With 7 alive, it's at worse 5v2 and at best 6v1.
Let's go with the worst case scenario. If we don't lynch Garmr or DS and they are scum pulling a gambit, tomorrow would be 3v2 which is still winable. If Garmr and DS are town Mason's, we don't lynch either today, and we don't hit scum today, tomorrow would still be a 3v2. If we hit scum today it confirms Garmr and DS as mason's. That's a risk I'll take 100% of the time since not lynching Garmr or DS today isn't an auto loss in the worst case scenario. They are off the table for lynch candidates today. Shit shouldn't even be brought up again today unless it's to distract from finding scum from the remaining 4 candidates. If they are scum, it will be fairly obvious.
----------------------------------------
I said NJ dropped knowledge only scum would have. I made it pretty obvious that I saw it as a scum slip.
Now, the NK. Why did scum not target me to try and frame NJ if he's town or why didn't NJ target me to get one less person to push his lynch today? Is NJ so maniacal as scum that he targeted RM last night to make my thoughts go where they are now? I don't think so. I think I'm alive and NJ is alive because scum thought we'd both go after each other after what went down yesterday. My gut is pretty sold on this. Prolly cuz NJ hasn't posted yet and I was able to take an objective look at things. I may be over thinking this but, well, that's what this game is all about I guess.
----------------------------------------
If there are 2 scum left, the mason's are mason's, and I'm right about why NJ and I are alive, this almost HAS to be one of the remaining scum. If there is only 1 scum left, and the previous is still true, DGB is less likely (imo) but still a likely candidate.
----------------------------------------
Why was the hood left alone by scum? That is what I'm asking myself. The answers are both WIFOM. If there are 2 scum left, scum is almost confirmed to be in the hood I think. If there is only 1 scum left, then it can go either way. Scum could be hiding in the remaining hood or scum could be leaving the hood alone so that we lynch it.

My lynch candidates today are:
DGB
Nero
TDA
In no particular order at this time.
