That guy was a night 4 vigilante. Kind of a weird role for a mini normal It is heavily implied that there is another vigilante, because town killing into an even number of players in the day is bad (especially on night 4, where it brings the number from 5 people alive to 4 people alive, assuming no other kills or protects).

Thoughts:

1. Upon analysis, Gamma can talk more. Need to resolve this slot.

2. There is a lot of speculation about scum being on the NPOM wagon - which is fair, because more than half the game was on that wagon. Unless you think ALL the scum were on that wagon, however, we should probably be looking just as hard at the people who were off of it:
All seven voters from the NPOM wagon are alive today, only four of the people who were off of that wagon are alive today.


I like my odds better hunting in the group of four than the group of seven today. I do not believe it is likely that the entire scum team jumped on the Day 1 mislynch together.

That leaves at least one scum in here:

Gammagooey
VP Baltar
CantLynchAPuppy
iDanyboy

Out of that group, we can hunt for people who seemed to avoid the wagon in anticipation of a town flip. My best guesses there are Gamma and Puppy.

Gamma seemed to be reaching really hard to find a defense of NPOM where there wasn't one in their back and forth with me shortly before the lynch (not saying there was no good defense of NPOM, but the one Gamma chose fell apart upon inspection - even NPOM didn't go along with it). Gamma had very few posts during Day 1, and this awkward conversation made up about 30% of them.

Puppy swooped in to support a counterwagon with a pretty flimsy post shortly before the lynch as well.

Of those two, Gamma seems more likely to flip scum to me.

VOTE: Gammagooey

In post 922, Blair wrote:Gun to my head, if I had to solve right now it would be:

Gamma

Puppy
/Midway +
Mavs
/Atarashi/Quick

Bolds being my best guesses, sorted left to right by confidence both within each slot and overall.

The Mav read is my highest confidence for a third scum, but still isn't very high at all - and that's if there even are three scum.

The lurkers are basically just me accounting for the unknowable. We need more content from those slots to sort them.
I like most of this.

VOTE: Gammagooey
I voted Gamma before you made post 1000, which is where your supposed soft is, right?

Come on

For someone who usually lives up to his name, Quick is taking a longer than usual amount of time to respond to a direct question here.

Maybe I finally stumped him. :shifty:

Dunn, I will come back to that after Gamma's claim.

The reason why will become clear.

Assuming Gamma is scum I'd guess Votato for partner. They've tried to get 3 other wagons off the ground (r2r, midway, blair), and he also threw some shade at me pre-gamma vote just based off of my hammer. Post 1166 is scummy

There are really only two explanations:

1. Gamma is town; Blair is scum with Ready2Rock

2. Blair feels more confident in her Gamma read.

Occam's Razor might be prudent here.
R2R is a better push since it appears Gamma is the better player.
If you thought Blair was claiming cop, why were you making posts like this?

After we sort Gamma we get to debate whether Quick was lying as town or lying as scum. Yay. :|

Slight suspicion on Mavs if Gamma is scum - R2R looks like what scum really want to go through as a lynch

I'm a night 3 vig. Frankly I think you're lying about being a PR at all given that NPOM already flipped vig and anything that would have given you an effective guilty on me would have applied to him too (and as someone said earlier having only a night 4 vig as town killing power doesn't really make sense for setup balance) but I'll save my vote until after you claim what your result on me is.

there only being 1 night phase has nothing to do with it

I'm effectively VT except for night 3 and there's only one role I can think of that would give a 'guilty' on me and it would have already had one potential false guilty in the setup already that Blair would be aware of

I am a Traffic Analyst. I investigated Gamma Night 1 and discovered he can talk outside of the game thread.

I breadcrumbed my result in my very first post this phase:
In post 870, Blair wrote:1. Upon analysis, Gamma can talk more. Need to resolve this slot.
Gamma is claiming vigilante because it is a safe guess after NPOM's flip, and because I dropped a red herring for gunsmith here:
In post 922, Blair wrote:
Gun to my head
, if I had to solve right now it would be:

Gamma
+
Puppy
/Midway +
Mavs
/Atarashi/Quick
Gamma fell for my red herring. Lynch this.

You had a chance there to claim you were neighborized or something.

You didn't. Nobody let him get away with adding tacking something like that on later.

don't really want to argue forever about this but

blair, u've been scumreading me all day/game, mostly never explaining why but just pointing at different posts and saying "scum, see!" (maybe when i read ahead u'll have tried something differently?) it's not working for you, if you really want to convince people i'm scum u should actually make a case or something, though i'd rather u ust drop this whole line of thought because you're barking up the wrong tree (:P)

i do agree w/ u that lynching in the 4 slots off yesterday's wagon is better than lynching on the 7 who were on. not sure that u've picked right though

This would be a terrible, right-out-the-gate-since-my-first-post-of-the-phase gambit if I were lying. Trading 1:1 is a bad deal for scum.

So I'm sure Quick will show up soon and say that's what I'm doing.

Yeah because I wasn't neighborized? You're just lying about having a guilty on me to get a PR lynched, maybe you're a mafia gunsmith or something and thought that I was a n2 vig and was worried I'd shoot you tonight or maybe you just got rolecop info from a scumbuddy but it doesn't really matter

The sensible thing to do is just lynch me and lynch you tomorrow, I'm not going to self-vote or anything in case people believe me here and we can lynch scum instead but like I doubt even I'd be confident enough to lynch a PR claim with a result over the guilty if I were in everyone else's position.
