Her's the thing AMpharos : you're focusing on the weaker parts of the argument against scum!WW, which are all the breadcrumb things. I mostly agree with you that the breadcrumbs are mostly null.
In the process, you are ignoring the fact that, while it might be a convenient claim, it's a very specific claim, and not as convenient as it could be. Why doesn't WW claim to be a town role having targeted HYdrad here ? Why does he complicate his life by directly contradicting faust, yet not really pushing for his lynch ?
Because having targetted silver would not have fit his behaviour at all. Also, if he had claimed that, we would have lynched him.
Would we have? I don't think I would have...
I really think a main difference in how I am approaching the game and how you are approaching the game is that it feels like you are playing this like it is an open setup and there can't be anything that affected your investigation on WW. You feel like it must be known (how I don't know).
But this isn't an open setup. It is closed. There is the potential for interference with result in a myriad of ways, some of them we have talked about others we couldn't anticipate because this is a closed setup. I want to try and get more information about this before making a decision.
It isn't like your investigation result is just going to disappear... at least it shouldn't and if I am alive in the coming days and if I feel like it is relevant and we learn more that implicates WW or learn there isn't anything holding him up... we will lynch him. I think we can sit on your result and make sure it is what it is and not lose anything in the process.
