I won't be here for deadline, unfortunately.

The last scum is almost definitely somewhere in AA, flerp, and MMT - they're the 3 people left whose actions or role can't be verified in thread, as far as I can tell. (I am phone posting, but I believe this is accurate - I was working this out earlier. Please correct me if we were able to verify any of their night actions)

(If Cpig flips scum & has a role, both of which I expect to happen, that makes SSV's spymaster claim more solid, IMO.)

Of those I find MMT most town based on posting patterns.

Did we ever figure out a fourth action?

We have a redirect, and 2 NKs, spymaster is excluded. So what would the fourth action be? At this point, it doesn't seem like anyone has any shine left. I suppose it could be an undisclosed scum move, but I can't imagine what or who it would be used on.

Additionally, it just seems like a convenient claim to make when you can get the information from Podima's posts and no one can really attest to it.

Flying Leatherman posted:

If I'm right about SSV, then I think Cpig makes sense as scum. If he inherited a role sometime in the past and used it the same night SSV used Spymaster thing, that accounts for the missing action. My guess right now is that he got tpink's rolecop back on day 3. Nobody claimed inheriting that one, none of the backups that have flipped took it, and it seems like way too appetizing of a role to just leave on the table.

Quoting this because it's a great point that I initially missed while skimming to catch up today

Yet another North Sider dealt with. Good for you. But unfortunately, the corpse you find this morning was not the one you would have liked to see.

quote:

Her lips were warm and soft, as she leaned into Finley's kiss while he backed with her towards the bed. It had been a chance meeting at the bar - she looked lonely with her cute little drink, like she was waiting for something or someone. Of course that someone should be Finley, and he was more than ready to play the part.

Offer the dame another drink, and then a third one with a little extra something slipped in to make her feel real nice. Then act all gentlemanly and offer to call the lady a cab. Then hey, you're both already outside, and the she's feeling a bit peaky. May as well invite her home for a bit of Tee Ell Cee, like a proper fella. Ain't nothing to it - just hop on in and give the cabbie your address, she's too far gone to make much fuss. Then well, one thing leads to another, you know how it is. Works every time.

Or at least it did, until she pulled a snub pistol out from under her skirt and shot him in the chest. His jaw went slack as he crumpled back onto the bed, his blood already staining the dingy sheets crimson. Her eyes were suddenly clear and bright, as if she had never been drugged.

"Sorry, hon. The Shine said you were dangerous, so I had to kill you. Simple as that." A sweet smile crossed Annabella's lips as she watched the man die.

I'm fine being lynched this game. Don't have anything to lose and I'm not scum so my death might be useful albeit wasted.

Anomalous Amalgam posted:

I don't see any reason to not post this and I can't say much else until tonight busy work day filled with problems.

Anyhow I'm. Outfit aligned cop. I tried to crumb this with the rolling stop post, syop sign rolling stop gets you a fine. Then I made that law and order fake post.

I am out of a shine and wasted my cop on flying leatherman because I thought they came in pretty suspect, but they're just a lurker who is also outfit-aligned.

AA opened the game with "I'm willing to die" and then later claimed cop. I still don't think a town cop would have done that. I've cased him for that earlier in the game and don't feel the need to rehash it. Once I realized that we could have duplicate roles, I went back to thinking AA was town.

But when I go back to the me vs. Jimson vote, AA tried to throw him a bone:

Anomalous Amalgam posted:

Went back to check over the notebook, and his content in general, and what's there seems genuine. He was vocal and around for the lynching of two non-outfit when if he was scum, it would make sense for him to not do this very thing.

I think MMT is the scum.

##vote MMT

---

All I know is, you spent two game days voting for me. A claimed, Vanilla, Shine Cop when actual scum were getting voted out.

You can case all you want, but your conviction was elsewhere.

When it came down to me vs. Jimson, AA felt that Jimson's posts were more genuine (?) and that I was suspicious for casing a claimed cop. This is all despite the fact that he himself claimed to be (a) out of shine and (b) ok with dying. If you look at AA's lumpen lists that led into that vote here and here, he had Jimson listed as scummier than me. What changed?

Now that we're closer to endgame I feel like there's a good chance that AA is the last scum. In a game where either alignment can claim any role, I think there's an obvious motivation to a scum player taking Cop and clearing someone as it builds up town cred.

