I am not scum, in fact I am a town bus driver

Night 1 night I switched WMB with Razor
Night 2 I switched TBK with Bifauxnen

I thought TOML was scum because WMB was someone's intended target on night one, and WMB mentioned that TOML hates him, and then his random WMB vote yesterday kinda sealed him as anti-town for me.

IDK if there's any significance to TBK being targeted (maybe it was a vig or sk action, or maybe bif targeted TBK with her doodad)

In hindsight, Gough's certainty when it comes to Asphyxious makes me think that he got a scum result in an investigation

If what you say is true :

On one hand I want to congratulate you for getting Bif, on the other hand I am suspicious of you coming out and claiming today when you've arguably been somewhat effective (bif) and could have served town better remaining hidden.

for pretty much the same reasons Kommando listed.

I'm not so sure about Kleedrac, although the time difference does make things difficult. I'm also now suspicious of Tirade, who, despite having a bit of an argument with Gaspy early yesterday, has otherwise been following a similar pattern. And the argument could have been done for the sake of image.

Mithranderp, Thatbastardken and Asphyxious I level the accusation against you that you are scum.

Asphyxious, Gough Suppressant was certain on your guilt, unambiguously calling you scum. You deliberately work against the town and excuse your efforts as a personal protection measure that is supposed to trick the mafia into revealing themselves but just confuses the vote. you rolled on TOML eagerly without basis.

I dont feel you have much of a case for your innocence.

Yeah I dunno what to tell you, I'm not scum. I'm a town gunsmith who's been blocked BOTH nights. First night Beet, got back unsuccessful, second night WMB, unsuccessful.

But yeah honestly I've been fingered by a cop so it'd be more weird not to lynch me.

I will offer that if I was scum I'd have worked out Gough was a cop instead of just being an rear end in a top hat and what I certainly wouldn't have done is spend most of last night saying how I thought the scum godfather was being scummy. Like I'm not a team player but I wouldn't deliberately gently caress over my scum team on the way out.

Honestly I'm not sure how it works in this game because as I said, I've been blocked both nights, but the idea is you target a player and find out whether they have the ability to night kill. "Do they have a gun: yes/no"

It's pretty useless. Like it'll tell you if someone is a scum OR serial killer OR vigilante but won't tell you which is the case. So say I targeted Beet and it came up "has a gun", it'd still be possible he was a vig, etc.

I thought here you said you tried to kill me then I saw your post on what it does. That actually sounds kind of useful considering that vig was dead, it's a high chance that anyone you got a positive on was either a serial killer or scum. How is that not useful?

Both of these don't make a lot sense, how would you have worked out Gough was a cop?

Also you hardly threw bif under a bus, you pointed suspicion at her when there was no real drive, and there was no real momentum. It's a great role (the godfather) to put out there to attract an investigation for obvious reasons.

I guess the advantage of gunsmith is that you'd know if they can kill regardless of whether they have.

Sure, I thought WMB was a bit scummy on night one, and wanted to protect razor, so switched them. Unfortunately for me WMB was the real target.

I switched bif with tbk because I thought if she's town and has a doodad and tries to use it,it'll protect her from role blocks. And if she was scum she probably wouldnt use it unless it was an offensive weapon.

Tbh I thought she was town and found tbk scumny, so I switched them. I was just lucky this time.
