- the presence of 2 flavor-cops is verified, as it would take 2 false claims out of {Boomfrog, EGW, somitomi} to fake that.
- the game design of the 2 town cops having to work together feels extremely neat to me, if one of them is scum then the other basically has no purpose as they cannot uncover scum on their own.
- Boomfrog is about 98% cleared because they would have to be Godfather of some sort to fool the N1 investigation and I highly doubt that with cop-utility already restricted we would have GF in the game.
- In case Bop flips indie, then it is actually unlikely that Santy is scum. This is based on heury's claim that his kill takes priority. In that scenario there is no one who could have shot Mak as we yeeted wam, madge was devoured before she could perform the kill and Santy was jailed. Of course Santy could have Strongman.
- ahippo/philip should be confirmed as Motivator by now for everyone, as I have claimed RB for N2 and both of my targets confirmed it. It would take about 3 false claims if Motivator wouldn't be true.
- that basically leaves Santy, JC and heury. Santy's claim cannot be reasonably tested, so the safe play is to have heury shoot him and do cross-checks on everyone else. My idea is something like this:
- Both cops target JC
- We test Boomfrog's and JC's claim by having them track philip.
- heury shoots Santy
- I withhold my action
- philip targets randomly
- Santy's action (if true) shouldn't matter as heury's kill takes priority
1) both cops
2) if they say JC is fine then Boomfrog claims next
3) next is JC
4) finally philip
If there is any discrepancy between two results then yeet both players in order and you're fine. Of course if heury cannot be confirmed then yeet him first.
This is the mechanical portion. Next we can discuss what should be modified depending on Bop's flip.
