Well here's something - neither of my gift receivers are speaking up. Interesting, I gave them both something that would be valuable to townies and near useless to scum. I was also told they weren't told what those things do. So either they think they know, or they don't care.

AS: scum has a lot of advantages over town, mostly related to what information they have. The information they don't have, however, is which townies have which roles. Airing out our roles publicly allows scum to better target and prioritise their NK targets. Ideally, people wouldn't claim their roles until they get something out of it - an incriminating result on a player, confirmation of a claim, something like that. Just coming in thread and saying "i've got a power" but without anything to show for it is net negative for town.

Really? Man is trying to get his giftees to come out as his giftees. If they do so scum are likely to murder them tonight because they have admitted powers.

It's a play I don't understand because it's bizarre if he's town and also additionally bizarre if he's scum. If he's town it's odd because of the above, if he's scum, why does scum have the ability to grant abilities to other players and why would they give those abilities to town.

Yeah, very new. Hey, I had to claim to avoid a landslide vote so I could use my power. I don't know if my gift receivers are town either, so people knowing I gave something to somebody might help in the long run.

I still feel I should give out the poison publicly since who kills whom with it seems very relevant to town interests.

Have you in any way breadcrumbed what your gifts were? There could be multiple roles going about that do similar things.

I understand getting three votes is scary but, you weren't going to get killed. It's hard to figure out the rhythm of a game but you weren't in any kind of danger. Err towards withholding your claim in the future!

Reading wiki articles on Janitor, they do say that in many cases the janitor gets the flip information and should then claim the role that person had.

If we assume I'm the scum janitor and fakeclaimed the role I just killed what would the logical play be?

I'd probably claim to have tracked another scum player that I knew didn't move that night and then they'd come to my defense saying that's correct.

The problem I have is that we tracked gif because Jfisk suggested it at the beginning of the night and then went afk because of thanksgiving. I actually suggested that we should use gunsmith instead because to me that's like having a cop, but he wasn't around for it. Eventually he got a PM to somber saying he was definitely picking track and so I kept to the original plan.

So unfortunately, now, the only person who can verify what I've said is a guy who has posted all of like four times since the game started.

yeah there's also cleaners / forensic investigators wherein town has to use a night action to figure out the flip. It's setup speculation either way, all we know is we have a useless flip

I don't particularly like this basically unprompted If I Were Scum play, especially in light of what EXAKT said that's been part of my thinking all along:

Hello friends.

I can probably shed some light on this.

I was in a masonry with Fisk. Combined we were a town aligned JOAT. We could track, watch or gunsmith people. Fisk would pick the JOAT ability to use and I would pick the target. With Fisk dead we've lost JOAT since I can target people but can't JOAT. So I'm VT for the rest of the game.

I can say that we tracked Gif last night and he didn't visit anyone.

Let's examine: it doesn't tell us anything! any random flip is most likely to be town. all this does is give YT a free claim on town that's basically unconfirmable, because gif isn't posting anyway and indeed was nearly lynched for being a lurker.

In addition, YT is part of the D1 no-lynch squad which is never a good idea for town, especially an apathy no-lynch

AS literally suggests that I might be the scum janitor claiming to be assuming the role of the person that flipped.

This is an awful case to make based off of either poorly reading what I've written and the context in which it was written or deliberately obscuring stuff to build a claim.
