As i feel like i need to be doing something, i just want to note why the reasons to flop around are also not good.

Starting withh imallinson.

first part: why should anyone other than lyter have defended himself? what? If i make a case against somebody and he defends it, does that mean i am more likely scum because i didnt defend something?
second part: Lazin clarified that (multiple times) reasonably well. if Lyter is blue and was about to be lynched, it is sufficient a reason to claim blue so town at least doesnt totally waste a lynch (and probably out a blue, as i dont think a mafia would try to claim blue day 1 when someone could just counterclaim him)

imallinson, let's be honest here: you can't play neutrality in this situation. There were two likely lynch candidates, and they were tied. You're the tiebreaker! You owe it to the town to examine both cases and pick who dies, because one of them will die anyway, and your pick won't.

Instead, you went "nope! not getting into this". This is an "avoid blame" move, not a "find the best lynch" move. I can understand the initial switch away from Lyter, who suddenly had a better post than a lot of people in the game. I can't really understand not switching back to either him or Goss once you knew that one of them would die.
