i think he's been softclaiming mason for a while, and it's more likely he interpreted his action being successful as implying your were roleblocked. confirmation would additionally help.
i have not been visited (as far as i know).
nano still seems reeeeeeeeeeeeally quiet.
Considering that we were at newt: 11 and amber: 4 earlier, it's technically more likely that the mayor voted for Newt first.
in either case, as stated earlier: if we assume the vigilante shoots the target that isn't lynched, everything works out fine. getting a tie with the mayor is more just a bonus.
finally, nominations to the cults:
Red Cult:
Jace- Watcher
Caimie- Spy
Amber- Leader
Nicki- Recruit
Blue Cult:
Alistair- Watcher
Newt- Leader? Spy? idk. something
Yahen- Recruit
???- whatever newt isn't
in other words, the two cults were basically were immediately active. i'd argue that ??? is likely either Cas or Jason since no one else sticks out to me right now.
the role assignments for blue cult are a bit less certain- the role assignments for red cult are only set in stone because we know that Jace is the Watcher.
caimie and ali are both suspicious because of how active and inactive they've been, respectively.
and, again, as stated earlier:
1.) it is not announced if i am culted
2.) as stated previously, i was not visited last night
3.) it should be reasonably clear when i'm culted since i'm going after everyone pretty hard right now and it'd be very very obvious that i've changed and i'd probably reveal the leader out of spite anyway
i get that i'm an easy last-ditch attempt target to try and save yourself since i'm the celebrity but it should also be really obvious that you're avoiding roleclaiming by accusing me.
this is not a defense. it also happens to be his best case scenario if he is in the blue cult. meanwhile, you refuse to roleclaim.
this is why i suggested lynching him first.
another alternative is that amber has a visiting role that visited nicki and informed her of it. those are pretty rare and there isn't a whole lot of risk in counterclaiming one of them should there be a fakeclaim.
though nicki's behavior makes it seem like she's cult.
