The Great Twist
You got me. As scum I was in a cushy position all game and all I had to do was see which town member the wind was blowing to in mylo and instead I decided to throw away my entire advantage by not only revealing the existence of a poisoner, but also fabricate a whole series of events that led back to Day 1 and put all eyes on me because ??? profit. That's way more likely than "I should reveal everything I know because it doesn't do me any good to bring it to my death."

Win? You think the game is over after one lynch? It's mylo with two scum. Only scum will guarantee win with a single lynch at this point.

My vote is on imgay, boss.

How did you SOMEHOW miss the roleblocker comment? Because you already knew there was a roleblocker and it didn't phase you on first read? The slip, the tunneling in mylo...

Still though, I'm good with a no-lynch to extend the game as much as possible. I just want these little slips to be clear when I've been cleared via flip.

You're OK no-lynching in mylo because it'll make it much easier for you and your scumbuddy to seize the win in lylo.

It really comes down to either risking it all in mylo or risking it all in lylo. I think Town has a better chance in the latter because we can get some more ability usage off. We have two people who haven't claimed anything and one or two doctor types.

I was actually thinking about it this morning. I think two different types of Doctors can work in a small game. Imagine one of the Mafia is a non-traditional poisoner and instead of being x-shot, he just poisons instead of Mafia kills. The Doctor can't protect against it but the Poison Doctor can. Vice versa if they have someone else, say the Vanilla Mafia that flipped, doing the kills instead of the poisoner. I don't think it's that far-fetch'd as opposed to the "Mafia always do poison" that I've been assuming for a couple game days now. This would explain a little of the imbalance I'm seeing in the flips and reveals.

Town
-Bulletproof
-Multi Vig (One use day, one use night)
-Tracker
-Miller
-Bullet Doctor
-Poison Doctor
-Vanilla
-Vanilla
-Vanilla

Mafia
-Vanilla
-Poisoner
-Roleblocker(?)

Neutral Survivor(?)

It would lead to an interesting choice for the Mafia to either poison or kill and then they can switch over to the other kill type if they knock out a doctor. Or maybe a poisoner or vanilla get knocked out early and they are forced to kill a single way and one of the Doctors becomes useless... except as a vig disruptor, hence the multi vig to take advantage of that.

We're just seeing a huge difference in strength between the two sides and that's my best guess. But I guess that's setup speculation and setup speculation is bad especially if town is trying to be an informed majority. :rolleyes:

As for imgay, I don't know what to make of the Survivor claim really. If it's true I'm making a mistake but I think I'd go with my instinct rather than go by his word since there's no way to test it without another tracker. It's not like a neutral would counter-claim at this point because it wouldn't do them any good to be nightkilled or lynched especially if their win condition is anti-town (PLEASE OH PLEASE LET IT BE AN ARSONIST, that'd be cool)

Epsilon Plus is actually probably the better target for all the reasons stated in my past few posts (##vote Epsilon Plus) and I think when we're in mylo full claiming from him (as well as the others who haven't) is the way to go so we can make the best use of everyone puzzling out everyone's claims against their own knowledge from their ability usages.

Lipstick Apathy
I have been asking questions and people are ignoring them (or they are getting lost in the fray). Epsilon. You threw suspicion at Met because he breadcrumbed his role -- why?

Hal, why was/am I your top scum pick?

I'm not convinced by Met's "confession" being damning -- the last time I thought a meltdown was flailing scum, it was frustrated townie instead, and we lost the game.

Hal Incandenza posted:

I am still going to go over post histories because that's still what matters, but even if you believe Met's claim that doesn't clear him as town. Also survivor with no other powers is pretty rough in a game with as many kills as we seem to have here so imgay's claim is very suspect to me.

I agree with both of these points.

Birdstrike posted:

the :10bux: question: who is the roleblocker?

Can anyone else confirm being roleblocked? I've only seen it mentioned by you. Scum might have a JOAT instead of a roleblocker, maybe?

No one else has claimed your night vig, and your day vig was out in public, and I can't believe the scum team would get that many extra killing powers, so you're either town or SK, and I doubt we have a survivor and and SK, so you're my strongest town read right now.

Epsilon Plus posted:

You are incredibly defensive for someone with one vote on him.

I don't like this post because this is mylo, and everyone knows that. Throwing votes around is dangerous right now. Two votes on the wrong person will let scum hop on and end the day, and Epsilon is acting like being upset at one vote is somehow outlandish.

Hang on. If we're right about 2 scum 3 town 1 survivor, then why does no-lynching end the game? Someone dies overnight and we start with 5, 2 scum 2 town 1 survivor -- does that mean town automatically loses? Survivor and town could still lynch one of the scum, couldn't they?

imgay posted:

You could be very ballsy scum, declaring yourself 3p and thus too dangerous to lynch.

Breadcrumbing is a no-effort way for scum to say "no, see, I didn't just make up this claim - I said I was a doctor day 1!" I think it's crappy play whether you're telling the truth or not.

Your last two statements will be covered by this: I wanted you to claim first because I don't know if you're scum or not and I wouldn't want scum to try to counterclaim me! I'm a rolecop. Hiipfire got a doublevig result for Birdstrike N1 and didn't investigate N2 (I didn't get to make an investigation N2 because I started on D3 - that's why I was so salty about Hiipfire earlier). Met showed up as a poisoner for my N3 investigation. That's why I crawled up his rear end so suddenly.
