1. Did Luna tell you outright that Roy Petty was town?
No. However, I think the current most likely theme split is Navarros vs. Else, which would make Roy Petty town. Even from a game theory standpoint, I think confirming a cop’s role once they claim and give their results was the purpose of my role.
2. Have you considered that it could be a counter to mafia using a fake character claim if they were given one?
While it could be possible some day in another game, it’s not here. ComputerNerd didn’t even use a fake claim. He just straight up claimed Roy Petty. You’d think he’d at least research a fake claim as mafia, but he was honest. Regardless of whether mafia was given a fake claim or not, I don’t think they would use it on him. I think they would use it on a more experienced player who would be less likely to slip up.
3. What’s your justification for Russ as Emissary because I’ve never heard of this role.
Because on the show, Russ knew Roy was working for the FBI before more the major characters did. Roy lured him into a false relationship where eventually Russ let some secret slip and Roy revealed he was in the FBI to him and threatened to arrest Russ if he didn’t turn informant for Roy. The manipulative nature of Roy obviously doesn’t make him a good person but he’s not the main antagonist or even aligned with any of the big antagonists of the series. Just a guy who is trying to crack the crime code in the town. Even theme split wise FBI vs. Else makes no sense because there are only two FBI characters. I doubt there are two scum.

I think Max is scum because of theme analysis. But I want ComputerNerd’s cop result. He better have one too.

Also to narrow down our search for scum and to help with theme analysis, I will full claim here.
My character is Russ Langmore. My role is the Emissary. It’s not really much of a power role if you can even call it that, but I was given knowledge at the start of the game that Roy Petty was in the game and ComputerNerd was the player who got him as a character. I realized based on game theory that there was likely a reason why I was given that knowledge, so I concluded he was a power role, cop being the most likely one. Although the prospect of him being a vigilante did cross my mind at one point. In one post I did mention bomb, but that was more just advice for future games since ComputerNerd is a noob.
It’s why I was pushing ComputerNerd so hard to be active; I wanted him to read the DP and select a reasonable cop target in the night.
I tried to breadcrumb in one post where I listed likely characters that were in the game and alluded to Roy Petty being a power role, and I added some theme analysis to make the bread in that post less obvious, but I think I ended up adding too much and making then bread in that post not obvious enough.

Theme wise, Ruth was allied with Marty for most of the series, and Jacob Snell I think was in opposition to Marty for the series.
So I think our scum team is Navarros and affiliates.

Also, I’m confident Disc sacrificed himself for ComputerNerd.

@ComputerNerd
Tagged ComputerNerd for activity since I expect he is a cop and has a result.

@ComputerNerd
I honestly don’t regret lynching Earth. I am only bummed out they were town. Still the information we got and will get is something I can live with.

Mikal, Pie, ComputerNerd, Badger, Sui, Greyparrot, and I have all voted for Earth. If I am correct, that is the hammer.

@sui_generis
So according to that theme analysis Helen wouldn’t be tied enough to Marty to make her character on his side. Ok.
At this new take from you I would then say theme cannot be determined at this point in time. Not until DP2.

We don’t even need a vote from Grey,m if we can get both Whiteflame and Sui to cast the last votes. Earth is at L2.

If Earth reveals abilities and is believable, can we switch to Greyparrot? I don’t think we can, but I want to float the question out there.

Earth is at L3. Mikal, Pie, ComputerNerd, and I are all on him.

And I apologize if it seems I am trying to take over. I just want to avoid a no-lynch this DP

Would like to use DP2 to further analyze DP1 and NP1 and get rid of Greyparrot.

@Earth
You have 30 minutes to reveal abilities. Reveal or get lynched.

Actually I’ll extend until 8:30 before I stating pinging people again
Created:

Because let’s be honest: Earth’s defense was shoddy. And we don’t have the time to switch o Greyparrot.
Created:
Posted in:
I say at 8:00 ET we start pushing for the outright lynch on Earth. He has about 15 minutes reveal abilities.
Any objections?

@ILikePie5
Possibly. But we still only have 5 on him. We need more if we need to lynch. I am down for an Earth lynch but we will like need to get rid of Greyparrot DP2.

Sorry about the hasty unvote. Was just trying to be fast given the small amount of time.

Yeah I was being too hasty to let you off the hook. Mills is right, we need your abilities.

@Mikal
Wait, do you need me to pressure for abilities as well? I can real quick. I just wanted to pivot to Airmax.

@Earth
That may not be enough for some but given the amount of time left it’s enough for me for now.
Everyone- Let’s pivot to pressuring Airmax since we need a full claim from him as well.
Unvote VTL Airmax

@Earth
I don’t think you are but if that’s the case it’s all the more reason to full claim.
