We have absolutely no idea who is what, and to be honest, this has been the least exciting thread we have ever read on SA; zero flavor at all, just stupid, stupid, stupid yelling.

We don't think Kashuno is scum, but if throwing him off a tower will save us from 11 pages of stupid banter, we are all for it.

INGREDIENTS
3 1/2 ounces granulated sugar (1/2 cup; 100g)
1 teaspoon (4g) baking powder
1/2 teaspoon (3g) baking soda
1/2 teaspoon (2g) Diamond Crystal kosher salt; for table salt, use half as much by volume or use the same weight
1 ounce unsalted butter (2 tablespoons; 30g), melted
1/4 ounce vanilla extract (1 1/2 teaspoons; 7ml)
3 large egg yolks, preferably free-range for color
4 ounces plain, unsweetened nonfat Greek yogurt (1/2 cup; 110g), room temperature
6 1/2 ounces low-protein, all-purpose flour (shy 1 1/4 cup; 185g), such as Gold Medal, plus more for dusting
Refined coconut oil, enough to reach a 2” depth; about 32 ounces (1L) in an 8” pot
4 ounces powdered sugar (1 cup; 115g)

DIRECTIONS

1.Making and Shaping the Dough: Combine granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl, then stir in melted butter, vanilla, egg yolks, and Greek yogurt. When well combined, sift in flour and stir to form a soft dough, no more than 30 seconds. Turn onto a lightly floured work surface and knead until easy to handle. Dusting with as much flour as needed, roll to 3/8 inch thick. Brush off excess flour with a damp pastry brush and cut into 1 3/4–inch rounds. Arrange upside down on a paper towel–lined baking sheet, then brush away excess flour. Gather scraps, briefly knead, and repeat as before.

2.Forming the Hole: With a damp fingertip, press an indentation into the center of each doughnut, then flip the doughnuts and repeat. Take one doughnut in both hands and use a finger to gently pull open a hole in the center. (The paper-thin centers will give way at the slightest touch.) Smooth the ragged edges if you like and repeat with the remaining doughnuts.

3.Preparing the Oil: Melt refined coconut oil in a microwave, then pour into a roughly 8- to 10-inch stainless steel pot to a depth of at least 2 inches. (This gives cake doughnuts room to sink, allowing them to fry more quickly and absorb less oil.) Clip on digital thermometer and warm to 365°F over medium heat. Meanwhile, line a baking sheet with 3 layers of paper towels and have the powdered sugar ready in a fine-mesh sieve.

4.Frying the Doughnuts: When oil reaches 365°F, practice maintaining that temperature for a few minutes before beginning to fry. Once you're comfortable with the controls, slip a test doughnut into the hot oil and fry until pale gold, turning frequently with tongs to ensure even color, about 60 seconds. Transfer to a paper towel–lined baking sheet, then sprinkle generously with powdered sugar. Taste to see how you like the results, adding or subtracting a few seconds if needed to perfect subsequent batches. Fry remaining doughnuts, up to 6 or 7 at a time, and enjoy warm with powdered sugar. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 36 hours at room temperature (these are best dunked in milk or coffee).

THIS PERSON GETS IT!
Finally someone addressing the food problem.
Now we just need to address the bedding problem.

Considering we have no idea of what roles are in the game, how many factions there are, or any of that, "randomly" picking somebody is really the only option, isn't it? I mean, you can try to infer whatever you want from what people are posting, but all the gambits and accusations and meta-gaming amount to nothing of substance or value until they are seen in hindsight. And even then...

I want to review Shadow0's posts as well, as he's admitted to being the 3 Headed Knight and in no way can I see him being part of the Round Table from a flavour perspective.

Yes, it is true.
I once tried to kill Robin.
But I have since then found the light, my savior and hero, Mayor Glowku.

I don't know if this setup has been used before, so admitting I was a scum class would be pretty dumb if it said I was a scum class.
Though due to my past transgressions again Robin, Brave Sir Robin, I show up as scum, a Miller one might say.
So investigating me is a waste if anyone has that ability.

For Shadow0 I think he has straight up flavour-slipped, and is probably a rookie mistake on his part (Is he a new player?)

Posts in questions for reference:







Once he's realised he's been caught out on it, switches from using 'We' to be less obvious about the PR:


His main votes for the day were twice for Kashuno, being the hammer on YPM, and these votes from the same post where he swapped from using 'We'


I still post in triplets.
It just made more sense to me to use "I" for each head.
I wanted to do it so the last message was always something random, but I figured that'd be confusing.

I regret changing my posting gimmick after I had already introduced it.
But the "we" sounds more like a hive mind rather than what I was going for.

Not that I'll stop either way.

My flavor text tells me I'm :words:.
But It's hard to out-:words: all of you.
Though I'd probably be :words: anyway because I'm me.

Can someone explain why exposing your flavor is dangerous?
It seemed like someone can kill you or something if they know?
Are there special character interactions or something?

The way I see it, town has to have more members than scum, right?
So it seems like a lot of characters you might expect to be scum are town.
Or are there multiple teams, and it's a 1/3 vs 1/3 vs 1/3 or something scenario?

TheDonPeters seems insightful.

I'm a bit confused on Infinitum's claim that I flavor-slipped on the "we" thing.
Does he mean he thinks I am actually a role that would use the royal "we", like King Arthur or something?
Or does he mean I accidentally revealed I was the Three-Headed Knight, because that was never a secret.

I feel like I'm cheating a bit with my gimmick.
