Infinitum posted:

I am all of those things, but it is not a gambit.

I explained myself in my next post after that.

I am maximising the benefit the role can potentially award town.
If town know not to visit me intentionally, it minimises the amount of visits that have to be explained if/when I flip - increasing the chance my death catches scum.

If I don't inform town and a bunch of people visit me, the list becomes muddied - and awards little benefit to town.
was gonna type a response to this post, but then poopacy said exactly what i was gonna

the holy poopacy posted:

I'm not thrilled by this reasoning. Even for a role-heavy game there's not likely to be that many visits and imo outing a minor power role (docs don't have to worry too much about getting caught by this) in exchange for confirming a scum is probably a good trade.

I think optimal play would have been to keep your mouth shut. This is especially true since a game with observation powers may give scum stealth abilities, so letting them know that you're a priority target for ninja kills makes a potentially useful ability into a liability. But it does still provide excellent cover for scum/third party roles.

I think if Infinitum's scum that would be an incredibly ballsy move to pull right at the start of the game and is more likely to backfire and get attention on him Day 1 while also giving himself an incredibly disposable role, meaning he's putting himself up for first lunch.

So yeah, I'm going to believe the claim because the alternative seems like absolute suicide.

this could be a scum post of knowing that infi is town. it's going in the record

Infinitum posted:

Bif I barely remember what I did last game

No, I considered it. I feel the benefit of immediate fullclaim offsets the risk of a ninja-type role if town are aware they shouldn't visit me intentionally - as scum will try to throw whoever's on the list under the bus.

Don't be on the list intentionally is the biggest net gain for town

bro, you failed to consider that town investigative roles might want to take a peek at what's up w the dude who claimed party host on day 1. lmao i mean, if i had an investigative role [which i dont] then i'd 100% be using it on you. and it's not going to be hard for scum to spin a believable fakeclaim about doing exactly that, so.....

So I ask myself how I feel about you unvoting in response to a little bit of suspicion. And the part about already setting up justification to vote Infinitum later even without a scum read for the information doesn't sit well with me.

ia/subrosa do seem to be lining up together (almost too well to be scumbuddies although that's getting into WIFOM territory) but why maerlyn in particular, other than the vote on you?

other than the vote being on me, it was a bad vote with no explanation other than an implication that my post was bad. also seems to be treating the vote as a serious one.

also, she participated in the "content game" proposed by ia which seemed like a forced way to fake game content

I do, and I don't think this should be controversial.

IA is obvious scum

I have spent most of D1 claiming he is obvious scum

at the time he was definitely going down, he got 4 votes in 15 minutes which would have been hammer had I not pumped the breaks. this after.an entire page of people saying "yeah I could vote IA"

those 4 votes were Sandwolf, Plastic, CirclMastr, and SR

do you think that those 4 votes were all townies who were all spontaneously persuaded at that exact moment to turbo without further discussion?

I don't see how that turbo happened without scum votes in on it and given how much momentum was on ia I believe it was a hard bus

i don't get what you're saying here. well, i mean, i do get what you're saying. you're saying the scumteam decided to scumrush their own teammate. but..... why though?

What's your actual case, steakmeat?

i cant say i really have one! but the case on sub rosa reeks of easy target for me, and doesn't resonate w me as scummy nearly as much as people are pushing.

my first choice would be plastic, but seeing as im also personally at risk of being voted out, i'd rather put my vote behind someone on the board
