If scum didn't have that strongman shot, I'd be more inclined to consider the gambit, since getting rid of the JK without wasting a NK might be worth it. But since they already have a way around the BP, I'm skeptical.

Here's another thing to think about. If we let a duel happen, and the PR doesn't "go to" scum, that COULD have the effect of keeping me alive, since scum strongman only goes through one layer of protection, so if they shoot me knowing a mysterious, possibly protective, PR is out there then they're taking the risk I won't die, so they might just shoot someone else.
Unfortunately, if DatSwan is scum that means they shot you last night, and so you've used up your BP

Huh? No. I mean they may have, but I JK'd Swan, so he could have shot anyone

Oh yes course, DatSwan was the shooter....
Clearly I'm doing so well at this game...
Although even if DatSwan is scum, another scum could have shot you

I am down to lynch DS, but shouldn't we wait and see if he comes up in the duel? Then we can lynch him and maybe get a PR.

The idea that scum!joseph claims a result on town!joth is nutso bonkers.

It's not nutso bonkers. Worst case scenario, you out the JK who you had no idea was the JK and trade 1-for-1 with a vanilla townie, which is bad, but not terrible. Best case scenario, you out the JK who you were already suspecting might be the JK and nobody has any reason to be suspicious and you might even get town points.

If joseph thought he was a top lynch candidate today I could maybe see it, but I don't think that was the case

Considering Swowl was a potential NK target I wish we could find a better lynch for today than him...

Or maybe we miss the chance to lynch him because someone else is in the duel and it mysteriously gets voted up...

Counterpoint: if swan was scum who perfomed the kill then everyone else is a potential night kill target

Swan-Eddie-Robz scum team is strangely compelling to me.

Hey, man I’m a Swowl sympathizer.

I just think the odds of you being the selected NK/Swan doing the NK are lower than Swowl being the NK.

Scum choosing to NK you is weird.

I could see a world where they went after Swowl.

So the conundrum I am in is: Swowl was the 1/3 of scum who targeted, or he was the person that was the NK.

You said it yourself, you targeted Swan because you were trying to use he protective part of it.

To be clear, I don’t necessarily trust Swowl, I just think there are better calls here.

Yeah, that all makes sense. I think the best use of the power is to target someone who you think is either obvtown or deep scum. It makes you more likely to hit, but it makes hitting less useful.

Still I think if Swan is also being scummy than the JK thing starts to be extra points in favor. And people are finding his response to the whole situation scummy.

"You shouldn't kill someone for being insane," a crew member interjected.

"... I guess. Well, well know that in a fight of Rats against a giant church bell, the big loser is the ability to say, 'Hey, hey, hey, I'm insane' without going down, I guess, as an easy target. As a side note-- my friend said that the biggest difference in his life is that he can't use my phone when he's on the job."

So the crew goes to bed. When they wake up, they find themselves in...

An Alternate Reality

The story begins as a world where, instead of having four seasons of a season, there are three.

jk, everything was normal.

Someone said— and I tend to agree— that his response to the claims seemed like an attempt to throw some doubt on me and Joseph being treated as ICs, which is a very scummy reaction.
