You're good. I must've misread that. What I said means that though you are not behaving in a scummy way I could read posts that seem to indicate you were linked to scum since they were either defending you or you doing the same for them (turns out that's not the case). Doesn't really matter because I wouldn't have voted you that day nor would I vote you today. You're way too sincere in your posting to be scum I find.

Out of zzyzx and wins, I think wins is scummier. On D1 he mentions Walrus, in this post. He seems to be critical of Walrus, but he never mentions him again, never votes him (and has no vote down at day end). wins32767 posted:This vote is lazy reasoning. My vote was gut. There is a difference. Then on D2 he comes into the thread and tries to make himself look good for the Walrus lynch. wins32767 posted:I can buy that level of skill from merk. Walrus twigged my gut a bit too, but it was just a hunch. A lot of his posts dont express opinions on players or contribute to scum hunting, examples wins32767 posted:I like the effort here, but I don't like the reasoning. It doesn't tell a cohesive story of why Quid is scum, it's listing some stuff Quid did viewed through a suspicious lens. wins32767 posted:How is that different from normal zzyzx play? And his case on Punt could apply to himself. wins32767 posted:So, my current thinking is that there are 3 killing roles so I'd wager the scum team is probably pretty small at this point. With two of their members already dead, they're likely to be really demoralized and lurking or frustrated. Based on punt's posts today, he's a pretty good candidate using those criteria. ##vote wins

Quinquereme posted:Oh man I'm bad at logic puzzles. It took me a good 15 mins to work out why this makes sense. That the mason group is a glorified dethy is still an assumption, but looking at a mason group that claims 5 cops, that is the very first thing that I jump to, especially given some of the results. I imagine it's something that wouldn't have come out as fast since cops in the mason group would have been a little shy about revealing that they are cops, much less who they investigate. We could pick one of the cop groups instead, but if we take gamer's claim as truth (I believe it given the push on him day 1) that narrows the result group down to 2 players there, which is better to pick from than a group of 3, and will also help possibly narrow down the cop group. It's possible WWM is actually the one lying but but given their results, they aren't the insane cop and it looks like whomever the insane cop is nailed scum in their night 1 investigation, so I think it's better to put the vote there today. I would also vote wins if people are more comfortable with that today. I had found him kinda town for backing off me day 1 and just calling my play stubborn town. That didn't seem like something scum would have done in that situation, but it's possible they had decided to move on to gamer at that point as well. I would also be wary of people and how they approach all this, because it would be very, very easy to hide behind figuring this out since the results of it are based on logic and deduction (like what I've done so far!)

FV, have you been more active in the mason doc? I know you had stuff going on but the fact that you have a grand total of zero helpful posts day 1 makes me really uncomfortable reading your opinions.

Looking at zzyzx he put a vote down on Walrus when he could have voted Gamer instead. Given QPQ's posting around Gamer (and his now confirmed town claim) I think a scum player in this situation would be far more likely to vote Gamer.

This is going back to Punt's flip and something Gamer said last real life night: Usually in a dethy scenario you will not find out what kind of cop someone is when they flip, so I would not take punt flipping as just a cop as indicative as sane as gospel. This is, again, all assuming Ecco did a direct copy of a dethy game into the setup and hasn't changed anything about it. I think that is the case though because it's not something that would have been discovered quite so early in most cases.

Gave it some thought, ##vote wins You've lacked any sort of effort at all this game and have been coasting along without offering any sort of opinion on who you think is even scummy. And what prompted you to rolefish in Amoeba? Not defending Amoeba here, she also hasn't had a decent case all game, but she's at least been active and asking questions.

While I hate to interrupt dethy chat, Max you just zoomed on by this post and didn't drop an answer off so I'd like this to at least be acknowledgedchaoslord posted:To make sure I'm not missing anything, your case on Quidnose is QPQ's light defense of him in response to Quinquereme's vote and then Quidnose failing to read the flips right, correct? While I think the former is a (possible) point, I don't think misreading flips is a scumtell. Or, if it is, it's a strange one because Quidnose didn't have to make it public that he missed it.

Quinquereme posted:Excuse my ignorance again - is it extremely unlikely for two scum to claim this together? Everyone has accepted this claim as real but I don't really know why two scum couldn't be doing this together? It's possible but "extremely unlikely" describes it exactly. Especially in a game with multiple nightkills and with scum down people. If one of them were to flip something other than confirmed town mason, we know the other is telling a lie and that sinks them, too. It's a brave play if they're not telling the truth. With how hard QPQ was pushing gamer I think it's clear gamer is town and I don't see why town would lie about being in a confirmed masonry.

