There's a number of reasons emps could post this. But my leading theory is that he knows I'm a big threat for scum!him this game. We have quite the history together, so I would expect him to know I'm town by now; especially given that Obum case I just posted which quite frankly makes me Obwn.
So for him to vote me regardless here? Busted, emps.

I thought it sounded serious, and if there was some baggage between you two I think it'd be good to clear the air rather than dance around it.
Obum sounds very defensive here. I could see this being scum being caught out very early. Notice the spacing in his two sentences? If he was enraged and distraught as his exclamation mark suggests, he shouldn't have the damn time to separate his sentences like that. And the second sentence sounds a lot more composed than the first. Robot who can turn his emotions on and off on the flick of a switch? Or SCUM?
Scum is my conclusion - if that wasn't clear.
No, I think that they're really an intelligent AI system that perfectly replicated how scum acts, but is actually a Quack Doctor. No wonder they seem crazy.

straight to the safe topic of setup spec?
Not looking good for you, Obum my friend. Except I don't dabble in friendship with SCUM.

Huh, I hadn't actually considered that. Townie points to Jake for seeing that; I think it's a lot harder for scum to come to this conclusion given you need to be DEEP inside a townie mindset to see this.

No, you just need to be a Quack Doctor who is also a Cannibal who just so happen to come across a townie.
...not that i happen to do that.
In any case, I want to know how we could try and solve what doctors we might be.
I meant to read old runs of this setup and only got through one of them, but what are you all's thoughts on claiming targets in advance
Did you make that decision before or after receiving your role PM?
Guilty gives me a soothing feel, he's smiling and always has his hand in your pocket, letting you know he's there. It's quite comforting.
What troubles me is him asking for our opinion on claiming targets in advance, rather than giving his own. Given you read HALF a game through, I'd have thought you'd have some opinions of your own, right? I do love your fur though, so I hope we can still be acquainted.
Odd. I have some good cases out there; nothing to say about them,
George?
If that really is your name.
All of George's posts this game have been entirely focused on myself. It's scummy, and a little obsessive if I'm being honest.

Claiming targets before end of night seems good. We should probably divide them among towniest players as to not give scum any guaranteed shots at towners.
Did your profile pic use to be red? I recall it being a lot more menacing before.

Wow, Emps trying to drag me down with him when he inevitably flips scum. Dirty tactics. Check the PT if you have one, which I don't.
Looking over the setup again, we actually want to spread the checks out on suspects, 3 of them are good for targeting scum with (2 vig shots and a jailkeep).

depends on if that person is town or scum
if town then only the nightkill target of scum dies and we get an IC in the collective target, and then we have to figure out if a second death is a scum kill or the weak doctor
if scum, then weak doctor dies, and then if second death occurs then the target is confscum, which means scum are likely to no kill to make it unclear and prevent the IC
it does keep the number of deaths to a minimum though so there's some merit in the idea
