To the people questioning the Kasu vote, look at his posting this game. Look at how he's jumped from one wrong thing to another throughout the game. I don't think he's actually wrong anymore, I think he's faking.

Instead of just linking I'll try and do a tl;dr recap

* My role is a jailer, where I can choose whether I wish to kill my target. (it reminds me of the variant where you get a temporary masonry with the prisoner, so you can decide whether or not to kill them, but I don't get that cool part. i just gotta pick murder or no murder.)

* Last night I didn't feel certain enough to jump to killing anybody yet, so I jailed more defensively: I picked Birdstrike cause he'd participated well, I liked his reads on Somber, YT and Kasu and thought he sounded town (and if i was wrong well, he gets blocked so there)

* No deaths last night, and Fisk shows up all "hey I was BP and scum tried to kill me but failed". I hint that this isn't the only possible explanation, but ask if he's been actually notified of his BP going off cause that'd make it pretty clear. Fisk dodges the question and says he's just pretty sure it was him. This sounds like bullshit to me since why would he assume that confidently that he was the target? When there's easy alternate explanations out there like a doc or block? I'd see Birdstrike as a much likelier target than Fisk and get worried that Fisk is trying to muddy the waters and claim false town cred. To check my memory, I re-read Fisk and it doesn't take long. He had only one single post where he made actual reads, maybe a couple more with very light opinions but not stating a case. And he didn't cast a single vote until it was crunch time on binus.

* I try and see if I could get Fisk lunched without having to out my role, by making this case on him:

Bifauxnen posted:

##vote Fisk

Fisk spent D1 doing practically nothing. His first game post that came anywhere close to a read or opinion on another player was this:

quote:

Here it is

The mega townie slap fight call

to mildly criticize one of YT's posts. If YT is in fact scum, this would be some nice tame distancing.

Then he had this post which is the entirety of all his actual reads D1:

quote:

Thanks, friend

Gun to head I'd go with KB

Though somber is a possibility

He never cast a single vote all day until he voted b-minus to help secure that lunch.

And now he thinks the scum wanna kill him? I think it's far more likely the scum got blocked or the target got doc'ed, and he's trying to make the most of it.

* Kasu chimes in all "this is more scumhunting than town Fisk usually does!" :iceburn: Fisk then OMGUSes me hard. He jumps right to calling me desperate before he even casts the first vote on me. And at every single turn he's framing things in a dodgy way or misrepresenting my posts. He tried to imply that I was arguing he had a "gotcha" claim on KB with his night actions when I did no such thing, I just criticized him for having only 1 post with reads, and his KB case was a mere gut read at that with no further effort or explanation. He tried to imply I was rolefishing about what he'd already come forward to claim, while constantly insisting how there was no counter evidence against his claim, just baiting me to come out with it.

* Kasu once again backs up his bud Fisk, and so far the thread tone seems to not be promising and it's already dragging out into a huge slapfight, so I claim. Fisk then decides to up his claim from BP to town doctor, who self-protected. Surprisingly, Kasu who thought the BP claim was too early or too risky for Fisk has no problem with him proving it was a gambit all along, and has no problem with believing I'm doing a much more outlandish lie for even less reason.

* Birb goofs around like usual to claim he's barely reading the thread and refuses to confirm he was blocked, though eventually he says he believes me. Doesn't give me a good feeling what with his earlier ninja-edited-out post.

* I would like to lunch Kasu instead today since I'm still pretty sure about him being scum, but not AS sure as Fisk, who I can then attempt to murder tonight.

looks like you figured it out now - I am not more sure about Kasu than Fisk, but I still feel fairly sure now that Kasu is scum based on how dodgy all his defenses of Fisk have sounded today. So I'd be happy to lunch him today instead of Fisk, that way I can save my murder attempt for the one I feel most absolutely confident about, and save myself some potential embarrassment and a likely mislunch if I was wrong about somebody else.

If Kasu flipped scum I'd just continue to believe Fisk is also scum. If Kasu flipped town I'd be very surprised, but it wouldn't convince me that I'm wrong about Fisk. It's hardly the first time town would've bought into really bad arguments against me.

My opinion on Fisk could only be changed by Fisk himself. ...or maybe a hypothetical daycop but I'd still feel pretty suss until they flipped.

to clarify - it could be changed by Fisk dramatically improving his casing and posting all of a sudden and throwing down a bunch of reads and solid reasoning instead of just Night Action Mafia, until it was enough to think he might have a town mindset.

I'd still suspect his doc claim is implausible, but seeing as you're claiming PGO and KB is claiming something else cool that he thinks is too much, I don't know why everyone's thinking this is supposed to be a tame vanilla setup. So it could be at least somehow possible.

....I don't actually believe Fisk will ever post well enough to overcome that extremely high hurdle though, no.

Assuming Fisk flips scum, I'd continue to see Kasu as scummy and backing him up with dodgy arguments.

If Fisk flipped town, that would give me a lot more pause on just the whole game in general and I'd have to rethink everything. I'm pretty sure I'd still see Kasu as very scummy though. I'm not sure why as town he'd back up Fisk so much in the way he did while also having no issue with Fisk proving his BP claim really was a gambit all along, and also believing my claim isn't too outlandish to be doing this early. I'd see Kasu as still independently scummy, but for different motivations - trying to buddy up to a controversial townie instead of putting out scum calls.
