I am still puzzled by the TR you have on LA tbh. Just bc she decided to vote someone you SR doesn't mean she's town nor that your SR on EJ is correct.
I am analyzing LA's play via her claim and claimed action, and you quoted the post where I summed it all up. Is short, nothing adds up on what she said. Not her confusion about what her role is, and certainly not the reasoning for picking her night target.
If she though she was a Watcher, the last person she'd want to WATCH is the claimed VT. Period. Nobody was ever going to shoot Carca on N1, N2 or even N3. Literally ANY other slot would have been a better target for the Watcher.
Now add she said Carca was a "claimed PR" and you know it's a scum slot fumbling for what to say.
LA's "emotional speech" about her sucking and deserving to be lynched doesn't score points on my register AT ALL. In fact, I don't get affected by AtE much. It's a ploy to win everybody's compassion. Nothing more and nothing less.
Now, the next suspect would still be Percy, but it's both conditional and circumstantial. For Carca (Percy) to be Scum; LA has to be. If LA was Town then I have no case on Carca. My thought process is "why would Scum!LA go out of her way to defend Town!Carca", and this is where the circumstantial part comes in: Scum may indeed have a Vanilla Cop, and since they already know who Scum are it is identical to a Town Neapolitan. If they checked Carca last night they don't want to push her today as she is no threat to them (LA even gets to pocket Carca with that defense), AND they already know her role. They'd want to push someone else in hopes for a TPR claim/reveal.
Purr is actually a stronger Sr for me than Carca is. I can't quite explain it, but if you try to see it my way and assume (hypothetically from your PoV) that LA is scum, then try to reread the whole D2 action I think you'll see Purr as a SR and independently than either of LA/Carca
I'm not exactly clearing tw, but I have nothing damning against him. He's just not in the mood, and he's sick so I'll give him some slack.
So. let me go back to LA: She's SCUM. And Purr is SCUM. I dunno who their third might be yet, but give me time and I'll probably figure it out. Right now I already have 2 lynch targets in my pool, and I can only vote one of them today even, so let me worry about the third Scum when I've confirmed at least one of these two.
