Yes, it was incredible. The way they closed it out was perfect, I had totally forgotten about that interview.

##vote tobbs

His "I trust people who asked for confessionals" line is good, because from my (very limited) experience in other games I've observed it's true that scum don't really use them. And as a one-off that's fine. But several times he's referenced his own confessional, as if to hammer home "everyone I'm very townie see look at me writing in my diary instead of talking it through with other people."

I'm also not a fan of his MMT meta read of her being aggressive as scum when she's straight up admitted that she plays the opposite way. If Tobbs flips scum she'd be my first look tomorrow since that's a pretty hard defense of someone.

There's also some other stuff reading through his posts that just ping me though I can't figure out why.

I also feel that in the Tobbs/Toal argument Toal looked more like their frustrated descending into madness town self than scum.

The first part of this pings me as suspicious, in that to me Tobbs is saying "I trust people who asked for confessionals" like town trying to provide useful information (as opposed to scum playing a strategy). That said, I feel like I've driven mislynches on IP the last few times we played so I'm down to err on the side of "maybe I just can't read IP".

Please don't forget the full part of that, which is that Tobbs has mentioned multiple times that he's gonna use his confessional, as if to remind us that he's definitely town.

Hi good morning everyone.

Murmur Twin posted:

The fact that people are just giving somber a pass is bonkers to me, like if I can’t convince town that (a) his case on toal was fake, (b) his unwillingness to claim even to save himself is probably a sign that he didn’t want to lie and (c) if he were town, scum would’ve had no issues dropping the hammer, I kinda feel like we deserve to lose.

Not a fan of this, partially because of the "we deserve to lose" line for reasons already pointed out, but also because of (b). Not claiming as town is perfectly valid early on, imo. It would help scum as much or more than it would help town. Calling someone scummy for that is bad.

MMT even if you're telling the truth, the possibility that you're not and are lying scum is still worth testing IMO.

And if you're lying town then idk what the heck kind of gambit that is but it's worse than just not claiming.

Could you outline all the points? Why does scum claim survivor and message town. Also why does scum not lie about their identity in message, why does scum not challenge hal when hal comes forward with it. It doesn't make sense.

Hi

I's Snooze's mason partner. Also there is a third person in our unconfirmed masonry, the freely lynchable MT.

We were all given the flavor names of each other as well, though not who was who. MT's name is "Lucy Lipson." Loose Lips sink ships...sure sounds like someone who would tell secrets and get us all caught at this party.

Oh and since MT knows which name was mine now...I'm Cam Eraphone, a watcher. And night one I watched snooze.

merk posted:

That Wallace kill sounds like a Poisoner. An SK Poisoner + Survivor + Scum would make this a tough game. Maybe scum have a one-shot Poison or something.

Only one person visited Snooze on n1 (other than myself): Fisk

Fisk is my vote for the day but first

are we safe to just ##vote? I haven't used this system before but I wouldn't want to end the day early because we have to use ##free lynch or whatever

Once we have enough votes for the free lynch that person is gone but the day continues, and they flip at the end of the day.

da op posted:

If a player does not make 10 posts in a game day, they will be permanently ON NOTICE for the rest of the game.
If a player who is already ON NOTICE does not make 10 substantial posts on any subsequent game day, they will be subject to a FREE LIGHTS-OUT EXECUTION the next day. Said execution will not end the day, and the player’s flip will not be posted until the end of the game day.
These rules will not come into effect if a majority day-ending vote happens more than 24 hours from the game day’s deadline, or the game day lasts less than 24 hours, or I otherwise deem it to be unfair to enforce said posting rules.

oh, you know I was so into my "HAY GUYZ I THINK I FOUND TWO SCUM!" I forgot to tell you what I got from last night

I watched Infinitum and saw nothing.

Picked Snooze n1 because in my experience unconfirmed masonries tend to draw early actions against each other

Picked Infinitum n2 because he had voted on Nep and I was sus on him from how the day ended.

Nep-Nep posted:

If you want to talk about the votes that's fine but I feel like rather than think "Nep seems to not have noticed the other names' meanings" you went to the worst possible conclusion, though thank you for explaining those to me because I really did miss them. Like I said I can't figure out how my name and role relate so :shrug:

I'll explain my vote at the end of d2 and keep it brief. It seemed people didn't have much interest in moving votes, I didn't have a good case against anyone else, I didn't feel like having to check the thread for another 4 hours, and if we NL'ed again I would've been pretty tilted.

Snooze had gained two votes recently and there were other people coming around on voting to her post padding. It's possible it wasn't going anywhere but it may have.

I want to be clear that I'm not sus on you because you voted MMT, I'm sus because of how it happened. Four hours of possible useful discussion gone in three minutes (the time between your and binus' votes).

That's 7 on Malcolm now so that should be a flip at the end of the day.

Would vote Hal over Fisk. My Fisk vote is entirely contingent on him being a poisoner, which devolves into setup spec a bit. But on the other hand, Jimmy is clearly making this a very flavor heavy game so I feel like it's still a good vote.

I reread through the day real quick because I had mostly skimmed the stuff up to my first post. Definitely think MMT left us a breadcrumb to vote Hal out.

I still think they're both scum but I think the case on Hal is stronger.

Ice, do you think my posting has been scummy outside of your result?

I can never get a good read on your posting until like the end of a game when I have more interactions to go off of. I think I just caught you with a lucky night action. Weird that she didn't hide on n1 though.
