If SSK flips town can we lynch mastin tomorrow for knowing he was town?

If he's right then you should lynch us first because we "knew" that kagami was town.

I feel like nacho and I are having one of those games where our reads mesh really well and we're right about nearly everything. Which could be false. It's much less likely for us to have that kind of game in a player list this size.

But, so far we've been right well in advance of the flip about every alignment that's known. Maybe it's easy reads first in this game.

Why would flavor claim matter?

Why is a maf Tracker so absurd?

Why is SSK still alive?

A thought occurred to me that perhaps one or both of the scum/SK actually legitimately believe SSK to be scum of the other kind, depending on how the night actions actually went N1.

Butyeah. SSK is flipping town. Guarantee it.

You don't think there's any difference? I don't recall you being literally 100% certain about anything.

Also, mastin is scum anyway, I'm just throwing another on the pile possibly. Whereas you are probably town.

SSK could still be Scum, but not for the reasons that I originally suspected. I want to sort something with Metal Sonic first:
In post 2058, Metal Sonic wrote:Question: is it common for a town neighbor to also have an additional night action? I usually think that town neighbors are just vanilla with qt. this question is important
Why was this question so important to you? Did you receive the answer that you were looking for?

In post 2306, Venmar wrote:I don't think Pieguy blocked two kills in a row. At the very least wait for Night 3 to confirm it before you heave this speculation around >.>
Where did his one-shot Bulletproof go then?

I still don't trust Mastin, but I think there's a good chance that she's right about the Mafia team shooting Pieguy outright on Night 1. (Look back through our conversation from today to see how I reached this conclusion.)

I don't assign percentages to reads. Mafia usually doesn't come down to math.

Well gosh Im sure glad you stripped out what your read was on Brian into just the "He self-voted -> town" part of it cause that makes TONS of sense.

I'd have to reread Brian, I think I missed most of the part of the game where he was actually posting. Gooner is definitely not living up to what I know hes capable of though.

gooner is a cool guy. I want to be his bff, but hes breaking my heart in this game.
If you want a detailed town-case on Gooner, it will have to wait until I have a chunk of uninterrupted time.

HeyCabd,

I asked you a related question earlier, but I'd like to know why you think the really strong (and totally incorrect) conviction Kagami has that her character claim should all but clear her is not a town tell.

Why do you think Flandre would pull a massive fencesit on two townies to draw suspicion away from real scum in the neighborhood?

Yes Kagami is simply dripping with town motivated play, Nacho.

I get why you think its town, but. its. not. town. :P

Look at the
motivation
. There is no scumhunting, there is no effort to solve the game, there is no.
Passion
. The defense reads a little town, I'll give you that, but look at the big picture. What is Kagami doing that looks town other than that? The soft defense of Flandre, lumped in with other lurkers was scum plain and simple. Town doesn't lump all the lurkers together and call them policy lynches in a negative way. That is what
I
would do if I were protecting a buddy subtly :P . It is manipulative scumplay and hraahhhh you have been manipulated. I'm here for you though Nacho to guide you to the light :P . Kagami's focus on her ROLE and nothing else is from scum. It shows that where her attention is, is, well, forced. If it fit into the bigger picture of trying to find scum it would make sense, but. it. does. not. This is a desperation attempt to look town and it is not working. the vote on us is posturing, the wagon analysis was superficial. You are being manipulated by scum.

p-edit: Skull could be scum. I thought the "Devils Advocate, but why would Flandre bus Kagami" comment was scummy.
Your comments about her not scumhunting do hit home, but she's been under extreme pressure from the get-go of day 2.

Zeal about her character claim 'proving' that she is town is not a towntell. To the contrary,
trying to prove herself as town is absurdly scummy
.
not really
she's not actually making a case for her being town she's just like "I'm town as fuck because KOSMOS" which is pretty town

When did he make these crumbs -- Night 1 or Night 2 (or both)? You make it sound like he crumbed something before Kagami was lynched, but you didn't post 2058 until Day 3, which leads me to believe that he continued crumbing on Night 2 after Kagami had been mislynched. Is that correct?

Who are the "many others" that were supposedly fooled by AFB? I certainly didn't detect any role-related knowledge or information in his case against Kagami, and only two people (you and Venmar) saw his crumbs in the neighborhood. Two people isn't what I would consider "many others."

What does Kagami's mislynch tell you about AFB? Do you think his neighborhood crumbs are alignment-indicative?

You sound certain that AFB's crumbs were fake. Why is that?
