Aristophanes - Boric Acid, Mafia Vanilla Cop - has been lynched!

Spoiler: Aristophanes' Role PM

Boric acid, also called hydrogen borate, boracic acid, orthoboric acid and acidum boricum, is a weak, monobasic Lewis acid of boron often used as an antiseptic, insecticide, flame retardant, neutron absorber, or precursor to other chemical compounds. It has the chemical formula H₃BO₃ (sometimes written B(OH)₃), and exists in the form of colorless crystals or a white powder that dissolves in water. When occurring as a mineral, it is called sassolite.

Compound:

Boric Acid

Flubbernugget - Sodium Hydride, Town Inventor - has been killed!

Spoiler: Flubbernugget's Role PM

Sodium hydride is the chemical compound with the empirical formula NaH. It is primarily used as a strong base in organic synthesis. NaH is representative of the saline hydrides, meaning it is a salt-like hydride, composed of Na⁺ and H⁻ ions, in contrast to the more molecular hydrides such as borane, methane, ammonia and water. It is an ionic material that is insoluble in organic solvents (although soluble in molten Na), consistent with the fact that H⁻ remains an unknown anion in solution. Because of the insolubility of NaH, all reactions involving NaH occur at the surface of the solid.

Compound:

Sodium Hydride

Alignment:

Town

Role:

Inventor

STRONG NON-NUCLEOPHILIC BASE

: Every day, you may give a one-shot weak cop ability to another player. You may not gift yourself.

Win Condition: You when when all mafia-aligned players are eliminated.

it is now day 4. deadline is in (expired on 2015-08-02 23:59:22).

Rereading now.

My reads have been garbage this game, I haven't had a single good town game since back from school hiatus. It's frustrating. Sorry all.

Jaqen, I'd like to know what 'tell' you saw that made you think I was the role that just died...

[Wickedestjr]

And wicked- you may as well come completely clean and let everyone know plainly you're the Cop Inventor. The crumbing is evident enough for some to pick up on and if one who doesn't is the commute inventor you're pretty screwed.

[Jaqen Hghar]

None. A man wanted to see how others would react.

[Cerberus v666]

I received the third invention last night and targeted Sonic Boom. Nothing interesting learned.

[Cerberus v666]

Also need to reread, meant to do it during the night and didn't. My first thought is that if there were any scum on the aristo wagon, they joined towards the end, and probably only after I made my unwillingness to change votes known. That's just off the cuff though.

@jaquen

Weak cop investigates the previous weak cop

If nobody dies, that weak cop claims

This continues every night

Now we have a trail of conftown

You're willing to call me dumb for sheeping lc's plan without challenging it I think

Honestly the paragraph I'm responding to makes no fucking sense but that's what I got out of it

Yeah. That's dumb.

1. Scum would know the target so they can kill it

2. Scum would know the target so they can redirect it

3. Scum would know the target so they can kill it

4. Scum would know the weak cop so they can kill it

A man can go on if you are liking

Town. Controls. The. Nightkill.

Stop. Being. Fucking. Dumb.

Actually keep being dumb it sucks having to read your posts anyway

A man is seeing this however and is thinking this one is way too invested in the investigations and is deferring that attention to one he is thinking to be VT if town.

[Wickedestjr]

None. A man wanted to see how others would react.

Couldn't these reactions have risked outing the real cop inventor?

This is neat. Why is one who is already investigating one to be town doing so again?

Everything is risk. A man is playing for the reward. And he is trusting that one wouldn't be naive enough to argue the theory a man is laying out.

[Sonic Boom]

Ok first things first, Ari flipped scum with a role. Most likely anyone with a role that's not inventor is scum and it's unlikely but not impossible for a scum to be an inventor.

Second, I see three major reasons to kill Flubber in light of Ari's flip. First, scum found out that Flubber was the cop inventor. Second, scum shot him because they couldn't lynch him. Third, to frame someone to lynch. Figuring out which one of these motives is best. That's a bit harder to do right now, but if we keep these in mind, we may be able to eliminate these.

Third, if scum flip with roles then not everyone in the chain is conftown, but merely probably town. If a godfather ever flips, the rest are confirmed town.


===========

Now time to at least do a preliminary skim of the VCAs. I don't think I'll get to OMG level confidence but it's time to take a look.

Umm NO, WE received the third invention.

Cerb is referring to the inventor that is not the cop+commuter as the third invention.

Flubber flipped town.

[Cerberus v666]

The third invention jaqen. The one SC had been receiving every night prior to this. And, I targeted SB because that slot is the pivotal one upon which the whole cop chain rests...or so I thought. In the event the weak cop was from scum, they could have given it to their own on the first night and planned redirection etc from there.

Just in case you're not clear, we're counterclaiming you.

~Titus

[Cerberus v666]

..I guess I should have mentioned what the third invention is. Do you want me to Titus or is it better it remains unknown?

[Sonic Boom]

..I guess I should have mentioned what the third invention is. Do you want me to Titus or is it better it remains unknown?

Claim it only if it explains why I'm counterclaiming you. If there are 4 inventions (which SC will clarify then), then we don't want to give scum additional information.

~Titus

[Cerberus v666]

I mean, the mere act of specifying what it is should make clear what should have been clear when you first read my claim.

[Sonic Boom]

Nah, let's go full monte here.
