Did not attempt to perform an action:
Kantrip
Joey
[??Acrostic??]
Therefore, the following people would have had their attempted actions go through:
Acrostic
Red Ryu
[??dabuz??]
A mafia member passing their fork to their partner is equivalent to using an action, because they are taking the fork to their right. This doesn't require the person to their left taking no action, though. Chances are very high that the mafia used the fork passing mechanic last Night. This means one mafia member took the fork to their right, and one mafia member sent in a Night Kill using theirs and their partner's forks.
11.) Failure to send in your night action(s) will result in no action(s) being taken.
Joey claimed that he was too inactive to send in an action. This implies that he has an action, and that it is an action he would have used, had he been active enough. However, due to this rule, he left his fork wide open for Red Ryu. Red Ryu has claimed an action that could be confirmed under normal circumstances, but he happened to target the player who died. How convenient. We can't confirm his action, it's one-shot so we can't get him to prove it again, Acrostic died so we don't even know if it went through or not (which allows RR to claim that without fear of Joey's claim screwing him over), and, hey, if Red Ryu got Tracked or otherwise traced to Acrostic's body, his claim covers that! What's more, dabuz has pseudo-counterclaimed Red Ryu's claim, stating that he possesses one of RR's two "JoaT" abilities! (These being a one-shot message send and a one-shot self-watch).
So onto reactions and play from Night Action mechanics. How does Red Ryu respond to dabuz's callout? He ignores it! How does he respond to the building wagon on himself? He tries to pressure
TBG all of a sudden, citing it as "a lynch we can all agree on", and imploring two townread's of mine (Known Mafia through play and Joey by extension of not being partnered with RR) to join him! Otherwise, he ignores it!
Okay, let's take a break from recent developments and look back at pre-claim play. I display disinterest with Red Ryu at one point, saying "Ruy can duy." His response is to post a picture and turn the statement into a joke.
Meta alert: Red Ryu jokes a lot more as scum than as town (small point, don't tear it apart). After I inform him the accusation was serious, we really don't take the conversation any further. Suddenly I'm a scumread of Red Ryu's. We have our votes on each other for a while, nothing happens, it becomes the next Day, Red Ryu CONTINUES to cling to his scumread on me. Meanwhile, I have dropped it and ask him "Why were we at each other's throats again?" No answer. I ask him again: "Why am I scum to you?" Still no answer, he never makes anything of his vote sitting on me, and now he has just jumped onto TBG (a lynch people wanted
yesterDay but who has not even been on the table toDay) and thinks everyone is fine with that lynch. It's poor deflecting, it's pushing the lynch onto someone who is by and large a null read, and it is done in conjunction with 1. Blowing off the pressure on himself and not addressing it, and 2. Getting off his Kantrip vote that he was just sitting on without reasoning.
So those are some reasons Red Ryu is scum. As for scum partners, I am not looking at Joey, dabuz, or TBG. Known Mafia could be but he is a townread of mine, and my bets are soup for RR's partner. I have reasoning for that scumread too, and for why the work together, but I think that can wait until toMorrow after we get a scum flip from RR just so I don't waste my time laying it out on the chance I'm wrong.
So, let's lynch Ruy.
Vote: Red Ryu
