I'm trying to explain that I'm a person who wishes to live a very quiet life.
Also I got a result from assisting MMT, not sure if it means something to her but it’s a bit cryptic.

if mod gave you a gun right now who would you shoot?

With the caveats of one - I assume we're excluding BK from this because, yeah - and two... assuming this is a 'gun to my head and gun in my hand' situation, because I'm not sure how strongly I feel on these, which is part of the problem--

Gaspy, I think. Partially for when and how the vote on IP, partially for the vote to assist MMT just a bit ago - while I hope MMT will be an alright candidate for receiving the one-shot, but I don't know if I like the end of discussion so suddenly, either. But also acknowledging that's pretty weak. That said...

One of TMM or maybe Bif? So far I've generally been agreeing with some of the general points, but based on the vague lines of discussion, seeing a flip on either of them I think would be an interesting piece of the grander puzzle.


also dumb newbie question, maybe, but: what does '3P' refer to? I've seen it mentioned around one or two places i think but i'm not sure i get it from the context?

3rd Party (3p), not scum or town aligned. normally have own win condition.

So just to clarify you want to shoot (in order) gaspy or tmm or bif? or gaspy and tmm or bif?

I am here for the foreseeable future (as I just finished working a half-hour shift, lol).

I found a Singed Lasso as a result of the search. It gives me a one-shot roleblock.

There wasn't much flavor at all, other than it being found in the remains of a burned up barn. I'm honestly not sure what people are referring to but welcome any questions / information that anyone might have.

TMMadman posted:

I'm coming around on the idea that BK is actually scum and if he is then I think MMT/Gaspy are scum with him. It's also possible that IS is scum too and MMT went for a double bus, but that seems a bit risky.

I feel confident that Gaspy is town. I'm having a lot of trouble making an alignment call on TMM because

(a) he's giving me the impression that he's scumhunting / putting thought and work in, but
(b) I don't agree with any of the conclusions that he's coming to

I'm suspicious of the fact that TMM has had so much to say about Max (who doesn't seem suspicious to me) and then me, while barely having anything to say about the contents of the case on IS. Here are some posts in a nutshell that sum up my case there:

BottleKnight posted:

Do you have any examples? Because I’m not really feeling IP or IS for scum and this is the part of your post that pokes out to me the most

When I was casing IS, BK says that he disagrees with my scum read there, but doesn't really explain any reasons regarding why. He later votes for IP, despite saying he has a town read there as well.

Full disclosure: I'm internally already assuming that BK is scum who NK'ed Asiina n1.

IllegallySober posted:

I disagree with her opinion here re: BK, but at least she’s got an explanation for her thought process. And she did mention beforehand that early-week was tough for her and is catching up now, so we’ll see what that leads to.

I’m not sure where else to go right now. Somebody want to sell me on a case that isn’t BK, for the moment?

---

I disagreed with your opinion of BK because you were suspicious of him and I read him for town at that point. That’s pretty much the extent of it, although I did say you at least had an explanation to back up your point of view.

When I was casing BK, IS says that he disagrees with my scum read there, but doesn't really explain any reasons regarding why. Even when I asked him why he disagreed with me, he didn't really go into any sort of detail.

TMM: in a hypothetical world where BK is dayvigged right now, flips scum, and this game day continues, who would your strongest suspect be?
