Well. This is all very interesting. So scum blocks Joseph somehow (either that, or Joseph is scum, but this seems like incredibly dangerous play for scum). This means we should look closely at unconfirmable roles and/or silverspawn.

Witherweaver should really claim by now. I have no idea why he thinks keeping this stuff to himself would be beneficial in any way.

I mailed XP asking him to mail me back who he wanted me to mail on N2.

People can mail you back?

Yes.  I didn't want to claim that initially, so that we had an ace up our sleeve in that regard, but I realized there's not a lot of benefit in hiding it.

chairs - can you confirm that Awaclus targeted you?

Also yes.

As far as the Joseph poison thing.  My initial understanding of his power was that scum attacking a player would negate both poison and attack.  However, if Joseph is telling the truth, then I think it is probably just an attack negates poison, but poison does not negate the attack.  So XP still died because he was attacked twice.

Joseph, is that correct?

okay, this is interesting. I did actually target Joseph tonight - but I didn't name XP, so it should not have stopped him (reminder, I can only roleblock against a number of people, in this case 3). I named faust, IG, and myself.

and before anyone asks, I chose to do this because

1) I didn't want to be poisoned
2) my power isn't actually that great
3) IG and faust are my biggest town reads, and I think poisoning them would have been a mistake, but I could see Joseph doing it
4) I'm not actually convinced Joseph is town based on his role. I could easily see him being scum with an X-shot modifier to his poisoning, and as an alternative to his attack

needless to say, my power shouldn't have changed anything tonight, as I did not name XP.

I agree with silverspawn.  I think he used his power in the most pro-town way that he could think of.  Sure, a bit selfish, but I don't fault him for that.  I think scum is more likely to try to play of the self-sacrificial for the benefit of town act.

It's pretty likely that one of Joseph/silver is lying IMO, and I think it's silver.

I don't have a problem with him using his power to protect himself and his town reads. Admitting that he targeted Joseph without naming XP is what sounds suspicious, because it's exactly what scum who actually roleblocked Joseph tonight would claim.

WW, remind me again why it is pro-town that you don't claim your Governor target.

1 shot-Duplicator: At night, you may spend this to use any Role twice.

I'm pretty sure you just violated a rule of this game.
Yes I did. As a result,  I'm hated for today only. (I was waiting for mod permission to reveal this)

I don't get this. why should I name XP?

I think those actions would be pro-town, but he could have made them up. I really wanted silverspawn to claim before me, but unfortunately, it didn't look to be happening.

You came up with the XP plan. I'd think you kind of want him alive so that it goes through.

Well, if not, someone lied about their role. I'm thinking of a plan to out any liars.

I'm not arguing that town!you should have done something different. I'm arguing that this is exactly what scum!you should claim, and that's why the claim is suspicious.
