I was gonna comment on how useless that question is but A50’s answer showed me how it is useful

Quick post checking in. My internet is out until at least Wednesday. I’ll be keeping up, but posting little.

Weird...

So someone else saved Toog, Scum no killed, or the kills are strongwilled and targeted CT and EJ.

Huh?

You all do realize this isn't a "Normal", so I would strongly recommend you ask me how >I< would resolve any hypothetical situation.

Thank you

That would by definition be a self mass redirector. But you do you.

This is weird.

And problematic.

Few possiblities:

1) Scum have a kill that could not be redirected, used it on cheeky, and elsa saved them.
2) Elsa is not ascetic.
3) There is another non-ascetic doctor out there, one that also prevented multiple kills.
4) There are multiple protective actions that occurred, enough to equal the number of kills submitted.

I think there might be a couple others, but they're all variations on these.

Gamma he is referring to Almost's recent post on the matter.

He's right in which I couldn't have healed him in any circumstance then.

Mhm. What Jingle said.

I see then
Didn’t realize EJ was Ascetic on top of the other things

If Toog scum, scum could have no killed.

I kind of doubt EJ isn't ascetic, because SHE is the one that brought up the Ascetic/LR interaction in the first place.

I'm alot of things as a Neutral. Appearantly its to give me a fighing chance to survive.

You can reread my ISO and see I didnt just pull the ascetic claim out my ass either.

Still don't really want to lynch Toog today because why would scum lightning rod activate D1?

Goddammit, now I wish I had died so I could see the setup. This is interesting as hell.

Compulsive is a thing. But that's a great question.

Toog, are you X-shot LR or was this a n1 thing only?

I recommend not answering this.

-Cerb

No, think about it.

Now nobody here has any clue what the hell happened last night and he made any investigative useless, unless they ALSO have ascetic. Which is possible, true, but unlikely.

So now we're basically still in day 1 minus the traitor in terms of information.

Which... Is good?

Like, if Toog is an unlimited Lightning rod then scum effectively have no kill. If he's got some manner of limitations, having scum not know them to not be able to play around them is positive EV. If he's one shot then he shouldn't claim because scum has to worry about him doing it again.

All of this doesn't matter if he's town or scum, because presumably there's a scumteam without him on it.

Ya know... as a Survivor, I would totally claim to be Ascetic and Bulletproof just to try and keep as few people targeting me at night as possible. Sometimes you just need to keep up appearances.

That said, there can legit be more than one protection out there, and if EJ's Doc protects against all killing, it would be hard to imagine that another protective role would not. The only thing I can think of that would make it sticky would be an Elite Bodyguard that kills the attacker to his protection.

It's laughable that people would even think that a scum Lightning Rod exists let alone would claim it after Night 1. Just think about it for a moment and you'll understand just how ludicrous that would even be.

I concede that I REALLY don't want to get into another argument yet, so I'm changing the subject since it seens easy to do as me, especially whenever I bring myself up.

Anybody who even town reads this, raise your hand. Then:

1: Put your hand down you are wrong.

2: If we lost nothing last night, then let's start where we left off yesterday. This probably would have been shot by the vigi if things went normally anyway.

Using the rod last night after a Mafia aligned lynch saves us at the very least one town death. I was fully expecting to die since I was hoping a Strong Man would have attacked last night.

NR is null rn
Nico has a bad habit of arguing why meta would prove her as town when she is scum, so without enough content there I don’t have any capability to read her
Could look at that RR vote though

So putting aside Toog, Flicker, EJ for today.

Porkens being treated as a town wagon is a viable point. I'm fine with the provisional assumption that Flicker was a town wagon. That's a good starting point for wagon analysis, if someone who isn't being lazy wants to get on that.

I'm just going to outright claim: The mod is taunting me and refusing to give me all of the setup information by PM. Therefore, the mod is a meanyhead. That is all.

The Mod loves me a bunch, considering I'm basically a free 3rd party view of the game, lol.

He also finds me hilarious and may secretly be rooting for my victory. Don't tell him I said thst though.

No they all TMI'd if you read the TPFKAP flip and each players ISO. Jingle was different in that his TMI was about HoB. The other 3 talked about how someone was town because they revealed stuff about their role PM early...therefore they were aware ONLY TOWN ROLES DIDN'T KNOW WHO THEY WERE. Whereas we didn't know if scum had flavour or not.
