1) We already had a day vigilante fire (which we'll assume is scum because again, that wasn't really a town shot) 2) Radiant makes zero sense as a vigilante shot, and everyone here should know that. Given Fate's reputation on this site, they make very little sense as a vigilante shot as well, especially among the older players in this list. 3) Just by the sheer number of players in this game, it's pretty likely that the game is multiball and/or there is a SK (though I kinda consider both to be around the same thing.) 4) I'm not really familiar with Transformers, but I'm pretty sure from a flavor standpoint that it's likely this game's multiball or has a Serial Killer.
Thus, it's not an unreasonable assumption to make.

HI

TODAY, WE'RE GOING TO PLAY A GAME.
THE GAME IS
"WHY IS VOTING NEITHER ANTI-TOWN?"
WELL IT'S SIMPLE.
DO YOU THINK, IN THIS GAMESTATE, SCUM DUELED THEIR OWN TEAM?
NO.
SO WHAT YOU ARE SAYING IF YOU VOTE NIETHER IS "AFTER I SAW 2 KILLS N1 AND ONE KILL DAY 1, AND WE HAVE 5 DEAD TOWNIES, I'M OK WITH ONE TOWNIE DYING"
INSTEAD OF
I DON'T KNOW
READING EITHER ONE.
AND IF THEY'RE BOTH TOWN, PICK SOMEONE BASED ON FUCKING USEFULNESS.
KILLING THEM BOTH IS BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD.
ALSO, 2 KILLS LAST NIGHT, SO LET'S EVEN ASSUME BEST CASE SCENARIO.
SCUM/SERIAL KILLER DUELED OTHER POTENTIAL SCUM TEAM/SERIAL KILLER.
ODDS OF THAT VERY LOW SINCE SCUM PROBABLY WON'T BE CASUALLY DUELING, AND IF THEY ARE AS A GAMBIT IT WON'T BE ON SCUM MOST OF THE TIME.
SO ENOUHG LAZY VOTING PICK ONE.
You have to consider the converse as well--the probability of lynching scum. This post only really addresses the probability of lynching town, which tbf, is higher when we pick neither versus when we go with one and lynch them.
The only thing that I think may be clearly better about choosing someone over neither (besides the accountability issue which I already kinda addressed) is that scum should be more inclined to shoot the winner of the duel since I'm willing to think that a good number of abilities require Energon to use (and there are also the hidden scrap abilities as well!) That's good in a way because 1) if we have two anti-town killers, they may end up shooting the same target (which should be a good thing) and 2) it helps protects other valuable town players

ok talk to me about my initial reads, are any of those glaringly incorrect or do you strongly disagree?
Elaborate on how you misread your role pm.

I'm saying I'm not giving you a pass simply because I agree with you and that if you are town, you need to do a better job of showing it.

and yes if they're both shitful to read and I'm not feeling one strongly over the other id rather swap one bad town for one scum than lynch one bad town and let the scumfuck live on
but from a 2 dimensional POV I totally get her stance
pedit: yeah agreed I'm working on it
I read my pm while half asleep noted powers etc. and decepticon. Didn't really parse that the actual wincon was written like a faction-neutral town wincon. I thought I was a bad guy who didn't know the names of my team mates

You have to consider the converse as well--the probability of killing scum--with the duel mechanic. This post only really addresses the probability of killing town, which tbf, is higher when we pick neither versus when we go with one and lynch them.

is this a scumclaim? i was already starting to think you might be scum, so official
FoS
on the worst.
@ft, you have some interesting points, however i felt you went to an exhausting level of detail for your calculations as if you’d bet everything in this game that this game is multiball —> which again concerns me. it’s totally possible we have a multiball setup, it’s just i have not reached that conclusion myself.
is there a possibility that one single scum team killed dgb day 1 and killed rc night 1, but someone who is relatively inexperienced with fate vigged him n1?

update: stungun0404 maybe too low brow to be scum?
what it means is I was active lurking d1 to try and wrap my head around how to approach this as scum. after going back and rereading the more important parts of my wincon I now realize I need to solve this shit!
how do you figure that's a scumclaim?0

well, i have an idea of your gameplay, having overseen a scum game of yours and played in a marathon game where you were scum, and i think this is something you’d pull as it seems within your scumrange to make a statement like that. you have a tendency to make statements as scum from my memory that intend to pull the wool over everyone’s eyes precisely like the one you made there, so i can only assume you might be scum

I definitely like to think I'd do something like this as scum but like
also I don't think I'm creative or smooth (i.e. can fake my own awkwardness) enough to execute
911 onwards as actual scum fakeclaiming
