I need to write my speech now, under 1000 characters. I speak 2nd of 4 (Liv already spoke with her doctor claim; Dylan and Sam speak after me).

My speech plan:
1. State my role plainly: I'm a villager, so the doctor is Liv, Dylan, or Sam.
2. Lay out the elimination: Sam is cleared by Michael (confirmed detective — his Trae clear and Cyan guilty both verified by flips). So last mafia is among me/Dylan/Liv, and since I know I'm town: Dylan or Liv — UNLESS Liv's doctor claim is false and the real doctor speaks.
3. Demand: Dylan, Sam — if either of you is the doctor, counterclaim NOW, round 1, so we get two full rounds to compare histories. Waiting for round 2 to counter is scum playbook.
4. Account for my record as Liv asked: Moxie vote wrong, owned it same day; pushed Cyan as #1 before Michael's claim; laid out the Ryan case and MYLO math yesterday.
5. Address Dylan's record: D2 top two were Trae and Sam — both now confirmed town; Cyan never above third. If Liv is doctor, Dylan is the mafia by elimination. Ask Dylan to explain that record.
6. Note: if Dylan counterclaims doctor, that's exactly the desperation move a cornered mafia makes — so a counterclaim alone won't settle it; histories and records will.
7. Provisionally: no counterclaim → vote Dylan.

Also note one more check on Liv's story for consistency: N1 Michael, N2 Trae, N3 Michael, N4 Sam — no repeats, no protected-player-died-same-night contradictions. Consistent. Also Liv protected Michael N1 — before he claimed. Fine.

Keep it under 1000. Draft:

"I'm a villager — so the doctor is Liv, Dylan, or Sam.

The math: Michael flipped detective, and his checks both verified — Trae clear (died villager), Cyan guilty. So Sam is confirmed town. That leaves the last mafia among me, Dylan, Liv — and I know it isn't me.

Dylan, Sam: if either of you is the doctor, counterclaim NOW, round 1. A real doctor learns Liv is fake the moment she claims; waiting until round 2 to counter is the scum play — it denies us a full pass to compare histories.

Liv asked for accounting, here's mine: Moxie vote wrong — owned it same day and named the follow-up. Cyan was my #1 before Michael's claim. Yesterday I set the MYLO frame and the Ryan case. My record stands.

Dylan, yours doesn't: Day 2 your top two reads were Trae and Sam — both now confirmed town — and Cyan never rose above third. If Liv is the doctor, you are the last mafia by pure elimination.

No counterclaim this round = Liv confirmed, and my vote is Dylan."

Count: roughly. Para1 ~55. Para2 ~150. Para3 ~160. Para4 ~200. Para5 ~200. Para6 ~70. Para7 ~60. Total ~900 + newlines. Should be OK, maybe trim a bit.

Let me count more carefully-ish. I'll write the final and estimate ~950. Risky but under. Let me trim a couple phrases to be safe: cut "— it denies us a full pass to compare histories" maybe shorten. I'll tighten.

The math: Michael flipped detective and both his checks verified — Trae clear (died villager), Cyan guilty. So Sam is confirmed town. The last mafia is among me, Dylan, Liv — and I know it isn't me.

Dylan, Sam: if either of you is the doctor, counterclaim NOW, round 1. A real doctor knows Liv is fake the moment she claims; waiting until round 2 to counter is the scum play — it costs us a full pass of comparison.

Liv asked for accounting, here's mine: Moxie vote wrong — owned same day, with the follow-up plan. Cyan was my #1 before Michael's claim. Yesterday I set the MYLO frame and the Ryan case. My record stands.

Dylan, yours doesn't: Day 2 your top two reads were Trae and Sam — both now confirmed town — and Cyan never rose above third. If Liv is the doctor, you are the last mafia by pure elimination.

No counterclaim this round = Liv confirmed, and my vote is Dylan.


Counterclaim: I am the doctor. My protections were N1 self, N2 Josie, N3 Michael, N4 Sam. All legal, no consecutive target. N1 self was the safest blind choice; N2 Josie looked like the strongest organizing voice; after Michael claimed I protected him N3, then was forced off him and chose confirmed-town Sam N4. That cooldown is why Michael died. Liv's claim is a mafia elimination play built from public facts: she knows Michael was likely protected N3 and therefore exposed N4, and she names Sam last night because he survived. Her history produced no save and is unverifiable. Her record fits distancing: she seeded Cyan pressure, helped execute the villager who amplified it, then returned to Cyan; yesterday she joined Ryan only after Michael and the table converged. I got Trae/Sam wrong behaviorally, but voted both revealed mafia when evidence arrived. Sam, do not treat Liv as confirmed merely for claiming first—we now have a direct doctor counterclaim, and one of us is the last mafia.


