I was thinking there had to be a juggernaut with all the town protective roles.

So the juggernaut helps explain/counter the amount of protection.

Any idea if Jugg would be able to break out of a jail on themselves?

Like, would they even bother RB'ing asiina in this scenario? If not, where did the RB go?

I mean normally if I was going to mod a game no, but this does seem like an awful lot of town protective roles so maybe?

I know if I was on the scum team I would have made whoever the blocker was block TQ last night and I am frankly shocked that didn't happen.

Yeah, if Jugg didn't need to worry about getting jailed, I would have the RB do AA or TQ.

I mean, AA would be a good choice cause it would make him look bad that he's never had an action to claim.

But at least some of the people claiming horrible actions right now must be town, so maybe scum just have people making bad decisions too.

Did anyone claim to have been role blocked today? I'm guessing they did RB Asiina. Kash's PMs don't exactly give much info, they may have been thinking that Asiina's jail could block the juggernaut.

In terms of balance, I guess if it was 4 scum to start, and the others were like ninja, godfather and roleblocker that would probably balance things out.

Town getting the extra vote manipulation due to the slightly over scumm'd setup.

If so, the likely initial suspects for those other roles would still be Jedit and TM. And if game doesn't end after they both flipped scum, then have to look at like AA or Inf maybe, since neither of them has any kind of confirmed action yet.

That's what I was thinking.

So, my guess is still that TM is the roleblocker.

Sorry for not being around, was driving. They still have a roleblocker and a conventional killer.

If they're smart, they'll roleblock me because I can kill them.

No. No claimed RB, that's why I was assuming it went to Asiina. I'm just not sure if they needed to RB her if their jugg couldn't be jailed.

That's not a question we can answer though.

At this point either she was RB'd by the scum RBer, or the scum RBer didn't act, or the scum RBer doesn't exist(this scenario is extremely unlikely).

As for why I guarded infinitum, I didn't know they had a roleblocker. Unless BOTH infin and TM are scum, infin is actually a doc and reciprocal protection makes us immortal at night.

In terms of tomorrow's cuddle, I was leaning Jedit.

They are both probably scum, but Jedit has the added bit of supposedly not even using his action when we were potentially at end game. It doesn't make sense.

But willing to wait and see what, if anything, night actions tonight bring to the table.

Ohhh, right.

I thought infinitum would be their target because they'd want to break the protective loop.

Did we figure out how there was no kill given that Asiina jailed AA and glowku was the juggernaut? The juggernaut kill definitely should have gone through the jail if AA was the target.

The only thing I can think of is a redirector, but I thought we were all claimed and there's no way scum would redirect town to one of their kill targets, unless they're dumb as hell.

That's a really good point. The only reasons for lack of kill would be if Glowku wasn't the one doing the kill and AA/whoever Inf doc'd were the target, or AA was doing the kill. At least in a sane world.

There is another possibility. Scum lurking so bad they didn't submit the kill.

I've run games where I wanted to give scum meaningful choices, gave them like a ninja and a juggernaut but only one nightkill. I'm not ruling that possibility out.

Yeah, someone else can maybe come forward and prove the submission thing one way or the other. It should be pretty memorable if you were the person that Kash was waiting to submit an action there. If so, then yeah it's possible they were using someone elses ninja kill that night.

But Glowku's own post lends slight weight to the theory that scum may have not submitted:

Mayor Glowku posted:

N2 I was part of the reason it took so long, had a super busy weekend and the fact that I've kinda been super not posty due to phone issues I also forgot about the game. In the end I swapped Asiina and Tobbs which ended in nothing.

Like, we know he was lying about swapping asiina/tobbs. But the best lies have a grain of truth. Maybe he was supposed to submit the kill and he didn't, thus the super long night and no kill.

If the scum team is really Glowku/Tired/Jedit, then it serves them right for lurking and I will not feel at all bad about the victory.

If there are 4 of them, it narrows who the 4th could be based on attention to detail/lurking.

Rereading Jedit, I still think he's likely the scum roleblocker.

He really wanted to discredit Asiina, his rival for any blocking claims.

We have lots of powerful town flips.

I could see a juggernaut, ninja, roleblocker, and something else. I'd be surprised if there were less than 4.

Yeah, unlimited juggernaut is pretty powerful and single handedly counters all the protection, so I can almost see a scum team of just that, roleblocker and godfather(roleblocker serving as extra backup for jugg in case of early cuddle and/or proactively stopping the investigation roles), but I can also see throwing in a ninja if TQ is really town tracker and AA is really town watcher.

But again, if there are 4, and they failed to submit the kill, that makes the likely targets for the 4th scum very narrow. Like my scum team would never in a million years forget to submit a night kill. I'm on that poo poo. I really doubt you or TQ or FL are on that scum team either.

And even with the powerful roles, if there are 5 scum in a 15 player setup, then gently caress this game regardless. :) In my mind it is 3 or 4 max.

Being scum takes a lot of effort. You can get away with less as town, but I expect scum to put in some work or nobody has a good game.

Game wouldn't have ended today though. Since you can kill scum at night. Like tonight they could have killed you and you could have killed them. And the following night inf could protect someone, as an example. So even with 5 scum, their victory was not yet assured if you and Inf are town.

I mean, I'll be super mad at Kash if this is a 5 scum game, I'm not treating it seriously, but just fyi.

First off, let me apologise for not being around much. These 24 hour deadlines are loving me raw - when I'm available to play the USAians are all at work, when they're around and talking I'm asleep, and when I'm at work I'm confined to my phone so I can't review properly. It's been affecting my play noticeably and I've not had much chance to interact.

Dude, think for a second.

1) If I wanted to discredit Asiina, flipping her as Town wasn't going to do it.

2) If I was the scum RB, why would I not just say I visited Asiina last night and was now a Jailer? It could be disproven, but it would take time and effort.

Glowku for sure, his claim is fake as hell. AA for thinking a good response to probable MYLO is to completely ignore said fake claim. I'm less sold on Asiina after that because AA has been on him all game, but KB is the only person I'm pretty sure can't be scum.
