You could arguably use it to identify town by seeing if nobody died that night.

Also, just a neat thought but what if you were a scum babysitter that could take someone with you if the town blew you up.

er, maybe? but I'll be honest, even with you saying that right here I'm still not sure how that would work

also, that is a neat thought! just sadly not a reality that we live in

kinda might as well, yeah

I feel like the only person who would kill Cephrir here is Menalque. Does anyone have a refutation of that?
I prefer they, thanks :)

No, that was our slot who told Gamma to concede, and it was out of consideration for skitt because we were playing in a hydra.

uh. whut lol

I mean I have the sarky refutation of "well clearly someone would because they did" but mostly I have no idea of what logic you're following to think that I and only I would kill ceph?

Who is Cephrir threatening by being alive? His death feels like it can allow you to say "Cephrir townread me and died" and that's it

Too wifom for me, not to mention I don't usually read in that deeply to NKs.
I didn't even stop to think if Cephrir dying would hurt Mena's chances. So going that extra step wasn't even there.

and if I'd killed you as scum then my defence would have been "that's way too blatant a kill for me to make, therefore I'm town"

if I were scum I could spin it either way, and yes, I have made kills on people who townread me before when I've been scum but generally speaking not when they are the only person who doesn't want me dead. I would have been about 500% better off if I were scum killing you, then appealing to reason to everyone else, and hoping that ceph would back me up

or do you disagree with that assessment?

you're confbiasing so hard, dwlee

what do you expect town!me to do? go "that's a kill I'd make as scum" in response to seeing the ceph flip?

I think anyone would have been better off killing me tbh, but the only one who really seems to benefit from killing Cephrir is you which is why I think it's an indicator for you. It's not just "What is the probability that menalque would kill cephrir as scum" it's "what is the probability that menalque is scum given cephrir got murdered"
I prefer they, thanks :)

any scum that is not me distinctly benefits from you staying alive because they are aware that you are horrendously tunnelled on me

ceph was a broadly towny slot who I think only I was expressing any doubts about in the first place?
