You guys are confirming that scum would be completely truthful to each other.

Which, if I have an alternate win condition outside of being scum, I wouldn't be.

Im sure there are people who are just as likely to color claim to their scum partner to figure the setup out?

If I was scum in this setup I'd color claim to my scum buds and do exactly what keane did.

You're trusting scum with an alternate victory condition to be truthful. I wouldn't.

Scum don't even get an advantage in figuring the setup out, after all. The game is solvable for each individual after two deaths, and the entire game after three.

True but its all speculation and isnt that helpful , that was my point.

The simplest way around it would be for everyone to post their 'solved' setup on Day 2.

I can see that, based on flips and our own roles and colors we should probably have a pretty good guess as to what setup we are in tomorrow.

Actually, scratch that. Barring an Oracle flip, I have a better idea.

Everyone discloses the one setup it can't be.

The only people who would know what setup it isn't are scum and PRs. The fact that you didn't recognize that makes me think that you do have an idea of what set-up it isn't.

Because you're scum.

You're an idiot.

    Exhibit A

    Configuration A: Ruled out publicly by two Red Town flips OR Red Cop flip OR Blue Scum flip.

    Configuration B: Ruled out publicly by two Blue Town flips OR Blue Cop flip OR Red Scum flip.

    Configuration C: Ruled out publicly by two Red Town flips OR Blue Cop flip.

    Configuration D: Ruled out publicly by two Blue Town flips OR Blue Cop flip.

    Exhibit B

    All games are solvable to at least one role with no more than two deaths.

Therefore, public knowledge will rule out one game type on Day 2. The remainder of the roles can then be determined by what people say the game isn't.

Addendum: No public information is gained from opposite townspeople dying. I forgot to mention that bit.

Nah, it doesn't require all of the vanilla townspeople to claim.

I am leaving "what roles could disavow what setup" entirely as an exercise for the reader, however.

Missed the bit about Oracles and their flip.

Either way, we haven't had one claim and it's not as if there's any danger.

I'm more amused at PM's insinuation that trying to solve the game is a scum thing to do.

I don't think you're trying to solve the game, I think you're trying to mislead people into claiming, either for a scum or color victory.

So claim your color.

I asked for a color. He gave me color and role, likely in an attempt to seem more personable and reasonable to the rest of the game. Sort of like Billy Mays, minus the cocaine and yelling.
