    I request waiting for Newcomb's stamp to see what he says. I don't know whether you caught it but this is actually my first WItchhunt and I don't want to be made responsible for this decision.

    So, sure, they can say "he's lying", and then I can be like "well here's why I claimed Oracle because I thought it was the witch throwout role, thanks for giving me the last witch"

    It's not a thing they'd do.

    You overestimate how friendly a town would be to you after you get counterclaimed lying about your role to save the person the town thinks is scum LOL

    Also "outting" isn't really about what you'd assume. You wouldn't know they were a witch, they could just be the real town oracle lol.

    I'm responsible for it.

    I just basically meant that I only want the townclears' opinions on whether or not we should go ahead and that a "consensus" doesn't necessarily matter to me as much.

    If one of Newcomb/Vaimes STRONGLY objects, I'd reconsider, but Newcomb's concerns I did my best to alleviate and Vaimes hasn't seen anything yet.

    So I'm comfortable with just going ahead and asking for the claim, and overnight whoever hasn't caught up can catch up.

    The only reason you thought the oracle was likely a witch was statistics wasn't it...? Based on the % chance...

    In a vacuum, yes, but I only hardclaimed Oracle after looking at claimed roles and deciding it was about 75-80% likely that Oracle was rolled into one of the five witch role slots.

    I also assumed a town Oracle would see what I was doing and strongly consider a Shadow/Cobalt world before outing that I was lying. It's also possible the town Oracle had a greencheck on me which would've worked out spectacularly.

    Either way, I didn't expect a counterclaim and if I had gotten one it would've most likely been from a witch, which is why they wouldn't.

    Though I will say, for a witch to counterclaim oracle, they must have a clearly crumby progression on their peek, so if they a) threw it away and didn't consider having someone claim it or b) were considering having jari or manasi claim it, then it doesn't help the hypothetical final witch or tom to counter and have to pretend someone is their peek, hoping that their entire progression on that person fits. (see: you trying to claim a peek on someone whose progression clearly didn't fit lol)

    I have words that would be amusing but I don't think I can say them ethically.

    Either way this is a good result though.

    Yeah, I honestly was sweating the most when people were trying to put together how my peek was crumbed and if it even made sense.

    I pulled some bullshit out of my ass to try and make my claim more solid for the sake of the gambit, but it took so much strength to not roll over and be like "yeah it doesn't make sense because he wasn't my peek lmfao"

    Dels, since you're around you can start if you feel comfortable, by claiming Fanatic or Not Fanatic.

    It's probably the avatar.

    Oh, Cobalt's FPS. There's only upside here.
    Cobalt probably shouldn't have claimed his actual role but whatever let's move on.

    Like you can try to make me feel crazy for thinking shadow is scum here but the entire thread acted like i was overreacting when i pointed out how your claim was clearly a lie, and i was right, so, i'm gonna tentatively side with myself for the time being lol

    I'm not really hiding my identity except nominally so you can feel free to doubt my historical claims given you don't know who I am but I'm not really lying.

    If you want to play a guessing game you can also do that while we wait for Newcomb or the Fanatic.

    Weird way to define "on fire".

    I don't like guessing games.

    But no, I wasn't doubting you. It was a compliment, geez.

    I'm sure you'll enjoy being more frustrated by my refusal to simply accept compliments when given in future time.
