Too bad none of these numbers are correct. Do your math again.Stewie wrote:The choice is obviously one of Jdodge and TS. [...] If Jdodge is telling the truth:
5 players left. 2 scum. one player dies, making it 4 players, 2 scum. We lose. Else:
5 players left. 1 scum, 1 sk. Two players die, making it 4 players. Could be 1 scum 1 sk, 1 scum, 1 sk or 4 town. I'm not sure which one we should believe right now. My gut tells me TS, my brain says Jdodge. (as he is 100% scum either way).
What "if" JDodge is not an SK, but a mafiate? When you write "if JDodge is telling the truth" it's very confusing. Do you mean, the truth about being a SK, or the truth that he is a mason, or the lie that he might be scum with, er, say, erg0?
Where does Erg0 fit in there? I am sure everyone is curious to know your opinion.

Erg0: this is my suspicion. As you indicated, there's no reason for JDodge to claim if he is what he says -- therefore, he is lying. As an SK, he has no reason to claim SK -- but as mafia, he might be able to save his partner.
Now, who his partner is is an open question. You're the obvious possiblity, but by no means the only one -- TS, CTD, or (from a perspective that isn't mine) I could be bussing him -- but I'm inclined to doubt it, which would point to Stewie as the other good prospect.
Regardless, we get a lot of info (and a confirmed scum lynch) if we lynch JDodge.

I felt my lynch was inevitable, thus I claimed. Simple as that.

I think it's time I stop trying to decode the setup and just vote for who I think is scum. My only remaining concern is what happens with the BCS thing - I suppose JDodge could be the only person looking for BCS candies after all. I really hope so, actually.
Vote: JDodge

After a long day, everyone describes what candy they are. However, more than a few candies smell something rancid about JDodge. They read his label and it clearly says Toffee. But wait a minute, this toffee is from China! Upon inspecting the label closer, they see diethylene glycol. JDodge is poisonous! They quickly DISCONTINUE JDodge and night falls...
JDodge,

Is it your belief that we had two separate killing groups that could join together during the game? That would be a highly unusual mechanic, akin to having a scum-recruitable SK. The most commonly used scum-recruitable role is Traitor, which doesn't grant a kill. I' not even that, unless I have a hidden win condition. We still have one killer at large, and it's not me.

I'm Skittles, a Normal Townie.
There is no recruiting mafia.
Anyone notice that JDodge was a
Godfather
, NOT a "recruiter?"Anyone notice that CTD (spectacular bus of JDodge, I have to admit) was a
Goon
, and NOT a "recruiter?"I am pretty sure mneme is town, on account of flawless pro-town play throughout this game, no hesitation lynching JDodge, etc.
I'd like Stewie to give his candy type. His reluctance to lynch JDodge yesterday is hugely suspicious.
If the Mafia didn't know each other, an extra (a fourth?), recruitable SK might make sense. Either way Erg0 would be responsible for some anti-town night kills. Or maybe they had an option for a second nightkill to make up for the fact that they didn't know each other?
We're 4 players left. Best case scenario: we lynch a killer today, we go to night 3 players. If that's the last killer, and the second nightkills were by a vig, we've won. If not, one of us is night killed, and tomorrow there are 2 players left - a killer and a townie. So... it makes no difference whether we kill a mafiate or a SK.
It comes down to whether I believe that a player had to be recruited to the BCS mafia, or that the players merely had extra hoops to jump through to find each other, probably compensated with extra powers.
Because the night killing method was always the same "lost his sweetness" I am going to guess that the mafia simply had an option for an extra kill - depending on what, I have no idea - to make up for them not knowing each other.
I bet Erg0 is the last mafiate. I am not buying the recruiting business.
vote: Erg0

I am a jawbreaker, townie.
There's four of us left. If two are mafia/sk and we lynch right, we lose. If we lynch wrong, we still have a chance of a crosskill saving us. If we don't lynch, we depend on a cross kill or a failed kill and one scum killing the other to have a chance.
If there's only one scum left, be it mafia or sk, and we lynch right, we win. We lynch wrong and we lose. We no lynch, and there would be three players left tomorrow, one of which is scum, and it would be a repeat of today, but with one less player to choose from.
I also believe that Erg0 is probably the right choice for today, I'll just let you comment on that first (when there's 4 players left it's a good time to talk about no lynching, I think it might be worth discussing).

Apologies for triple post, I'll try to get everything into this one.
Someone is clearly lying about their role, because nothing in the claims explains why CTD didn't get a kill off last night. I can't see him losing his kill power just because the GF is dead. My bet would be that someone is NK immune, knowingly or unknowingly.

I feel a little trapped by my flavour here, because there's nothing I can say to defend my rolename's ties to the mafia. I would like people to actually take my play into account and see if they think it fits with someone who knew they were mafia all along.

I stop mafia from FINDING each other, not recruiting each other. Maybe the endgame is a bit screwed up for the mafia if they don't officially find each other, and maybe that's why we haven't end gamed?
Maybe CTD didn't send a kill. Maybe he used another power instead of a kill? Who knows.
I don't see how "no lynch" is going to help, since we have an opportunity to lynch a scum, namely, Erg0.

I hope that's not the case. There was only one kill last night. There may not be a crosskill at all. There is a chance that we'll be wiped out.Stewie wrote:There's four of us left.

If I were scum I'd have known from the moment JDodge claimed that he was also scum. If we had two kills available at night then I could have forced a no lynch day 3, then two dead townies night 3 = game over.

Scum fakeclaiming mason does not happen nearly as often as you'd think, because it involves exposing definite ties between two scum. If one of us had been NKed or lynched then the other one was certain to die. The downside is far greater than the upside.Toaster Strudel wrote:JDodge and yourself tried to pass each other off as masons... so yes, you would have claimed BCS, because it allowed you to telegraph your allegiance, a shortcut to whatever other method you might had to use at night.Erg0 wrote:So you're basically refusing to consider anything other than flavour in making your vote?
