There that Merk guy goes again! What a whacky fellow.

Anyway I have some thoughts:

Kat's first post caused me to raise an eyebrow when I read it initially. Looking over Kat as a whole, these two posts stand out. These don't actually get us anywhere closer to finding scum nor do they give an opinion about any player. He's posting with things that make it look like he's scum hunting without actually scum hunting.

There hasn't been anything I've really felt a strong reaction too. My gut says you, for what it's worth, but that's familiarity and contempt. I've never actually been good at this game I'm just good with excel.

The non-auspollers I can't read as they talk in more injokes than we do and I've never really figured the forensic linguist style of Mafia. It feels like justifications to push an agenda rather than actual data. I do projections on who people vote for, patterns, cracking the night action outcomes, and that never really gets going until d2. I don't trust my guts without SOME data for backup since the Mario game. It's not scummy, it's just not my position on the field.

This seems very, very breakable.

I knew it. Bif.

Always bif.

This is how people see me?
drat. I'm sorry.
I thought I was aggressive and scatterbrained until I figured a pattern and harry the target (which ends up being innocent or drops out or completely invalidated right as I effort post).

I'll try to be more engaging and thoughtful.


It's valid, I always vote you early because you always seem to draw scum when I'm playing. And you're a dangerous scum. Very canny. So when day 1 has no info, you're someone who I always suspect, which gives direction.


Lynch proof and retribution?
Or liar and ruse?


Delayed omgus?

Wrt the Ecco role claim it sounds, from what I know about Anidav and his love of old consoles, his admission that there are custom roles in this game and the kookyness of Ecco the dolphin, three names out, signal back. It sounds like a totally reasonable Anidav thought, not something Quidnose might make up on the spot.
I'm willing to believe it, which lines up with my suspicion of Bif being scum.

Bromplicated, I've got no reads or meta on. After this I'm going to read their post history in the thread because this is getting long.
I'm town aligned. I'm a Nintendo DS.
I think we should vote for one of the nominated people that Quidnose named because 33% or 66% is much higher chance of successfully lynching a scum than the rest.

This is scummy and defensive and focused little on finding scum.

Quid what is your role name?

Quidnose posted:

Real talk, I lied about being an Ecco cop. My role PM told me the three people I named were handheld gaming devices so I named them to see how they would react.

Janus is NOT listed in my role PM as a handheld gaming device which means he is clearly lying here. This coming out of nowhere is hella suspicious. ##vote Janus

I thought you were lying once I thought about it some.

Why is Janus's statement a contradiction with what your PM says? Does your PM list all hand held units?

CCKeane

So basically, Quidnose is claiming a role that is like town, but with an extra win condition then. Strange.

CCKeane
Jan 28, 2008

Also, here's the thing that threw me. Quidnose claimed ecco cop, but this is an Auspol mod, and they'd be unlikely to use that terminology. When Kommando was confused I got thrown and thought about that.

I'm thinking right now it's Quid and we go from there.

I'd very much like to see what happens in light of Quid's claim, and that can be a useful driver for the next couple of days. That said, this action kicks that can down the road. As Bif is one of the candidates, I find this exceptionally suspicious.

Yeah, I think some people who wanted to get the case off of the Quidnose bit were scum looking for townie cred when he flipped (for them) as town.

I think Bif's attempts to move the conversation away from Quid is part of this.

I think a pretty drat important thing to point out here is that eliminating Quidnose was objectively the correct move for town to take.
