But here are my biggest concerns:

1. Our "Vigilante" seems to display traits indicative of not wanting to be leashed. We're not (yet) at the point where we need to provide names but if he DOESN'T shoot in the lynchpool and/or lurkers we're gonna have words and/or rope.
2. HitAlt, the guy whose play has been defined by his role, is MIA.
3. xyzzy is MIA only in this game while posting elsewhere on-site.
4. The near-guaranteed lynch of Elbirn went up in smoke due to the replace out. Not going to say he's scum and it was a tactical replace out but MAN it was so inconvenient.
All of those concerns are valid. I think with HitAlt the proof will be in the pudding to use a different turn of phrase that convey the message you've offered on myself / Aus / worst. If I'm wrong and Worst is a Vig then that's a big ding in HitAlt's credibility and failure to continue to produce anything helpful in the days ahead would be telling.

Also I disagree on my (since I feel Aus stands a good chance of being scum) potential guilty being less useful than HitAlt's .... with a scum blocking Role already gone the odds of a false negative I think are pretty remote.

I think the town needs to be firm in the stance that if he DOES go AWOL he will be punished. With the notable exception of AWOL-hitting-unexpected-mafia, we can't have a loose cannon running around especially since there are 3+ known people with night actions relying on their targets surviving the night.

Did I say you were less useful than HitAlt? >_> Because that's not true. lol
Thankfully you're not relying
solely
on HitAlt for intel.

Obviously, Almost50 replaces Elbirn, effective as of a few hours ago.

Thanks A50!

I wanted to challenge chickadee because she made no effort to think about

“Removing SK means less night kills, means more town elected lynched”

Instead, just creating a reason to get on a wagon to get herself in a safe place today:

“Voting profii because he is SK hunting, I can say that because it’s site meta I don’t need to think any further”



It’s massively massively bad


Anything else I’ll do on a computer later but that just super stood out for me so phone posted

profii do you see scum-chickadee basically guaranteeing herself as the lynch by crumbing and later claiming vengeful?? especially after scum lost one power role?

Posted: Tue Jul 17, 2018 6:16 pm

if yes: why?

if no: why the shade at chicka?

Posted: Tue Jul 17, 2018 6:32 pm

Why would she put herself forward to be lynched ? I haven’t thought that through

Where is the shade? To me here is what happened

I said, if we remove a SK, there are less night kills therefore more lynches
HWS said, that is a valid point
Chickadee said omg no that’s scum


I have seen on numerous occasions people say someone is scum because they are SK hunting. Imo that’s poop, we are prolonging the overalll town life- also imo, chickadee is using this site meta to create a reason to vote me. Usually scum have a hard time to get on wagons so it could be that, but I’ve not thought it through

I don’t know why people aren’t understanding that but less night kills is a possible pro town option. Anyone who denies that is up to something. There is a difference between not wanting to do it and outright denying it

I’ll put you calling it shade down to not fully understanding what I’m saying, but if you continue I’ll move you into “up to something”

By definition, doesn't your vote on me already mean you think I'm up to something? I don't like that you're trying to weakly pressure me into giving up this line of reasoning. It also doesn't feel right at all that you're scumreading someone without putting any thought whatsoever into their claim (which imo is pretty telling of her alignment).

I'm also somewhat clearing Chickadee soooooo.

I’m saying the vote is bad and illogical - have i said I’m scum reading Chickadee?
I don’t know what line of reasoning I’m asking you to give up - I’m asking people to acknowledge that if we remove a SK there are less kills and more lynches and that’s why I said TW is an option

However I also acknowledge that people might not want to do that- they might think that TW is legit a vig, they might think SK!TW might be leash-able

But to say SK hunting is guaranteed scum is ridiculous

Its never simple. Yes, SK hunting to the detriment of everything else is bad because scum want to focus down their competition.
That being said, the damage a SK can do TO THE TOWN is also incredible so town shouldn't be harassed for wanting to lynch the actual person who's the Vig/SK.

No one's really hunting for the SK. We know who has the potential for it.

Still waiting on HitAlt among others [xyzzy, A50].

