Alright, I'm kind of lazily going through the game, reading up on mod posts first, help me out and keep me informed on a good read through:

1.) Was an explanation given for fisk's lack of a flip? I'm assuming not, just want to get it clear first before going forward.

2.) Why was there a shift off of gif? Why did a vote fall apart day one?

CCKeane: Jan 28, 2008; my shit posts don't die, they multiply

Alright, another quick readthrough of Fisk's posts, they're all pretty mild. I'm looking at it and thinking that Fisk could have been a low post count kill? Anything I'm missing?

Because if he was killed either because he was irritating somebody or because he was posting less than others, that gives us some information, particularly the latter case, since gif has posted less than fisk.

I'm always very wary when a vote candidate doesn't get it pushed through like what happened d1.

Yup, I (or rather, who I replaced) visited gif night one.

The events from that led me to think he was scum, that is why I started going after him early.

I was mistaken.

Holy poo poo, we actually have no idea if Fisk was town or scum. They could have been a survivor mason pair or a duo team SK.

YT has also kinda checked out. Could be why. I wonder if they poisoned Probst and we dunked him.

Both seem unlikely.

He did tell YT to read his PMs at one point which implies masons at least

There's a huge difference between masons and confirmed masons.

Take a look at YT's arguments for no voting day one - it seems to mirror his latest posts w/r/t his masonry and role with Fisk.

To be clear: I think YT's hot takes were very much in the vain of "I AM RIGHT EVEN IF IT GETS ME VOTED" which is a mistake, of course, dying on that particular hill is absurd.

That said, his dying on the masonry hill and how towny he was also strikes me the same way. I think I'm off YT.

That said, THIS POST:

So this talk of bread crumbs got me thinking
Cause sometimes they can be really useful
Usually though they are useless
Myself, I would never do one

Honestly I see nothing won't with saying jot instead of joat
Unless you guys can think of a way to fit joat into a sentence
Not counting the lame "hey I'm a joat"
To be fair I think that would be funny
Exciting though it may be, it wouldn't be a very good crumb
Ridiculous claims and crumbs always make the game more fun though

Man I love playing with you Dhaes.

Me, knowing the reasoning: "I believe revealing my role is not useful to the town."

You, with less information: "I disagree! It is scummy!"

So what we have here is Quid attempting to force me to reveal my role (and, to be clear, he was dancing around coming out aggressively about it - he says "hmmm that's scummy" a lot but doesn't really push for it). This is scummy because if Quid is town, "I will not reveal my role" should either end the conversation or blow it up right then, without testing the waters so much. If Quid is scum, on the other hand, he can either force a reveal, or, potentially, lead an execution if he gets even support - support I believe he was feeling out with earlier posts about my role.

This is scummy.

Yorkshire Tea posted:

There are lots of other things, but they're not things I'd be so cagey about mentioning as a town player. That's honestly what's making me as suspicious as I am.

I do actually see a situation where a town Keane would want to remain quiet though (after a little think about it) and would have made that mistake, but I'm laying fairly low odds on it.

Since you're a logical player:

1.) Being quiet about roles can make it difficult for scum to properly address it. Let's say I had a one shot, and poof, it's gone? Well, now maybe scum will waste a roleblock on me. Or kill me! And get less utility from it.

2.) It's not always roles being weird, but roles can interact in weird ways and make things seem strange. Getting more information is useful here.

3.) Scum would be feeling a lot of anxiety about me now, no?

My name, "brutal cop". I get a result, my target is roleblocked that night.

Gif came back "mafia". I cleverly breadcrumbed my role in my first post of the game.

RF I investigated night two. He came back "not mafia".

I was blocked night three.

Don't know the reason for the results.
