Sorry, but no. On the off-chance you truly are town, I'd do everything all over again the exact same way. Well maybe not counterclaim Uzi, I did not realize that two full cops was a sane possibility in a mini normal because for christ's sake that's an unbalanced game, even with some piddly modifiers. Then again if he claimed outright I might have breadcrumbed and let it fly.

You never play for the corner cases. If someone investigates guilty day 2, you lynch them. This doesn't get changed if they're accidentally a miller (which is why ReplacedIn clenched up when he claimed day 2), or if there's the possibility of a framer, or whatever. There's a signature about Nacho that he plays this game like a religious conservative. It's accurate, it's also a good way to play. All negative WIFOM comes from over-considering corner cases. The most simple explanation is almost always the correct one.

Which is also why I think the scum roleblocker was themselves roleblocked last night, by the by. A town jailkeeper to match a scum roleblocker is the simplest explanation. Because even with my opinion of the mini normal review committee there's no way in christ this got past them without some scum power.

I've been in FF's position before. This is EXACTLY how I reacted. I got guiltied as scum before and gave the fuck up, just like Chickadee did.

It's far more natural for town to be incredulous about a wrongful guilty on them.

And I have no knowledge of the setup. It could be odd/nonconsec roleblocker. It could be town rolestopper or jailkeeper. I'm just showing reasons why FF isn't lock scum.
Your reads on them are based around you thinking yesterday was TvS (re; FF & Chickadee), this means your reads on them are based around you viewing the world where FF is town and not the reverse and leads towards circular logic behind your reads on them. So again, if FF's scum here how does that change your reads on them? If you ignore FF"s alignment entirely what's your reads on the playerlist entirely?

I've also been 'framed' as a VT in a game I played less than 6 months ago, I didn't react in this manner at all, I understand players are different and I don't think it's implausible for town to react in the manner that FF's doing so, in fact I think his reaction (re; the overblown "lynch me" shtick) isn't an awful look. This however doesn't change the fact that the night actions point towards the slot being mafia, so if you think he's town you're going to need to provide a lot stronger reasoning for me. "He's not lockscum" and "He's town" are two very different things, the first I'd agree with you to a degree, the second I need more on.

I'll agree if there's a town jailkeeper they should out. But not a town rolestopper.

Macho and ascetic would point to at least one of those roles existing, with the presence of a scum blocker to prevent follow the cop.

If you maintain this vote I'm going to consider it a scum claim, so if you're town actually unvote because I'm planning on dedicating a fair bit of time to this today. Self-voting because you dislike how a singular player is treating you is never the solution at all. Again I've heard your point re; Arona and it's not a bad one, I want more reads from you and the whole "People won't listen to me until I'm dead" is unrealistic, dead players are almost never listened to.

Also GreyICE, not going to sieve through your ISO for it but did you ever allude to who you might have investigated at night yesterday?

What I'm asking effectively is who do you think mafia thought you'd be checking? (Or at least in what pool?)

Town rolestopper is such a high level of negative utility that I would hope that such a player would no-action every single night.

I mean maybe it interacts with my role to stop scum from RBing me... but this is just bad and the review committee should feel bad.

Its not a singular player man, and its not going to stop. Like I said, I am going to be nothing but a distraction. So I'm done with it. I've shown that I can come out of my tunnel and see the world around me and I was able to help lynch scum yesterday.

Grey has spent the better part of 2 days pushing bullshit that you guys are just eating up. I hope that he is scum and he pulls the wool over your eyes before he fucks you.

Hey maybe I could replace out and blame it on Grey and then everyone will town read me. Cause that fucking happened. Remember with MMM's replace out. Oh my god that was such a town replace.

Hey whatd he flip? Red? Fuck yeah.

If FF is scum, I'll reevaluate those slots like I always do. I play this game on preflips. Always have, always will. Need examples I can give you a million. I've been very right (see my best town performance in MAFIACEPTOIN) and it was me pushing these preflips. I've been very wrong. But we also have a scum flip to work with which gives extra confidence. Add in that chickadee stuff and it's pretty clear both are scum.

If you ignore FF"s alignment entirely what's your reads on the playerlist entirely?
Town:
iDanyboy, Grey, FF, Mulch

lean town:
you

null:
eevee

scum:
massive, arona

Then stop focusing on yourself and focus solely on reads FF, if you're town make a "Final reads and thoughts" post with lots of reasoning attached.

Literally anything is better than self-voting and complaining because that's just making me want to consider the possibility of you being town even less.

i claim weak doctor

I targeted mulch n1 and grey n2. This is why I wanted to lynch ff so badly yesterday. Because if he flipped red, grey was confirmed town and I could protect him. Obviously I didn't die, but if there's a loyal cop, macho Neapolitan, and weak doctor uhhhhh there has to be a scum rb

This is also why I entered the day phase the way I did. Because at first I was excited because I thought grey was confirmed town but then I began to doubt
