction, then ghosts strangle and DEs use the killing curse, since miku ate an avada kedavra and the ghosts obviously wouldn't be killing their own dudes. The nightkills look like this:

Night 1: Two AKs
Night 2: AK, shot
Night 3: Strangle
Night 4: Strangle, AK, shot
Night 5: Two strangles
Night 6: Two AKs
Night 7: AK

If flavor is specific to faction, that's a lot of haste potions. If it's not, this entire line of speculation is pointless.

Here's a theory: You weren't paying much attention to the game and you hosed up your original claim, so you made a different claim that is inconsistent with the first. Now you're throwing your hands up and saying "gee guys! I'm sooooo confused!"

What is the big leap? I know mine was a one-shot kill, and LIGER, the guy who wanted to kill a bunch of people, only used his once on one of his targets.

I 100% without a doubt know that my wand was not where I left it, this has been claimed all game as Leith's ability. Leith said he targeted me with it. I'm willing to entertain the idea that Leith is a deatheater and lied about his ability (I said this earlier) and that his last remaining partner targeted me instead, but that still implicates Leith, not me.

I mean if you're questioning whether Spoonsy and I made eye contact that night I tried to drop some hints at him to figure things out, based on the flavor of him appearing in a flash of light.

I was going to examine yesterday assuming Amni and xopods were unconfirmed mason-buddies (which would explain the hammer before xopods could more fully claim) but now I want to see if you can shine some more light on this before I spend any hours digging through.

I mean, yeah, I do. I don't want to put words in his mouth but Spoonsy started day 1 with a soft roleclaim. Seeing that, and knowing he was town, I'd want to see how it played out, then after seeing what was up he decided to claim having determined he could shine light on spoonsy, amni, and you all at once.

I have no idea why Spoonsy saw me the same night he says he saw Amni. My best theory was that his patronus was more of a "light up everything around" showing targets, targets of targets, etc. I referenced this here:

Spoonsy from what I can tell never references this although he is comfortable outing everyone else who visits a room.

I don't think we know anything about what LIGER did on N3 or any visitors he might have had, so this one is inconclusive

Night 4: Officer Liger, Dexanth targeted him, figured Dex was a town vig. No other results except my potion was gone.

I Played this result cool in thread and simply said “happy to vote ecco” since it was already clear Ecco was done and there was no need for me to claim to ensure it.
This wouldn't make sense either, Ecco knew zzxyz was roleblocked and she wasn't the roleblocker. There were 2 night kills that night so it seems unlikely that the DE would double target him.

Night 6: Watched zzyzx, Amni targeted him. Assumed Amni was another scum roleblocker so I pushed him really hard that day. The flip really threw me.
Amni had no spells and never claimed to use an item on zzyzx

In fact it seems like one of the results from each night is wrong.
N2 you saw merk visit KCW which jives with what merk claimed, but Spoonsy wasn't at KCW's room, he was at DBD's room so you saw someone else.
N4 you saw LIGER get targeted, but it wasn't Dex it was me.
N5 you only saw one person, since zzyzx was roleblocked and Ecco was not the roleblocker you didn't see Ecco, you saw Mikujin
N6 again you only saw one person, zzyzx was roleblocked, you saw Mikujin
N7 you saw Andy and Leith, this is consistent with Andy's claim and zzyzx died, but Leith claim's to have targeted me so whoever you saw killed zzyzx OR Andy killed him

Either that or you are the worst liar I've ever seen in Mafia and my brain has to make sense of why you would be so bad at lying.

One additional thing I noticed, this seems inconsistent:

So the reason I didn't call this out is because I'm genuinely unsure if I wore the cloak on my trip to zzy's room. The flavor doesn't specifically say that I did, but that's not proof that I didn't. Obviously I wasn't wearing it on the way back. I figured a watcher would know better than I would -- TT's claim specifically said he saw through cloaks, so he'd see me either way. In retrospect, though, if he's telling the truth and I was wearing the cloak, I'm drat sure not wearing it on the way back. Which means TT sees me walk up to zzy's door cloaked, take the cloak off, and walk back without it. What, in that case, could I have possibly done except dropped off the cloak? Why would you think I'm "some sort of town protective role"?

TT is wrong about so drat much. I think my callout was right and he just head-faked me right the hell out of my shoes with that response. If he'd seen me and just wanted me to stay quiet, all he needed to say was that he saw Leith and me target zzy but he had reason to believe my action was protective. Hell, I'd have even confirmed his results as trustworthy!
