Almost fully correct. In this plan each cop investigates the cop from the previous night, not whoever they want.
Yes.
We were given the weak cop N1, and investigated SC. Thus SC can only be town or godfather. Given PRs are given away in these games, SC being godfather is in the category of remote but not perfectly clear.
Whoever gets the weak cop then cops us. This forces scum to shoot their mislynch or have me confirmed as town. While generally I suck as conftown, Sonic does not.
The inventor keeps giving the weak cop to scummy people. This forces a massive chain of clears OR uses the cop as a second lynch because scum kill who was checked the previous night.
Example time
Example 1 (Scum get the cop checking an unknown party)
Adam checking Brian who previously checked Sonic Boom who checked SC.
In this scenario, we assume Adam is scum. If Adam deviates from the plan it is a scumclaim. Adam has no choice but to sit on the inventor and claim Brian is towntown, regardless of Brian's actual alignment.
Scum could only kill Brian if he is town, but the moment scum stop killing the people who are to be checked, it sends up a neon flag that the last cop (Brian) is scum and so is Adam.
Example 2:
Same scenario but Adam is town. Adam will check Brian.
If Brian is scum, then Adam will die.
If Brian is town, Adam will live.
If there are two deaths on any given night, we know to lynch the last person in the train. Therefore, if scum ever get the weak cop, they must nk or sacrifice a buddy. Even then, the inventor will still see its one hell of a coincidence that only one person died AND that person was the weak cop recipient.
Scum cannot merely just kill every person on the line, because eventually there is a scum that will get the weak cop. If scum have been chain shooting the clears and they suddenly stop, whoever is not dead is suddenly suspicious. Even if they take this approach (in our scenario that means killing us as SC should get the commute), then the scum kill is co-opted to be a second lynch on scummy players.
TLDR
Scum have weak cop, they must claim the person in front of them in the weak chain is town.
Town gets the weak cop, then it's town clears or very hard nk options for scum.
It is obvious we are not the inventor as the weak cop inventor cannot gift themselves. Do not hint at who you would give the cop to. The weak cop inventor can claim as an innocent child at this point.
