No it wouldn't. It would be very broken. A transformed scum could just out their scumpartners.

Ooh. Good point. I don't know what happens if scum target me, I will ask the mod. This role is a bit powerful, but there is a power limiter on it that I will NOT be sharing, for obvious reasons. I maintain that I am not a third party, still.

Then I guess it is a habit :lol:

Sometimes (often?) I have null reads on someone, which will only go one way or the other based on associative tells with someone else -- which I can't get until that other person flips. In the case you're quoting, I have a null read on Hippos, but if you flip scum (which I doubt, because I have a townread on you) I'd be looking for additional relationships between him and you.

As to why I mention it, would you rather I don't mention where I think people should look for connections? I've been helped in scumhunting by dead townies who posted their associations (and other thoughts), and then when I'm rereading after more information comes out, I suddenly see an association they mentioned (or something else) and catch scum. So why wouldn't I want to do the same for others?

I'm not sure if I can say it's a good habit or not. :/

Alright, that makes a little more sense, considering we're on D1 (although two people are dead that isn't much) that there's no solid reads at the moment. I don't actually ever remember quoting Hippo, but thanks for the vote of confidence, nonetheless?

Hmm, I see. So it's more like a signal for other players who might think I were scum that then it would make sense to look at this person? I was more so seeing it as you just putting it out of there as some sort of mechanism for flip flopping.

VOTE: Captain Haddock

I'm leaving this here, on Captain Haddock

Only six posts and all of them suck

He's either scum or lyncher, I don't know which one

Let's lynch this kid and get the deed done.


Phil seems town, that's what I think

But I have an idea that might have a kink

Moneybags' role seems pretty bad

He could explode making me sad

If he can visit, even if it's "kill"

He should try targetting good old Phil

Unfortunately, this is not often true. What is your mafia experience, TSH?

I've played with you before on a number of occasions.

Phillammon wrote:Anyone targeting me loses their role and becomes a ditto too.

Does this make them a carbon-copy, i.e. the same alignment as you? As in, should we be looking at this as a reverse-cultist, even if you're town it would still work the same way? Because if so this game is nine kinds of broken.

Props for using Dark Phoenix. Anyway, I feel it's best that I don't answer.

@Moneybags: Is your comprised of anything other than your post restriction and that you explode at an undetermined time?

saulres wrote:Umm, no. I'm missing it. Spell it out for the dumb ones.

Captain pointed that BBmolla was rolefishing, and then Captain asked Candy Corn about her post restriction (role fishing).

Then you should know better than to assume town isn't selfish, tSH.

Phillamon's role makes me uncomfortable and I think he's scummy in his own right. LYNCH PLZ

Oh I see. I didn't think that was rolefishing because I don't equate post restrictions with roles. And especially in this game, an annoying post restriction != a bad role, but is probably laid on top of a bad role.

Why?

I don't know what to make of him yet. If it's a real claim it does seem townie. If it's a fakeclaim it's a good one to discourage investigations. Of course...

Playing the newbie card in a newbie game is one thing. Playing it defensively in a non-newbie game is also one thing. But playing it
in advance
over something no one called you out on? What's your thinking here?

I disagree that if the claim is real it's townie. It's very difficult to balance for town. It would absolutely cripple any scum faction that targetted him. It makes a lot more sense as a scum role.

I don't think it's really a perfect parallel either, but it's amusing at the very least.

He has to claim something - and he might not understand balance, and this IS the worst roles mafia. He can definitely appeal to benefit of the doubt, but I'm not buying it.

If I didn't find him scummy on his own, I might watch and see, but I think he's scummy, and I think his role is more likely scum, so I think we should lynch him.

It makes sense that as scum, he wouldn't have thought to ask what would happen if scum targeted him...

I'll have to ISO him and see if there's a strong enough case.
