One of those two has to give us a scum lynch. We all three know this. So the three of us agree. Navy first as Titus and I suspect and if not then we lynch Alban like you suspected. So town block of awesome works together and compromises.
RC, you see this fucking shit right here? This is the kind of shit that makes me think that neither alban nor Navy are scum and that it's definitely fucking Titus.
I don't think Mathblade is dumb enough to blatantly ask to be given the win. I think this is just distancing by paying lip service to being willing to vote Alban here.
I think it's more likely that Alban is the scumpartner and they're going to find an excuse to have nothing to do with that wagon when it comes up like they've been doing the whole game.

I have an extremely solid track record of reading Titus and this falls squarely into her town game. I understand the scumread, but I don't agree with it.

I'm not him, so I can't really say. I'd assume because people think I'm obvtown.

Until he replaced in, I've been the only person actively crusading for the extremely necessary Math lynch. So unless I'm hard bussing Math (which I admittedly might have done, but probably wouldn't have, because there was at least one easy town lynch), then I'm town.

I'm also the only one who was advocating a logic-based lynch, rather than some random, shot-in-the-dark Doc lynch bullshit.

Alright that makes sense
I like the logic lynch thing. So the logic is okay.
But AS + RC = nothing that I townread, so I disagree that we should lynch in Navy/Alban

You say that Math isn't dumb nough to do it, but it's not actually dumb if you don't think they will do it. Then it's brash.

I can see your alban argument, I suppose. But then that's all the more reason to make sure Math dies now.

You'll have to forgive me if I don't trust your reads. Personally, I'd feel better with a Cop on Titus or you, because you are the two people that have the potential to wield the biggest influence and so the one's that I want to be most sure of. I'm also fine with people deciding to Cop me, but I seem to be so roundly townread that it would probably be a wasteful endeavor.

If you're playing town you're not coming in hot, you're coming in at basically absolute zero considering you've said shit about anyone who isn't me and I'm town.

The logic lynch is basically that Math is the ideal lynch candidate.

If Math flips scum, then it means we at least need to be wary of Titus. It also means we won't be in MyLo tomorrow.

If Math flips town, then it means that we confirm that Titus is town and the Doc pool gets smaller. Getting confirmed town out of it also means we would be an excellent Doc target. Again, currently 5 claimed Docs, with at least one being scum. Confirming Titus brings it down to 4: alban, RC, Navy, and I. Cops can go there to try to get a result. And since Math has already used their shot, they are expendable.

If we just lynch any Doctor, we'll still be down to a 4 person Doc pool, but we won't have a smaller Cop pool, so it'll be harder to find scum in there.

Reads more than alignment. As I've said many times earlier, I don't trust reads at all, period. I also don't fully trust your alignment, but that's because I'm paranoid about being duped by strong players.

Alright
I can compromise on Math for now I guess. I think a lot of people were scumreading HM for whatever reasons, so seeing the resolution of that might be nice.

Yes: A better fucking play. Find me one that offers greater

You're a Doc, so I don't think you are a likely NK target. If you do die, then it means that the Doc pool is smaller and we're one step closer to finding scum there. While your death would certainly not be ideal, I wouldn't say it would necessarily lose us the game. I'm not saying we have to check you, I'm just saying that I'm open to it and it would make me feel more comfortable. I fully acknowledge that it might not be the optimal move and we might have to check elsewhere.
