Okay, got my clarification. So I'm going to write a short novel.

Spider-Man's Amazing Construction Company
To begin: I am a Lychford Bulletproof Bodyguard. This means that I can protect another player, and if they're targeted with a killing action, I will die in their place - but the first kill that targets me will fail. I do not get a message if that protection is triggered.

(the clarification I wanted was to double-check that my protection applies if I'm intercepting a killing action on my protectee, which of course it does, but it was phrased with just the teensiest degree of ambiguity so I wanted to be 100% certain)

No naturally, n1's no-kill piqued my interest, because hey, it could have been because I protected the person that scum was targeting! Mind you, that's very much not a guarantee - no message when the protection fires, remember - but still, it was a possibility. I feel okay claiming now because either the protection fired and now if I get killed at night it muddies the waters (people thinking 'oh this person must be scum because they had reason to want DCB dead' when actually no one wanted me dead in the first place, I just got in the way), so better to get that information out early, or the protection didn't fire and now scum has to be concerned about who I might protect, and anything that makes scum's lives harder is okay in my book.

Point is, on n1 I protected yronic.

Now, like I said, I don't know for certain that I was responsible for the n1 no-kill, but I did go into d2 thinking about what might follow from a no-kill; I decided that if I were scum and the person we wanted to kill didn't actually get killed, I would probably do my utmost to see that person get lynched, just in case they have some kind of bullshit nightkill immunity or whatever.

(incidentally, I picked yronic because he was the only player to respond to my (entirely sincere, not a trap) "d1 no-lynches aren't inherently awful" post by not calling me a colossal fuckup, which was petty and silly but gently caress it, it was n1, it's not like there was anything solid to base a decision on)

Which brings me to stickup, who opened up d2 by voting Saith, the safest of all possible votes, not realizing that Saith had been replaced by Tobbs, and then two minutes later switching his vote to yronic and keeping it there all day. This was hardly conclusive guilt - like I said, I can't be certain that yronic was the scum target n1 and even if he was I can't be certain that stickup would react to being blocked the way I did - but it was enough to get him on my radar. That only accentuated all the other pings; the "look at my posting history in these games where I was town" as though that had any meaning at all (because of course a scum player is going to try and fit within their established townie pattern), the laser fixation on yronic, the "I am supporting the case against Flamander even though I'm not voting for him with like fifteen minutes left because maybe there would be some sort of groundbreaking discussion at the last second" weaseling, et cetera; I've discussed this in several posts now.

I'm not calling it proof, but this is why I've been pretty suspicious of stickup since early d2; dude reads to me like a guy trying to get town to do during the day what scum failed to do during the night. So that's where I'm coming from, and I'd like to see what the rest of town thinks about it.

If you're the watcher then why did you make this post???

That's not great. I really don't get this play at all, except as foegetfulness (and if your role really were watcher, wouldn't you remember?)

Frankly either Mr F or Derp is scum, and I tend to believe Derp.

He made up a lame claim to get me killed cause pressure was on. I have been 100% honest this game. I am a doc and ive protected myself every night, just like i said. it stopped the kill one night. I got a message n1 that said flamander was scum and tnl town. I told the thread. And it turned out true for flam. Im also mason with another player who can attest to my truthfulness if they choose to. He is making up lies to sow confusion. Hes scum.

Basically Derp knows what his actions were. He knows whether Mr F is lying. We kill one then kill the other if needed. Boom done.

Mr F's claim was really bad and vague by the way.

ok but

what if derp is lying

if you are scum and you get called out for targetting somebody, what do you do? you say you targeted somebody different, obviously. thought question for you -- why did mr. f choose derp, of all people, to throw suspicion on? why did he not choose somebody who was more scummy?

Probs because he wanted a self healing doc to be lynched.

If MR F flips town, then derp is lying and we turbolynch. 1 scum in 2 lynches is a good deal.

There has been a lot of discussion. We have 2 competing claims. This is a pretty clear cut case for a lynch.

If someone lynches overnight, great.

The claim is that derp is lying. If derp is lying, then he isn't targetting himself.

Again, getting the doc lynched seems like a fair hail mary pass for scum.
