Re PPS: I could be wrong, because I don't remember ever actually seeing a governor act, but I didn't think they got to see a flip before making their decision. Like the idea of a pardon is that the executive ignores the true innocence/guilt of the subject and says you are free. Think about it, a governor that gets to know the flip before their decision creates 2 ICs the moment they use their power (barring counterclaim), and I don't think that's what happens.
Gah! Swowl, you are killing us!
It's not swowl killing you scum, it's town doing it...
You calling WCD bad? Shame.
Also, I was feeling clever with my little post after being voted out.
I made it so it could be read as scum from this perspective but after I flipped you could reread everything from the perspective of me being Town and it would make sense.
It was funny.
I was laughing.
(Finding my partners = other town)
That being said, feels to be bad form to not come clean now in case someone can save me.
I doubt anyone will, but it’s the thing to do.
I saw that. It was funny. Not funny enough to lol though.
Okay I'm just going to assume you're town now. What are your scumreads, hyper and...?
Why assume he's actually town though? If there's potential for someone to act in twilight (presumably something like a governor type of role), why should we just make that assumption because he said "lol jk"? If you are just setting your own personal expectations regarding the impending(?) flip, then fine, but there was nothing in his post hammer comments that actually seems particularly townie to me. Like if you were hammered, said good luck to your scumbuddies, and then the thread realized there is at least a chance someone can do something in twilight (governor comes to mind), of course you're going to say yeah the townies are my partners.
To be clear, I still think Eddie is going to flip scum. One thing that was maybe kind of sort of mentioned by Ash once, but the poison doctor that can kill strikes me as a scummy claim, just like Joth claiming RB. Like, yeah there are town RBs, but they are much less common than scum RBs, so an RB is often a "safe" fake claim for scum. Either they can claim their real power or they can assume they probably aren't going to get counterclaimed (depending on the game/setup obviously). In a similar vein, a poison doctor claim has a lot of advantages for scum. The way Eddie described his role, he has cover for being caught killing someone later in the game once. He has cover if he is seen trying to kill someone but someone else protects them. If poison isn't even in the game, it adds confusion for parsing night actions. I mean, we haven't even seen more than one kill in a night yet. Simplest solution is just scum has one NK, or if multiball each faction can only shoot on alternating nights. Yeah, protection is totally possible, but to have happened two nights in a row in a game this big would be something else.
I don't know. If there's anyone out there that would have the choice to reverse the exile, this is NOT the time to do that imho...
ppe 3
I see I've been quoted. Neat.
Hmm, I kinda wanna hammer Uncle...should I reread before that? Probably?
I have a feeling everyone's waiting on me...
@MiX
Either tell people I’m Town or kill me.
Also, PPS is worth keeping around. His running commentary on my play makes for a more fun game. If he's mafia, he'll slip before the end of the game.
What do you guys have to say about Ash and Didds TRing me?
So...uncle could have messed up his fakeclaim here.
...were you to be NK'd with no chance to claim town would still be unaware of a poison element. This seems unlikely to me...
Why did you ask me whether my flip would confirm poison? If green, it doesn’t matter, and if Red it doesn’t matter. My answer it irrelevant always.
Are you gonna?
I doubt I will today.
I announced the bit that woulda been sad if it died with me.
Hey, people, what’s the plan?
PPS, who are you settling on for this kill?
c. During the Night, only players on the Active Timeline will be allowed to take actions.
From the rules post. Seems pretty explicit to me. If this only applies to town, I'd say this is a bastard game.
We know there's at least 2 scum in forward timeline since chairs died (unless someone wants to claim they killed him?), so it's not impossible for there to only be 1 scum in reverse.
MIx, can you explain this to me? How do we know that?
He was also the universally agreed “scummiest vote” on M.D.
This is the line of reasoning joth tried to use - voting for mathdude was towny.
But he was town.
Assumption? That's what math died to tell us.
Right, okay, it's coming together for me now. We know it's not 2 in Mix, Cube, Gloobie, Awac. Chances of timeline containing 3 scum seem vanishingly small to me too. Chances of 1 not so much but 2 seems like a reasonable assumption.
Knowing my alignment I now see the POE to Eddie. I'm still stumped as to why scum would pop chairs, though, knowing it forces a 1v1. That would require some pretty adept commitment to the next day's strategy, I think.
