No wonder I was so confused. My conclusion was correct, that DGB was a very confused Townie (in this case, Firefighter). However, claiming now is very anti-Town. Also, such obvious softs are comparable to my softing that Thatguy was a Cop.
However, I do agree that Mhsmith's reaction to this seems very scummy. It seems as though Mhsmith saw the softing and was trying to rolefish the claim.

Anyway, I will not counterclaim.

???
"Idk, she may by lying" = role fishing??? How? Like, I could MAYBE see an argument for wolf!me trying to out my read before i get lynched in case I miss twilight (although it would be pretty dumb for town to lynch without a claim), but you think I was actively trying to get her to hard claim? What exactly in my posts makes you think this?

@btd: yes or no: did you realize dgb was softing the doc claim before I repsmded to Panther? Alpaca is a no, where were you on this?

Actually I'd like everyone to weigh in on that. Who realized dgb was softing a pr there? Now that she's hard claimed, no point in not being open about it.

I did not realise that it was a soft at the time. All I read from it was that DGB was very confused.
What I now think, though, is that scum would naturally be paying more attention to figuring out the PR and thus pick up on softing more than VTs.

So we have alpaca and btd on record as having not seen it. Who else wants to weigh in?

Well, there goes any last paranoia I had on DGB.

Smith, how did your actions equal false cover? Occam's razor says rolefish.

"I'm laying PR cover" referred to how DGB could have handled her approach to Panther's questioning and my comment. 1399 was addressed to her.

Also, did you think she was softing doc at the time, before I made my comment?

Yes. My point is why should that be believed? We know PR cover is a thing. Doesn't mean you were doing it.

Just in case my last post was not clear, I did not see any crumb.

My point is that there was nothing in what I was saying that precluded DGB from either hinting that she was just laying cover, or giving a non-answer, or simply ignoring the issue. Non-explicitly pointing out what was (IMO) an already flagrantly obvious doc soft is not role fishing.

PS Alpaca, BTD and Titus are all on record as not CC'ing and not realizing that DGB was softing a doc role. I want to get Panther, Ranger and Xykfyu on record on this as well.

PPS Anyone L-1'ing before everyone has confirmed a non CC is so anti-town as to basically be scum-claiming. Don't even think about it.

Interestingly, Ranger is on-site but not responding to the request for claiming whether she understood the soft.

Yeah, probably not me you want support from on this, but all the same...here I am supporting this. I have nothing against playing in 20 games if you're actually playing them. And I have nothing against minimalists when playing. I fit in both categories. Giving as little effort as needed is acceptable and it can even be argued ideal.

...But you have to actually be , you have to actually giving effort, you have to actually something that is meaningful. My lack of ability for this is why I'm not signing up for new games at the moment (I think I'm recovering, though I'm not ready to play again yet in my opinion), so I know better than to try. But DrippingGoofball is playing how I would play as scum.

The problem is that I'm seeing suspicious behavior from everyone except PantherPunt, just different types.

DGB has this derp attitude which doesn't look natural.
Titus is giving all the many red flags.
I've stated my mhsmith suspicion.
{Alpaca, Xkfyu} extend from this slightly in their treatment of mhsmith, but also, Xkfyu is playing like a more reserved scum player, one that is trying to push for a mislynch while avoiding lynching a scumbuddy and still buddying town. (Hard to describe.)
BTD6_maker is a hard read. I don't see a lot of good from him. I don't remember anything particularly egregious from him either, though, so he has that in his favor.

I do still stand by DrippingGoofball being more likely town than not though for what it's worth. Gut from her posting on 55.

Titus wrote:Why does vote parking obvious scum convince you they are town?

That's not the reason why, and you assuming it is makes me even more uneasy, because I feel a town-you would have a better understanding of my suspicion.

Where I'm now at is that I think one of {Titus, mhsmith} is scum, but the other isn't.
I think that PantherPunt is town. If Titus is scum, DrippingGoofball is definitely town. If mhsmith is scum, this is less certain, but I still lean town.
So, that leaves {Alpaca, Xkfyu, BTD6_maker} for second-scum, and I need to find which teams are possible and which...aren't.

So, right now, doing the math: if we lynch, we go to 7 alive.
Worst case, if scum have doused 2 already, we get 5 tomorrow if they ignite, or 7 tomorrow with 3 successfully doused most likely.
If we lynch again, to 6, and they ignite, down to 3.

So, worst case scenario, I think we have two mislynches as of this moment. (Best case is obviously more than two.)

Meaning, I really think {mhsmith, Titus} should be solved today, and that means I really think we should lynch one. (Namely, mhsmith who has the votes.) If they flip town, lynch the other. But I want to hear from PantherPunt first on this.

I did not pick up that DG was softing

who gets a PR in an open and doesn't check the setup. I looked through DG games where she replaced into Opens and she has a record of not reading the setup. never did it occur to me that the "nevermind" on the smith town read was due to her figuring out the dousing thing and that she thought she was a doc who made a save

and I want to lynch Titus the most bc meta on smith but if I can't get the votes I can't get the votes. order of preference is probably Titus, Alpaca, BTD, smith

so 50/50 in there. the only world I've ruled out as w/w is Titus/Smith so it probably makes sense to check if I can rule Alpaca/BTD out as w/w

so that's on my to do list when I can give this game time. have a big interview today and need to prep for it

VOTE: Smith
This is L-1

@ranger/panther: talk about your Titus read a bit more? Ive seen wolf!titus twice now (mini 1775 as a MYLO sub and mini 1782 as d1 sub, for RC amusingly enough).

In 1775 she made an obviously BS case on dier (which should have gotten her lynched, in addition to the existing case on her slot, if dier and toast hadn't both decided that giving a crap about the game was boring), and in 1782 she was WAY too early and easy on the d3 bussing wagon after roshar blocked huntress's nk. So meta wise I'm not sure I see a great parallel. So what specifically makes you think she's wolf here? If we're going to play "Titus and smith are v/w, hang one if the other flips green" I'd like to see the case on her in clearer definition, since I'd guess mislynches today and tomorrow = loss.

Also...

So you immediately went to 'he must have jokingly coincidentally named the 1 pr in the game despite portraying cluelessness as to the open setup'

PP, that's dumb

I joked "doctor" because that's the one role that if claimed, no one would lynch barring a counterclaim.

That ANYONE in this game, much less just about everyone, could claim to have not seen the doc soft from dgb is ludicrous. She was practically shouting it.

She was practically shouting it . With the hindsight that DGB is Firefighter, it is easy to see examples of this. Without such hindsight, it is much harder. Alpaca missed it. I missed it. Titus missed it. PantherPunt missed it. For example, I just read DGB as confused. To say that it was obvious after knowing it was true is confbias. It is not ludicrous if it happened to the majority of us.

Here's the simple version.

You townread smith.
You learned what the setup is and then that negated your townread on smith.
Why?

The question answers itself.

1) dgb was protective, protected me last night, based her read on the resulting no kill, then backed off upon bothering to read the setup
2) dgb was pretending to be the protective (either for PR cover as town or for various potential reasons as wolf).

No other answer here is reasonable. Paying attention and exhibiting critical thinking makes it obvious, even without the other hints. No hindsight is needed. Part of my frustration with this town is the strange lack of these things, and I suppose this incident is just another example if it.

My way is the only town way of thinking is just all around bad play.
