Uh ... what? It's MyLo. It's conventional strategy to no lynch, let scum kill to reduce the lynch pool, and then lynch the next day. There's no discussion needed there. Ranger also said nothing that day, so even if you think there is discussion needed about MyLo strategy (???), both live players did the same thing.

Even if there was something worth commenting on, I wouldn't have done it at that time, because my grandpa's surgery was the day prior and I had very little access that day. I'm about to head to bed, by the way, but I'll stay on a bit if you want to finish this conversation. Or at least I'll try to - may fall asleep on accident.

I'm nodding off where I sit, so just as a heads up, I'm not staying up. I'll check this when I wake up if there's time.

Fine, but I am leaning towards Ranger, and lately my LYLO skills suck. So I want to talk to you more when you get back.

Leaning towards Ranger as what?

I'm back now, but I doubt you're around. I'm happy to have a conversation when you're back. I need to read through your ISO at some point, but that may have to wait a day.

Leaning towards Ranger as scum, but me tunneling has never been good.

Especially in the LYLO situation we are in.

Can I ask if your ability was a one day thing? The double voter thing.

Exactly.
absinthe was townreading me.
Not a good nightkill.
davesaz was townreading me.
Not a good nightkill.
Ricastle was townreading me.
Not a good nightkill.

Literally the only player nightkilled who wasn't townreading me is Soren, and that was mostly, "Well, between Rob and Ranger, Rob has the stronger argument".
Not a strong endorsement of me being scum.

Here's an idea.
Why don't we try a massclaim?
Jackal didn't flip a role that scum could fakeclaim.
So scum may not have a fakeclaim.
If you don't trust me enough for me to be last, then we can roll some dice or something.

I do have a slight inclination, but I want to wait for the massclaim before I reveal it.

Usually mods provide fake claims when a player asks for one, so that might not be true at all.

I'd also like to point out in my defense: I was one of the strongest advocates for Jackal being scum, and Jackal voted me quite opportunistically, so that is further evidence I'm town if it matters.

In particular, things in my defense: this page, you get to see me pushing Jackal almost before anyone else. (Ricastle and absinthe have me slightly beat.) / show more of it.

is Jackal putting me at L-1.
is me pointing out why this is a scum move. Continued in and . Also, and . (Mental note: while there are several key Rob13/Firebringer posts on many pages that make me lean towards one of you being scum increasingly strongly, this page contains one big HUGE tipoff. Another one happens on page ten. But...see below.) While starting the day on Jackal, I do get side-tracked, however, quite critically, when deadline was approaching, I made ...in which, I switched back onto Jackal. With davesaz voting and Rob
almost
voting, we
almost
got a scum lynch and you cannot deny that I was the one who most strongly pushed that.

Of course, that's just defense from reading the thread. My readthrough has a dual-purpose: I'm becoming increasingly convinced of who is scum, but I want Rob to check in to be absolutely sure.

Okay, that seems to be like fence sitting though.

What are you expecting Rob to claim exactly?

That was before I laid out my defense.

I have done so now.

If both you and Rob still say I am the most suspicious, then I will lay out my cards. Claiming won't really be necessary, but I'll do it anyway.
However, if this is not the case...then I have no reason to claim first.

I rarely proofread what I say, but have no need to. The poker metaphor is apt for the situation: I hold a good hand. I want to hear from Rob before putting all my chips on the table. I could go all-in now; I'm reasonably confident I'd be making the right choice. But I want to be absolutely sure. Lylo is absolutely the time to be cautious with voting, because one wrong vote, and it's over; scum win.

Fire: When you have an even number of players, the number of players/2 is enough to no lynch (since if you have 4 players and 2 aren't voting, it's impossible to lynch). I assume that's where you got the "double voter" thing. I am not a double voter. It is no aspect of my role.

I'm a Town Nexus.

This setup is exactly as I laid out in , I expect, given all these enablers. None of the roles interact; it's functionally 7 vt/2 goon. I've run a similarly misleading setup before.

Ranger, claim.

Also, all three of us are here right now. Can we have a conversation (long if needed) and get this over with today? I don't know when I'll be able to be on at a time anyone else is on for the rest of the day phase given my current time commitments related to the V/LA I mentioned earlier.

Looking at Fire's ISO now, by the way. Hopefully I'll come up with something that is stronger than gut to indicate town (or scum).
