So I had a case of TMI, and I revealed it again to benefit the Scum how? The point I’m trying to make is that I wouldn’t put something out there that would directly harm the case my Partner was going to make to try and win the game in ELo. Because, well, it’s kind of stupid. It’s one thing if I put that out there once and never returned to it. But I returned to it repeatedly, quickly argued against any sort of setup claim that would clear VPB, and insisted that having a PT Cop didn’t mean the PT Cop was Town.

You will also note that I’m not the only player to have delved into the roles in the game. Koba did too. I quoted it as well. Are you going to argue that Koba had too much information as well?

I don't think what you said hurt VPB as much as you're suggesting. The thing that really sunk VPB was NPOM's death.

What Koba posts are you suggesting are similar to your own?
Don’t. The game is very much within reach. I was feeling pessimistic yesterday. I am much more optimistic today.

Also look at my iso. I was saying NPOM was scum for basically the entire game

The way that NPOM has been twisting facts, and trying to get a silly clear by making the point about the Day Talk, I think I’m wrong, and need to switch.
VOTE: NPOM
@Alduskkel if you’re Town, and you could very well be Town and I was wrong about you, then work with me here. It could be that Billy had a better sense of Scum than Bob since they started the game from the beginning.
In case you don’t believe me that I’ve been voting NPOM since way before Alduskkel ever did.
In post 2648, DkKoba wrote:i still dont understand why town would get 2 investigatives AND 3 towns confirmed to themselves AND a way for one of the investigatives to hide their claim behind a person who is not the PR themselves.
a PR that is part of a 3 man masonry??? thats just fucking strong!
THIS is why I had the reaction I had to the Claims. Not some dumb perspective slip. I have my doubts about DkKoba as I’ve already explained, but the points about game balance are absolutely correct. It seems ridiculous to me that Town would have a 3-Person Masonry with a Tracker, and a separate PT Cop who could then point out Scum or independently confirm members of a Masonry if they happened to stumble upon them. That’s 4 players that cannot be executed if their Claims ended up all panning out, which here they have. Now, the PT Cop is obviously an actual Role in the game. Now, VPB could theoretically still be Scum. They were forced to claim by a well placed Tracker, and it *could* be the case that VPB isn’t actually the PT Cop but was told the result of a check by the actual Scum PT Cop to help cover his ass (since they were found by the Tracker), which has now been flipped. The only way to sort this is by correctly TK’ing Scum here.
And this is the post I was talking about (with my commentary).
Dude, wtf. You weren't voting for Dats. You voted for hellbooks. Wtf do you even mean?
I've found by stopping trying to make logical sense of anything he says and only focus on PoE with NPOM, my quality of life has significantly improved.
Yeah, the more I try to figure out how NPOM's play makes any sense as any alignment the more I confuse myself.
But, if you look at NPOM's wagon history + the PoE + maybe NPOM is shading Dats/VPB because he doesn't want either of them confirmed, then I think "NPOM scum, Bob town" makes sense.
VOTE: NoPowerOverMe
Actually I’ll correct myself. Aldus did vote NPOM here.
That’s not the point. The point is that Koba was also doubting the alignment of the PT Cop because believes that in such a case, the game is very Town-sided. Ask them, they’re still around.

And my point WAS that you were TMIing and then you tried to defend it by saying I'd have to argue Koba was TMIing as well.

Anyway, I don’t think you’ll find any case in favor of either me or Aldus convincing purely from where we voted for NPOM. Let’s admit it - NPOM was the Scummiest player in the game. But Aldus’ vote and push for Testa for example, or hammer on Janko, should make you a little more cautious. And yeah I screwed up on Bob for sure. But then why did the players you now know are Scum built the same wagon that they built on Testa on me?

I wasn’t TMI’ing, first of all. I had some speculation regarding the setup because I had the same questions regarding game balance. And you still haven’t answered the question - why exactly did I stand to gain as Scum by raising these questions?

Andres is probably my least certain in that group. But as I said before, there's obv been scum theater somewhere this game because nothing fits perfectly

last thought: aldus scum means that scum went largely bus-free in D3 which i would consider to be somewhat unusual but makes perfect sense when they hold a powerful but unstable position such as the one they were in
