I really don't think there's a risk of an early lynch. Take your time and feel free to keep posting. The more data I have the more I can work with, and if you're town you have literally nothing to fear. The two people voting for you are both seen as suss by many, so who knows! Scum trying to lead the vote away from Tithin? Could be.

I will have to wait till I get home - but it's mainly the fact that beet has been pretty aggressive (when he used to be such a chill guy) and has had to corrected too many times. Especially by TOML.

Well now that FS has shown up, he sounds like he's making way more sense than Tithin. Has this affected your predictions, Gaspy? I'm up for moving my vote to Tithin since his stuff about all you 3 being all in cahoots, even the cop, was just impossible.

I'm honestly suspicious of any and all actions you take Bif so do as you like. Tithin has had two modes this game, "completely wrong", and now apparently "utterly useless" so again, if town, it's sad but not the end of the world. His defense has been very scummy though, grasping at straws, wild situations, and going all "oh I don't even care, not going to try" along with parroting a lot of milky's phrases. So yeah, he could very well be scum, hoping to hit the same notes and play upon the potential newfound mercy of the players.

Yeah this, FS has the luxury of time and distance, Tithin kind of got slapped in the face with the whole thing AND is having a poo poo time of things at the moment, so it could be less "faux milky play" and more "actual milky gently caress this".

That being said, that is EXACTLY the kind of doubt you'd want to play upon as scum.

While I appreciate the thought, I really don't need or want any sympathy right now, because I'm liable to blow up.

Yeah, I'm having a lovely day but I genuinely think he's scum.

If you dudes think I'm scum for pushing it so hard, that's fine, this is the hill I'm willing to die on because I think it's extremely unlikely that the game setup would allow for a princess.

If Asphyxious isn't a princess, my next bet is that he's mafia and was busdriven on the night that WFD did the investigation.

I still think it's more likely he's a princess.

If he weren't counselling me so hard against voting for Beet that's what I'd be doing.

Look okay, but think. Assume, for a moment that it IS so. Then who? Who else? It's not me. I'm princess town. A lot of my confidence stemmed from having a lynch-resistant role as well as my fearsome intellect, if you can look around your misguided preconceptions then who's next?? Give us some place to look.

There was some theorizing about WFD maybe being a naive cop, but FS has pointed out this would be kind of silly to have a godfather then, so he was presumably going off that data.

Because no one else has come out and said "That's bullshit, you're not a cop, I'm the cop."

There pretty much has to be a cop in this game because there's a Godfather - a class that is meaningless without a cop.

Well if WFD is lying about being a cop, anyone else who really is a cop could come and counterclaim. This would force a 1-on-1 situation where one of them has to be lying scum. Not a smart idea for scum to bring this situation on themselves when it would be so quickly proven wrong by one of them getting lynched.

We pretty much have to have 1 town cop cause there's a godfather. If WFD is town but lying about his results, that is really counterproductive and I can't see any reason for it.

I tried my best to imply that I had some sort of data. I kept calling out the noisy posters but never said anything about TOML because after N1 I knew he was town. I hadn't collected anything super worthwhile so didn't want to claim and then rely on a doctor I didn't even know we had. I wanted to try and do the same thing today with Asphyxious but things started getting carried away.

Depends. We let Tithin live, whats he doing tomorrow? More of the same? Just going to keep giving up/doing nothing etc?

I think a train on Avs at some stage is a pretty solid idea, but I have a scratch in the back of my head that either Tithin or Bif is the key mafia player and if it IS tith, now is the time to do it.

Lynching a player on the basis of "well they're not giving us anything" is what we did to Milky, and look how well that worked out.

One way or another tomorrow will be a new day with new information. There'll be a new nightkill (probably What's For Dinner) and potentially a new investigation result.

i am straight-up going to accuse wfd and gaspy of being in cahoots here.

i think they're both scum

i think they either arranged for tirade to be turbo-lynched on the first day to get the shade off them or because he was genuinely being a pretty lovely scum player (roleplaying even after it was obvious it was going to get him lynched) who would do them more harm than good in the long run even though he was a godfather

and i think they decided on gaspy's ridiculous princess claim to stop him from getting lynched, while also preventing people from questioning why the scum weren't killing him despite his major role in the tirade lynching (because we can all see it would be far more valuable to scum to leave him alive and let him stir the other townspeople up into a frenzy with his insufferable smugposting until they all lynch each other, or finally get sick of him, lynch him anyway, and give scum two night moves)

and wfd roleclaimed cop to get the heat off him

absolutely nobody is suss on toml, including me, so wfd picked toml as a surefire town to back up his cop claim. why would he even investigate toml on the first night? why not gaspy or beet or bif or, like, anybody else? cops don't go around investigating people they're 99% sure are innocent. so by saying "hey i looked at toml and he's town", he's instantly got toml on side and toml is one of the best debaters in the game if wfd and gaspy need backup somewhere down the line

The biggest problem you have here is this: If WFD isn't actually the cop, who is?

If Gaspy is mafia, I doubt WFD is also mafia. Much more likely WFD's investigation got busdriven.

Because if Bif IS town thats a hell of a loving blow. I mean maybe they're both scum but something tells me otherwise.

Beet I have a tonne of reasons for thinking he's town, a lot of whats happened lines up with metadata as well as what I know of him as a person, as well as what's been happening in each day AS WELL AS etc etc. It's not "good mafia" but unless Beet has tightened his scum game dramatically in what, 1 day, he's probably town.
