Man that is confusing.

Out of curiosity why are you thinking MMM-Grandi are both town/both scum? Why not one of each?

It's a hunch. Certainly if Grandi is scum his game makes no sense if MMM is Town - he's saying that either we lynch him to confirm a Townie or lynch a single Townie to confirm him as scum. If we flipped him as Town, we'd have to consider the possibility that he's right, but we have no evidence and at least three people have been acting scummier than MMM.

Opop also likes to play with expectations, so I wouldn't put it past him to make an unconfirmed masonry of Townies.

Hal, you mentioned you thought Jam was legit. I don't get that vibe from reading his posts, especially



Heh, that doesn't sound sincere at all.

Yeah I don't know now. At first his "I'm sorta lost" think felt real to me but looking back now I don't know why I thought that. Also now knowing Ixt was scum this jumps out at me a bit more:

I agree with the first half, but not necessarily the second. Day 1 really hosed things up and now it feels like Day 2 is going to be D1 minus a townie.

After I said we should just turbo Ixt to start D2 and get back on track. (the half he didn't agree with was turboing Ixt, for reference)

Then pretty much everything else was just "oh no everyone sorry I have no ideas", and a little too much of that.

So him or TT, in retrospect they are both worse than ST. But he's bad too. And so is Grandi.

In fact pretty much everyone except maybe Jedit has been pretty bad.

Yeah I thought I was gonna be more involved in this game but then the first two days were so awful that I kind of got apathetic. And my brain is absolutely melted right now from a half dozen things IRL and I can't focus long enough to read this game.

This is contrary to what you just said. You don't want to be shot but you are unlikely to be able to focus or participate in the game. So even if you are town you are of limited value.

My only objection to that is TT's claim to be a Lynchbomb. If we think TT is also a strong suspect then we should shoot him instead, to eliminate any risk if his claim is true.

I think you've missed the point. After Jamuraan flips there'll be seven players left. If TT is a Lynchbomb, then lynching him will drop us to five going into night. Unless there's only one scum alive at that point, that's game over. If you'd shot TT instead, then we'd go into night with six players left and be reasonably sure of getting another shot tomorrow. Summary: we now have one less mistake to work with.

Good, the sooner this game is put out of its misery the better. The outage mostly killed it. It's D4, and we're only on page 12. Hasn't been even a full page of posts for D4 yet.

Bodyguard is the Doc variant that redirects the kill to himself, right? So this wouldn't explain why we only had one kill on Night 2, not that it matters now.

So, we just going for TT or does someone else have a plan?

Because TT might be a lynchbomb which means that 2 will die for the price of one and this game is more likely to be over.

I can't exactly say I don't sympathise with Juanito's point of view, as I was wondering if we shouldn't abandon the game last week. However, I do think TT is the best pick for scum because of that Lynchbomb claim, which came right after him trying to drag the game back into joke phase two hours before deadline on Day 1. I also think his interaction with ST at that time looks forced, with ST pushing TT in a very non-committal way and TT bantering back.

Why does this make him scum over me I do not understand

You used a thing you said mostly about me as a point against him and I am fairly sure you have seem me scum at least enough to know that I am a very bussy scum

I mostly point this out because regardless of the tt flip it feels like it is an early segway into a me chain lynch and it is sketching me a bit