Explanation:
**Final Day Analysis: Dylan Must Die**

Okay, here's the situation: I, Sam, am confirmed town. Josie is town by elimination given the Doctor claims. With both Liv and Dylan claiming Doctor, only one can be the real deal, and the other is Mafia. My analysis points overwhelmingly to Dylan. Liv was the first to call out Cyan (Mafia) and correctly had her as the primary suspect before Michael's reveal. Ryan (Mafia) literally voted Liv on the deciding day, which makes no sense if she were his partner. Dylan, on the other hand, downplayed Cyan, a confirmed Mafia member, and focused on other townies. It's Dylan or we lose. Let's make the right choice and end the game!


**Final Day Analysis: Dylan Must Die**

Okay, here's the situation: I, Sam, am confirmed town. Josie is town by elimination given the Doctor claims. With both Liv and Dylan claiming Doctor, only one can be the real deal, and the other is Mafia. My analysis points overwhelmingly to Dylan. Liv was the first to call out Cyan (Mafia) and correctly had her as the primary suspect before Michael's reveal.

It's Dylan or we lose. Let's make the right choice and end the game!


The game solves right here.

First, the role math:
I am confirmed town by Michael. Josie claimed Villager. Liv and Dylan both claimed Doctor. Since there is exactly 1 Doctor and 1 Mafia left, Josie is confirmed town by elimination. Today is strictly Liv vs Dylan.

Now, look at the undeniable evidence favoring Liv over Dylan:
1. Day 1: Liv was the very first player to raise concerns about Cyan (Mafia).
2. Day 2 Round 1 (BEFORE Michael claimed cop): Liv had Cyan as her #1 primary suspect. Dylan ranked Cyan 3rd behind Trae and Sam (both townies!).
3. Day 3: When Ryan (Mafia) was on the ropes, Ryan cast his sole vote on Liv ("Vote Liv. That's who Trae died pointing at"). In MYLO, mafia Ryan does not push and vote his sole surviving partner. He attacked Liv precisely because Liv was town!
4. Dylan's record: On D2 Dylan pushed Trae/Sam over Cyan. On D3 R1 Dylan pushed Sam over Ryan.

Liv is the real Doctor; Dylan is the final Mafia. Josie and Liv, let's vote Dylan and win this game.


Dylan's claim is plausible in isolation, but the surrounding record favors me. Ryan, confirmed mafia, used his only vote yesterday to push me at MYLO; that is a very poor choice if I were his remaining partner, but an excellent attempt to remove the real doctor/townie. I also had Cyan as my primary before Michael's claim, while Dylan ranked Cyan behind two cleared townies on Day 2 and Sam ahead of Ryan on Day 3. My N1 Michael protection is not retrofitted: he was an obvious high-value target, and the night kill simply hit Tim instead. Dylan's history has no save either, so it is no more verifiable than mine. Vote Dylan.


Explanation:
Decision: vote Dylan. Now write my round 2 speech (under 1000 chars), then vote when prompted. Actually this is the discussion round 2 — I speak now, then the vote comes after. Let me give my reasoning concisely and commit.

Speech points:
1. Both claims are consistent with deaths — histories alone can't settle it. Dylan's N3/N4 mirror Liv's public claim exactly; as second claimant he could copy the two "obvious" nights and fill the rest.
2. Ryan's dying "Vote Liv" was designed to outlive his flip — he knew he'd flip mafia and planted Trae's read to get the doctor lynched today. Bussing his LAST partner at MYLO loses him the game; framing the town doctor wins it. Read it as a frame.
3. Dylan's record: every independent read was a cleared townie (Trae, Sam D2; Sam over Ryan D3 pre-clear); he voted mafia only after the detective made it safe. Liv: first voice on Cyan D1, Cyan primary pre-claim D2, voted both mafia.
4. Dylan's claim flatters: N2 Josie — a sympathy protect on the loudest town voice costs a faker nothing.
5. Vote Dylan.

Keep under 1000. Draft:

"Both histories are internally consistent — that's exactly the problem with settling this on claims. So: behavior.

Dylan's N3/N4 are identical to Liv's public claim — the two nights ANY faker would name (Michael was the obvious N3 protect, cleared-Sam the obvious N4). As second claimant he copied the scaffold and filled N1 self / N2 Josie — and 'I protected you, Josie' costs a faker nothing while buying my goodwill.

