I disagree, because if someone experienced was guiding him through daytalk, he would have made him vote the whole playerlist before selfhammering.

But share why you think it was Loki who guided him anyway?

Considering his first few posts, I believe that his nonsense at the end of the day was his own doing.

That's actually quite a good point, not like he had anything left to lose.

Nacho has mostly felt like town-Nacho and I liked his Gaiden and Shadowcat pushes.

That seems like a reasonable conclusion, but yeah, I'd really like to see some more posts from them.

That is what I would have done, yes, but I do not think every player necessarily thinks like that. Some players are less mindful of the setup and mechanics than others (even as scum).

And I can't really tell you why I think that at this point in time, though maybe Loki himself will tell you why I think that (or at least acknowledge he knows why I would think that).

If only this cryptic bullshit would end and you would be open with your thoughts, we would all be much happier.

'Opaque' might be a bit of an exaggeration.

Either way, I'm happy to at least wait for Loki to respond since I doubt we're going to be able to get anything out of you before that happens.

I imagine we would. It is cryptic, but it's not done with ill intentions.

Sorry for my poor piss last day play. I had exams coming up and probably should of put myself on V/LA. That being said we should claim darkness. Assuming scum can easily calculate how much darkness everyone has by checking votes, D1 gametime, and how much they increased it by, we won't be giving them any information they don't already have. I'll wait for input before claiming.

#easterholidays so I'll read the thread a couple times and bring myself back up to speed.

I don't see any harm in claiming darkness but I don't really see why it would be helpful either?

Skold, what do you think about flavour claiming? WN brought it up before.

Skimmed this morning the most recent posts at 5am, but wasn't awake enough to process all.

Shadowattack: Zel


Interactions D1 felt weird, awkward and forced. Like scum trying to hide a secret. Also asking notscience what his darkness level felt off too.

Will elaborate more after work.

Also willing to switch to Thor / Loki as I'm not feeling town from either of the heads. They feel like their playing to their scum meta.

I got a big gut feel that Skold could, infact, be scum this game.

This is too shallow. Zelink does not hide the fact he's being cryptic for his own reasons, so scumreading him for that feels fake.

What's wrong about asking for darkness levels?

Waiting for elaboration on this. I want specific posts and why they indicate scum Nacho over town Nacho.

To be clear, in regards to whatever point you're trying to make about the darkness question, there's only two still-alive people that it's even worthwhile asking about (notscience and T&L), since nobody else (apart from Taly) was voted yesterday, ergo nobody else should have had different amounts of darkness (unless something interfered).

notscience just happened to be around at the time so I asked him specifically.

ello, are we flavor claiming?

I don't see much benefit in flavour claiming. Darkness claiming could be useful so as to determine who is going to die next. However, upon revisitation someone could claim to have 60% darkness and we'd take them as town. It's far too easy a claim for scum to be useful.
pedit: Just saying this is a pedit. Nothing else. Baiii.

Notscience: We are Naomi.
Zelink: Today is my day off. When do you want me to be around?
Sakura: Zelink's strange obsession with me is probably related to the fact that we are IRL brothers.

Because if this is some dumb "Naomi killed Seiko in flavor thus probably killed her last night" shit I'm gonna fly down to north carolina and kick your ass.

...oh

That was your last post giving any kind of read on lufan whatsoever, and it doesn't match what you just said. Can you go into your thought process here please?

I still would like to know what the justification for policy lynching lufan was, too. You never answered that yesterday.

I'm not convinced on mass claiming flavor. I don't see what kind of information it will give to the overall picture.
