Faraday, Tammy and I have almost never been online at the same time over the past few days. We mostly just play telephone tag on Skype with a handful of unexplained reads
and complaints from Tammy that mollie mischaracterized her
. (And to be honest, I still HAVEN'T reread ActionDan, but I think I'd tacitly approved a vote on him by PoE before she asked me.) Also, I've completely put this game on the back-burner, because I'm a terrible slacker and a much worse hydra partner than Tammy is.
The bulk of my opinions have been the same town reads everyone else has, so I felt like it was pointless to chime in when Tammy was already posting until I 1) had a better handle on the scummier players, and 2) was jumping headfirst into the action and had an active lead to follow. (Nothing has really changed since my last longwinded post, except that Gamma is looking more town and UT/Fate are increasingly obvtown. I never had an active
scum
read on YNGO, but disliked quite a few of their posts; that said, I know Reck can be pretty sloppy as town and see twinges of engagement and genuine frustration. Also, Tammy seems really confident that he's town.)
But coincidentally, before seeing your last few posts, I did just tell Tammy, "Um...actually, Reck is probably just gambiting, because upon reflection, the flavour is ridiculous." Except I didn't actually want to say this in the thread, because we're still not lynching him D1 no matter how annoying it is, it's not even an alignment tell for Reck, and I didn't want to encourage certain people. (Now it doesn't matter anymore.)

Oh. Also, I buy Triforce's survivor claim--the annoyance sells it. And I guess some hydra dissonance over Tammy's Eaglekit town read--I admittedly don't know either Mala or Desp as well as she does, but I think she's really overthinking it. And I found it weird that they switched between finding mollie town again after Tammy called her towh and then suspecting her again without missing a beat.

Guess which posts were me and which were Tammy!
To give your theory even more fuel, Faraday, actually, checking the Skype logs, I didn't even mention ActionDan to Tammy since like before we even voted mollie, and it was a really offhanded "he COULD be scum." So...never mind. Also, as much as I actually sympathize with your paranoia this time around, go away. Tonight is a really bad time for me to start playing the game.

That claim is almost as bullshit as recks but were lynching this one
as much as I actually sympathize with your paranoia this time around
, go away.
Wait a minute. Never mind. I actually just ISO'd my slot. I don't sympathize at all. It's
Tammy
. Why are you even going through the motions?

So you sympathize with my paranoia but then reread to make sure. Right ok. Ignoring you until near the end of day. Go away until I decide if that's fake stupid or just you making no sense whatsoever.

so uh
is there a reason why we haven't lynched the claimed third party yet
because a survivor claim really takes all the risk out of the risk/reward dynamic of lynching a dude here and comes with the super amazing bonus of possibly being a scum fakeclaiming

Probably because the PR part of the claim has pro-town utility.
Would take crazy luck to verify it tho (at least the protection part), so I could understand it being worth the best WCS thing and lynching.

yeah fuuuuuuck letting third party claims stay alive because they claim to be nice and helpful and bring sugarplums to your house at night
you kill that shit because they do not care about helping you win and they have no reason not to lie their ass off about the other parts of their role to stay alive longer
plus the fact that if you think you're completely fucked as scum then doing something ridiculous like claiming 3rd party and hoping for the best is kind of fine

like rhinox did the same thing in mafia reverberation approximately a billion years ago as scum and he wasn't even completely screwed, and probably would have even lived since his scum PR matched up well with a plausible 3rd party role except we could lynch multiple people a day in that game if everyone was around for a weird deadline clusterfuck

Yes I agree with you but that is probably why.
Also ActionDan is a scummy active lurker.

I'm admittedly gullible when it comes to this kind of shit, but the claim is just oddly specific, and the way they claimed (talking about not surviving until endgame and wanting). It also feels as though they came clean.

Okay, it's obvious you're genuinely annoyed, so I'll leave you alone.
I can sympathize with you being paranoid of
me
. For one thing, notwithstanding the colour thing (which I was evasive about), I haven't actually done anything this game, and I could have totally faked what I
have
done. And my memory of Tammy's most recent posts was that they were somewhat trollish and fluffy, since she was a goofy mood, so I could maybe buy a scumread. But then I ISO'd myself to see your PoV, and was confused by why you of all people didn't pick up on certain signs in Tammy's posts. (On a side note, am I the only one who ISOs myself? Am I just really self-absorbed?) You have the right to question us, but I wanted to know where your read was coming from and how sincere/organic it was, particularly when you were one of the first to declare us town, had us in your top town tier, and crowed about your 100% Tammy reading accuracy.
Also, if you really think about it, me doing nothing in a Tammy hydra should make you less paranoid! Just take a deep breath, relax, and realize that it doesn't matter at all this game that I could hypothetically play you like a fiddle if I were scum. ^_^

I didn't proofread that. Gah. What I mean is that all the stuff about debating claiming right away etc. looks real. This might sound like crazy hippie talk, but I also feel like the tone of their posts became more
relaxed
after the Survivor claim, which is a sign they're being more honest/transparent than before the claim.
I'm kind of tempted to use Triforce as a doctor on a leash, actually.

lynch the claimed 3rd party
best case scenario they're 3rd party
worst case scenario they're fakeclaiming scum

I believe the Triforce claim. Still confident that the Dan wagon must happen. Prozac is now in my 'hard town' list.
