Pretty much gave them. Looking at Gamma and Hunter hard. If not them or need a 3rd, add CSPVG. Could add Darko to that list, but that's irrelevant now. I don't buy oldwino as scum like others. I don't see scum accidentally name-dropping a name that was scum last game so early like that. I figure they, of all people, would be pouring over the roles from last game (not that Town shouldn't). I actually take the "mistake" as more of a Town slip. It's not a free pass, but I have him a town lean with Lift solidly in my Town camp.

Also, being real for a second, claiming wouldn't have exactly guaranteed our survival Today or Tomorrow in a lynch since both our alignments can't be verified.
Assuming both players are town, as scum I would have been tempted to leave them alive N1. Obviously WIFOM, but still.
Oh, you're still going with "Darko wanted Lift's name because he's an evil 3rd party". :D
In my experience in mafia games so far,
"naive" RW= scum RW.

I get it now and it makes total sense. I'm an idiot and I apologize for how this all went down because now I see that how you played this was the only way you could. I wish you had just told us before your lynch though because I think a no lynch would have been better than lynching you. We might of even had time to persue another lynch.

Didn't consider lovers until Meda's 279 when she said she killed you. I wouldn't expect lovers to put themselves in the spotlight like that, but the 100% confirmed town line is probably more what made me not consider the possibility at all.

Besides, it's clearly the Bodyguard contradiction. Father/daughter love was a real thing in those sequestered gold mining towns...or as they said in the original Vacation...
Cousin Vicki: I'm going steady, and I French kiss.
Audrey: So, everybody does that.
Cousin Vicki: Yeah, but Daddy says I'm the best at it.

To be fair, drealmer sent the replacement request on the 11th, so Quad probably asked for a replacement either that day or the day before, I just saw it on the 13th because of GOG's lack of notifications. The "turning on meda" was also sincere since he didn't have his message with the qt link at the time.

Btw this flip is gonna be interesting because I'm kind of scumreading my mason bud
And 'scumreading my mason bud' is a contradiction in terms. If you are mason buds, you are both confirmed town by the mod. If there is a possibility of one of you being scum, you are not masons.
And now this reads as if you're implying that Darko is going to die along with you. But that would make you Lovers, not Masons! And Lovers can be from both camps - and actually often are mixed scum/town. Or if you used the 'declare love' power which creates a lovers pair, you usually don't get any information about the loved one's alignment.
There was a game in the past where drealmer, being my lover, convinced me to trust him. I was town, he was scum. Town lost. So being Lovers doesn't confirm any alignment.
Sorry. Going through the posts one by one to be able to post before drealmer closes the Day. On to the later posts.

So what? Incest isn't exactly uncommon in backwater villages and drealmer warned us that it might get raunchy. No one else is good enough for my daughters anyhow and Lot did lay with his daughters too. ... Well, he was drunk, but that can be arranged too! ;-)
But on a more serious note: if you are lovers, why the hell did you call it Masons? Why claim? Why lie? And why make such a mess? If you are town, this all was very, very stupid!

------------------
As I see it, Meda has not explained at all how she can pick any name out of a hat and make them Masons. It just doesn't make sense as a role. There are problems with the role if she selects someone who is scum and she is seemingly avoiding the details because she knows she messed up and cannot explain it. If she cannot recruit scum, she gets a free cop shot. Doesn't seem like this is what is intended.
I find it more likely it a "neighboring" power. Now, if you want to keep it less complicated and as a mod you like the idea of cross-faction chats, you could make it similar but different from last game by giving one of the scum a selection of players. You don't have to worry about what faction the person selected is because as scum, the scum player already knows everyone else should be town (with a chance of neutral).
I think that is what happened in this game. Meda got that power. Decided she could try to use it to "confirm" herself as town, and here we are. She didn't think her plan through enough, so has to dodge questions about how it all works since her initial role claim doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Too many holes in it.
I've given her ample time to explain, and we are at the deadline which can end the day at any time. Neither Meda nor Darko seemingly wants to help.
Vote Meda
For the love of God, let's not no-lynch today...
2nd choice, Gamma. If Meda is somehow town, that last post sure stinks like scum avoiding a town lynch for town points. Also an off chance Gamma is scum buddies and hoping the lynch just fizzles.

RW is 100% scum and Gamma is 100% town for the way RW is posturing trying to line up a lynch on him there.
And some stupid hammer stuff later:
Great job, I told you the lynch was pretty dumb. Whatever. Don't listen to me because "lol Gamma knows jack shit about everything let's just call him Jon Snow cuz lols".

Or to be more exact flavorwise, she declared her love to Quad. Notes are supposed to be the communication method.
