WotUNeed we're delaying the inevitable at this point. I have tomorrow morning my timezone to be around but after midday checking in here is going to be rare. I'm willing to follow your lead and take the loss with you if that is what should happen. Of course I'd love to win but I haven't exactly been that awesome so a loss wouldn't be inappropriate for me. It's fine with me. My plan for Wednesday evening had been to take some time to summarize where we seemed to be in terms of the potential cases against both people and see where your head was at, but between the expected packed day at work and some other crap, by the time I actually got to the point of sitting down at my computer to do so, I ended up falling asleep instead. I also expect to be slammed again today, so if you'd like to end the game by this deadline, we can just do something. Though I suppose I can try to mock something up now. Might as well end this like I started it; half asleep, distracted, scatter-brained, and rambling. Long post probably incoming unless I pass out in the middle.

Nope, scratch long post, I'm tired again and was basically retreading old ground as I tried to type up two potential narratives.
Basically, we have one of these teams:
Cynthia-Az: By design or necessity, Cynthia and Az hard distanced throughout the game. Cynthia kept her vote parked on Az most of D1 and most of D2, but made soft suggestions of why it might be reasonable to think Az wasn't scum throughout D1. The towncred that came from staying on Azwagon drew two people to visit her N2, and they got killed. Identifying the cop and leaving him alive is a WIFOMy tactic to get more towncred (+ it couldn't have been predicted that we'd be at endgame). Prior to the revelaton that Albie is town, she makes an Albie argument only when it looks like I might have investigated popstop.
Popstop-Az: Popstop stayed off the Azwagon D1 and managed to successfully get a mislynch out of that. Az tossed a town read his way Day 2, and popstop waited until his partner was at L-1 to jump on the wagon and hammer so that he didn't avoid Azwagon two days in a row. Two people visited popstop N2 because his play was sloppy enough that they were suspicious (and they expected us to somehow magically know that they were targeting possible scum instead of probable town?) With the pressure of having to deal with a useless partner off the table, popstop builds cases against the two potential mislynch targets and uses the newly-confirmed knowledge that I'm the cop to try to bluff his way into a win.
Meh. The Cynthia-Az plan still seems convoluted, and the popstop-Az plan seems too... lazy to be correct. But one of them has to be the answer.
Albie, I'll go ahead and pick something to vote for if you want to just end this (but I warn you again: my record in this game is terrible). Just to complicate things even more, though, if you think more time would help you, you also have the option of letting the deadline expire and making your choice on Day 4. And also, I should be back to catch up Thursday evening, so you can still drop a vote on not-the-person-I'm-voting-for. I will, unfortunately, likely not have time to read this at work tomorrow, though, so I'm afraid I won't be around at the same time as you.
But in this case, I'm going to trust that players who have been confirmed town in their deaths wouldn't have made random visits to a player they thought was likely to be Az's scum partner (and both Narwhals and Ginger posted as much) and Vote: Cynthia.
Having done my part in digging this Town's grave, pre-work naptime can resume.

I'll have to take one final look at this all this morning and come to a decision. More time won't help me because I won't be available this weekend as I'll likely be too drunk from my birthday.

Ok, well I started to sit down to try and look at this all once more but I simply cannot afford the time anymore. My work obligations are just too much today. I started to see myself just launching into the same rabbit holes Iβve been down for days and days already and not really coming up with anything new at this point. I donβt know why but I canβt seem to shake the feeling that Popstop-Az seems right. I canβt tell if itβs the tunneling that Iβve had in this direction the whole game or what. But I would think I could tunnel out of that given that I now know there is a 50% chance Iβve been right. Perhaps I just want to feel good about that? I agree the Cynthia-Az team does seem more convoluted but at the same time I feel like it actually makes it seem more of like they had to roll with the punches. Iβm feeling like there was less organization here (and, yes, Iβm taking any credit away from Az that may well exist and I donβt know it) than what youβve outlined would lead us to believe and it was more a matter of putting out fires and dealing with a less than helpful partner. I donβt discount the possibility that Azβs game play was pre-planned. Basically, donβt come off yourself and get too jumpy, too defensive and too narrow-sighted. In fact, just kind of stay in the background and even appear scummy and Iβll do the heavy lifting. That is the part that I canβt buy but then I think that would be the case for either Popstop or Cynthia if in fact Az simply played poorly and it wasnβt part of the plan. Anyway, last time around I thought I was following my instincts and really that ended up just focusing me on trying to get one person out and that didnβt work β in this case, that would mean a vote for popstop. Iβm going to try the opposite and itβs a 50/50 bet at this point which is better odds than I had last time so Vote: Cynthia.
Criticize away. I am so ready to be done and even though I want to win so badly, I have to work and this game became the distraction I knew it would become and then some but its time to stop. I thought I would have died days ago lol. To echo your words, Cynthia if you're town and I have just f**ked this up, I sincerely apologize for doing so. :(

Of course. I literally sat on my computer and typed out a whole reason why you are scum as I started going into why I'm even this far into the game and how you wouldn't kill me because its too obvious since we've gone back and forth so much and I started going down that deep rabbit hole again that I was trying to avoid and had no more time for so...you're welcome.
YOU OWE ME NUDES.

Borrowing this from Libra at the end of May's RT: I felt it was appropriate to the current situation.

This pisses me off to no end. I kept telling myself the simplest answer is the best answer and popstop has always been the simplest answer.
I hate me. :(