At this point I'm going to look over everyone and I think people need to do the same before anyone votes (probably not posting much more tonight since it takes me a little while to do rereads at this point and it's Saturday night). Right now I have AA / SSV / flerp all down as potentially suspicious. I will say that the only way FL is scum would be if AA/FL are scumbos so unless something crazy happens I'd consider him confirmed town.

The way it worked was: there were three factions each with a boss when this game started. I didn't know who the bosses were, only that they would give me a list of targets that I HAD to pick a target to assassinate from. Note that I do not need shine to kill my targets. I was, at that point, a serial killer with some extra mechanics tacked on.

N1 list was dongs, Inf, Inf humorously enough. N2 it didn't matter because I got the last boss, CCat, lynched (go back and read that part).

As soon as only one boss survived, I would automatically join them in a masonry (no scum doc for me). If scum, I lose my personal kill but Inf and I would have a join RB ability. If 3p, we would have become a second, two man scum team (it explicitly said two man scum team). If town, I would join the town boss in a CONFIRMED masonry and essentially become an unlimited town vig. If somehow all the bosses died, I would become a standard SK.

I can do marvelous other things as well with shine, that I would rather not go into, only put in a request for some more tonight.

he also says later that he got mixed up and realized that infinitum was the 3p boss and cat was the scum boss

why would scum win? 6 people alive, if youre a mislynch we go down to 4 with the scum kill and then its 3 to lynch. if there's two scum obv we lose, but i sincerely do not believe that the scum team had 6 on them. maybe there's a 3p around, but with most of the nights having two kills besides for reckless vigs, im inclined to believe that if there is a 3p, then its prob a survivor or someting.

I think there's one scum left, and I think it's AA. Surviving this long aa a cop, even one out of shine, baffles me. I also don't see how a mislynch right now means the scum win.

Alternatively, it is weird that Cpig had information about USB role. Either he had a fake claim (maybe weird since brewer was also a town role?) or there is a backup on his team where he got the role info. SSV would be someone I would look at then as the only known remaining USB, although it's worth keeping in mind that neither MMT or flerp have confirmable night actions (iirc).

I will reread AA first, as he is at the top of my list right now and the claims of "if you lynch me the scum win" are awfully overblown.

I think that we only have one scum left, though.

flerp because of their reactions to any kind of pressure at all. It's overly dramatic, and seemed like artificial anger when there was nothing to "flip out" about, so to speak.

MMT because its an unverifiable claim. I get that no one can say for sure about mine either, but it's incredibly convenient. Also if either one of her or Jimson flipped scum that day, we'd have given the other a pass. It seems to me like its not improbable that they'd distance themselves from one another, and establishing the contradicting claims like 5 minutes apart seems like a smart gambit to try and get town on one of their sides. Like I know Jimson does silly things, but that would have been intentional sabotage.

I think they gamed the town, if it's truly not flerp.

FL I copped and unless there's still a godfather in this game, and it's him, then he's town.

If we truly aren't at MYLO, then I'm fine dying today to prove my reads as genuine. At first I was reluctant and adamantly believed this would be it, but yeah.

I will say that the only way FL is scum would be if AA/FL are scumbos so unless something crazy happens I'd consider him confirmed town.

i actually disagree with this case. this reminded me a bit of how AA reacted to the quid/TQ situation way earlier in the game, where he was doubting everything. cpig did the same thing, but accepted it a lot quicker, while AA hammered it harder. i had a town read on aa when he did that because scum would accept it much easier then town when everyone else is accepting it in order to be safe, but town would be more willing to go against the grain because they dont have a lot of information and are more likely to doubt players.

so, likewise, when everyone was hitting jimson, aa goes against the grain and hits you, or at least, puts doubt on you. now, i can see the idea that aa is possibly trying to divert the lynch onto you to save a scumbo, but pretty much everyone knew that jimson would be lynched. it was a long time coming and im sure almost everyone entertained the idea that jimson was scum at one point in this game while very few were willing to put you into a scum category at all. scum aa, esp one that has quite a bit of suspicision on him p much this entire game, would want to be on an early jimson vote as he would be aware that jimson would flip scum. to me, aa's suspicision shows exactly what defines a townie - a lack of information. if he knew that jimson would flip scum i think aa wouldve voted for him earlier. similarly, i think this thought about a possible mmt/jimson gambit also comes from a townie position.
