I'm currently looking at who are the most likely alternatives if for some reason Sandwolf is not in fact the last scum

Is someone(Tommu?) positing that Tommu’s scenario didn’t come to pass because it wasn’t the first lunch?

I don’t understand how that’s relevant? Yeah? Of course the day ends on hammer??

Sandwolf you sound slightly confused.

If Tommu's role worked exactly as written, then on D2 we would've gotten a third ability to hammer. One extra given by ASF's ability, one given by Tommu's. And the deadline for that would've been 23:00, but Mr. Steak confirmed end of day before that.

The clarification is apparently that, whatever happens, this game includes a limitation that there will never be more than two hammers in a day. Who knows, maybe there's even another ability out there that can also extend somehow.

hm, actually... I'm feeling tempted to go for ASF after all, just noticed he never even changed his vote from me, from way back when I was trying to prime the minibomb. Even though he did make an appearance afterwards and there was plenty of interesting stuff going on.

he's lurking more than I first thought, and that vote on me when I asked for it does look more like maybe he's scum trying to find some way to engage with no risk

##vote ASF

Side-note: This vote was first on ASF, followed immediately by Scumalong. Would scum dare plant vote 1 and 2 on their own bud? So yeah, let's say Bif is close to confirmed town in my book.

Then Lumpen comes with vote #3 and, here to pump the breaks:

Sandwolf posted:

Yeah this but also ASF is probably not a huge boon regardless of alignment. I agree with you saying they’d probably lurk no matter what, but like you said, that becomes a greater detriment the farther we go

Looks a little suss.

yeah, that's a nice bit of extra evidence. Sandwolf coming in to hammer Tommu when ASF was also at -1 before is the main thing that got me suspicious of him.

He's definitely my best bet today, but I do still think there's a very small chance I'm wrong and our whole dance around the binus votes could've been an absolutely hilarious comedy of errors. So while I got the time, I'd like to try and work out best I can who's the next best choice after Sandwolf, cause I most likely won't be around to work it out tomorrow if there
is one.

So far I think the next best bet IS. Not just for the lack of claim, but because he could've been trying to set up that hammer on Tommu, arguing for lunching him instead of ASF. If Sandwolf barging in with the hammer turns out to not be scum, I'm looking at IS who was playing it more cautious and maybe trying to get someone else to do it so the spotlight didn't fall on him.

I’m sorry I guess I am not a smart person because I still have no idea how this bears any impact on Tommu’s role, this all feels very, I dunno, obvious? Like yes, the day ends at hammer. If the day is extended to include an extra lunch, the hammer on that ends the day.

I don’t know what the limitation of two hammers in a day has to do with anything? I would ask the mod but this feels like..sensitive gameplay info, I’m just totally lost

The limitation of 2 hammers per day is the only reason Tommu hasn't been caught in a straight up lie. When Tommu's deathproof stack was used up (and Mr. Steak said it was end-of-day), the deadline had not arrived yet. Tommu's role claim is that the day would continue until deadline upon his deathproof stack being used up (and a potential 3rd hammer could happen). The mod clarification is the only thing resolving that contradiction.

like Tommu obviously does have a deathproof ability at the least, this extra poo poo about whether it extends the deadline or not doesn't really matter or indicate anything about his alignment.

The specific thing I asked him to say would, according to my logic, unambiguously confirm him as scum or not.

So you’re saying the only reason Tommu’s scenario hasn’t happened is because when we voted him, his deathproof didn’t activate because it would have caused a third lunch, so to speak, and there can be no more than two hammers / day?

HUH?

A scenario where Tommu is scum and has mechanics to change his alignment (be they exactly the ones he mentioned or others) is super loving weird.

Bifauxnen
Aug 12, 2010

the bit about his alignment potentially changing is more interesting though, of course. But proving that true would basically just confirm him as 3P and he already sounds pretty firmly that way anyway. If he's just lying scum, why would he even mention the poo poo about it extending the deadline, just to make himself sound like a liar?

The deathproof activated but the "day continues until its actual deadline" did not, because of the hard-limit of 2 per day.

This seems to imply if he was hammered, his deathproof would activate, and the “continue on to deadline” would simply immediately trigger since we’d already be there also at deadline.

His ability is protected from activating because of a mod rule on 2 hammers a day?

What?!

So theoretically if we tried to lunch Tommu on the 2nd lynch, every day, he’d be unlunchable and his role would never trigger??
