Her vote revealed at last, the crowd gathers round Postie's residence to demand an explanation of the preceding events.
No explanation was to come.
Postie has died! She was Robin Hood, 1-Shot Modified Governor Sadist Thief, aligned with the Town.
Spoiler: Role PM
Such outlaws as he and his men
Will England never see again.
Robin Hood is a heroic figure from English folklore who is famous for stealing from the rich and giving to the poor. Opinions are mixed as to whether the character truly existed or not, however it is very noteworthy that in the original tales he did not actually give to the poor. There were early records of him lending to the poor on one occasion but the character was originally characterized as one who simply robbed the rich and kept it for himself. He was also a yeoman, a commoner, as opposed to later versions where he became varyingly noble. With that said, he represents one of the most long lasting characters in folklore and he and his merry men are truly legendary.
A true hero of the downtrodden proletariat, Robin Hood is unwilling to attempt to lynch those who are so vote-poor that they haven't received any votes. He is an outlaw notorious for robbery and at night may steal an item from a player that may give hints as to what their flavour is. Finally, he is sympathetic to the poor and once per game may steal a vote from a vote-rich person (someone who has been lynched) and provide it instead to someone who has not yet received a vote.
Welcome, Postie! You are Robin Hood, 1-Shot Modified Governor Sadist Thief, aligned with the Town.
Merry Men (Sadist): Will not vote a player who has not received any votes.
Steal from the Rich... (Thief): Once per night you may rob a player, stealing a personal effect that may help identify their flavour.
...And give to the Poor (1-Shot Modified Governor): Once per game you may steal a vote from a player who is vote-rich (has been lynched) and apply it to a player who is vote-poor (hasn't been voted). Will not apply in MyLo/LyLo situations.
You win when all anti-town factions are eliminated and at least one town member is alive.

It was either 1 last scum alive or some third party that kills.
you could have used your action on drealmerz and make an attempt to catch an SK.

Drealz self resolves when he takes a shot and has a substantial chance of eating a kill causing my follow to be wasted. Objectively a poor follow action.

egh
it just makes zero sense to me, I mean forget his role, he's just fucking really towny
maybe it's because I'm in the hood with him? he doesn't sound like a scumbutt AT ALL and I am really good at reading tone and behavior...
my reads are shit this game I know, but, geebuz, I can't believe it
or really vote him in good conscience

Having two flavour cops doesn't make much sense. Having one only get CLUES about flavour (Postie) and the other be a full flavour cop makes even less.
His only claimed results are on someone who claimed their flavour in a neighbourhood with RM, and someone who was killed that night, which is convenient in the most suspicious manner possible.
An element cop without some kind of weakened role cop doesn't make sense.
If there were a weakened role cop my role would boost them to a regular role cop, and smith fits this perfectly.
Those are Postie's points on why smith is scum and fakeclaiming.

I was wondering if there were only townies left, but, the kill confirms not

You were reasonably in the POE and had basically zero chance of eating a scum shot, making you a solid investigative target.
Ideally I could have verified someone w a night action but apparently that wasn't considered "fun" to let me know who could do something objectively verifiable.

Having two useless roles makes perfect sense, as flavor is basically useless knowledge. That's objectively terrible setup spec there.
Also did you or did you not spend time yourselfmtinfoiling on lycan in our hood before he died and talking about "maybe he janitored boring"? So given that, how in the word is that a bad investigate?
