I'm completely torn. On the one hand, tabaha feels overwhelmingly scummy. I've been re-reading the thread and it's just SO much evidence against him. I mean, look at this. On the other hand, there's the whole uncountered cop + a Miller and a Godfather.

I'm just gonna list my points on tabaha + DT:
tabaha town/ DT scum:
- he seems to be cop; uncountered + miller and GF. His posts regarding his claim seem genuine, especially the earlier bits about not wanting to screw with town's chances of winning if he claimed, which made sense as cop.
- This conversation.

tabaha scum/ DT town:
- ALL THE EVIDENCE throughout the game against tabaha; the buddying, defending, trying to get vote off Trucks...etc.
- DT caught the fucking bulletproof godfather for god's sake. Helped also town a lot this game.
- Trucks was so against DT, and was trying to get him lynched, but mantle stepped in with his results.

Thoughts, anyone?

I'd really like to hear from linkz, and our lurkers as well (@Radish and F-F).

First off, if anyone has one of those post votals I'd like to see how this lurker accusation really stacks up.  I know I've had a couple of big absences in terms of posts inbetween appearances, but I think others have been absent for similar time periods; I was just unfortunate to be away from the thread while it was exploding that time we had about 800 posts in 48 hours. 

But moving on, your talk about tabaha's claim reminded me of something you seem to have overlooked about that situation.  His claim happened at the time of DT's claim:  tabaha claimed that DT's Watching must be fake because DT didn't know tabaha also targeted prof.  It is very obvious why a true cop would claim in order to expose a fake Watcher.  However, it is somewhat shakier to justify a mafia fake-claiming cop to undermine a true Watcher.  I could still see it being done, especially as we didn't know about the BP+GF at the time, and with a tracker + watcher and doctor etc, it would be plausible that there is no ... cop ... WAIT WAIT WAIT

TOWN didn't know that Trucks was a godfather yet.  But the mafia certainly did!  It is too much of a stretch to believe mafia would fakeclaim cop when they have reason to think there is a true cop, in a desperate attempt to save a fellow mafia (even a BP GF), when the true cop counter-counter-claiming would be extremely likely to be believed anyway -- and then be so lucky as to have the game NOT have a true cop after all. 

I've been on the fence as there is a lot to be said for both sides, and a wrong guess could easily result in a mislynch, which could end the game, but I've finally found something that lets me say Occam's Razor puts me firmly in the "DT is more likely scum" camp.

It still boggles my mind that scum-DT would finger TOS, the BP GF, of all people.  Even assuming the bus driver is scum, if there is a third man remaining on their team, I shudder to think what his abilities might be.  I personally had been trusting TOS prior to that.
