agreed. we can't go into this assuming we're down to 1 bad student because LC counts as one out of the three we expect. so let's not get ahead of ourselves and assume we have this in the bag...

I also think there's only one scumbag left so barring an zpic screwup we won
Claiming wallflower is not the same as being wallflower, can we please not blindly trust people who "revealed" their role of vanilla town day 1, especially at this stage of the game? And before anyone brings up the flavour knowledge claim, Ragian is an experienced player who is known to be anti-flavour nonsense and meta-gaming in that way. Scum would have been told of wallflowers or that they're fighting against the wallflowers or some such thing, we weren't just gifted five confirmed townsfolk (incredibly incredibly game breaking) simply because they knew the word wallflower.
On the topic of DDS, his suspicion of dev seems to line up with what I've seen both in the past, as well as today (both posts today by dev were more noncommittal yeah me too whatever you think is best posts that didn't commit to anything or add anything aka Follow the Leader). DDS being killed also shows direct intention by scum that they didn't want to keep him around. It's possible that scum just wanted to frame dev, but the simpler and probably more likely explanation is that a relatively trusted and active townsfolk (DDS) was expressing suspicion of someone (dev), and so had to be taken out.
Regarding Loose, he feels very clearly scum/scum-aligned to me, he sucks up to scum and knew of scum players, but did not reveal that information. I did go back and check the first page player post, however, and his role name is in black, rather than the red of scum or blue of town. Would give more substance to the idea of two scum left (because I'm not sure why he'd be distinguished as 3p otherwise), but he does still fulfill the same anti-town function regardless.
