Tell me more about the why of that one please, while I keep reading.

VOTE: FurtiveGlance
Yeah you got me, as mafia I smoked Nero and Petapan but not BBT, so it was confusing to see his name on the deadlist. As a man with zero impulse control I simply had to remark on this, so I awkwardly called it weird. You're not allowed to claim mafia with other people but if hypothetically Fireisredsir was mafia with me, do you really think we'd both spot the kill we didn't do with our insane deduction skills and just go "yeah, that wasn't us" at the same time? The serious answer to this is that BBT was doing nothing and a POE scumread for literally everyone in the game, not the usual nightkill profile.

@Vivax would you argue Scum makes this post? Like why the vote there?
Why shouldn't scum make that post or vote Ircher?
Titus argued that Ircher was frozen, FG said Ircher wasn't on, then voted him anyway.
Correction: I voted Ircher in . I said Ircher wasn't on in .

Is this just you guessing that this game is a 17:4, or did I miss that info somewhere, or?
Ircher hasn't been on since this. It totally assumes 17/4 whereas I assumed 16/5 like other large games I've seen.
Ok....does the setup state how many scum and I missed it?
No, the setup states we don't know. The point is Ircher could be doing a sus TMI scum slip!

VOTE: Ircher

Uncrowned I voted someone.
Yeah cause when you see TMI as town you announce you‘re going to unvote if it‘s explained
As if burying Ircher at 9/11 votes could be called an interrogation
Yeah, if Ircher had given a list of 17/4 games either that he'd played in or just large theme games he'd spectated and it turned out 17/4 was the norm not 16/5, then I would have considered unvoting. But his return to the game was really lacklustre, it didn't seem proportionate to being wagoned up so hard. I don't know if you're calling me the 9/11 'burier', but I was actually the 4th 'burier' out of 11. If you mean that I was 'interrogating' Ircher in and below when he was on 9/11 votes, it wasn't really intended as interrogation, just some intensive questioning.

Can probably interpret the very aggressive defenses of his town status as some sort of scum trying hard to look right on my wrong guess.
Contemplating if Ydrasse gets the spot for that vote by Ircher, or S_S if I retract the TR after yet another FG def.

But damn, reading too much really does drive you nuts at times when you don‘t dismiss everything as superstition.
Turns you into some kind of incandescent anomaly, or a puddle. Funny how the mind works. I‘ll still take a concept of outer divinity over IT when it‘s the same recurring theme for millennia. Why does it seem to be so hard coded into us you think? And it‘s quite capable at times.
Is this just about Lukewarm or are you scumreading Andres or Mastina?


BBT does make more sense as a Vig shot, and no one else is claiming it. There's a possibility that scum!Vivax decided to smoke BBT to set up a Vig claim, but that just seems dumb. To that end, I'll shift my vote.

I don't really get why Roden would claim at daystart, as either alignment. The town!Roden idea that petapan could back his claim doesn't make a lot of sense because the message doesn't reveal alignment, and also Roden could just target someone else on another night. But scum!Roden has no need to claim frame 1 either, if anything it just gets him a lot of attention.

This is the primary reason I think Luke can't be scum.
I'd love to see a convincing perspective on why Luke actively decides to make this post as scum. Because otherwise, I agree that he's a pretty simple choice for PoE.
This is an underrated point. Lukewarm town for me as well, why start a wagon on your buddy out of nowhere?

I have seen several people ask why he would use his ability if he is town, but it feels you are skipping past how little productivity he claimed that it needed.

ngl, if I had a PR that only needed 5% I'm not really sure that I would not have ended up using it even if its bad, on the basis of "well its just 5%." With 17 townies alive, that is as a shift of the town average by -0.29% -- which does feel kinda irrelevant.

Like it only affects the scum kill count if the town is exactly inside the 75.00%-75.29% | 50.00%-50.29% | 25.00% - 25.29% before considering him.

5% would actually be irrelevant in 99.13% of all possible town productivity levels.

Hard disagree, to me both Peta and Nero were weird kills. Peta makes sense off the info Lukewarm gave, and Nero...idk, maybe him hinting he had some kind of scavenger role?
But scum seeing BBT play like that could assume he was hiding a good PR, and so he did. So why should it be weird, unless you knew the kills?

Kinda surprised Uncrowned isn't dead tbh, gave you quite a bit of fire
(Fire is probably scum #2, with Roden.)
I can't spot anything scummy about Roden, it's a placid tone
I can.

Aside from play, the claim is a scumclaim.
Mastina, I'm struggling to think of how this could be the case. I would say don't worry about sharing your argument, if Ircher's setup speculation was real then there are only 3 mafia left, I don't think scum fakeclaiming in future is a massive problem.

I mean honestly I still think that role should never be used because mailman is basically useless imo and if there are multiple such roles which have low percentages they can give scum a nightkill without doing much, if anything, for town

That said I guess I could see someone not agreeing

pedit: What I was getting at is it's easier to ignore the percentages when it's not in your role PM and your first response to me was just like "why would anyone ever not use a role" which I was kind of baffled by

That said now I remember you said you used the 5% version the point isn't as important

It's talking about a nightkill in a conversational way, and the obvious implication is that you would never nightkill Petapan because you were about to vote them. It's you giving yourself towncred and broadcasting it, like Obama with the medal.
