    These are the things that make me slightly wary. Math, whatever you do make sure it isn't based off something that no one else could know (say, "I think Rubicon is the role that Fred was in our third game together", but less explicitly, as an example of what I think is either outlawed or extremely dodgy).

    no no no lyrium. I want to see this. XD

    --

    Let's see.

    Me, Mathblade, Lyrium, Snowvon, Kento and Malakittens are town.

    Titus isn't aligned with Qgqqqqq based on his outburst at that one post he thought implied they were partners.

    That leaves the following teams:

    Atum & his fluffiness & Qgqqqqq & TerRaine
    Atum & Qgqqqqq & TerRaine & Zenzao
    Atum & his fluffiness & TerRaine & Titus
    Atum & TerRaine & Titus & Zenzao
    Atum & his fluffiness & TerRaine & Zenzao
    Atum & his fluffiness & Qgqqqqq & Zenzao
    Atum & his fluffiness & Titus & Zenzao
    his fluffiness & TerRaine & Titus & Zenzao
    his fluffiness & Qgqqqqq & TerRaine & Zenzao

    Atum is scum in every team except the last two.

    The very last team team listed (TerRaine/Qgqqqqq/Zenzao/fluffiness) is notable because all four names were ON the Sloth wagon. Which I think would be surprising.

    Atum -> 7 teams
    Zenzao -> 7 teams
    his fluffiness -> 7 teams
    TerRaine -> 7 teams
    Qgqqqqq -> 4 teams
    Titus -> 4 teams

    It also follows that there is at least one scum in each of the following pairings:

    Atum / Zenzao
    Atum / his fluffiness
    Atum / TerRaine
    Atum / Qgqqqqq
    his fluffiness / TerRaine
    Zenzao / his fluffiness
    Zenzao / TerRaine

    So then you have no problems with what Lyrium is clearly doing as code but do have problems with crumbs? That is weird. And why not bring it up earlier when I was talking with Titus.

    You guys can probably see why I wanted to lynch atum.

    Again, that screws with town extremely, as BG's top read is likely to be investigators top read, and relies on picking out who exactly will be killed.

    Honestly, I have no clue what Lyrium is doing most of the time. But yes, I do have a problem with it and it has been getting more and more explicit. I'm not sure if it's in the rules or not, but I think it might well be.

    And what about me and Titus? Did you have a problem then? What we were doing was googleable if you knew what to google.

    And then you know, which reduces the limiting but doesn't mean that you'll share. Besides, nicknames/etc. could be used - and in this crowd, it could easily be something from RL.

    That's all but using out of thread knowledge to communicate, which I definitely out. It's an extreme, but I've felt it drifting closer for a long time.

    Mathbladw, I don't have a perfect memory. I'm not going to delinate what I was or was not comfortable with, because I don't remember it. But yes, the out of game relationship that you and a number of other players have brought up has made me varyingly uncomfortable at different times that it could be drifting towards behavior that I find suspect/consider out of bounds.

    Here's an example - the weird crumbing questions that Lyrium has asked at times (and others), like the one about superheroes, is something I felt comfortable answering, because whilst I didn't feel it contributed anything., nor did I think it added anything that only she had a chance to understand.
    But if, say, Gazglum was to ask a similar question and only of me, I'd be a bit more concerned about answering - because I have a relationship with him from previous games, (and from other things that couldn't be Google'd) and I'd be worried about the implications of my answer.

    Do you get what I'm saying?

    My answer to Lyrium, everyone is on an even playing field to interpret. An answer to Gazglum, and suddenly there's an unbalance - which will happen naturally (you are more knowledgeable of Titus/Malakittens play, for example, and so have a better meta to compare them against), but is some thing to avoid and minimize, for a more even playing field for all.

    Sorry, xposted. Thanks, apologize for that.

    End diversion.

    Oh I am not more knowledgable with Malakittens play in the slightest. Rubicon knew a lot more than me. I am researching her to help see the play. :/ This is my first forum game with her (if memory serves). We met for the first time face to face in November. :$

    I took that question at face value...

    Though your Dragon answer did make me consider the possibility you were town, just for a moment.

    So did I. But clearly some meaning is being drawn from it, though I don't know what. But the point is that to someone else it could mean more.

    And really? I felt Dragon the obvious answer...I nearly went with something else because of it.

    Posts like this one count as playing imo. He seems apathetic as hell, but he does stuff every once in a while. Is that what you mean?

    Q, I think Lyrium just asks questions like that to get to know people. That's my assumption anyway.

    Yeah it'd be nice to know if he had the same investment into solving the game as I do/
