Yeah I think it could be DB/Pod.

Let me run through possible combinations.

Birb is my friend (also his results have come through) and I know I'm not scum, so scum must be spread out between the remaining two masonries.

BK+Pod and Xad+DB

BK/DB: Unlikely since why would BK bus his scumbro like this.
Pod/DB: Maybe
BK/Xad: Xad and BK visited DB so not possible
Pod/Xad: Pod could have killed Solus and Xad did ??? to DB, this is kinda unlikely though since nothing bad happened to him.

Yeah, so it looks like the scum team is DB/Pod.

idc which one we vote

This assessment conveniently leaves out two possibilities - that you're scum, or that scum had a sham masonry in addition to their scumchat as a safeguard against what I assume is people who lose their masonbud join the other masonries, now that we know Solus joined all remaining masonries briefly.

It's secondary to the DB thing at hand, but I don't want people to take the way Asiina's laid it out as concrete facts.

I've been wondering the same thing all day and the only real point in his favor is that even when solus mentioned that he was in EVERY masonry, DB didn't try to get him to spill the beans on claims that may have been made, which would have been incredibly useful for scum. That, and the fact that killing solus INSTEAD of doing that as scum seems like a mistake, BUT knowing that solus and DB had agreed to cop each other, you'd kinda HAVE to kill Solus or be prepared to argue that he's an insane cop

solus seemed pretty sure that if there were only 2 scum, they definitely weren't in the same masonry, and probably weren't me and DB, because me and DB had claimed to each other, and nobody else had

granted, DB didn't bring up his role until after solus claimed cop, so that's not exactly a point in DB's favor

if DB was the only player seen going to Solus, then it seems incredibly likely that it was DB, otherwise there's a ninja NK, but I don't know how likely that is in a game this small

I'm all for a massclaim at this point, I think

Also I am glad you started playing today, I was semi-casing you in my masonry on D1 to Beek and Solus on N1 but this is good. I'm skeptical that DB would have been ballsy enough to try and press Solus when you were right there, and it makes more sense that he would simply go for cutting the Gordian Knot since a townie in every masonry (which he told you two and nobody else) is a huge boon for town in terms of information gathering. That would have been a lot to bring to the table today.

I can confirm Solus was in our masonry and didn't mention being anywhere else.

Solus did mention that he/she kept that info away from players he/she didn't trust in my masonry, so I'm going to take the word of a known town player.

But I will say, after re-reading you Pod you do read like I would expect town Pod to read.

My vote on you was the result of the numbers game which I think Xad touched on here:

Xad posted:

Okay, so so far we have:

28766f69642a2930: watched DB, saw Xad and beek
Asiina: ???
BottleKnight: tracked DB to Solus
Dick Bastardly: copped Solus, got a town result
Podima: ???
Solus: Copped DB, died
Xad: Doc DB, success

and Toal was a PGO

if everyone is telling the truth, Pod and asiina are scum

however one important detail I missed was the bolded part, which is highly unlikely, not to mention you had no input to lie about regardless.

so my suss was overzealous and I see that now

Xad, Town aligned Doctor, was killed Night 2.

Scum Team Asiina and Podima have won the game.

So I made a game where every masonry had one killing role and one town help role. This was mostly just a test of the 'adding people to masonries' idea, which has sparked some really cool ideas for me for future games. Thanks for trying out my new ideas

We did it! :toot:

I was a Ninja/Juggernaut (my choice) and Asiina was a Godfather.

Asiina and I submitted a kill on DB Night 1 (ninja) and were VERY CONFUSED about mysterious redirection hijinks when Solus died instead - we never even considered that an 8 person game with a scumteam of 2 would also have a SK.

One of I think my favorite ideas coming out of this game will be to create a large game with pairs, and no scum chat by default. Scum will have to find each other by murdering other people to shrink the possible masonries they could be in, and it'd be very interesting to see how the game plays out from there. It'd have to be an open setup and defined ahead of time, but it would be a cool extra bit of puzzle solving

I love that it was a totally fabricated case that Solus joining the masonry and suggesting they investigate each other ended up trapping DB into killing him, but that's what actually happened. :allears:

An interesting setup. I think in a small game having guaranteed one scum only per masonry does make it pretty solvable, but I do like the idea of lonely masons getting to hang out with everyone else.

The effort-intensive (but not really) way to do it is to create new masonry channels for each day so that newcomers don't get the previous day's backlog.

the Death Note game had neato mechanics like this, since everyone wasn't necessarily in a discord channel with their own alignment, and nobody knew who anyone was except the scum/death note peoples I think

I'm going to keep posting cause I'm a bit sour and I didn't think I should have been lunched d1. So just a warning sour grapes ahead.

I think people really have a problem in this game separating the content of a post from the style of the post. As I understand it, people generally think I'm scummy cause the way I argue and express myself is scummy. Basically stylistically I act scummy. But time and time again posters who choose not to put themselves out there with arguments succeed more often then not as scum!

This means that people who tend not to express themselves or make arguments are more likely to be scum, because they're trying to win with the most effective strategy. This paired with the fact that I was one of the few people actually scum hunting day one (I'm not sure if Pod or Asiina count, and a few people offered reads but I made a case) I'm not sure why I was lunched D1. The most effective scum hunting tool, as Merk described it to me one game and something I earnestly believe, is to look for un-genuine scum hunting. So what about my case day 1 was un-genuine?

Basically, I think people are so wrapped up in the style of a post (the best scum post to make is one that cool and smug because town assumes that's innocence for some reason) that they refuse to look at intentionality. Idk, just trying to understand what was so bad about my d1.
