@EP,I'll take that temporary vote (see previous comments about that).  Or Hector.  But by now you know whether we both have vested interests in that or not.

PFP I put off both Mafia and a ton of homework and it's all due today aaaaaaaa

EZ town-cred for scum, since nobody is likely to argue "you what, I'm not town!" are they? And if things do work the way I'm thinking they do, scum has a one-shot and is looking for the driver.
Though I'm obviously not proven town, I'd hardly call confirming townies "EZ town-cred". Confirmed townies are very bad for scum, after all.

(I'll respond to your larger post before the end of the day, hopefully, but no promises; I may not have any free time before then)

Now then. I have something of an idea. This night, I zap Fish with my ability, and he targets Elephant Parade. Next day, we lynch Elephant Parade. If he's scum, great! If he's town, okay, now we know that each person who told him their role is town because if they were scum EP would have told us.

Hole filling: Regardless of whether or not EP claims Fish is scum, we still lynch Elephant Parade. If he does claim Fish is scum, and EP's town upon lynch, we lynch Fish the next day. If EP's scum upon lynch, we(probably) win!

The final problem is the problem of me being potential scum from your perspectives. Sadly, that's a problem I can't think of how to fix at the moment.
~~~
Elephant Parade: Could you please vote somebody of your choice, then unvote in a post after that? Just want to know if you can vote.
That's a terrible plan, since the "alternate" wincon (personally, I'm pretty sure we can't actually win the normal way) requires one to survive to D3. Or at least, I'm assuming that's what everyone has, at this point. I suspect that you know this, and are hoping to reduce the number of people who will gain Victory Points.

FoU. Votecount. If Tomcost doesn't swing by by the time my next class ends, I'll remove my vote.

And I'll remove my vote if he does show up, too, obviously.

Survive till the END of day 3, actually. That's my alternate.

Is that anybody else's alternate win condition?

Round 18 - Day 3
 It was a cold, paranoid day for that disturbed town. Maybe the last it would have.

Okay-dokey. Day 3. This is going to be interesting.

I used my ability on Mr. Fish this time around.

Everybody: Do you have an alternate win condition which is to still be alive at the end of Day 3?

I do, and sounds like several people do.

And I can now confirm Fish. I think this confirms Hector (or certainly I don't want to accuse them without reason, even though the link is weak.?), although only EP knows for sure.

So, I know that I am Town (EP should know)
I know that Fish is near-identical Town, but with a small difference.
If Fallacy were not town, then where does the rather precise three-day knowledge come from?
Hector not being Town would need EP to be in (unwitting?) collusion.
EP not being Town doesn't explain why no advantage (at least daytime) was taken from the two reveals.

I have suspicions of mechanisms here. I'm not saying we sit still (because it wouldn't be a good game, amongst other reasons) but I'm urging caution first and foremost.

@EP, if the information you have indicates anything whereby you could break the deadlock by getting to the heart of the matter, would you be able to answer that?  (Not what the answer is (answers are?). Just would you be able?)
@Hector I don't know your basic vulnerability, and yet I think I know where it leads.  Or you don't know it yourself, and that has implications for me.  Tell us if you have a disconnected Achilles Heal, perhaps, to your knowledge?
@Fallacy You're obviously a powerful enabler, which might be a Good or Evil thing, but I tend towards Good, Neutral at worst, but as I said above... I need to think a bit about that. Bearing in mind what I've asked above, is there anything else that I've asked of the others that means anything (you need not say what, specifically).
@Fish I've no immediate questions, except whether you recognise where I was going with EP, just to check accuracy of what I think we have here...
