Kill CENA. It's where the scum is.

Yeah but Clue could also be lying, you see. And while Cena didn’t announce this in a totally town manner, it’s not impossible he was just dumb about it

I’m not backtracking on Cena here I still think we should lunch him but I don’t think we should write off Clue jus cuz he want “guh but I didn’t do that!”

Better idea. Cena, since you've outed yourself as a PR, can you full claim? You should have more than one target.

If clue is scum, why would he lie about targeting himself? If clue is town, why would he lie about targeting himself?
The reason to deny an action like that is to protect themselves from outing themselves as a role that can self target, of which there are only a few that would benefit.

None of this clears Clue as town (unless CENA flips scum, because drat that would be a hell of a gambit otherwise). But CENA's claim doesn't the needle in one direction or another about Clue's Alignment.

Fffff I'm trying to think of a way to ask for clarification that doesn't role fish but I'm not sure there is one.

The best I can find is: did you actively choose a target last night, one that was not yourself?

A "no" could imply a passive selection role or VT, but unfortunately "yes" can only mean a town PR, so if anyone's got a better question?

I think I remember the answer to this one, we have to ask how the other Rhymes would clue would answer, and then do the opposite.

i have a big shift today so I'll ask now: rhymes with pew, why did you self visit last night?

I guess I'm struggling to think about how this leads to thinking Clue is scum when the preponderance of roles where a self visit is useful are town, and if Clue was redirected that would almost certainly be without his knowledge.

Additionally, this is a relatively small game and the role locker was executed. What scum roles with night actions are out there that aren't killing roles?

I don't think Clue is scum, basically, and I think we should probably back off this line for a while.

How is self targeting scummy CENA? Why would lying about it be scummy?

Like, I've been dancing around it because it is a lovely thing, but you are trying to out our doc essentially. If you aren't lying about your results, the role that loving self targets is a doctor.

If he did self target, then he would lie about it because confirming it outs him as a doctor.
If he didn't self target then he isn't lying.
Those are by far the two most probable outcomes, one points to him being town as gently caress, the other has no bearing on his alignment.

i dont think clue is scum based off of night actions because thats too much of a wifom ocean. there are reasons why im not pressing the issue with clue but anyone posting in good faith already has that figured out

I mean cena is claiming watcher right? scum are down their rb, i don't see any reason why clue can't full claim.

rhymes being a doctor doesn't explain the pro-keane anti-town logic because it would mean that rhymes doesn't have any info as a town doctor to make that kind of statement.

Unless I’m mistake. In all this we have a direct lie between Cena and rhymes.

Yes I know there could be a bus driver or something but at this point I do want rhymes to answer something, even if he tells us to gently caress off and stop asking.

Yeah rhymes didn’t vote Cena. Cena isn’t voting rhymes. I have no ducking idea why Cena wanted to publicly out rhymes but that cat is out of the bag and I wouldn’t mind more clarification.

Yeah, I don't know if I buy there being a bus driver and a role blocker on a scum team this small. Esp since that implies a power-heavy town, and all the townies so far has flipped vanilla.

Cena, pretend I have a head injury here and just kind of hint me in the right direction?

My result isn't relevant as to where the scum is. Read interactions between my main FOSes. i think this is actually pretty solved.

I will also refer you back to this post, made before roles went out.

Also take a look at how Toal is also immediately backing away from calling me scum here:
