What are you even talking about? Isn't "werewolf" just another name for "mafia"? The terminology might be a little different but I thought the idea was the same. Is it not?
Hm, I'm not quite sure where to begin explaining since some of this may be obvious to you, but:
There can be more than one scumteam or anti-town entity in games. It is somewhat common to see a mafia team and also a Serial Killer. In that case there are 2 anti-town factions and all 3 are competing against each other.
In normal games, werewolves are functionally the same as mafia (except with different flavor). It is possible that it is just werewolves in this game and no mafia. (Actually that is an interesting thought). I am assuming that there are 2 different scum teams though with 1-2 members each, one being the mafia and one being werewolves. Jingles flip + my role PM makes it very clear that either there is Mafia in the game or some roles in the game are purely here to confuse people.

When I said I think Flubber is more likely mafia than Werewolf, that has a couple implications. Firstly, it means he didn't know Brood was scum. Part of your case on him involves him fencesitting on Brood in a way you think was intended to take a non-stance on a buddy whilst avoiding pushing him. This IS plausible and I see why you think it, but my gut thinks that Flubber is not on Brood's team if he is scum. I can explain that later, but continuing on: Secondly, If there ARE two anti-town teams, they will each get a kill every night. It could be beneficial to try and aim for a hypothetical 2nd werewolf so we are only dealing with 1 anti-town kill every night if we do succeed.
Now there was only one kill last night which could mean a couple things...
1) Its only werewolves and no mafia - my role (and probably others) are red herrings.
2) There was only one werewolf and this is 6:2:1 or 7:1:1
3) A kill was stopped or both teams killed jingle.
Honestly I don't know what is more likely. Common sense would indicate that 5:2:2 in a micro is insane unless its stacked with power and there is likely investigative things on both scumteams. Its possible Its just 2 werewolves and a lot of this is just there to confuse.
