I believe this 100%. I myself picked up a backup role.

I feel like backup cop and doc are usually the only two backup roles, so I thought it was odd that you might have just softclaimed backup doc


Your assuming something very specific, and it feels like you want to know more about that information. Like whether I am or not a doctor.

Do we have any scum left or is it just a SK at this point?

If it’s an SK, I have a decent idea who it is.

Actually we have a bit to unpack from the night actions, there’s a couple of people I’d expect to see dead but instead we have a dead scum godfather.

DB were you successful in your night action?

Godfather+Janitor, Roleblocker, Poisoner, Ninja. For a 16-person game I feel like that has to be all of the scum and we just have SK left. I was actually only assuming 3+SK personally with this setup, so I was really surprised to see AA's flip.

That meant with 8 left alive last game day we had 2 scum + SK and 5 town. Two night actions, assuming they both hit town, would've been 3 town vs 2 scum + SK, kinda dodged a serious bullet there.

Anyway I also have my suspicions on who's the SK, but I also want to hear something from DB given a claimed backup role, and I also want to hear what Gaspy has to say.

Also, quick number crunching, since it's worth pointing out: Assuming we only have SK left (a good assumption at this point) - we can mislunch a townie today and, assuming SK kills again during the night, that would force lylo.

Sorry for not posting yesterday, but the day was over before I could look at the thread. I would have corroborated Asphyxious and DB's claim, because I too received a backup role. Specifically, I'm the backup Tracker, and I followed Xad tonight, and he went to visit AA.
Now, since the town roleblocking role in this game is Jailer, which from my understanding also protects the target, this can only mean that Xad is the SK and that the doctor protected whoever was the scum NK target.

Well, from my end it's deduction from facts. I tracked Xad, he visits AA, AA is dead and was scum. This means he's not the target for the scum NK, so it means that he was the SK kill and that the scum NK failed for whatever reason. Now, this doesn't strictly mean that Xad is the SK, but it sure looks like it's the more probable outcome, since of four (well, three, since I'm the tracker) revealed town PR that could've been given as backup Cop is the only one that can visit the person who was NKed without preventing the actual NK, but you already claimed that, went uncontested and nabbed scum, so unless you are scum who got incredibly lucky with pretending they got a backup role without confirmation of such a thing being possible, I'm inclined to take the easiest route and think Xad is the SK. And the same easiest route leads me to believe that the doctor succesfully blocked the scum NK.

But in the interest of not being overly antagonistic, ##unvote.

I never said there's no more scum. But I think if there are any left, there can't be more than one, because for it to be 2 surviving scum would mean that we started the game with 7 anti-town players (6 scum and a SK) on a total of 16 with two possible NKs per night, and that sounds... excessive. Getting back to the point, in this situation getting the last scum or getting the SK is functionally the same thing, they are both isolated anti-town players with a NK. And since I have information about Xad, I'll make sure he's the lunch today.

I don't think there's any more scum because five scum + SK in a setup of 16 seems wildly, hilariously unbalanced and while it is far too early in the morning to do math on my end and I haven't slept I feel like that means we've dodged lylo like 2-3 times at this point.

Like at some point I have to make setup deductions and figure there's probably not any scum remaining on the board because, based on the sheer number of people playing this game, having that many scum seems literally impossible, even with having multiple PRs that can lock down what happened to people.

That being said, claiming Tracker seems weird given MMT was also tracker. What gives, Lupus?

I'm the backup tracker, I said it when I first claimed. Didn't know it until night 3, after the tracker was killed. I assume that the other claimed backups were in the same situation.

Man I got SHAFTED this game with luck of the draw this game then, hahaha.

Anyway I'm willing to believe that claim and since I feel fairly certain there's no scum left, and Xad had always been in my periphery suspicions, I believe we should get rid of Xad. I will not throw my vote out until I've gotten some sleep because friends don't let friends vote while sleep deprived, but consider me believing your claim.

well, there are two possibilities.

(this is much more likely imo) 1. Gaspy is back-up doc and I Jailed him/her last night to thwart his/her doom. There might be a blocked scum NK, I think it likely. SK kill made it through.

(possible, but not likely) 2. Gaspy is scum whom I blocked by Jailing. SK kill made it through.

I think Xad is last scum that got blocked. Mona for SK.

That's what I meant. But Xad's questioning me about the doc role had that the forefront of my mind. Either way, you had claimed and I had a hunch you were the next nk target. I honestly didn't consider a back up doc would do the same, which is retarded in hind sight. So if Xad is doc, then it Mona or lup. Lup claimed tracker so it's probably Mona.
