I still don't understand why you didn't kill me last night.

But it DOES matter. I'm the same fucking role that was in the last two iterations of this game. Aetis is always the town investigative role. This is NOT ambiguous at all and calling it weak is just you being ignorant, straight up.

Did town try to break the second game with flavor?

So you went for a suboptimal town play cause you wanted baitslot dead?

Yeah, and then DGB and I did everything we could to induce paranoia about their conclusions. Elyse (Lizen) ended up getting lynched in 3p.

So you think because town tried to break the game in the second incarnation, the mod wouldn't be privy to breaking strategies regarding the two characters that have been consistently town? :neutral:

It wasn't suboptimal. Fitz was scumread by a number of players, and would have been an easy mislynch late-game if kept alive.

Are you town? Then stop bitching about how I didn't kill you.

For example, Desp, I don't think my character has been in the last two versions. In this game, I am specifically looking for you. So why doesn't anything activate upon finding you? Why is it nothing but flavor, given the massive amount of crazy mechanics and setup nuances in the last two games?

It would make more sense to me for Lizen to not actually be in the game, and that would subsequently also answer the breaking strategy of "these two flavors are always town".

And if it is indeed the case that Lizen is not in the game, it would also make sense for scum to push the massclaim agenda to not only clear themselves, but also find all the power-roles in the game.

That doesn't matter. If you take Pie's claim to be true, then killing anyone on the neil wagon does the following:
1. Removes someone who you think would be useless at this stage in the game (me).
2. Ends with 2 scum in a 3 person pool at worst. Even at mylo, this is favorable. This gives 2/3 odds to lynch scum, then you shoot the last person and bam 2 dead scum and likely you would die too since you would have to claim the vig shot if town was hit. Still 2 for 1 trade is quite good.

Am I missing something here?

Lizen and Aetis didn't share a QT last game, it was the Wingates who were trying to break it.

We're town. Can we lynch notscience now?

Except I was only calling for a mass claim after pieguy claimed, which I couldn't possibly have planned for. The only way this makes sense is if Brian and I are scum together and we planned on claiming pseudo-masons from the beginning, which begs the question--why wouldn't we just claim masons?

Because we're not scum.

Pie's claim? What are we taking to be true?

Also all-town wagons on D1 can happen. And especially when
WE NEVER EVEN FUCKING LEFT RVS.


You're trying to apply an objective position to a subjective situation and then asking why it's not lining up. Stop.

It might just be his playstyle, but I almost always townread NS. Also I don't think I've seen scum NS.

Because it looks a whole lot like you aren't aware that Pie claimed sensor and that two scum were on the Neil wagon.

But that can't possibly be it, so help me out.

You could have confirmed it yourself by killing pie N2. A town flip would imply that we have no reason to doubt the claim and it would have put us at mylo with 50% to lynch scum. However, if you had claimed the vig shot at pie, then you pretty much conftown yourself since scum would be insane to put themselves in a position where most of the would die. So we would actually have 2/3 odds of lynching scum.
