yronic heroism posted:What does an echo cop power look like? I'm evaluating the "tnl was cleared" theory but don't understand the power. I don't know if Echo Cop is actually supposed to be an "Ecco Cop" which is a cop that sends in three names and is told if there is at least one scum player in the group or not, or some other cop variant due to the different spelling.

If it's an Ecco Cop then presumably Kash could have cleared two other people. I would almost rather you guys ignored Kashuno's results completely and evaluate me on my arguments and play instead of debating endlessly how cleared I am.

You honestly don't think it's a problem when we start off D5 with players going "welp, we all know DCB is scum, let's just lynch him" the same way they're doing right now? You honestly mean to tell me you think that's not useful to the actual scum who are out there looking for all the cover they can get? I mean, fine, I take your point, I'll knock it off, but frankly I disagree with you.

It's not a problem because presumably you could make a case against someone else more compelling than suspicions that supposing you are town you would know are wrong. The problem is when you insist you're the best possible person we could kill which gives every player town or scum an easy and good reason to want you dead. Like seriously we have six people alive and will have maybe two chances at scum. If you're town why on Earth would you want yourself to be one of those chances?

DCB seeming increasingly scummy but that's always been his posting style. My gut still says TNL. I don't thing Kash cleared him and fear he has enough mastery to play us like a fiddle. ##vote TNL

Voting me because you're afraid of how well I've been playing is incredibly dumb. Come up with some kind of case at least.

yronic heroism posted:First impression: Town could legit believe this but if TNL is scum this would be devious politicking to get imp and stickup to take me out, since they've been willing to do so in the past, then he keeps the option of a case against DCB or chores open. This is the case. I don't pretend it's ironclad. I think remaining scum is playing a good game. TNL is a good player.

##vote no lynch I don't see any downside to this beyond the possibility of my own death, and a lot of upside to the town. If scum kills someone then flavor may shed light into which faction the remaining scum player is. Also eliminates a town player from the suspect pool and makes it easier for town players to achieve consensus (3/5 is easier to hit than 4/6). If scum no kills then maybe stickup or another unclaimed role can get some info. The only risk to a no lynch is if there are two nightkills out there. If that's the case town may end up in a lylo situation where they can get one scum but will lose to the other. But I think there's only 1 scum alive and in any case this would also be a problem if we flipped the wrong person today.

Sure and if I'm a good player who rolled town this game then I'm an asset to have alive. You can speculate all you want about why I'm not dead yet but keep in mind scum might have left me alive to advance that very argument (or equally likely they're not too worried about my current performance this game).

We have 6 alive so if we vote someone out tomorrow is lylo. If we NL instead then we're at 5 alive, minus one town player and possible suspect, and it's still not lylo.

The worst case scenario to a no lynch imo is that scum simply doesn't do anything, stickup's role turns out to be useless and then we're back where we started.

if youre a town player and you think youre good you shouldnt say well i guess we should nl when youve expressed suspicion about a player this day who, as mentioned, is essentially refusing to even remotely play towny the worst case scenario is you, the smart town player, gets nkd

2 penny bottle imp posted:I think you have talked more about lynching yourself than anyone else. Nah, fewer words, just more posts. People want more cases, I'll make more cases. Chores: gets credit for being post leader, but starts off with song lyrics for half a page on his post history, then was silent for D1 before he swept in to hammer RetroFuturist at the literal last second. "i believe that the scum killed tobbs and kash was killed by a town player for extremely bad posting yesterday" jumps out at me for some reason that I can't quite put my finger on. Spends a day laser-focused on Mr. F!; when it turns out Mr. F! was town, he's the only one of the people who voted for him to give himself some cover by posting about how bad a town player he (Mr. F!) is. I don't think he's wrong, only that he's the only one who felt the need to make the post for cover. As near as I can tell his entire case on Mr. F! amounted to "because I said so," or if there was more depth of thought there he did not bother sharing with the rest of the class. Was the first person to vote for a player today after the rationale for a no-lynch had been set forth (imp was the first to vote a player, but unvoted shortly after and then made the no-lynch suggestion). Stickup: Has consistently voted for people who later flipped town (I talked about this days ago), while avoiding voting for Flamander. Later tries to say he was "supporting Flamander's lynch" (in this post) while keeping his vote on yronic all day, where there was no bandwagon whatsoever and it might as well have been a no-vote. Has alluded to having a n0 action and some kind of special ability, has shared very little of that information. I'm still thinking he'd be a good lynch for the reasons I stated way back when I claimed bodyguard. Imp: God drat I'm getting more and more convinced that that mason claim is some kind of genius; it still jumps out to me that derp was the first person to discuss masonry, potentially laying groundwork for his much-less-experienced (3rd game!) scumbuddy to have some cover if he lets slip that he has information he couldn't otherwise have. My gut tells me that's a stretch, though. His posting's been scummy but I can hardly throw too many stones here. I'm actually leaning town on imp right now. First one to call for a no-lynch, as well, which is hardly beneficial to scum at this point. TNL: I've been having troubles separating TNL's later play from my own reaction to the "headache-inducing" argument we had on D1, which I'll admit has left me a little more gunshy when it comes to checking him out. Was absolutely convinced that derp was town, and was vocal about that. His play today reads very towny to me, though. The comments he made about "The only risk to a no lynch" are ones that occurred to me as well, but if he was scum there'd be no reason to bring them up. yronic: Again, have to try and move past my own biases based on the fact that I was stone cold certain that my protecting him N1 and stickup's immediate tunneling on him D2 was Important. That said, he never has seemed overly scummy to me. The D2 stickup/yronic slapfight took up too much spotlight from these two for me to get a super clear read. Stickup or chores, those are my choices, but under the present circumstances I think it's smarter to ##vote no lynch. The worst case scenarios there are better than the worst case scenarios of voting wrong.

Even numbers are always beneficial to scum because the odds the execution hits them are lower, and the bar for town to make the right call is higher.
