I'm having a lot of 502 Bad Gateway errors tonight. Freaking annoying!
At least we agree on one thing.
There is so much wrong with your post. Firstly, you assume that D3 Frankenstein is town. Secondly, you assume the Kingmaker is coming forth and claiming even though he is mafia. Lots of excuses for a mafia kingmaker not doing that and getting away with it. Thirdly, the bus driver can mess up it as well. Fourthly, you need D5/N5 bus driver to be town as well. Doesn't matter the alignment of Frankenstein, the bus driver can mess up things with meaning it and without meaning it. This is just too much to having a chance to work.
I do not assume that Dr. Frank, Kingmaker, or Driver are town. I assume if they are mafia, they are likely to play along if the town agrees to the plan, because if they don't, then they get lynched after claims are made.
For example:
Kingmaker doesn't claim - We find out who it had to be and lynch him the next day.
Dr. Frank doesn't switch - As soon as we see king still in the game, and no dead role is, we lynch him
Bus moves target - Why would a townie drive a declared kingmaker (ok, so this plan does not work well if the king is a confirmed townie)? We find a dead role in the game with the kingmaker still in, we lynch the bus driver.
Yes, a dead townie is good for you, isn't it? You wouldn't want to get a townie back in the endgame, do you?
What you conveniently forgot is that it has also a weak form of lynch immunity. So a lynched scum can be brought back with it. You even mentioned "lynched" in your post. We saw with Mal that the alignment was not revealed even though it was a lynch. I think your reasoning here is far out since you ignore about everything we know about the role having seen it in play.
A dead townie is not good for me. A failed town lynch is - which is could have happened if Mal came back. You seem very sure Mal is a townie, even though you were willing to vote for him - even claiming to attempt to lock him. If Mal came back in the endgame, could you trust him? Or would you use another day relynching him to get his alignment?
you are arguing my point - of course it is a soft form of lynch immunity. That immunity is countered somewhat by Dr. Frank, and I chose to use it in that manner.
Why is somebody lynched when he had last laugh most likely to be townie? The town always lynches some townies . See Ankeli last day.
So getting this role back, will give you a chance on getting a mafia buddy that was lynched back. You simply have to NK the last voter. This is a gamebreaker for the town at lylo.

I assume the first sentence here should read scum. If Mal was townie, I am sorry, but that is the chance I took. Again, you seem convinced of Mal being a townie, because if Mal was mafia we would be in the same situation now as your second sentence. And that was the situation I was trying to avoid.
See above. More clearly here that you knew about the lynch imunity as well. That's exactly the losing scenario I outlined above. So that role is best out of the game isn't it? Unless you know Mal was town and want a 2nd shot at rescuing a scum buddy.
The biggest complaint you have is that what if we lynch a mafia and he comes back later in the game. This is exactly what I was trying to avoid with Mal. You base the entire argument around the fact that Mal is town - how are you so sure that is true? If you are unsure if Mal is town, how are we in a worse position now than before I made the switch?
I really dislike the cognitive dissonance I seem to be reading in the post. It could be because Moar is convinced I am scum, but it could also come from being convinced Mal is town.
Vote: Moar