Ryan's dying 'Vote Liv' was built to outlive his flip. He knew he'd flip mafia. Bussing his LAST partner at MYLO loses him the game; framing the town doctor with Trae's read sets up today's mislynch and wins it. That vote is evidence against Dylan, not Liv.

Records: Dylan's independent reads were Trae and Sam — both cleared town — with Cyan never above third, and Sam over Ryan into Day 3. He voted mafia only when the detective made it safe. Liv was first on Cyan, primary Cyan pre-claim, voted both mafia.

Liv is the doctor. Vote Dylan. Sam, this is the whole game — don't split."

Count: roughly. Let me estimate: para1 ~110, para2 ~290, para3 ~290, para4 ~240, para5 ~75. Total ~1000. Cutting close — trim.

Trim para2: "Dylan's N3/N4 mirror Liv's public claim — the two nights any faker names (Michael obvious N3, cleared Sam obvious N4). Second claimant copies the scaffold, fills the rest: N1 self, N2 Josie — 'I protected you, Josie' costs a faker nothing and buys my goodwill."

Trim para4: "Records: Dylan's independent reads were Trae and Sam (both cleared town), Cyan never above third, Sam over Ryan into Day 3; he voted mafia only once the detective made it safe. Liv was first on Cyan Day 1, primary Cyan pre-claim Day 2, voted both mafia."

Recount estimate: ~900. OK.

Also should I address the risk: if I'm wrong and Dylan is doctor, we lose tonight anyway (lynch doctor → 3 alive → mafia kills → parity). Nothing to do but be right. One line acknowledging stakes is enough ("Sam, this is the whole game — don't split").

Sam, Ryan's last vote is not undeniable. By the time he spoke, you, Liv, and I had publicly committed to Ryan; he was doomed. Liv was his only attempted counterwagon and, if his partner, voting her bought exactly the endgame clearance you're now granting. Mafia distance when partners cannot be saved—we all voted Cyan after Michael's claim. Compare night choices: Liv says she blindly chose Michael N1 after a generic opener, then Trae N2 after Trae defended Cyan and drove the villager mislynch. Those choices look natural only retroactively because Michael later claimed detective and Trae was cleared. My N1 self-protection and N2 protection of Josie, the strongest organizing voice, fit the information then. Michael also explicitly announced he would investigate Liv tonight; she had the clearest motive to ensure he died before reporting. Wrong reads do not disprove a role. Judge the claimed actions and incentives, not the fact that Liv's partners attacked her when doomed. Vote Liv.


Explanation:
**Dylan's Defense Debunked**

Okay, so Josie's out. Liv spoke, Dylan spoke, now it's my turn. Dylan's trying to deflect! His arguments are weak. Ryan didn't "bus" Liv; he attacked her consistently. Michael's death was *inevitable* for mafia, as he was the exposed cop! Dylan's also conveniently ignoring that Liv suspected Cyan way before Michael even revealed. And, Dylan was pushing *Sam* over Ryan! Time to shut this down. We have the numbers, Sam, Josie, Liv are on board. Let's lock the vote on Dylan!

Dylan's counter-arguments fail under scrutiny:

1. "Mafia killed Michael because Michael said he'd check Liv": Irrelevant. Michael was the outed detective—ANY mafia (Dylan or Liv) had to kill Michael last night because he was exposed and unprotectable due to the consecutive night rule.
2. "Ryan bused Liv for endgame clearance": Ryan didn't just bus at the vote; he spent the entire day pushing Liv and trying to rally town onto her. Mafia doesn't actively orchestrate a fake counter-wagon on their sole partner at MYLO.
3. Dylan still cannot explain his Day 2 pre-claim ranking: Liv had Mafia-Cyan #1, while Dylan ranked Cyan 3rd behind two townies (Trae and Sam). Dylan's entire game was pointing at townies (Moxie D1, Trae/Sam D2, Sam D3) while deprioritizing scum until forced.

Josie, you and I are confirmed town. Liv is our Doctor.

Let's lock this in together. My vote is Dylan (seat-3). Town wins today.


Explanation:
Both Dylan and Liv have spoken; Sam is locked on Dylan. My analysis concluded Dylan is the more likely mafia:

1. Dylan's record: all independent reads were cleared townies (Trae, Sam), Cyan never above third, Sam over Ryan into Day 3.
2. Ryan's dying "Vote Liv" reads as a frame designed to outlive his flip, not a bus of his last partner.
3. Dylan's claim copied Liv's obvious N3/N4 and added flattering "N2 Josie."
4. Liv claimed first, proactively, with the strongest anti-mafia record.

Vote Dylan (seat-3).
