No sk means a fourth scum.

I don't think Hal is scum. The vibes say town.
I was very suspicious of Keane D1 but then he played in a towny way. Could be scum.
Sand and Zoya could be town or scum and I wouldn't be surprised. I don't really see any difference between their town and scumgame, except for something from Sand that thankfully hasn't come up this game.

I'm not scum, but all I can offer in my defense is my voting/scumhunting record and dashing good looks.

Why is a 4th scum materially different from an SK?

Whats the difference here?

The difference is that scum is not a role, it's an alignment.

There can easily be a SCUM-Jailer, SCUM-Rolecop, SCUM-Backup or SCUM-Death-Masonizer (this one is much less likely, though).

While if there was a sk, it'd be SELF-Serial-Killer.

so you want to kill ... the jailor, lol

we have 5 right now, once we yeet we'll have 4

if i'm the yeet, that means you have, taking all roles at the word, a BG, a cop, a ghost mason, and a vanilla townie

if you don't immediately catch the real killer tomorrow, you misyeet, and you're down to 3... even if you now know exactly who the killer is, you now, as the only prot, a BG, have to guess who they're gonna kill, sacrificing yourself instead of them

oops you still died, though, so the killer wins, and the game ends

bad ending

Yeah, true, I am influenced by your desperation to keep creating scenarios where I am scum to satisfy your ego (or advance your scum/SK aganeda)

you yeet me tonight, and the game doesn't end

in any of these scenarios, hal has to try to guess who the SK is gonna kill. whether he succeeds or not is kind of here nor there, so i won't keep throwing it in as a variable, i'll just consider "the SK kills hal" and "hal guesses the kill target and jumps in front of the bullet" as identical, since, they are identical in the end

if keane is the SK:
  • if he kills hal, its wolo/keane/sandwolf. no one is cleared, because there is no jail. keane says he checked wolo and got SK... sandwolf is kingmaker
  • if he kills sandwolf, it's wolo/keane/hal. keane says he checked wolo and got SK... hal is kingmaker
  • if he kills wolo, he's foolish, but it's keane/hal/sandwolf. he probably argues it was hal after all, and sandwolf is kingmaker
  • boy things really suck in every possible scenario if keane is the sk huh
  • there is no scenario where town survives a misyeet

if wolo is the SK:
  • if he kills hal, its wolo/keane/sandwolf. keane maybe catches wolo. sandwolf is kingmaker
  • if he kills sandwolf, it's wolo/keane/hal. keane maybe catches him. hal is kingmaker
  • if he kills keane, spiderman mexican standoff
  • there is no scenario where town survives a misyeet

if sandwolf is the SK:
  • if he kills hal, it's wolo/keane/sandwolf. keane clears wolo, but keane cleared sandwolf before. they probably yeet sandwolf
  • if he kills keane, its wolo/hal/sandwolf. spiderman mexican standoff, wolo probably gets yeeted
  • if he kills wolo, keane is kingmaker

if hal is the SK:
  • im sick of typing this out its all the same scenario basically

the point is that with a BG in the mix instead of a jailor, you can't announce your target like i am doing. and there's zero confirmation that you did what you said you would do, because a BG visit is not confirmable. jailing is confirmable. it doesn't work with you alive and me dead, hal

it doesn't really matter, the only difference would be that if YOU'RE scum, keane will assuredly not be able to catch you via his rolecop. unless you're also a mason, in which case, he catches you in a lie (VT) and you'd be dead tomorrow

Why me over Sandwolf/Keane/Wolo though? They offer no real protection to anyone. There are unquestionably proven actions at this point that show at least one night I was bodyguarding a player instead of killing, that can't even really be in doubt at this point. Plus the other things I have done/said that don't like up with stuff an SK would do.

your protection doesnt matter for the numbers game cuz you die for it, so its a complete wash

unfortunately BG does nothing for us at this gamestate

the reason why you over anyone else is that if there's an SK, the missing deaths make way way way more sense if it was you than anyone else, who would have simply had to have had extraordinarily bad luck in choosing targets

but i think wolo is doing his best to change the plan right now into us voting him today, so you might be safe!

if we yeet wolo and the game continues, then it's presumably one of a scum-aligned death masonizer, scum-aligned rolecop, scum-aligned jailor

if it's me i can't kill without sandwolf immediately alerting us that i didnt jail him

if it's keane he kills hal me/sand clear eachother and we yeet him, or he kill


...

,,,,,,,

if we yeet wolo and the game continues, i jail sandwolf, hal BGs me, and keane ... does whatever he wants

the literal only scenario, if hal is town, is that hal dies

cant kill sand, he's immune

can't kill me, you kill hal instead

i can't be the killer cuz sand would notice

sand cant be the killer cuz he's jailed

if we yeet wolo now and the game continues, AND hal is town, the killer loses

if we yeet wolo now and the game continues, and hal is the killer, it's trickier

the last 26 posts gave me whiplash. I don’t think it’s Hal. Wolo does feel like the only one who’s out but he’s also advocating to kill himself so lmao. Keane feels good but he also feels kinda calculating here, but there’s like a dozen eliminations he could just go with.

Me: jail Sandwolf


if hal is town the town cannot lose

if hal is the killer it's more complicated but i'm not gonna strain my braincells to write out the dozen scenarios when wolo is selfvoting already

if keane is the killer he has to kill hal, and then die, or we just drag this out for an infinite number of days with no-executes

if sandwolf is the killer he can't do anything because of jail

if i am the killer i can't kill without sandwolf catching me
