This I'm going to say once and only once, and it's going to be long, so don't respond til you read everything.

Nikells is making a very strong argument and I'm very tempted to unvote.

Here is why.

It is becoming less and less likely that we will get the SK. We might end up killing him instead.

When hat divulged the guide message, and subsequently his outrage at skipping over another name, I thought it was too simple that he could have made the error. So, instead, I believe he got a different hint, one that would definitely limit the possibilities to ONLY 2 people.

The hint would have been something like the SKs name begins with N. In that respect, he could overlap the two. He is actually searching for someone whose name begins with N, while we are focused on truck heph and nikells, his list is atually something like nikells, noname, and nen-suer. In this respect, he can still eliminate one of the possible people while at the same time giving mafia a red herring of people to kill. While he's trying to cure, say, nen-suer, the mafia will target hephestos. 

However, names beginning with N have 3 people, so that might not be it. After a thorough examination of possible name connections Nikells has with others, I have concluded that there is no possible 2-person list unless he was given the exact names. 

So, to that end, my best possible course of action is to lynch someone else that we find suspicious and let hat try and turn them one by one without letting us know which one he is going to be targeting next. We cannot ask him who he is going to target, otherwise it will jeopradize his operation.

At the very most, Hat will be lynched in two days. And at the very least we will be able to protect possible strong players from getting lynched.

Right now, my biggest concern is truckosaurus and here's why:
Kantor was killed by a hit because of the information he editted out of his post "a rather complicated role". The mafia, knowing that he wasn't on their team made him a target, and was killed by a hitman or night mafia vigilane of some kind. Then, Khuutra told truck to simmer down because the day hadn't started yet (though it actually had) and truck obeyed unnerringly. Yet, like nen-suer pointed out, both of them missed the fact that the day had started. For this reason, I feel like Khuutra and truck were in league but additionally, it was because like nen-suer later said, scum tend to "fast-foward" through the posts because they aren't concerned with "looking for clues" as much as others, and only focus on moral triggers like editting.

This doesn't clear nen-suer of course. Nen-suer's quote read "how could both you and khuutra miss that, FoS on both of you". This could have been an indirect way of telling his teammates to pay more attention. So he is still not beyond suspicion.

However, given the nature of the situation we face with the 3 targets ending in S, I believe truck has much more reason for being a scum. The SK is going to die or be turned either way. I say we take out the most obvious candidate.

Also, given the fact that truck's argument was supported by both dtewi and scifiboy is problematic.

We have plenty to lose if nikells role-calls. If two townies become big targets and the mafia has the ability to kill 2 people at night, one murder/one hit, we will lose at least one important person.

But they will have to wait. Read above.

I never heard of a mafia vigilante. If they did have one, that would be incredibly unfair.

nikells didn't do anything wrong, which is why you are a prime suspect too.

The only thing nikells did was get listed as a possible target by hat.

Yes it is simpler that hat could have just made a mistake, but the opportunity was there. An opportunity that should have been taken.

And you are aware that you just compared yourself to scum right? "I hadn't realized day started either. That sounds like you are roleclaiming townie. Just more reason to believe you're scum.
