I'm trying to explain that I'm a person who wishes to live a very quiet life.

Allow me the luxury of thinking out loud.

Honestly I do think you're possibly town but with what, one, two scum, I'm confident I can throw a vote on you for pressure without risking anything. What I AM worried about is that luxury is quickly diminishing.

So I feel like Gwyn or Birdstrike.


Gwyn never voted for the scum, Gwyn was early and solid on Zets, Gwyn is a hard read (for me).
Birdstrike has just been oddly flippant the whole game and I believe it's in hiding. I had a reread of Day 1 stuff to reassess my feelings on the beet slapfight and Birdstrike was piggy in the middle quipping throughout.

MO is too easy, remaining lurking would be throwing the game, you'd have to make an excuse for the previous days ala TOML in Danganronpa and put your rear end in the game.
Mith hammered but it was almost expected, but I still don't like Mith as scum too well.
Anidav is an eternal red herring

And then it's just you and me Gaspy. Mano a mano, rosso a beardo

my only real thoughts at present is that Strike is putting a huge amount of effort into roleplaying in a game where it's extra meaningless because scum get given fake town roles.

Not usual their approach, either so it's like they're being deliberately obfuscating.

But then, the same thing has been said of me and it's occasionally been wrong.

Exactly. My role is Squirrel. Not a friend of Jojo that a Pillar Man is hiding in, but a squirrel.

My guess is that I got the extra role Bif inserted to stretch the numbers. I'm not complaining about it because Squirrel life is great.

Do we just pick one and see which way the chips fall? For me, Anidav has been doing dumb poo poo since D1 and hasn't done much to redeem himself, although from what I understand that could be situation normal for Anidav. Birdstrike, on the other hand, hasn't been as overt as Anidav but a few small things have made me suspicious, which honestly seems more like scum to me.

I'm all for people being suss on me, especially at this stage of the game where we need to be mindful of everyone.

But you'll want to spell it out because there were hours today where I was talking to myself so I'm not taking any poo poo, especially from people who haven't engaged with the game because that is what scum do.

Also I can understand people being wary of me, what with my absences. I didn't realise I'd be as busy as I was, and if I knew I was I wouldn't have joined the game. I have a lot more time now though.

I guarantee that if I were scum I would not let Gaspy live after he got Beet lynched.

It also gives me a minor reason to think Anidav might not be the scum. He was pretty good last game at choosing targets to take out, no matter his "failings" in the thread.

Gwynplaine

"Let me get this straight..."
No scum who knew what they were doing would kill Gaspy. By his own admission he's got no more concrete leads. All it would do is eliminate me as a scum suspect. Reducing the pool is hardly the scums inclination.

Also I literally shared my character name with no counterclaim. All Pillar men deaths have been "Attempting to possess someone" Not someone already being possessed. Saying I still could be scum after an uncontested name claim simply is not how Pillar men have been written into this mafia.

After I name claimed someone said my character could still be scum but scum flip flavour shows that they have been killed while in the process of possession. Beet was trying to hide as Lisa Lisa in the flip, for example. But Lisa Lisa is still a separate character and probably town.

This is :psyboom: levels of wrong. The character that gets possessed *is* the fake flavour given to scum.

The only flavour claim I would accept as even approaching confirmed is Jojo himself, based on how the last Jojo game played out.

And even then I'd still be wary Bif hasn't switched it up.

In the interests of fairness I will make no further comments, anyone who is confused or curious about flavor in this game should just look over my existing posts in the thread for what is already stated.

Once upon a time, I would have thrown you halfway to the moon for a crack like that.
gently caress, this is a tough game to call.


I have no idea what Anidav's doing, but maybe he's just surprised he's made it this far without being lynched. Gaspy went so hard for Beet since d1 that it's hard to pin him as being the other scum without some serious doublethink.

loool

tbh I think the Bird(strike) might indeed be the word in this game. They're taking pains to be quite active, but not enough to arouse too much suspicion. Put a decent amount of heat on Beet on day 2 (but IIRC this was AFTER Gaspy was really onto Beet) possibly in the hope that it'd make him look very town in the aftermath.

That squirrel's not me, it's like part of Kars or something. I'm the squirrel that gets viciously mauled.

My view is that I'm about 95% sure that Jojo wouldn't be the scum, based on my experiences in the previous Jojo game. But it's not a possibility I can entirely eliminate.

At any rate. I'm going Gwyn or Bird. Aside from Gaspy's "haunted by the beet" theory, Gwyn not killing him out of brotherly love seems high potential. Bird as the lingering squirrely doubt.
