Finally I'm caught up. So we know for a fact NinPie is telling the truth about his role since Baalz is not scum so he could only have gotten his name by scanning him.

Now all that's left to determine is if he's town aligned. I was pretty damn sure of it before he started refusing to say "I'm Professor Oak" so I'm gonna make the same plea to him as others: Just say it! If you're town there's absolutely nothing to lose from this.

We may not have any vanilla townie so taking that into consideration it may be possible to have a town name cop, thats not likely but still possible.

But a name cop is usless and a waste on time for the mod if the characters have nothing to do with the aligment.

The only way i can see a town having a name cop if there a way to tie or at least clear suspects (like what prof suggested with mafia being males for example)

Still not sure what to think of Pie's claim, not to mention his character thats not really a vg character imo.

Samus is too one of Hat's favriout vg characters and she" fits" with the bullet proof role.

Its obvious now that characters tend to fit with the roles they are given so inclined to believe DS's claim.

For comparisons:

Duke = Cop

Tails = Double voter

Kiryu: Body gurad

Alucard : Miller

How do you find D3 so far? I've heard mixed things... But I'm getting it for sure =D

Yeah, I'll try my best not to say stupid things again - but I can't promise anything ^^

I guess we gotta find a new theory that sets mafia apart from townies...

I did however find one piece of interesting clue about Prof. Oak and NinPies Role! Ninpie is obviously a name cop - and in one of the Pokémon games you help find out the name of Oaks grandchild! At that goes well withNinPies Role actually...

Who else do we got both names and Roles for? Prof was Kid and a... what?

Right now, my stance is that Mafia have antagonist names and possibly safe-claims names (even without them it wouldn't be that hard to fakeclaim). So I'm really not in favor of lynching NintendoPie today because his role makes sense as a counter-weight to my limitations.

Note that may never set mafia from townie just by names and even if there is a connection we wont have a good chance of finding it until we actually kill one.

Pokemon is a series not a vg originally. I'm under the assumption that this theme is a celebrationof VGs

and Oak's presence just feels....out of place. Sspecially with the name claims we had so far.

And unless Hat is messing with us its weird that Pie the pokemon lover gets a character from Pokemom!

This is from the swedish Wikipedia page about Oak (for some weird reason there isn't a english page?!):

Oak har ett barnbarn, som han har glömt namnet på. Spelaren får hjälpa honom att "komma ihåg" namnet - det som egentligen görs är att spelaren väljer ett namn åt Oaks barnbarn. Standardnamnet för honom är Blue.

And with Google translate you get this:

Oak has a grandchild, which he forgot the name of. The player must help him to "remember" the name - it is actually done is that the player chooses one name at Oaks grandchildren. The default name for him is Blue.

But I haven't got a secondery source, so I don't know if this is true or not...

To be fair, it started out as a VG:

Originally released as a pair of interlinkable Game Boy role-playing video games developed by Game Freak, Pokémon has since become the second most successful and lucrative video game-based media franchise in the world, behind only Nintendo's own Mario series.^[3] Pokémon properties have since been merchandised into anime, manga, trading cards, toys, books, and other media.
