I *really* want to check out the case for whether or not we have another scum to deal with in the ER slot or not. I currently townread that slot, but it's dangerous to be in lylo and not know it.
Shos, PLEASE try to follow this thought process, because I've tried to explain it to you about a million times now.
IT IS IRRELEVANT IF ER IS SCUM.
If ER is scum, we'll know it for a FACT on Day 8, when the game is still on going. The reason for this is thus:
D6: We lynch one of {ank, plag, titus} (assume we correctly lynch, because if we miss,)the game can just end on the spot
N6: They NK one of {lmp, shos, ika}
D7: We lynch one of remaining from {ank, plag, titus}
N7: They NK one of remaining from {lmp, shos, ika}
D8: Remaining players: {ER, one of {ank, plag, titus}, one of {lmp, shos, ika}}
No matter which remaining players are alive from those sub groups, ER would be the only player who could be scum. All of {ank, plag, titus} were on my sensor, so only 2 of them could be scum. All of the players in our sensor are cleared. ER would therefore be guaranteed scum.
And note that the scum MUST kill from our pool, because to shoot outside of our pool is to give us the game automatically.
Wasting time/energy/brain-cycles on whether or not ER is scum is very unlikely to produce any useful info. The only possible value would be to look for theoretical connections between ER and ank/plag/titus. Which you can do right now anyways just assuming that ER is scum.
^^^^bolded my point. if we're in lylo we need to be 10 times more careful. if we're not, we can have ika as careless as he wishes.
But also, we can, if we're still worried, lynch ER first, and take care of the problem. that way we'll *know* we're in lylo tomorrow, and if we're in lylo now, we're good.
