Anyways, I’m still confident Bo is mafia, so will continue to full send against him

Well, pretty bad result.
I guess I will be next to die tomorrow. We are 4-2 and unless scum or me explode tonight we will lose.
This said, I just don't have any confidence on my reads right now, so I am hoping my HP just kill me so we still have a shot.

Everyone who currently has a potato should also say who they are throwing it to. We don't want any surprise explosions tomorrow (assuming Mafia don't just win tonight.)

Fundamentally the problem I have is that most of the suspicion on me is just "hurr durr Chaqa scum b/c low effort" but like first off, I've always been a lower-activity player, and I've always played by my own style, so it just feels like the same old stink I get every time because people just can't fathom that someone plays the game differently.

I don't have a nose for solving by picking out scum so easily. Sometimes I'll get them right but it's usually due to some knowledge only I'm aware of or some interesting theory I pick up on.

I think voting for any of rdr, yavu, bo, and Dream has a good chance of finding scum. I'd be pretty shocked if both remaining scum are not in there.
this is scummy
I still do not accept lurking based on 'usual behavior', especially when your 'own style' has no positive end to it - a lot of low-quality posts and not a lot of explanation
the best you're getting while using this strategy is a light scumread.

"if I die" is a phrase used either by town to provide a last-minute read or by scum to attempt to establish themselves as town doing such. when a town says "if I die", it is followed by something useful.
"I'm town" is an obvious NAI comment that is definitely not useful

Quick math - there are 15 pairs that can be made from a pool of 6. We know from the sweet potato that Rdr-Dream and Dip-Bo are not both mafia.

13 options - but each townie can eliminate 4-5 of those since they include themselves. So everyone has 8-9 possibilities to consider. It's going to be hard to hit both so I think we need to look for pairing behavior.

It's very weird that we don't know 2 of the potato holders from last night.

I have none and threw mine to Rdrivera.
