I don't have any experience with them, and given the current site meta to flake on red, I have to consider that option.

night 3 vigilante or vengeful
1-shot vigilante or 2-shot PGO (active)
ascetic cop or bulletproof
draft cop or 1-shot watcher
doctor or roleblocker
universal backup or rolecop
neighborizer or voyeur
jailkeeper or tracker

If we have the setup on the left, this is what I believe we should do:
The night 3 vigilante should be left alive until night 3.
The 1-shot vig should not shoot if scum is voted out on day 1. If town is voted out, they should.
The ascetic cop should check who they think is scum but is unlikely to be voted out the next day.
The draft cop can check whoever they like to see if they have a role.
The doctor should protect a universally townread person.
The universal backup should wait.
The neighbouriser should target someone they think they will get along and solve with.
The Jailkeeper should target their biggest scumread.

If we have the setup on the right:
The vengeful should claim when death is assured and kill a consensus scumread.
The PGO should not activate and save themselves for later.
The bulletproof should enjoy themselves.
The 1-shot watcher should not do anything on the first night.
The roleblocker should target their biggest scumread.
The rolecop should target a scumread they're worried might be a cop.
The voyuer should target a high interest player.
The tracker should target their biggest scumread that won't immediately be voted out.

If we follow all of these actions, we can probably win this game from the sheer amount of roles that will be in town's hands. We just need to make sure foolish things aren't done like vigilantes shooting like heroes or cops checking players that will be voted out the next day anyway.

Strike 3, you're out!
VOTE: Thor

Given the amount of mechanics you've discussed over the day, why not bring this up earlier?
If you have read any of these games previously, how can you be so blatantly unaware of the setup mechanics on multiple fronts?

The timing of this makes me think that Thor and Manatee are aligned, having played with Manatee before she has frozen as scum.
VOTE: Manatee because shifting everyone onto thor is going to suck especially given I am read so low apparently.

Gamma's vote is ???? Im pretty sure they were already scumreading me so im not sure why they used bee starting a pressure wagon as the time to lay down a vote
the worst had a naked vote,, which makes sense and is fine with meeeeeee. not much 2 read in to here.
Thor said my iso sent shivers down his spine which is fair,,, cos same im not proud of what ive done so far.
i dont think flea really thinks my frozen-ness here is comparable to NQN (i think thats what fae is talking abt). not a fan of that vote cos i think those scenarios are pretty different.
pp naked vote is fine.

Naked votes are "fine" to the person who happens to be the leading wagon?

Shenanigans.

The whine about Gamma's vote is also b/s. She said herself that she knew she was a scumread of his, so OF COURSE he'll be glad to help power a wagon on her. Duh!

VOTE: ManateeGal

I personally don’t recall any such meta from Xtoxm but Almost50 managed to develop a habit of lurking/flaking as scum despite him not having that sort of style before

So I did some digging and I could see Xtoxm maybe hanging back and letting Auro drive as scum but by personal meta I think Xtoxm would be more likely to flake out as town, his scum meta seems to be to kinda subtly steer the game while putting on an appearance of not doing much

If you were my brain I'd be wanting more than a few words with you. Why do you think I should vote you?
Oddly I'm more interested in your thoughts than in manatees.

I dunno. I feel like people have kind of avoided talking about the idea of me being scum but I don't feel like I'm really anyone's townread. I think you mentioned scumreading me at some point, so I wondered if there was a particular reason you were working around that read.

I put you down as a spicy solve.

Why would I vote you in particular when I can vote any of the others in that solve?
Why not press the read at the time?

a: why would flea be panicking if faer wagon was basically non-existent rn?
c: I don’t think that’s accurate but a more rational approach would have been to ask questions vs. insta-accusing
d: I feel like I’ve done that before as town -_-

although I see how a+d would add up to being scummy