@profii: You've called Chickadee's reasoning "manufactured" and implied she's up to something so yes it's safe to infer you're scumreading her. If you're not scumreading her then why are you trying to draw this much negative attention to her? Why are you only just now implying that you're not actually scumreading Chickadee after all of this? You're backpedaling.

Interestingly enough, this is the first post I need to catchup on..
I tried to reread D1 through MY OWN ISO, to see how I landed on certain suspicions, and how/why people reacted on my honeypot.
In light of everything that actually went down, MoI is considerably less
obvious
town, and Andrius could fit there too.
(Also funnily enough, I think both of them called my play D1 bad especially since I basically didn't towntell at all, yet now I see they failed to do it properly as well.)
So like, not calling the outright scum, but I can see where you're coming from. Everyone should be on the lookout for their posting later in the game if they don't get NK'd.

TW
is not groupscum.

dram's
wincon role PM implies a 3p faction.
I wouldn't put too much weight on what the Role-PM implies as mods often want to keep the wincondition vague on how many factions there are.
But since no-one else is claiming the Dramonic-kill, it logically follows that TW is either SK or from a "secondary Mafia".
(No, still not even considering him being a Vig. His answers to my "hunting" of him could've been easily formatted into hinting Vig without outright claiming it, and I would've dropped it then and there.)
In post 1677, Taly wrote:I have gameplay reason to believe TW is just a town vig, because why else would he shoot the person he wanted dead even after a claim? He was risking his neck for scrutiny if he was wrong and I don't think SK is that ballsy, usually.
It fits SK-wincon very well to kill a JK-claim?
Them being scum AS WELL is actually twice as good for an SK.

Why didn't anyone else point out that town!Vig TW risked shooting a claimed town-PR N1 instead of waiting for results/other investigatives D2? ANYONE?

I think this is also the reason why he tried his very hardest to avoid claiming the kill altogether.
In post 1687, the worst wrote:until HitAlt satisfactory explains what was going through his fucking head he's the d2 lynch

he knows I was behind the dram shot here. It was blatantly obvious and he's not stupid.
..which is why I offered you a way to hint it to me specifically.
I KNOW you KNOW that town!Duck could've thrown in a line of something like "A total shot in the dark: you already know what I did?" Boom. I back off immediately.
Also check how I started D2: I took my sweet time before engaging directly with you, as to blur the line of what I might know, and whether it was even you I had a result on.
I tried to give you the wiggle room you should've seized if you were a town!Vig.

And to anyone feeling like I was expecting "too much" from Duck - bullshit.
He is absolutely capable of doing what I expected of him here, and he chose not to.
In post 1691, Chickadee wrote:Honestly when I was catching up over the last 5 paged, this was my thought. 2 fruit vendors, one town, and one scum.



I really think MOI is town here, but I also think ausuka is town, so I’m torn. I’ll take my personal laptop with me to work today so I can spend some time with this game maybe. Depends on how busy I am.
Yea, I think two town!fruitters would be pointless.
In post 1700, Andrius wrote:Me and HitAlt should also coordinate night actions to make sure we don't double up becausewe have different roles and can't overlap.
We can discuss this before EoD.
I'm even willing to give a pool of people I might check.
I don't think scum will have another roleblocker, and it would be extremely unlikely for me to get another guilty in a row anyway..
In post 1706, brassherald wrote:He still thinks he was the night kill because he explicitly doesn't believe my claim.

I'm still pretty sure I was the NK.
You didn't obviously claim/crumb/hint a PR D1, and you weren't an obvious townie D1 either by any means.
I on the other hand believe to have called at least part of the scumteam correctly D1, likely have strong metareads on at least one or two of them to boot (you/TW/ausuka to name the D1 "suspects"), AND softed/claimed a PR all through D1.
I do not know how I thought I was more likely the target for their kill than you???
In post 1741, Skygazer wrote:sooooooo I'm townreading MoI/Andrius/Ausuka/Rask - how unlikely is it for there to be two loyal fruit vendors? Because I'd really like to keep four strong town reads
This here is scum with Andrius/MoI in the universe where the two are already scum together.
Otherwise this is just a bad townread-list.

In fact, I think SkyG is still just scum and that's why their list might be bad.
