Hello, yes! Is being very good day for posting, no?
Hello I am sorry that I have not been in the thread. I wound up away for the weekend visiting family, and on Monday my cat was sick (he is still unwell :(). Anything that I need to be on the lookout for as I catch up?

I agree that Cpig has done nothing, that's just sort of... normal for him! Stubbornly voting me for like 3 days without actually replying to posts about why not to lynch me, just saying his own reasoning over and over again, was something I found very classic Cpig.

Oh. This is where the lack of a meta-game probably fucks me.

I don't really have much else to say. Again, CCKeane made his case against me, and honestly most of his points are fair. I have said a lot without making proclamations or commitments, but that's because I think being overconfident is typically unhelpful. My lynching is a solid example of this. CCKeane makes his case confidently and doesn't use any conditional statements, and obviously, it works. Unfortunately, it's going to lead to another Town lynch.

With two people in a Masonry, a claimed 3P survivor, myself, and PMush who I feel pretty confidently is Town at this point, that leaves 6 people who could be scum. One of them is Lord of Hats, who hasn't posted in almost a week, so, nix that.

My best guess at this point is CPig.


He was incredibly quick to believe Ecco and throw a vote onto Krell day #1 (as in, within 2 minutes). He then unvoted hastily and finished the day without a vote.

Since then, he has done literally nothing but push for the lynch of BottleKnight, vehemently arguing that a third party is against the Town's interests. He has acknowledged that we would have to lynch him twice in order to remove him from the game, but he's kept his vote. This seems like the easiest way for a scum player to lay low and ensure that his vote is never against a Town player. Further, he hasn't given any input on any of today's developments.

##vote CapitalistPig

You are trying to use his joke phase vote against him. CPig isn't wrong in that a 3p survivor is bad for town and the only reason I haven't advocated lynching him is because everyone else believes what BK claimed....so your case on him is what..he hasn't hunted scum? I'm sure he is unique in that aspect.

I think CPig putting himself out there pushing an unpopular lynch against BK is not something a scum would do. It seems like something a town would do.

Unlike your weak case against him, which I find scummy.

I can prevent all actions from happening for one night.

I haven't used the power yet since it gives us less information. I could use it tonight to prevent a death, but we'd lose any tracking information or mason recruitment. I was hoping to save it for when the town was smaller.

Actually, not posting opinions about potential townies and instead 3P hunting is incredibly scummy. Cpig is just lurking and should probably replace out so it's hard to get a real read on him. vOv

I think the benefit of potentially have another mason, or having the tracker follow scum, is more beneficial than a night of not losing a Town player. Adding a mason is a permanent benefit that can easily swing the game in the Town's favor -- if there are 9 players left and 3 are in the Masonry, the likelihood of lynching scum is high. If the tracker follows scum, that's as good as having a cop.

If I use the power now, yes, it buys us a little more time, but that's it. If I were to use it when there are only 9, or even 7 players, it becomes incredibly helpful because we've maximized the amount of night information we can receive and avoided a kill.

I just realized your quote in this post caught my ninja. I just want to clarify that I added the word "potential" before townies because I was using the word townies to label everyone that is not the claimed 3P, as I do not want it to be misconstrued as "I know who the townies are b/c I am scum" because that is not the case.

I am not sure about the number of scum. I was speculating, because it is useful to know how much time is left in the game and to make potential connections between players.

Why would scum intentionally give that information away?

If you had used your power, you clear yourself as essentially confirmed town and we don't lose anyone else that night? Your argument isn't making much sense. Not to mention we know scum have a RB of some sort and already blocked the tracker once...so what kind of information were you wanting to get?

I also don't think we should lynch BottleKnight today. With 11 players left, I would guess that 3 are scum. This would make the initial set up 3 scum, 1 traitor, and 1 third party, which seems reasonably fair. If we lynch BK, we have a 0% chance of finding scum.

This is the post in question. I have no idea what the problem with this is.

I think the argument makes perfect sense, and you are being obtuse.

Assuming that there's one one roleblocker, he can't block the Masonizer and the Tracker.

For all we know we could be lrol today and not even know it. Thats what's so scary. I'm not faulting them for not using the power (if it exists) the day we lost 3 town. Or the following night. I'm faulting them for using it as an excuse for why we shouldn't lynch them.

Again, just like with Aggro, that is not why I am voting you. It is very sensible for both town and scum to leave me alive. But your weird analysis of the game in that post coupled with your bad AR vote and just sort of general lack of content make me believe you are scum.
