either people with unrealistic activity standards or just not reading what I have posted and cruising on an outdated "BM is absent" read.

If I ain't dead, I'll be back tonight.

I don't think any of this btw, that's not why I'm voting you. I honestly just think people should leave each other alone to post whenever they like, and if there's a problem the moderator can deal with it. I said in one of the bigger games, it was actually hard to get a word in edgeways in between the relentless stream of posts complaining about people not providing enough content.

Um, ok...not really a necessary comment. Who do you think is scum now?

I don't really see E-1 votes as something that has to have an awesome reason, but I do think you should announce when you put someone there.

Did you read your role PM? I don't know what type of move this is.

Personally I'd consider BM to have not cc'd by now. If he knows he's at E-2 he's had to have seen the claim or people talking about it. Not sure why he's still voting you though.

I'm getting a little bit worried about Lone now, he seems to just want to coast on by with an elimination joining both the rockhopper and BM wagons without saying much that wasn't just regurgitated from other players.
Also, clidd needs to learn patience.

Because clidd is by far the most disingenuous person in the game right now. If he's not mafia then that would mean mafia is somewhere within the remaining seven players from my perspective.

If that is the case, why not just go for clidd? How is going for his supposed scumbuddy a reasonable move?

I have no clue why clidd told lone that doc can self-protect, when that is obviously wrong. Is this a scumslip?

BM is voting clidd now

Yeah. I originally TR'ed lone for being newb town, especially with that masons post, but I may have to review his townslips all over again.

A doctor cannot target themselves, so that can't self-protect, I just looked this up on the wiki.

Whaaa...

I still don't get this chain of logic. You think clidd is most likely player to be mafia, but you still don't want to eliminate him because he is a uncontested doctor claim? I thought you chased your SR's really hard...

It is in the sample role PM as well.

And clidd, the doctor would know that. Hence clidd is lying. The question is: why?

No I go after people in proportion to the degree of confidence that I have in my reads I think, and with this one I'm aware that I could have got this whole game completely upside down and wrong so far right now, so I'd rather just get a villager.

Oh, now I understand, Lunar. Yeah, I was wondering about this too. As a doctor with a doctor role PM, he had to have seen it once to confirm his rule. And then, he says:

When the role PM says:
In post 2, borkjerfkin wrote:
Town DoctorWelcome!

You are a
Town Doctor
.

You may target one player per night phase. This player will be protected from kills during that night phase.
You cannot target yourself.


You win when there are no longer any threats to town.


The game thread is here.

Confirm by replying with your role name and alignment.

Notice the bold part, in particular.

Ok, I side with Lunar for this one. Why would you lie to LoneMarkhor, clidd?

Realistically, people make mistakes like that all the time. However, how many people have ever played a game of mafia, either on this forum or anywhere else, where the doctor can protect themselves? Like I don't think I've ever come across that.

1- I was testing reactions, I know what my role can do.

2- Why is people sus of me based on 10-20% or less of chance?

3- Can we like, stop talking about my claim and stuff. I feel like we are giving maf info by doing it.

666th post.

Doctor self-protect is just never a thing. Plus, clidd has played many games, I assume, so he should have experience with this kind of stuff.

The post from Lone gives me town pings though. I wouldn't be surprised if clidd thought Lone was rolefishing again and wanted to know if he could kill clidd during the night and clidd couldn't self protect. That may explain why clidd lied, but I want the real reasons, because I just don't think Lone would ask that question in the thread when 1. he was already caught for potential rolefishing in his masons post, and 2. The info is just in the role PM tab, and he probably would have asked his partner first..

Yeah, but this is kind of NAI since Doctors don't want to talk about their ability anyways.

Pedit: Uh. You didn't get any reactions from that, you know.

Because there are a couple things that just don't line up with your PR claim tbh.

And there is a small chance that both maf were newbies that didn't know much about roles, so I could live N1.

Plausible, but then why didn't you preempt me or somebody else correcting you?
