    The one thing that worries me is that if since no Molly has came forward yet, the scum take the chance to come forward as Molly before she does so then when the real one comes on she seems like the suspicious one.

    Just rereading the thread and will then cast a vote

    Oh wait, ninja'd be Jibril.

    ---------- Post automerged at 12:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:13 PM ----------

    By not be.

    Well I guess we now wait for any counterclaims to see where to go from regarding the Molly plan. I tend to have a feeling Jibril is the real thing, because I don't see a scum being so obvious about being against the idea etc. etc. and then coming out. It just seems like a not smart scum move. Unless I'm giving scum too much credit.

    Anyways this post is just going off memory, so will get back to you guys once done rereading.

    There's no logic behind it, but god damn that was a suspicious way of role revealing.

    I really also worry about scum pre emptively calling Molly. Tell me jb, why should we accept your claim?

    Looking at Jibril's previous comments, the RR seems plausible IMO. The second quote in particular seems really concerned with Molly's safety. It also would explain why Molly took so long to roleclaim.

    Well, we will see. If no second claim, its probably legit.

    Well, I had a 2000 word post on possible scenarios for day one/two Molly claims, but apparently most of them are useless now. Doesn't matter either way, I looked over the numbers and Molly claiming on Day Two was probably not a good idea. Too many chances for scum to get lucky.

    Anyway. I'm going to suggest to Marcone that he uses his power on Jibril on Day Four. That way, if this is a trueclaim, there's an at least 50/50 chance of getting the Dresden/Molly qt, which would be awesome.

    Wait Aekiel, isn't Marcone's powers to pick heads/ tails and a court and hopefully remove counters? How can he use that on Molly?

    Since I probably won't wake by the time day is over (unfortunate, I wanted to see how this Molly situation would play out), I'm going to leave a

    Lynch: Castiel

    Like I said before, I don't like his posting style, and he hasn't really said anything that would change my mind - the sneaky insinuation that post count directly correlates to activity doesn't help, since he still hasn't really said anything of importance.

    As far as Jibril is concerned, his playstyle so far certainly seems consistent with how I would act as Molly. That's definitely not any indication that he's telling the truth, but it's as far as I'm willing to go for now, without a counterclaim. That said, looking at it from a statistical point of view I agree that it's most likely to be a truthful claim.

    Writing down the voters as well would be ideal. At the moment:

    Castiel: 2 (Bill Door, Moridin)
    Schrodinger: 2 (Uncle Stojil, Castiel)
    Fontisian: 1 (Sesc)
    Zennith: 1 (fontisian)

    Majority needed to Lynch: 8.

    Considering that Bill Door and Moridin are both soft town-reads in my eyes and that Castiel is just as suspicious as Schrodinger, I'm tempted to change my vote. The thing holding me back for now is that he went to sleep, but if things stay as uncertain for a while longer, it could simply become the only viable solution.

    I may be interpreting it wrong, but the way it reads to me is that if Marcone picks a thrall and flips correctly, he'll wipe away that court's thralls. Suddenly thinking I might be wrong in that interpretation though.

    I'm pretty sure that Marcone just has to pick a court, as in Red/White, they don't have to name any specific players.

    Okay, as it is I'm okay with either Zennith or Schrodinger. People have covered the reasons for Schro being lynched, but something still feels off about Zennith to me.

    I pointed a post out earlier in the thread (here), but his post right after Jibril roleclaimed struck me as a deliberate attempt to doubtcast.

    Lynch: Zennith

    Sorry got really tied up at work and now need to drive to another city to start moving stuff as I'm moving houses. If I don't make it back in time for the deadline,

    Lynch: Castiel

    I know if needed Stojil will switch. I could potentially switch if I make it back but I am worried about a no lynch so that is there for now!

    It was an attempt to doubtcast, because I was doubtful. As we haven't seen any other claim, however, we don't really have a choice but to believe Jibril. Regarding the initial post you pointed out - meh, was just trying to stir some discussion about Dresden, because as a group we'd been focusing mostly on what Molly should do, and I was wondering what the best action would be if Molly didn't roleclaim.

    I can get on the Castiel bandwagon as well, he and schro both strike me as suspicious. That being said, Castiel is asleep, and while that's kind of bullshit reason not to vote for someone, it might be why I haven't voted for him yet.

    So, we have a Molly. And not a counterclaim either. Yeah, in that light, I think your post is way off, Zennith. Add to that your flip-flopping before (from yes to I dunno to let's do Aekiel's plan) and I think you are Mafia. So, No Lynch: fontisian, Lynch: Zennith.

    Hmm. My suspicion is assuaged for the moment.

    No lynch: Zennith
    Lynch: Schrodinger

    I'll be off to bed soon so this will be my last post.
