@Trip: If you want to help the town, it's time to throw in your real voice. Analyzing each player individually, and coming up with a real idea for who looks scummy, and who not, will help your case. Unless I hear what you say today, I cannot excuse the lack of play any further my dear!
Yos: I'm trying to understand your logic on "trip must be scum" but I just don't see it. I certainly don't believe we have a scum team larger than 3 people in a town this size. For all we know, it could even just be a partnership. So let's look at the scenerios:
Assume Trip is scum. 0-1 more scum member. 10 People alive. 5 people voting yes. 1 person the candidate, and that leaves 4 other people. How do these numbers in any way point to Trip being scum? If there's another mafia, chances are he was probably already busing. If the other mafia wasn't busing, that still leaves 3 other chances for Trip to be hatched away. That's just too big to say it makes sense.
Now let's look at other wise. Trip is not scum. 1-2 other people are scum. Scum generally want to kill, not end in mislynch. Likely our scum would be on this wagon.... HOWEVER...
Consider this:

Four Mafia is a bit much for a game this size, so there's probably some internal Mafia politics, that would fit with the flavor. I just finished playing a Star Wars-themed game (on a different site) where there were more Mafia than usual, but they had Usurper mechanics in line with the Sith Rule of Two...there's a similar flavor going on with the Largo family here.

Graverobber as third party. Maybe some kind of unique mechanic to reflect stealing from the dead or Survivor. Shiloh is a VT role. Amber may be the non-Mafia Largo, she's the most self-interested and least...evil. Pavi may have some kind of mechanic related to his face-changing. Blind Mag is probably some kind of investigative role. Watcher maybe?
But yeah. I can't see Luigi Largo as Town, and certainly not as a VT.
UNVOTE: Camn <--Holy shit, I thought I unvoted a while ago.
VOTE: PeregrineV
Here is Pine throwing the hammer at Peregrine day one, not even with the deadline there to approach and make it necessary. What I wonder: is why pine was so hesitant day two, given that there was no problem with it on day one. He posted within the realm of opportunity, but delayed, hesitated...
Pine wrote:Was about to ask for a claim out of Trip, but I ISO'd him first. Looks like I blinked and missed his claim. I find the claim plausible but unlikely. It's just too obscure, when Repo! hardly lacks for enough characters to fill a mini. Otherwise, I'm not an especially big fan of the case on Trip, but Incog clearly isn't the lynch for today, and Trip is. I'll take an informative lynch that some of my Town-reads are advocating over a no-lynch ten days out of ten.
Unvote
THIS IS INTENT TO HAMMER.
Trip, please make a final post with your outgoing reads and last words. It will be heartily ignored if you flip scum, and taken seriously if you flip Town.
Obviously he was working hard to get Trip lynched, he really agreed that this should happen.
Pine wrote:I have my smartphone. I'll give Trip until 10:30 EDT (30 minutes before deadline) to post, then make it happen.
Why hesitate? This last post shows, he really wanted to get trip thrown overboard... but why the concern on if he's the one doing this? Why is trip posting one more time, that important? The Peregrine thing happened so fast, honestly I didn't even get to see the game from Peregrine posting his claim until after day one was already over. June 22nd, with a deadline of July 1st. Yet day two ends with a no lynch because Pine wanted to see one more post from trip.
I suspect, assuming Pine is scum, and trip not, that Pine would be thinking that people would look at his actions two days in a row of throwing the hammer on a mislynch, and use it to build more of a case on him. It's the only real reason I can see for Pine to take such hasty actions in day one, yet be so afraid to do anything in day two. Pine, I'll love to hear your defense on this.
