    I'm curious and I don't really see how it hurts town. Your ability to communicate wouldn't give any boon I'm aware of since you've already informed everyone playing that you're aligned and that you confirm each other are town. Beyond discussing gambits where scum can't see I guess. Since you've claimed an investigative role, and blab can apparently town!firm players I also don't think you could paint more of a target on your back without claiming a kill ability or something equally ridiculous.

    Feel free not to answer though, I'm not that interested.

    Kalas: I think it was you that mentioned an NK dependent ability being bullshit. That would be true, because the ability I planned to use was not dependent on NKs. A facet of my role means that what I had planned is no longer possible.

    I guess I'm going to have to wait to become uber powerful. D:

    That I'd really like a cop to be in this game.

    Okay, my thoughts on the no kill:

    There was no kill because of:

    a) Luckylee being the target and commuting out of the way
    b) MathBlade's ability explosion stopping at least one kill (being passingly familiar with the A-Team and their zero deaths policy I'd say it's not unbelievable for there to have been an ability that prevents kills for a night)
    c) Scum deciding to no kill.
    d) Someone bulletproof was targeted.

    Of the four I'd put B as the most likely given the evidence we have so far. C is absolute last and is contradicted by Mathblade's account of what happened last night. I can't see a world where scum would choose to no kill based on Day One, but I could see a world where scum!Mathblade targeted someone who then survived the kill, at which point a vanilla gambit was hatched.

    This is especially possible after the amount of paranoia stirred up by Citrus' role yesterDay. As well as that, I seem to recall Mathblade claiming that whoever hired her would be protected that night. Given that she has now claimed to have no knowledge of her abilities this strikes me as rather odd and potentially a sign of scum lies.

    I'm not fully sold on that idea yet. Further investigation is required.

    More coming, but slowly because I'm tired as shit.

    I'm oscillating between Blab/Titus/??? and Rubicon/Lyrium/Sloth or Kalas at this point. I'm fairly certain that we're not up against a 4 man scum team now, given the number of third party roles (or likely ones at least).

    Given Citrus' 3P flip I'm less certain of Fontisian's alignment as well, but I can't see her fitting in well with either of those two scumteams.

    I'm leaning more towards Rubicon/Lyrium/Kalas than Blab/Titus at the moment, but I'm going to need to go through the thread before I can substantiate those claims. I'm done with work for the week tomorrow morning so I'll go through the thread and get my thoughts in order after that.

    You guys are making me want a you-fonti team so bad. It's probably not that easy though.

    ---------- Post automerged at 01:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:46 AM ----------

    Why those teams exactly?
    Why are those people scummy?
    Why not others?
    What about Citrus' flip makes you unsure about fontisian?
    Why doesn't she fit on those teams?
    Etc etc

    Titus, its very simple if you were masoned then explain what it means to people because if I don't know what it means I don't care. Also, just because you say it doesn't make it true.

    I just think its convenient that your confirmable role check thing was delayed by yet another night.

    As for thinking I'm on a scum team, then get me lynched. Or do what Kalas keeps asking people to do wo doing it himself, make a case.

    Something happened that blocked me from something last night. I have no idea what it what it was but I assume a role blocker unless it was part of the time travel stuff but it doesn't quite make sense since other people were able to use items or abilities? I'm not sure since I only know that it didn't work rather then that I was role blocked so that's all I have to say about it.

    Unvote

    That is out of context. Lyrium was saying you were complicared and believable.

    ---------- Post automerged at 08:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:58 AM ----------

    Suppose Mathblade is scum. Then how does your analysis change?

    I will walk you through why C is the least likely option.

    A) Luckylee commutes and was the scumkill target.

    This makes sense in a scum Sloth world. Luckylee was threatening to kill Sloth. Scum try to kill Luckylee to avoid a conftown. They would send Sloth to kill him to avoid my ability. Since Lucky was not a vig, neither kill happened.

    When I start pointing at Math and Sloth, they reflexively wagon me. This ignores the reasons why I was wagoned in the first place and partially cleared.

    B) If Mathblade activated a pure Zero Death policy, why not say so? Why does she vote someone who she likely saved (me)? Why didn't she say this was her flavor thusexplaining why Lyrium was blocked? That would confirm Lyrium tried to kill last night. We can force Lyrium to explode then or be outed asthe scumkiller.

    Mathblade's general reluctance to out her flavor prior to losing it makes no sense. The flavor alone does not indicate protective and to hire her. I think roleblocker of one person when I think of A team.


    C) Scum no kill is viable in a town Titus world. How many scumteams would kill if killing could likely cost them one of their own?

    ---------- Post automerged at 08:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:15 AM ----------

    D) This is unlikely as there has been zero CC for Luckylee.

    ---------- Post automerged at 08:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:17 AM ----------

    Derp typo. B is least likely.

    ---------- Post automerged at 08:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:18 AM ----------

    Stop bitching about your lack of mislynch options and bus.

    I did not say anything about protecting anyone I hired. I was vanilla, am vanilla, and always will be vanilla.

    ---------- Post automerged at 08:38 ---------- Previous post was at 08:36 ----------

    Take your own advice. I am third party. If people lynch the vanilla third party instead of Scumhunting then there are problems.

    ---------- Post automerged at 08:40 ---------- Previous post was at 08:38 ----------

    Secondly @Titus I was first today. You OMGUS'd. Again quit making up shit people can research.

    Lynchable List

    Luckylee Commuter cleared by majority through behavior
    Zenzao Derp hammer and reaction cleared as likely town by most
    Citrus Dead
    Snowvon Third Party and people do not want to lynch there. I amthe vlosest and I still would want Math first.
    Lyrium
    Titus
    Blab
    The Masons
    Doctor Whooves
    Kalas
    Sloth
    Aekiel
    MathBlade Scum but claimed Third Party
    TerRaine Obvtown to most
    Rubicon
    Fontisian Scum trying here but general consesus is that Day 1 end was tiwn Fonti
    Atum Needs to post more but is pretty clear


    The gamestate forces scum to work together for an ml or push a lurker useless lynch. They cannot do the latter after Citrus. Amazing how Rubicon and Sloth push a lurker lynch.

    ---------- Post automerged at 08:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:41 AM ----------

    Derp don't push ne biut work together out of nowhere.

    ....*facepalm*

    You are just trying to gather fuel for your mislynch. People aren't voting me because they can tell I am telling the truth.

    How am I pushing to lynch you when I have eliminated you as lynchable today? I can realize scum can be cleared for a day. Do you have any other problems with my pool or just pissed there is not enough room to operate?

    Sorry I couldn't tell because of all the bad formatting. And I am frustrated at your derping. I am not scum. I can't believe I saved someone as third party and came back to this mess. Just ugh.

    I don't have "master plans". There is no "operation". I just want to live and that incorrect label is just so much derp.

    Stop trying to persuade me you are townsiding and show me you are townsiding if you are.

    Here's a hint. That starts by voting Sloth.

    Here's a hint. I think you are scum. So by voting Sloth I think I would be scum siding. Make an argument or I don't care.

    You mean like the arguments I have been making. Read my posts.

    If you are townsiding (which you can't), this should remind you of the last game we played together. I was conftown, you still FoSed me.
