I don't have this theory though. @_@.
I have possible explanations.
We know that unless scum has additional abilities not categorized under a night action that they can't hand out shards and kill in the same night.

Rhea initially assumed that Medea tried to kill them at night and that, *that* was why there was no kill that night.
I pointed out the assumption she was making that the scum didn't hand out shards instead. Or at least I thought she was making that assumption.

I do not see a reason to half-ass a shard. Either we want a powered up town demon or we don't. There should not be a middle ground. Because it just gives scum control over who is and isn't demonified based on their abilities.
This makes sense right?

It's an obviously town role that doesn't benefit the scum team at all, except if they coincidentally target me

- Scum can probably self-distribute shards. They chose to do this last night. Does this imply that they self-distributed and opted to not kill? I don't believe so.
- Medea claimed a demon on D1. I am running on a theory (perhaps others) that there was 1 town demon and 1 scum demon present on D1.
- If scum could self-distribute and make them all demons by D2 then based on the original wincon they could win by like D3. I believe the original count was something like 6 or 7. They coiuld be halfway to their goal.
- We're at medium now, this means more than 2. We can lowball it as 3 and imply one of the scum converted to a demon. Nobody has outright claimed they're a demon right now.

More importantly, why is there no stopping and reconsidering from the thread at large with this new info?

I asked FF in discord if medea ever true claimed as scum before.

We're processing a lot of different claims and information right now.

Just a reminder that Pooky replying snarkily to suspicion directed at him does not absolve any of his horrendously scummy behavior last Day and we should not just continue to overlook him because he has cute quips lined up in response to valid allegations.

I will continue to repeat this until he is limmed.

I'm not scumreading medea.

I think you're reacting to my reply to notsci?

My point was that his viewpoint that scum would start with a demon, means that medea is scum given we were at
LOW
on shards.

I was pointing out the implication of that viewpoint, and not saying I think medea is scum.

I implied I believe they did both. Borkie specifically implied that scum can multi-task.

You seem to be arguing about whether unwnd used his role optimally or not, but it's unclear if you think he is lying

Like, holy shit, I just went after Unwnd for not handing a shard out to Annie.
FF was asking questions of LLD about their claim,
I asked a questin in hydra about Medea.
I'm bugging Manatee about their change in tone.

Plus some traditional pings here and there. we've been noting.
So why do you think we aren't reacting to roles?

A sample Role PM is just that

An sample. Even then, factional kill is separate. I think a member can choose to kill and one of them can self-distribute with the multitask clause in play

Yeah yeah you get it now Ceph thanks

Let the record state all this talk is just understanding mechanics

Right now I'm thinking that the reason Medea did not get a counterclaim is because scum had no incentive to claim

I really feel like town would've? I'm starting to believe in Dunnstral's world

It looks like a factional ability to me, given the way it's worded.

I suppose it's not impossible that scum also have a non-factional shard distributor ability, but that seems pretty broken, even with the alternate wincon modification that happened.


@Notsci?
No reply to my posts about the Low shardcount day 1?
