For now, I will make an important announcement. We have a situational negative utility modifier. We are never ascetic or a miller or a gravedigger or anything else. Our modifier is not listed, so I presume we are a boonbank role.

Sorry this should be variant not boon bank.

You're just asetic? Nothing more / flavor? Anyways i'll leave now got work to do

thats all i want to claim now. at the very least i need to check with shelly.

do you know if your role is described on the booney toonz wiki?

Parallel universe is just flavor, basically my role PM tells me that i live in a parallel universe and that i can't be affected by non-killing actions there

wait is this legit? like one of those things where like gravediggers are supposed to claim first or something?

Yep, false guilties roles are supposed to be claimed around the first posts to prevent scum from getting away with claiming those when guiltied once we left the early game

HBB'a logic that scum tried to push a Sam CW doesn't square with a world where Ari is scum.

HBB has been pushing this Sam CW argument for a while... Didn't realize this until now. The CW argument also doesn't square with HUB as scum, which is something that HBB was pushing earlier. The whole of HBB's scumhunting lacks internal consistency (a massive scum-tell).

In post 1913, Shoshin wrote:BEF, I understand what you're saying about HUB but I don't think it's the same as what I'm saying about HBB. HBB is forcing the idea that scum tried to build a CW when there's no evidence of a coordinated effort to lynch Sam -- even Vax barely pushes or cases Sam. The idea that scum bussed Vax, on the other hand, just makes a lot of sense. It doesn't require a scum perspective because it's a natural towny thought to have.

In post 1948, Shoshin wrote:Let's say Shelly/Gypyx/Sam are town. We both want to include Golden as town.

I think Ydrasse/HBB are likely town.

I think Bell/BEF are probably town. This leaves who in the poe? Gamma, & Ari. It's a simple solve that makes a lot of sense when you think about it more.

If Sam's actually town enchantress, though, then scum must have a role that kills commuters. I guess I'll just claim to clarify why. I'm also a town parallel universe. This is part of why I suspected Gypyx earlier. Nico didn't commute last night but I will definitely be commuting the rest of this game.

That's three commuters, plus a role that allows for two more town commuters. That's five players that scum can't kill. Five. This doesn't seem plausible.

In post 2011, shellyc wrote:shoshin can you give me the gist of the ~case~ on gamma, not just how gamestate-wise gamma fits as scum here?

I don't know what you mean by "gamestate."

Let's start with who the town are. You're town. I'm town.

I also read Golden, HBB, Bell, Ydrasse, BEF, and HUB as town.

The poe leaves Gamma/Ari/Gypyx/Sam.

I'm happy to clarify why these players are town if you don't understand.

Gypyx/Sam are scummy behavior-wise, but I'm bracketing this today. If you assume they're town because of role, then you need to look at who's left. I'd rather leave them alive for now while we collect more information about the setup. If scum are able to kill commuters, that lends more credence to all of commuter claims being town. If scum can't kill commuters, then we need to look closer at these players. For today, I'm bracketing.

Gamma & Ari don't have anything towny about them. Ari isn't actively scummy, just unengaged. The interesting point, though, is that Gamma has come out defending Ari like he knows Ari's alignment. It's almost mason-tell level if you assume they're town. Gamma's reasoning doesn't square with the boldness & confidence of Gamma's read. This is the first thing that concerned me about Gamma.

If you assume Gamma's town, how do you explain his behavior? The early vote on Tsunami looks like an inspired read, but the rest of his play around Vax felt hollow. He's a townie who doesn't care too much about what happens, just letting others control the game. But then he suddenly thinks Ari is so town that now he cares a lot & begs people to trust his Ari read. This highlights for me the strength of Gamma's read on Ari. It's out of character for him, so if Gamma's town, it's worth sheeping this read. I strongly believe in sheeping my teammates when they're this confident about a read. If Gamma's town, you also have to believe that he misreads me as scum based in behaviors I do in every game. I'm not sure how to explain it. You also have to believe Gamma is okay with mislynching me without any caution despite his past experiences with mislynching me, which strains credulity. But let's say he doesn't have any regrets or human emotions when it comes to killing me, despite knowing I'm a town asset. Okay.

Compare this to a scum profile. Gamma votes Tsunami early on based on bullshit reasons to create some distancing. Scum don't expect this wagon to take off the way it did, or for Tsunami to implode the way they did. Lots of players would say Nora is strong scum who is unlikely to get lynched D1, for example. So Gamma tries some early distancing. When the Tsunami wagon takes off, he keeps his vote on his partner (doesn't want to look suspicious so he's hedging) but attacks YOU for voting Tsunami. Your reasoning was really good, but he gaslights and tries to pretend the only reasons are angleshoot. He can't take his vote off Vax anymore but he certainly doesn't drive the wagon. If there had been a viable CW, he'd jump on that. But none materializes. So the he kills Titus, who was suspecting Gamma most of D1 and was probably making life very exhausting and difficult for scum Gamma. Then D2. He's just blah blah blah, nothing happening, very underwhelming play, letting town kill themselves as scum like to do. He takes the opportunity to pocket townies where he can -- BEF for example. Then he gets the opportunity to build a wagon on biggest town threat (me) and immediately jumps on it. Can't leave me alive, I don't lose games when scum do that. His reasoning is clear bullshit to anyone who knows me, but nobody knows me well here except HUB, who joins me in Gamma. I dunno how to explain this better. Gamma immediately flipped his read on Sam after the claim, which doesn't feel natural to me. There wasn't any questioning or concern. Gamma isn't sorting me in good faith. Gamma's the most likely to kill Pelican. What more can I say?

Town Gamma profile doesn't square up. It doesn't fit, and if it does, we definitely shouldn't lynch Ari. Scum Gamma is consistent with Gamma pocketing Ari or defending a partner. Scum feel a lot more pressure to defend partners when they lose a teammate on D1. Scum Gamma feels this pressure, clearly. That's my take.
