People fake a lot of human interactions, but I feel like I fake them all, and I fake them very well, that's my burden, I guess.

Cube, OA and Keats to a lesser degree HAVE been trying to hunt out scum.

I say lesser degree to Keats because he has a “different” play style.

Let's assume Shwinn is the vote today and flips scum redirector that solely explains the Maer mis-elim.

We would then have confirmation that TMor hasn't killed N1/N2/N3 and FoS didn't kill N3.

I think I should probably target FoS or Keats, or maybe Traj.
I think OA should probably target TMor or Keats, or maybe Traj.

Looking at what TMor and Shwinne have posted today, I really think they are aligned.

I’d really like it if multiple other people would compare what they each have been saying and see what conclusion they come to.

I’m inclined to think Keats is town, but I won’t discount the possibility that Keats is scum, and FoS is town.

But to my point of Shwinne and TMor, both have been reasonably active today, and both have basically called Obama scum or have worked to discredit obamas results, and both have also just lazily sort of thrown suspicion here or there but never really hunted scum.

Obama said yesterday, last game day, that he’d tracked someone to me, but didn’t want to reveal it. Cube now claims to have been that individual.

I don’t see a scenario where Obama is scum and lying about that. Only if Both Cube and Obama are Lying, which seems remarkably unlikely and that would be a town with like no meaningful power roles. If they were both outright lying about that it would be too risky as there would certainly be counter claims.

The only possibility I see is Obama/Cube town, TMor/Shwinne Scum, Likely FoS Scum, less likely Keats.

Why yes the entire situation IS wifom thanks schwinn. I’m open to a schwinn vote but I’m not willing to make a potential scumrush easier by putting my vote there yet.

I don’t believe cube’s claim for a second. There’s no good reason to fail to check Obama after the flip yesterday; scum wasn’t going to kill Obama after he just hard claimed into lunching town. After playing up that anti-town hammering gimmick all game, I’m 100% happy to kill cube.

I don’t buy that Obama just lied and I’m going to assume a scum redirector role. Just fabricating the results leaves too much up to night action chance N2. Not voting there.

Similarly I don’t think Trajan would put themselves on the spot with their defense of Maer if they were scum. Probs not voting there.

Unsure on Keats or TMor atm. I could be talked into either but they’re not my chief suspects.

I was going to talk about how we shouldn't take Cube's word as face value considering it's mylo and there won't be any consequences for lying. Because I think he's town. But now that you are sussing him FoS, yeah it should be something we are factoring in. Don't take anything for granted.

Then that would leave the town affectively without a cop (if cube is lying) that doesn’t make much sense to me.

The only thing I’ve seen cube do today is publicly surmise what he and OA should do in the night. I don’t see town benefitting from that. I don’t see it as extremely scummy either as I can see logic where discussing that makes sense.

One of the first things cube said today was that they didn’t cop Obama because they thought they would be the kill target, which is just nonsense. Obama was by far the most important person to be copped and Cube is normally very cognizant of considerations like that,

did you (1) think you had such certainty that i was scum that this was not a risk or (2) harbor some uncertainty but figure it was fine to possibly sink your team on it without their agreement to that risk? There is no third option if you are town.

Option (1) is asinine - you do not, in fact, have that degree of certainty.

Option (2) is being very bad at being a team player.

Option 3 is that you are scum.

Since I do not think you are asinine or a bad team player, I think it's (3).

The fact that you DIDnT get scum rushed proves you are scum. Why would scum rush one of their own, when it would take two town to clench it? I am town, I have a vote on you. Takes three to hammer. If you are town scum would,have had the chance to scum rush. No scum rush happened, so you must be scum.

Keats did the same thing early in the day but supposedly babysat their screen. I don't think Traj looks as bad as you're saying.

Huh. Are you wrong or scum?

You thought OA was the person most likely to be scum last night, but now you think they're less scummy than:
- Traj
- Keats
- TMor (the person I actually checked last night)

What about OA's posting today changed your mind? The result of: "I saw FoS do nothing last night?" It seems weird to push me for having a position on OA last night that is similar to the position you have on OA right now.

If you mean why I think you should have checked, it's because then we'd have soft confirmation of Obama being redirected or faking the result. That's more valuable that scanning basically anyone else.

I started working through the combinations but I honestly didn't think through ALL of that last night and it blows up to a whole lot more possibilities than I was originally expecting.
OA's alignment, Cube targeting OA, OA dying at night, Cube's target dying at night, Cube being redirected, and Cube's actual results. It's not 32, but it's more than just 8.

It's still really weird to me that TPC was the NK over OA. Who was TPC suspicious of yesterday?

I agree with tmor and think it's a choice between Maer and cube today. Personally I'm more interested in Maer because I think it can give us insight into the potential roles in the game, as well as trajan's weird posts.

Cube is also another very solid option though because he seems to be trying to pull some sort of chameleon act with this hammer gimmick and taking on a different attitude about it every day that just obscures reading him and also doesn't provide any benefit to town.

Jul 11, 2002

for anyone that isn't me and trajan (using that fancy theory of mind here), you have to assume that either me or trajan is scum due to the lack of a scumrush

it would be impossible for both of us to be town from your perspective

i'd say you should treat this as a thunderdome btwn us, but that doesn't do anything for us numerically since there's 4 town/3 scum, so for any given town if you pick another player randomly there's a 50% chance of them being scum anyway
