Jedit are you leaving yourself out of that for any reason other than it being your post?

No, because I'm confirmed Town by a cop investigation.

I'm starting to wonder if you and Hal aren't in a masonry called the scumdoc.

Jedit, I've described my role already. I redirect a person's action to whomever I choose. I've been picking people I've quietly thought are scummy, and making them do whatever they're doing to themselves. If I guess right, a scum suicides.

I remember now. I'm on my phone so without full reference. Same difference, though; unless you're lying about at least one of your role or your target, you can't be scum. Can anything you've claimed be verified?

I don't believe it can be, since I don't get to see any results that aren't public knowledge anyway (deaths).

So Hal and I have been talking and our conclusions are this:

Jedit has a good point about the scum candidates but we should consider no lynching first. aC has a role that can kill scum instantly and since we're likely in MYLO we don't lose any lynches from no lynching. Thoughts?

We had a chat. It's important to listen to people even if you're suspicious of them, you don't have to agree with them.

The no lynch idea was mine though and I said it because I think it's helpful no matter who is scum.

You need to explain your reasoning there. Whether we lynch or not, the scum are going to try to kill me as they really can't let a confirmed Town player go into LYLO. This will gain us no information whatsoever. Even Apostate's target claim is dependent on him telling the truth about his ability, which I don't think can be verified in any way other than him hitting.

Apart from that, the only thing we can presume is that the roleblocker is Town. If they were scum, they would have kept blocking Asiina until he could be killed. Since you and Hal confirm each other as Masons, it's neither of you. So, my suggestion is that we lynch either you or Hal. Then AC can redirect Hal again and whichever of Magnus and Somber is the roleblocker can block the other. Unless AC is lying, or I'm badly wrong about the RB, we can't lose: a scum death will confirm AC and put us into 4MYLO with two confirmed Town, no kill will probably out a member of the scum team and at worst will keep the game going.

Whether or not AC or the roleblocker are town or lying is incidental though, isn't a no-lynch what is going to put us in the place for tomorrow? I don't know if it'll make a huge difference but it can't hurt.

A no lynch makes it less likely that AC or the roleblocker will find their target, and guarantees that whoever dies will be Town - probably me, as I'm confirmed Town and nobody else is. We would go into tomorrow knowing no more than we do now. If we take the shot, we have at least a 40% chance to kill scum followed by a good chance to block the NK - 100%, if one of the Masons is indeed scum and AC is telling the truth about his role. Anyone arguing for a No Lynch at this point is an idiot or scum.

Ummm... that's still better odds that we would hit the wrong person and lose the game though! No-lynching guarantees a tomorrow. I don't see how you can say that. Also I think it's a bit much to assume that there is a scum in a 2 person masonry.

So you can't parse how we maybe had a long talk in our masonry and he didn't think I was scummy after that? Or even if he did he wasn't so sure that he thought no-lynching was safer?

I'm on the fence still about MMM, but you are way over-simplifying here.

No, it isn't. We have exactly the same odds of killing scum today as we do tomorrow.

As for there being scum in the masonry: we have six players, one of whom is a Town roleblocker. AC has a different claimed role, so it's not him. You and MMM are Masons, so it's not you. That leaves me, Magnus and Somber. If neither of the masons is scum then either AC is lying - possible - or the scum team is Magnus and Somber. But that would make me the roleblocker. So where are we?

There six players in this game. If we no-lynch today, there's a chance that AC or the roleblocker will stop the kill. If they don't stop the kill, we have five players and still get a lynch.

If we lynch today and we're wrong, and the kill isn't stopped, then the game is probably over, right?

Or there is a godfather and they wanted to draw an investigation for credit. Or the roleblocker made a move that we can't fully perceive yet because we don't have perfect information, yet you're operating like we do.

If AC was telling the truth, we were 100% certain to win with a lynch. If AC was lying, we had a 25% chance to win if we lynched and a 0% chance to win if we didn't.

We all need to claim. My role has been mostly useless. I'm Mister Wrong, I get different powers based on whether or not I can correctly predict the lynch. It works like

1 Guess - One-use nightvig.
2 Guesses - Investigation
3 Guesses - Protection.

I've been aiming for an investigation every night. I only got it right one time when I guessed AC/YPM back on night three. I used it on Hal, who investigated as town.

So we have

Jedit - Roleblocker
Hal - Mason, investigated as town.
Manikin - Miller, mason.
Me - Guesser

What's up Magnus?
