This is a straight up lie.
iv's wagon was gaining steam as a counterwagon to Laplacian, and even frog, the one driving it, admitted that he wasn't going to let up on it.

Yeah, that's because that's a vast universe of difference between lying about being a Mason and lying about being a vigilante.
Math lacks the balls to explain why I'd fakeclaim vig on d2 as scum. Perhaps you'd care to give it a go?

nope. he was one two (2) votes. two. besides frogs, outworld was voting him, who was basically a non-presence. and, at the time where lapla was read much worse than iv was.
were you townreading iv
at all
on day 1, or did you fake a mason claim literally just to buy him time? if it's the former, why?

nobody at this table is stupid enough to go "hurr durr house claimed vig?? must be scum!!!".
I will straight up disregard all reason if you have a PR dream again. You can come back and be like, “I dreamt that Locke is a N2 Bulletproof Multitasking Cop and Self-Targeting Doctor,” and I will go, “Okay, Locke kill it is then.”
In post 4224, Datisi wrote:iv was still a very much possible misyeet. i think they were better off banking on the fact that nobody takes the "why isn't a mason dead?" too far.
I don't think you can say that House both wanted IV to be misyeeted for ??? reasons while also wanting to preserve IV alive so that a green IV flip doesn't make him look bad.
The other thing you said about him setting up a trajectory to push frogger seems ?? as he was one of the few people who did not push frogger yesterday - that was mostly me/mathblade/you/andres.

if you want to make the argument that iv "was gaining traction", you need to show that more people were willing to vote for him than frogs.

I just find the explanation that house!town had a different view of the game state to be simpler, cleaner and more likely than house!scum decided to make up an imaginary crisis to fakeclaim mason to get towncred to shove his partner into a meatgrinder? Have you read his scum!games? I don't really see him making similar type of plays as mafia.

And I'm not stupid enough to claim a role that gets me killed outright with no benefit to my team as scum.
Lying about being a vigilante made me a target to the real vig, true, but it also made me a target to scum.
It's the one claim that there's literally zero motive for scum to ever make because it draws the ire of the one towny in the game that can destroy them without majority consent.

well good thing that's not what i'm saying! i'm saying that he both retracted the claim because that opened the door for iv to potentially get suspected again, AND he didn't want to *say* that iv is scum due to them both surviving the night because that would leave him in an awkward position tomorrow where he'd have to do a weird backtrack! stop twisting my words!!
and he ended up not needing to because we did it for him?

the real vigilante is not stupid enough to see you as scum just because you fakeclaimed and would probably realize you're doing so in order to draw the kill; scum isn't gonna shoot themselves.

What dats is conveniently leaving out of that iv had already been a wagon of 4 once and still had plenty of suspicion on him and Fire was back to pushing it to counter Lapla.

I'm not twisting your words dear. I just don't think the natural reaction of a townie who fakeclaims mason and then unclaims mason to be that the person that the townie fakeclaimed with is suspicious and scummy for surviving the night?
Like how many mason fake claims have you seen anyway? How often does it happen that the next day when the masons un-claim they decide to start pointing fingers at each other for surviving the night?

Stop being a pedant. I'm obviously referring to frog.
I just woke up and bounced in here before my shower.

i have not seen mason fakeclaims in this caliber, ever. sure.
though a different question would be, how often does it happen that a claimed power role who did not die turns out to be scum?

You're scum with Andres.
I don't claim to know what you're motive is, I'm not in your PT.
Claiming there's no reason to shade the one person in the PoE that is least likely to catch a lim is horseshit, though.
