I didn't join the hood until after Gamma was eliminated. D2 had like 3 eliminations, the blind one, the normal one, and the governor one, and I tracked Kate on N2. Her reflexive neighbor kicked in and I joined the hood the morning of D3. There was also some push for no elimination during the governor vote, and I argued against that and lead Luke toward hammering Gamma rather than "playing it safe" with no elim. I outlined that attempting to elim scum was just strictly better than no elim because scum was definitely choosing amongst the same pool we were considering, which was Cabd, Gamma, and No Elim. There was no advantage to be gained by going elsewhere, and No elim has the downside of not eliminating scum if scum guessed incorrectly. Best expected value was to eliminate Gamma or Cabd, as scum was equally likely to choose one of them as no elim, but if they get it wrong in that case we lim scum. So no elim was just strictly the worst option for town, and I convinced Luke of that, leading to Gamma's elim.
Would I turbo-bus both scumteam? No, never. Would I have turbo-bussed them both if someone
else
had tracked Dunn to the kill, and Gamma tried to save Dunn like he did on D2? Yes, probably. But that is not what happened - I tracked Dunn because he seemed like he would be a prime target to die on a later night after Cabd or Kate, and I wanted to prep to Watch him. This is in line with my D1 play, and makes sense when you consider the consensus reads on Dunn, Cabd, and Kate, and their perceived strength as players. I thought it was likely that Cabd or Kate would die on N1, so I went for the next-best choice, which, imo, was Dunnstral, and I happened to get lucky and catch him killing.
Could go back to D1 and look at interactions with LLD. Clearly scum left her alive in order to use her for kills, so players that supported LLD's toogeloo push are prime suspects (Cabd, who was sheeped by
