I'm a bit worried there's an X-Factor out there we're missing; a single third party is unusually small, IMO.
Meph: If a Guard prevents a Hivemind conversion (by getting converted instead of the intended target) is the intended target aware of anything?
Scripten: Guardians can only prevent one kill, so yes. If two kills were targeted at Persus, it'd be randomized which one that Persus was protected by. Persus could claim in dead chat if he survived one kill attempt (and I assume source) before dying to the second, though.
I'm pretty sure Zombie Urist is a Psychic Warden, considering I was psychically blocked N1. (This is what I was talking about when I said that we're pretty obviously not aligned or we're both town.)
Can you please clarify the part in parentheses?
Shakerag:
zombie urist - weak connection to Scripten, Strong connection to Tiruin, Strong connection to Jim
So, from a purely information gathering stance, I'd go with Tiruin or zombie urist as the lynch for today.
The only problem with a ZU lynch is (assuming he's telling the truth) his ability is useful in keeping people honest.
Does it bother anyone else that Scripten was twice foiled from killing someone thanks to ZU? It seems awfully convenient to me.
As far as The Plan goes, let's see...
Cheeetar: Nobody, past or present
Jim Groovester: Nobody past, Tiruin and Shakerag N3
Persus13: Nobody past, Scripten and Deus N3
Shakerag: Nobody past, ZU N3
Deus Asmoth: Pisskop N1, Scripten and Persus N3
UXLZ: Shakerag N1 and N2, Shakerag N3
Scripten: ZU N1 [block], Deus and Persus N3
Tiruin: Got a valid result on Toaster N1, nobody N3
zombie urist: Scripten and Jim N1/2 (uncontested block claim), Tiruin N2, Shakerag N3
Toaster: Tiruin N1, nobody N3
While several of these verifications are "this person didn't perform the NK on a specified night" they are better than nothing. Cheeetar is the only person without any validation any night. I don't like that, but at least I read him as town.
Now, the other half of plan issues:
Cheeetar: Can perform NK.
Jim Groovester: Can lie about his result and incriminate someone. Could still act as reporter to fool Tiruin.
Persus13: Could not follow plan, but that wouldn't really help the scum team. Is pretty bound to plan unless Deus is also scum.
Shakerag: Can lie about his result and incriminate someone. Potentially covered as well if ZU is scumbuddy.
Deus Asmoth: Could not follow plan and get Persus killed.
UXLZ: Could perform NK, but is being tracked by Shakerag. Would need Shakerag dead or as a scumbuddy to cover.
Scripten: Can't really do anything.
Tiruin: Can lie about her result and incriminate someone.
zombie urist: Could block someone else. Worst case is probably Deus, which would get Persus killed.
Toaster: Could perform NK.
ZU or Deus could get Persus killed, and Tiruin, Jim and Shakerag could lie to incriminate someone. Persus and Scripten are pretty locked to the plan, so they're very covered. Everyone else could just do the kill (risking getting tracked by Jim.)
Hm.
Tiruin is really in no position to contribute anything to the discussion, since she could easily lie about her results (either to frame someone or to perform the NK.) The only way Jim could be anything but Find is if he performed the NK, and he'd then still be accountable for his result. One of his scumbuddies (unless it's Scripten and Persus) could cover for him.
