That just leaves you and Pig. Pig is being a poo poo head, but it is a shithead consistent with his town game.

So your POE is that I'm the only scum in an 11 player game? That makes no sense.

Why are Meinberg and Jedit town? Just curious.

The only thing I've seen about Meinberg is that Somber liked his thoughts in the mason doc. Hardly definitive.

poo poo, ok, I keep forgetting that. You are still scum.

Somber investigated me as town.
Somber claimed to Meinberg n1 and wasn't killed. Also mason chat and flavor stuff. Also I'm not dead after claiming vig.
Winson busdrove Maltose and Jedit N1. Jedit was the kill target and therefore town. Winson drove the kill and is therefore town.
I claimed vig and the intention to shoot you last night, since you are scum, and I'm not dead all members of somber's masonry are town.

Juan investigated Hal as town according to somber. So either they are gambitting scum pulling people into a masonry wherein they wasted n0 action to recruit a scumbuddy just to clear him to the town they pull in later, and if either of them flipped down the line their whole strat would be pulled to the ground.

That leaves you and pig.

I have to go back to work, but no dont lynch me. No one has made a case against me at all. I'm somehow scum even though other people have behaved scummy (CPig) or barely even participated (Juanito, Hal, Grandi, Jedit).

If you want to make an actual case against me, fine do it. But at least give me a chance to defend myself. 2 of the 3 votes on me are just "me too" votes with no justification.

Since my poo poo got blown up, I might as well claim.

I can investigate or send a message to someone every night.

Night 0, I investigated Hal, and by coincidence he recruited me to his gang. He is world aligned.

Night 1, he recruit Somber, and I investigated Somber, but my investigation failed, although he got recruited successfully. The fact that Hal's action succeeded and mine failed made us a little uneasy about Somber.

Night 2, I don't know who Hal recruited because nobody was posting in the mason doc since I was traveling, and Hal hadn't been around much. I investigated Winson and he's world aligned. Hal hasn't said who he recruited yet.

Somber had confided in me that he had used his investigative ability on Grandi on N0 and got a town result. Since there's nothing to suggest that Somber's sanity might be in question, or that Grandi's role would provide Godfather status, I choose to believe this.

I feel quite chagrined myself, as I chose to investigate Somber last night, instead of protecting him. He had been fairly sure that the scum would be going after him, but my doubt kept me back, especially after MMM flipped town. If FV is not scum, then I'm positive that our scum is somewhere between Hal and Juan.

So you're a doc, but you chose not to protect anyone last night? Do you have any way to back up your claim?

Agreed. I actually think its Meinberg and Cpig. Meinberg has barely posted in the thread and only got active at the end of D2 to jump on Somber's case on MMM. He posts something, gets called scummy and disappears from the game over and again.

Can someone from the masonry let us know what Meinberg has said on 2 points.

1. Has Meinberg said anything in thread to back up his claim that he had "doubts" about Somber
2. What did Meinberg reveal in the masonry about his abilities? Has he been able to prove any of his claim?

I dont like this quote and I'd like to know if there is anything to back this up that he's said OOT. It seems really convenient to not protect Somber the same night that Somber gets killed.

I'd love to know how you managed to get one night action to fail on Somber but not another. On me, no problem, but Somber didn't have my immunity.

Grandi, your process of elimination revolves around Juanito claiming two Town investigations but no scum - something scum can do quite easily as they know who the not-scum are - and Winson telling the truth about who he drove on Night 1. It doesn't work and I won't vote Valkyrie because of it.

Why would you claim a cop investigation to a dude who mason recruited you on n0? It isn't scum logic. You don't make a claim like that because it is bad town play unless you actually do have a cop investigation. As scum, you are then expected to fake results every day which either breaks down when you have to claim scum on someone and you mislynch them, which will turn around and get the cop lynched, or you have to serve up a scum buddy. It is a dangerous gambit to make that early. If you do it on a later day, you can at least sprinkle in some dead people investigations.

So, what makes sense to me is one of 2 scenarios.

Hal and Juan are scum together.
Hal's ability is to recruit into a masonry.
Juan's ability is unimportant.
Hal recruited Juan n0, to set up a cop claim on n1 to a townie dude.
Kind of like that game where merk claimed confirmed town mason with ecco.
This scenario is a huge risk. What if there is a real cop? If either of them flipped at any time it would cast huge doubt on the other. It would also allow them to float through the game unmolested if their claim was bought.

Scenario 2 is as follows:
Hal is a mason recruiter.
Juan is a cop.
Hal recruited Juan n0.
Juan copped Hal n0 with a town result.
This is a bit of a coincidence, but not an implausible one.

That is all. So, scenario 1 is a huge risk\reward scenario, but in my opinion it would be way to hard to pull off successfully that early. If it is a gambit, then the breadcrumb is obviously part of it because the whole drat thing was premeditated from the word go.
The other possibility is scenario 2 but hal is a godfather mason recruiter.

On my phone so I can't review properly, but is there any evidence that Hal actually is a mason recruiter? It seems odd in a game that started with almost half the players in one masonry to have not one but two expandable masonries as well.

We'd love to know as well. I'm guessing that I was blocked, or something.

Also if I were scum and this were my crazy plan, why wouldn't I just say that I investigated Somber as town, instead of saying it failed?

Another point in his favor. Unless he tried to kill somber and it failed so he knew any proposed action would ahve failed too or something. But Occam's razor points to if you are making up a lie, you don't throw in details that discredit your own lie.

Somber said he'd confirmed someone as town, but didn't tell us who. Did he tell you guys? (maybe you've already said, and I missed it).

He mostly wanted to go for MMM, and Cpig, but also would have voted FV.

Somber told me not to do for him (in the doc), so I didn't. I bussed Hal/Juan last night because I misread things I think. Sombrero would have been my guess for the night hit and I probably would have switched for him if he had not told me not to.
