Flavorfishing and an attempted chainlynch on two known town members with a bonus thunderdome.

Everybody else has made the effort case I wanted to make, but I wanted to point out something here:

TT was janitored, i.e, no cardflip, no role, no alignment.

So, the only people who would know TT's alignment are scum and self-aligned people, in which case, they can happily say "Oh, he was town" because nobody else can confirm it otherwise and TT's actual alignment doesn't mean anything to them.

Hope this helps!

Think I am i the same boat, might be a play to slow the votes or showing his role to stop a mislynch but voting for your self before seems strange unless he has really just given in.

If I don't get a satisfactory answer as to what role flavour PM is I will vote for him.

It could very easily be a last ditch ploy. Who's to say the game even has and Arthur?

I feel like if anybody should know who Arthur is, it's me. I'm the Lady in the Lake.

Unless by last ditch ploy you meant my claim, not the Arthur flavorclaim (which is still a bold move if he's not scum).

I hadn't counted up the votes and I thought I was getting close. Definitely feels like I'm on my way out regardless, but I want to arm town with everything I can.

I'm happy with my vote on Pmachine.
Though I don't like town giving up in the fashion he has.

While there is time in the day, take a look at the votes that occurred today for myself, aside from Pmachine. They felt super lazy.

Good luck Knights.

You're missing the point.

Nobody knows TT's alignment because he was janitored. Hell, in most games, even the scum don't get that information when they janitor someone. It's part of the trade-off between "deny town valuable information" and "gain information from a cardflip".

Arbitrarily declaring that TT was town is a slip because, barring an investigation, there's no way for PMach to know TT's alignment as town. Scum know who their scumbuddies are, which means they can confidently say someone is town: The someone isn't on their scum team, and if the someone is third-party, they're not going to go "AHA, HE'S TOTALLY LYING, I'M ACTUALLY THIRD PARTY, GOTCHA SCUMBO" because then the someone gets a bigger target on them.

Does that make more sense?

MEDS, that's a good point and a decent reason to vote for me. It honestly came down to laziness on my part. It wasn't a scumslip, though.

Like I said in my post, my heart just kind of isn't in this. I'd replace out, but I feel like it would unfairly drat whoever took my place. At least a flip tells you I was town.

Sorry I should have been clearer I did mean you, but I do wonder why Infi felt the need to role claim when he was not in any danger.

Lady of the lake, very Authrian but not in the film other then a mention. But we do have claims just as strange like Kush and the swallows. Cant think of anyone who would be a good fit for doctor/protection, maybe robin or his minstrels so lady of the lake fits as well as any other.

'Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.'

So I think your fate is with the masses.

I mean if PM is not just saying "whatever lynch me," he's saying "whatever lynch me because my heart is not really in this anyway and I don't want to play." The former sounds like something he might say if he were trying to stop the bandwagon; the latter is more plausible and a reasonable explanation for a self-lynch vote. Ugh I JUST DON'T KNOW. :bahgawd:

I've already claimed Lady of the Lake, a doctor. This puts town in an odd spot because if I don't get lynched today, scum would have a decent reason not to nightkill the goddamn doctor as there's a great case against me that they can continue to push in future days. If there's a chance we can nail scum instead, we should. If momentum against me gets going again, I'll hammer myself.
