I don't think the IAI stuff matters much tbh. I'm pretty sure based on how D2 progressed that scum knew IAI was the second mason by N1 and was hoping he'd get vigged and/or town would lynch him D2. That didn't happen and was unlikely to do so in the future, so they killed him N2. I don't think scumRask would feel any need to nk IAI over a mild scumread.In post 2614, BlackVoid wrote:@Jaack, I still think you should ask yourself, if not Rask then who? I have a hard time seeing a scumteam outside of Rask. The only one I can see is Creature and MariaR but it's a bit iffy. There's also the IAI nightkill. IAI mildly suspected Rask saying that he thought Rask was just telling him what he wanted to hear which is exactly how I felt about Rask at times. If no one sticks out as obviously scummy, I think it points to one of the better players being scum and Rask and Sotty7 fit as a team extremely well. One other thing - when Sotty7 started D2 by voting Rask, my initial thought was "that's probably a bus vote." I think she anticipated pressure D2 based on the TwoFace kill and wanted to start by distancing.
As for who else, I don't think Maria/Hoopla is unlikely as you say. In fact I don't really feel ready to rule out any Hoopla combos...
I'm also not willing to town clear cloud like all yall seem wont to do, but I know it's pointless to argue that at this time.
I'm willing to reconsider rask as a lynch candidate tho, but I think you're stretching a little.
