Max posted:This game has also been kinda frustrating for me, because I think I've picked up on a lot of people hanging around and watching but actively not participating. That usually screams scum at me, but it turns out there are a million loving mason docs or something where people are chatting with each other, and not actually posting in this thread. I doubt there's any more. People being sideshow spectators like WWM who's just defensive posting mostly are still scummy weirdos.

Look, I'm just going to say it because I can see things going in that direction: Hal is also a Clarent recruit, so he's not part of the scum team. I don't know when he was recruited. Honestly, thinking about it, I want to go for Amoeba today. It's weird to be bulletproof and not know it, and honestly I don't believe that. Likely responsible for the beast kills. ##vote Amoeba

Max posted:Also, as a final note, I was recruited into the Clarent group last night. I'm not super happy about having my alignment change mid-game since I was perfectly happy with what I had (VT) but them's the breaks The win condition has remained the same, but from what I can understand, it comes with an additional condition that one of the original members of the group must be alive by the end of the game in order for us to win now, so it's a weird masonry-survivor group that only wins with the town. Honestly, the message I got wasn't super clear. This makes sense. In one my previous recent game there were a couple of scum teams and couple of town teams. Also, the idea of a SK being Amoeba makes enough sense considering I've seen other players who've been outed with strange roles react in such a way. I had to go to work so I'm going to keep re-reading! I may have to stop to make and eat dinner but I'll get through it all before going to sleep and will stick around for a q&a session.

It was The Misery of Madriu. I was part of the 'official' scum team versus the official town team. There were then another town team with a recruiting mechanic that we (as scum) let get out of hand and it lost us the game. We also pretty much decimated our Scum B team not knowing they were hunting the recruiters; it made us seem more town each time we caught scum. No team knew of the others' existence. So yeah this stuff isn't unheard for Ecco.

In France AD 42(?) I was both on the official Scum team and was secretly part of another scum-survivor team, and both teams mutually won at the end, so yes, I am in agreement that this is not an unheard of thing for Ecco to have multiple town/scum teams.

I'm a complete idiot. For some reason when WW flipped, I had read it as mafia aligned godfather. The possibility of a godfather still being around on the scum team makes all that dethy stuff a lot more difficult to parse.

Max posted:FV, what was your theory on Wins yesterday? I'm interested in your thoughts since there isn't much here in the thread that you've shared. Chaoslord too, I suppose. If you're asking "Would I have voted wins?", yeah, I would have. F_V's case and WWM's post about wins being the right move for the day had me sold. Doubly so when the only thoughts about zzyzx were gut reads. I would have preferred to wait for wins to come back but that didn't end up happening. If that's not what you were asking, then try asking again, ha.

Max posted:We have a nightkill that looks and smells like a werewolf and now we have a player that is bulletproof but they don't know it with apparently a strange result from a role-cop (I am not happy wins did in fact have a result but didn't come back to explain it, but maybe something came up in his life or something.) I don't think it would be a stretch to think that Amoeba is the one responsible for the werewolf-looking kill. I don't know how much I believe their claim that they didn't know about being bulletproof, but whatever. Oh, also, I don't think Amoeba is the werewolf. Granted, it's speculation on my part, but I think there's a much better explanation around. (Quote this post and laugh at me when I'm wrong)

Honestly, I don't even know what to make about the Clarent aligned thing but I feel like it's going to end up being just another big distraction for me. I'm getting way too tripped up on all these extra speculations so I'm gonna go back to what I feel is right outside of those things ##vote Spoonsy Looks like Amoeba's pinging a lot of people, re:secret abilities, which is strange as hell, but I don't remember anything outside of that. I'll reread them when I have more time.

My better explanation for "Amoeba doesn't know about their powers" is that Amoeba is just lying about that part. Serial killer being bulletproof fits though.

I don't think we're being lied to, and sending the kill to Amoeba while also having Wins role cop them doesn't make sense.

For whoever asked earlier, my theory was that wins was a scum tracker and saw Amoeba performing a kill. As a role cop instead Amoeba could still easily be a SK. I'm not convinced by Amoeba claiming to not know what his powers were. It seems fairly obvious to me that wins learnt something about his role. Why would a rolecop be told more than the player themselves about their role? Additionally, if Amoeba was the one performing the fireball kills, he would know that his action failed N2 and could claim it was targeted at him instead.

My better explanation for "Amoeba doesn't know about their powers" is that Amoeba is just lying about that part. Serial killer being bulletproof fits though. No. Admittedly, it is flavor speculation, but if there is one mod that makes games that I'm comfortable to flavor speculate for it's Ecco. I have a specific alternate candidate in mind for it and they are town. That said, fiery_valkyrie posted:As a role cop instead Amoeba could still easily be a SK.

fiery_valkyrie posted:Additionally, if Amoeba was the one performing the fireball kills, he would know that his action failed N2 and could claim it was targeted at him instead. I have to disagree. Amoeba used specific words that Nth did too when his action failed ("locked door" etc) which leads me to believe it was a jailor of some sort or a recruit attempt or something like that. Ecco might have counted it as triggering the bullet proof reveal just to be nice. I don't think he's the fire killah. I also think the firekiller was a two shot, as there hasn't been any since.

I don't really think he's some flavor of serial killer either cuz why would he announce he's bullet proof? That seems townie to me.

I'm going to go to the Wet Hot American Summer NYC premiere and in all likelihood a hammer is going to occur while I'm there. So with that in mind, ##vote Amoeba. Wins saw something. Otherwise he wouldn't have outright asked for a claim, which we still haven't received, when he did. He flipped town-aligned. I want to see what he saw.

From what I know, no one tried to recruit Amoeba. Reminder that the role cop investigated Amoeba that night, so they wouldn't risk a recruitment at the same time.
