MMM's scumflip basically confirmed JakeP/Met as town to me because of how MMM had been pushing the Scum Miller angle, and so I figured scum would go for him last night. As it turns out, I was right, too.

I copped Gulag because he had been tunneling on me all of day 1 and I wanted to know if his role provided any clues as to why.

I mostly tracked Foo for this post here:

My case, which was solid and led to dunking a scum, was "not a good argument at all"? He was also voting me at EoD. Taken together, it looked like he was trying to divert the dunk away from his scumbuddy and kill the confirmed doctor instead. Despite my lack of result, I'm going to ##vote Captain Foo


Hmmm, ok, that makes sense I guess. I hadn't really associated you with being the reason we did MMM, but I can see why you feel you were. Even on rereading I feel like Ghastly and Roy were the real reason it happened. I'd say all three of you look pretty good for it.

EXAKT Science posted:

Really? Based on? Even on rereading myself I'm not seeing it. It is pretty obvious I wasn't on his scum team because there is no way I would have been the hammer. If I hadn't hammered at literally the last moment, it wouldn't have happened. It would have been a no cuddle. I was torn on whether or not to even do it because I really didn't think he was scum. If I was on his team, I would have held to that as my reason for not hammering so that he could use his PGO powers. It would have been a bloodbath.

Theoretically someone was actually supposed to get that info. At this point I have to assume it is someone who hasn't shared. So we'll see.

Also, the person that made the kill is probably one of those who hasn't shared.

So night actions so far:

AC visited Omega and confirms the above. No second action?
Roy visited KB and saw KB visit Roy and Zet.
KB visited Zet and saw him visit GG and KB.
KB visited Roy and confirmed he is vanilla(only rolecop/tracker)
GG visited Zet and saw him visit GG and KB
GG visited Roy and saw him visited by KB and Carpet
Zet visits KB and GG and confirms their stories
Exakt got RB'd
Gulag RB'd Exakt
Gulag visited AC and confirms AC's visit of Omega and AC's vanilla role.

Unless we are all on a scum team together, it is pretty clear Zet and me and GG were not responsible for last night's kill. I'd say Omega and Exakt are pretty clear from the above too.

Well, I think the game description rules that out in part:

jon joe posted:

This game's roles are specifically designed to upset your assumptions of your results, however. Do not put too much stock in your Rolecop or Tracker results as they apply to standard mafia logic. However, I will state that you will never receive an erroneous result on either; no insanity, undisclosed bus-drives, or visits that don't do what they say they do. The rolecop and tracker can, but not must, be used with your other role powers, if any, without issue. Including on the same or different players.

I mean, I suppose there could be a ninja? But wouldn't all their actions be hidden then? Which would again, rule the above people out? Not to mention the rolecopping would reveal that role?

Scum has incentive to wait as they can cater their report to fit the narrative they want to create, one that fits the stories of other people.

But the Holiday also has an impact on non reporters.

And imagine how many town would potentially have died to PGO if we didn't get him out on the first go. It could have been balanced with that in mind. I mean, it was potentially possible for scum to win on N1.

With this in mind, I think I am most interested in seeing what PinMom has to say. They have hardly said anything this entire game. They posted an early vote for EXAKT and that is really about it. Honestly the same goes for Carpet and Foo. I'm hardly in a position to meta-game anybody, but I feel like Foo seemed a lot more helpful in the last game we played.

It seems a little weird that there might be 3 people in some sort of self contained bubble.

Lots to consider.
Need more input.

Your explanation about the PGO bit makes sense, but you did say you'd hammer MMM to avoid a no-lunch, but had no interest in voting him other than that. I could see you hammering him to keep up appearances, but your explanation does make me feel better about you. What made me more suspicious was the way you proposed Zetsu as an alternative and pushed him as an alternative to MMM up until a point that felt uncomfortably close to deadline.

Based on the rules as expressed, I'm pretty sure we could track to the kill unless there was a Ninja. If we can't, then it's gonna be hard to base this stuff on role information.

On a related note, I am inclined to believe Exakt is town after yesterday AND the information I got n1.

After the JakeP thing went south and he switch, you were the number one candidate to vote out. You suggested the push to Met, which would have spared you and MMM. When things continued to head your way, you used the doctor thing.

There is no way to prove or confirm this is true. In fact, nobody has even confirmed that you ARE a doctor yet. We have to take your word for it, where as we have confirmation of what most other people did.

That being said,
We have been told that the information we get isn't always going to be cut and dry. It is possible that there are people with roles/positions we assume are Town aligned, who are not. Having a "doc" role blocked the night he says he was going to protect the dude who got killed... it's convenient.

in what way is it convenient? him claiming to have protected the guy who died doesn't help or hinder him in any way.

I think exakt is taking a bit too much credit for MMM's death too but, again, this isn't something that makes him scum. it's a common thing to do, to overstate your own importance when you were on a scum lynch. i've done/thought it bunches of times.

Part of it is a gut thing. It just doesn't feel right.
The moment Exakt is role blocked, if he has doctoral powers of protection, he has the ability to claim that he intended to save ANYBODY within the game. The person he states he wanted to protect and save is JakeP, who died and flipped town.

So, Exakt can be telling us the truth that this is what he intended to do.
Or, he can lie and say it was what he intended to do. There is no way to make sure. I disagree that the claim can help him. While not overly, the claim that he attempted to save a non-confirmed member of town creates a pro-town narrative.

"I am the case on MMM" an attempt to portray a pro-town narrative (while exaggerated)
"I am the doctor" still technically not confirmed - saved himself from the D1 vote - building trust and a pro-town narrative
"if I could have, I would have said the dead town member" - part of the pro-town narrative.


Also, if Exakt goes out and identifies himself as doctor, wouldn't that have made them a priority target?

I dunno, it just feels wrong.

it's worth noting that Exakt's post saying he was roleblocked came after gulag was discovered as being a roleblocker. Also of note is Omega saying Exakt didn't go anywhere, and it seems Omega was confused this, hinting that Omega hadn't fully read the thread when that post was made.

there's not enough to say for certain that scum are involved in this, but it is worth poking at. Not everyone had checked in yet, either. But festivities happened so it's not really a pressing matter, yet.

also: Roy just made a good point. Why did a Day 1 self-proclaimed doctor not die? If there is indeed a ninja doing the NK, it would have been a perfect opportunity to pick him off.

but our roleblocker has confirmed they performed this action. So we can reasonable assume that Exakt was actually role blocked. And all Omega has shared thus far was that their results were useless.