I'm worried about people just hiding behind logic, too. Could you elaborate on why you went with zzyxx? You say that you are wary of folks who are just hiding behind the "logic" aspect, but you never explain your vote past "more likely". Spoonsy, what about you? Would you like to back up your vote with anything other than logic? Gamer and Nth, yall did the same thing so if yall want to add more to your vote feel free, but I'm less interested since I believe the confirmed mason claim

Someone (likely WWM since they called me out or Max since I'm posting at him) will probably come through and ask who I think is scum between zzyzx and wins and the answer is "I don't have a strong thought." Got a slight gut read but I need to investigate it more. Personally, I'd still rather vote Spoonsy, but accepting that this looks, smells, and quacks like a dethy, I need to take a read of their posts in context rather than just the post history. I've got to get around for church now though so I'll be in and out on the phone til mid-afternoon. Oh, also, still interested in why wins was asking about Amoeba.

merk posted:
Here's how I would work through the puzzle, assuming it was a dethy setup: FV is not insane or paranoid; merk is not naive; Spoonsy is not paranoid; Punt is not paranoid; WWM is not insane or paranoid. merk is paranoid. If I believe gamer and believe that Spoonsy's result is correct (and I do), Punt has to be insane, and wins must be scum. Disregarding FV's result: merk must be paranoid, spoonsy and WWM must be sane/naive, punt must be insane. Disregarding merk's result: Doesn't work without an additional scum in the five*. Disregarding Spoonsy's result: merk is paranoid, FV and WWM are sane/naive, Punt is insane. Punt is town. Disregarding WWM's result, merk is paranoid, FV and Spoonsy are sane/naive, Punt is insane. I'm working with an additional assumption from y'all, which is that I'm town; but if I make that assumption, and assume that Gamer is town, wins has to be scum. In the event that I flip, this should all still be useful for the following day. The fundamental problem, though, is that there's no guarantee that it's a dethy setup. Nobody runs dethy setups because nobody likes them; there could be two naive cops and two paranoid cops and one scum. There could be multiple scum in the bunch, if Quid's flips indicates a recruiting cult (the * above). There could be roles that are investigation immune, or roles that screw with night actions. There could be a dozen different reasons the logic table doesn't hold.

Honestly I'd still rather vote Spoonsy for scummy behavior and leave cop speculation for later when there are more night actions.

Punt died. He flipped vanilla cop. QED, it isn't wins as he got a townie result. I claimed townie and I'd like to say I've proven myself, as said. So in an argument of "scum has to be Wins, Gamer or Zz" then Wins and I are town, so-ooo.

For the sake of argument, assume that punt's flip confirms him as a sane cop, and assume a dethy.merk posted:
Punt is sane, merk is paranoid, and if/once I flip town, neither FV nor WWM can be insane. Spoonsy must be insane, and gamer and Nth must both be lying scum. If I thought this were the case, I'd encourage you all to lynch me immediately.

You're not paying attention. If it's a regular dethy, I think Punt has to be insane and wins has to be scum; but there are lots of reasons that it might not be a simple logic puzzle, and so it makes more sense to wait on that and vote for the person I think has been scummier (Spoonsy). You don't just throw up your hands and stop playing because somebody roleclaims. Gamer responds that punt's flip proves Punt is a sane cop, but probably not. One, that's not the way it usually works; and two, Punt can't be the sane cop, in a standard dethy, without both of you being scum.

It really doesn't prove he's the sane cop at all, correct.

Assuming that this is a standard dethy is dangerous. If we get more flips and investigation results that lead us down that path, great, but there's a lot of leaping going on here with only one night of investigation results.

Zzy's logic assumes he's town, which naturally he would argue. It's a pretty light scare tactic. "WELL. WHEN I FLIP TOWN THAT MEANS YOU MUST BE THE SCUM, SO HA!"

It's more like no willing to play to someone elses standards. Would you have said it was reluctance if Squiggly wasn't badgering me? My posting should have made it clear enough I was committed. Why vote when there is no urgency? My arguments are what would be pushing the execution, not a single vote. You're thinking of it backwards - pushing an execution is all about using reasoning to convince others not the placing of a vote.
