On second thought,
Unvote
yesterday when AL made a slip (deliberate or not) tac immediately casted vote on him ( I doubt he will once again try to pull his strategy in case of rej) and was desperate to push bandwagon on him....
The point is we already argued that putting vote on rej could be strategy to distance himself from scum so I doubt that after that he will once again try to pull something similar.
Also, the desperateness against Al is clear as if he desperately wanted to push bandwagon on al to save himself especially when Al made that slip....this desperateness wasn't there in case of rej.
Also, Noctis could have been removed for two reasons
1) they feared I could get protection so their nk could go to waste...or doing nk on me would put highlight my sus list (beta, bogard, sentinel) which I posted immediately before the day 3 ending...
2) by doing nk on noctis they can push blame on Al who also made a slip with N3.....
So al as a scum seem less likely at least for now....
Yeah I agree with your points, I think AL isn't scum. My reason is because Al made a claim and it aligned with the hints he dropped earlier in the game. If anything, I think we should start by looking at the people who have yet to claim or drop any hints of their ability.
Specifically, I am pretty sure on this one, we need to start investigating Bogard now. He has been passive throughout the game, TAC also put Bogard on his suspect list, but as the 3rd option. This is a pretty obvious play so that in case TAC gets lynched, it gives room for Bogard to say something like "Oh but look! Confirmed mafia suspected me!"
Not to mention, Bogard was hesitant on joining the TAC lynch, he tried to push for a Reborn lynch first (and agreeing to FB's farfetch theory of Reborn getting the Mera Mera no Mi) then when he logged in again, he asked about the tally of votes. Like pointed out by reborn:
Huh?
Too good of a timing bogard
6 on tac...and 2 on me
timing is too perfect, he shows up and votes only after it is solidified that TAC is getting lynched.
I'm calling it, Bogard is scum.
Vote Lynch Bogard
(let's see what Bogard has to say for himself)
