Oh, there's no majority? Then [Vote] Words.
To begin with, Words alone doesn't confirm Meta if Meta isn't sane. But even ignoring the possible inclusion of sanity, then yes, we have 2-3 doors to open... but with no comparison between the cops, we have no idea who could be lying about even being a cop and just trying to get us to lynch their target. I mean, even if Meta's telling the truth, that doesn't mean the other two are. And, again, if the targets are generic innocents there's no way for them to verify their innocence (as a claim could) and that means easy mislynches. I'd rather deal with the cops and just lynch someone based on suspicions as normal tomorrow if they all check out than leave us open to being misled at a critical time. Really, the three targets just leaves things way too open to manipulation, because if the one target is protected and one "cop" is killed then we get the other twos' reports; if one of the three targets dies then the report of the person who targeted them is worthless (or nonexistent, as Holy indicated might be the case).
As much as I appreciate the support, given that I'm already kinda suspicious of you I'd rather we not use you, or anyone who volunteers, as the target, because there likely is a godfather role that could screw this up.

Words being a good apple, would mean that meta's integrity is gone, whoever the mafia target next also determines who they find the most threatening as well. You also have to consider by investigating 3 people in 1 night we have 3 other doors to open, two at the least.
The best case is we determine the ally, get rid of a mafia member, and lower the potential group by 2-3.

I know I'm innocent so I don't care, and if you're all getting bad (or conflicting) information, I'm going to be screwed over anyway (because someone is bound to investigate me eventually). At least I can help the town figure out what's going on with this cop issue, and if it gets me killed in the end as long as town wins I don't really care. This cop problem needs to be figured out.
