I cast lots for I Ching and got Jie:

quote:

The superior man, in accordance with this, constructs his (methods of) numbering and measurement, and discusses (points of) virtue and conduct.

So I will be doing a lot of mechanics and strategy discussion instead of scum hunting. Sorry! Them's the broken and unbroken lines.

Busted.

For what its worth, I am a town power role. I'd recommend saving me for at least 2 nights. Strongly suspect kaschei to be scum. ##vote Kaschei I will explain later.

Is this about my immaculate posting or my cursèd name?

Another game with two miller claims btw, this is the new thing these days, so it seems~

Molly is so credulous of Toal but it doesn�t feels scummy. I always think Toal is scum apparently so I�m gonna give that a rest on D1 at least.

who claimed miller?

Grandicap's posting crimes:

Grandicap posted:

I am here and foresee the doom of this fine Faire. And it is Toalpaz who will engineer it's fall.
Brimstone, fire and misfortune are the future... unless we rally to a common cause!

It's funnel cakes. The best of all Faire foods. If we all eat enough funnel cakes we will be too bloated to do any killings, or at least to sleepy to care about it.
Game solved!

The best Faire food is steak on a stake. I acknowledge the danger of giving all players sharp pieces of wood but the advantages are too immense.

Grandicap posted:

I have positive feelings about Crumbum, but I've never played with them before. It just feels like that level of verbal dirarrhea is hard to fake and scum would be less apt to go that route for fear of getting their poo poo everywhere.
I am not ready to make a town call on them, but it is only a hop away.

Grandi has played many mafias. No one acts so completely differently as scum and town that you can tell them apart by postcount on D1. He knows this so he actually puts a "this is not a read" qualification on the end!

Grandicap posted:

Catching scum is more important than saving yourself. Saving a known town quantity is better than saving yourself. Stopping a kill is way better than saving yourself.

this is good technical analysis and no one cares, mentioning it because:

Grandicap posted:

Based on the OP I would assume 5 item distributers in the game. I would guess 3 town, 2 scum, 4/1 wouldn't surprise me.

Bold added, but the assumption I made here is that if the number of remaining players == all players, then all items are distributed.

[pretend I quoted all his speculative posts here]
This is bad analysis and no one cares. The common thread is that Grandi is talking about poo poo no one cares about, because posters aren't scum!

I think grandi is tryharding scum who is amused to praise Crum's "verbal dirarrhea" while spewing a slightly classier version of same

i very much want to yeet grandi

for the benefit of crumbum and molly who i don't think know grandi, i will say that grandi, when town, is a top tier scum-hunter

so, in the event he's town we would be yeeting an asset

shwinnebego posted:

back to ##vote yuming, a tragedy because she's consistently very fun to play with but she is scum and my personal fondness for scum is orthogonal to the murder imperative

Are you of two minds about everyone ?

Grandicap was like 40% of the posts and 80% of the words on page 4 when I grew suspicious, and making a big show about thinking about the setup that amounted to "read the OP guys"

If that's not tryharding I don't know what to tell you, it was at least a big dollop of forced posts that rubbed me as scum

Someone got a dangerous Hider last night, please hold onto it (I know who you are). You are in no danger for now.

I gave someone a dangerous Roleblock N0, if that person still has it we (well, you and the person with the Hider) can work together to get someone killed.
If you used it I think you should claim your target, if you still have it then let's use the dark power of cursed inventions to get a [chance of] a communal vig.

Oh just like, Yuming had said their items have a chance to fail. I wonder if some items have a chance to backfire and kill the user.

Before I give the details I would like people to ask themselves if yuming's suspicions bear scrutiny given what I've claimed publicly. My role can kill but I'm asking the item recipients to participate in a scheme to cooperatively decide who is likely to die.

Does claiming d1 really seem like the only thing town would do with a weak killing role?

MockingQuantum posted:

Fwiw I don't think it makes you look particularly scummy, it's maybe a weird play to wait til d2 to say anything about it, but it could be a weird town play

Do you buy yuming's basis for voting me given all that? Does it seem like she's thinking like how a town player would want to use a weak killing role? I don't think it does.

Start of day. It doesn't seem fake to me. Why would it be fake?

Rhymes With Clue posted:

On mobile. I got a message from a ghost, shwinnebego. His message to the thread is that he has confidence in town, despite D2, and believes town will leverage D1 events to find the truth. Believes he was somewhat hasty in scumreading yuming, but more scumreading crumbum, and says don't underestimate molly.

This is paraphrased and is shwinn's thoughts not mine, although I share some of them.

# ¿ Jul 6, 2024 03:09

kaschei: Oct 25, 2005

it's a VERY weak killing role, odds of death are low unless items are stacked together. There's a check at day/night transitions and when an item is used.

It's relatively safe to hold or use a single cursed item, but if we could get 3 onto someone the odds of their dying would be sizable. If there's only 1 then it's likely just giving scum powers, 2 kind of marginal, hence not saying anything until today.

Sandwolf had the n0 roleblock and should :justpost:

about what happened with that

Also whoever had the N0 doctor should claim it.
