I'm proud of you, Bender. Sure, you lost. You lost bad. But the important thing is I beat up someone who hurt my feelings in high school.

As loathe as I am to agree with CPig, I think that scum very well might be Jedit. That early vote on MMM still strikes me as the single most out of place post in the game. It just jumps out at me when I read the thread. I mean, sure, he could be joking, or he could be trying to build a case and build momentum.

Later on, Jedit posts this:


And the reference to being back to joke phase also strikes me as noteable. When did we leave joke phase indeed? Was it CPig's fake investigation claim? Or was it when Jedit voted on MMM? Jedit himself was unaware at the time that we were currently in N0. That action could very well have been genuine, and I don't care for it.

##vote Jedit

This is awful and I would vote Meinberg for it.

Jedit already said he was joking, and I don't know how Meinberg missed it when reviewing his post history to make the case. Plus how is commenting that we went back to joke phase scummy? The argument doesn't even make sense.

Thoughts everyone?

I'm trying to make sure we don't no-lynch!

Manikin, a cop can be scum or a godfather could be town, etc. Foo says that only two of these roles were locked in terms of alignment. He set the distribution and then randomly assigned the existing alignments.

That argument holds no water because you don't know what roles were locked down or why. It being nonsensical to have a scum Cop, it would make sense for that to be one of the locked down roles.

MMM is essentially a double voter today. So we could get a lynch on Jedit.

I dunno guys. I think the idea that there must be a scrum in the biggest masonry is maybe dumb, could be a huge red herring. There's no real reasoning behind it other than that it is statistically a little more probable.

A) It's actually 11 players
B) I ran the numbers

If there's 2 scum, then there's a ~27% that no one in the masonry is scum, based on random distribution. If there's three scum, only ~12%. Three scum seems unlikely, but possible. 2 scum and a 3P is more probable.

Jedit is my #1 scum candidate. I don't like the way he was reluctant to share his role's name, and the way he acted like revealing what his role was would exonerate him, in this, a game with mostly randomized alignments. There are a few roles I have in my mind that would be ideal for the set alignments, but the Hocus absolutely isn't one of them.

Which means that I have only his behavior to fall back on, and it just pings my gut as scummy.

Sure, why not. It's not like anything else is happening. I'm in an unconfirmed mason group with Winson, Grandi, Meinberg, and Maltose. I can't vote any of them today. It should be temporary and it's related to other stuff. I have had pretty good interactions with Meinberg and Grandi and I feel fairly confident they're town. If I had to guess that one player in my group it'd be Winson, based on something he said about how he was planning on exercising as much caution as possible which struck me as odd. Could easily be Maltose though, dude has hardly been around.

Well, that's complete bullshit, because the Hocus absolutely is a likely candidate for set alignment. The wiki even describes the character by the name of a role that is by definition third party. That role is also impossibly dangerous, which is why I was reluctant to claim; I already explained this. Luckily for you, Foo is not stupid enough to put an investigation-proof Cult Leader with a Night 0 recruit in an 11-player game. It does, however, provide a good distraction for the scum.

We have been talking about this in the mason doc at some length, but I think Jedit is unlikely to be scum and unlikely to be a cult as well.
This is an 11 player game, first off, that is not a large enough game to support a cult. On top of that there was a nightkill. Having both a scum team and a cult would be absurd in an 11 player game. It could be over D3 (3 lynches, 2 night kills, 2 recruits = 6 Alive, 3 in the cult) and town could still be "doing well" if they lynch the scum in that scenario.
