But why the fuck would he fake-claim as scum if he was SURE there was going to be a counterclaim? :/ Imagine if supersoft said "Vigs get their bullets refunded", which outs one of them as scum, then he'd be utterly screwed, and unless he got that info from the hosts previously sloosh wouldn't have known about it. And like someone said nobody knew Foo' was scum (unless a minion has a rolecop ability or something, but the point is that town doesn't know about it) so Foo's flip wouldn't really incriminate him much. If he was scum he'd just shut up, keep lurking and have more chances to live than by fake-claiming what he did. Meh, I'd say we just forget about his claim and wait to see what he contributes from now on. | ||

Well...I actually didn't understand anything of it so I assumed he was. | ||

Why plant the idea in your head. It was clear to everyone that he was the genesis of the idea and if you did manage to lynch Sandroba you could rightly point back to Chez as the source. Again, it implicates him. Further more if he was the genesis of the idea of matching roles, why not keep Sandroba around? I mean as you say Sandroba's flip implicates Chez with his own logic so why even suggest it? I fail to see the motive here. | ||

(1) In his original post, Sloosh claims On July 22 2012 14:05 slOosh wrote: I am a Crazed Employee - basically a delayed 1 shot vig, and I targetted Foolishness last night. Supersoft comes in, claims the shot as well. It's... 12 hours before Sloosh returns to post On July 23 2012 01:51 slOosh wrote: The oddness of the 1.5 cycles as a condition for shooting has been discussed. But the time delay on the claim hasn't. It's just weird. Why claim delayed vig as scum, then come back after 12 hours and claim a really odd delay restriction? You can even speculate on multiple levels--does the delay show townie filling in missing information, or does it show scum receiving a message about how to fakeclaim the shot? If a boss wasn't sending messages right at the start of the cycle, but waiting for the flip to write a message, then the delay could have a scummy explanation, boss writes the message, gets it to sloosh, who then claims that specific role.Quick post before I can properly play at night: I can only shoot when no mafia have died for 1.5 cycles, so basically I can only start shooting night 2. Didn't bother clarifying beyond "delayed" because it's 1 shot and it went off, apologies if I worded it ambiguously. I explained my shot because it was the natural thing to do? (2) On July 22 2012 14:05 slOosh wrote: At this point, foolishness had flipped, so mafia KNEW that there was a traitorous employee. However, BH had also been killed, so it's not like mafia was trying to draw out the traitor in order for for BH to pop him (BH's role PM doesn't indicate whether his kill is night-only, as far as I read it). So either this is town wanting that guy to claim and let us know what messages he received, or this is scum finding out one of his buddies is a traitor, and can't help but add thoughts on that because it's a topic of serious concern.Lastly, I think that the traitorous employee should claim. As I understand it it's like a self-aware miller who wins with town but numbers count with scum. Since mafia have to kill all town they are torn having a "confirmed town" alive and wasting their 1 KP on a useless kill (doesn't count to their wincon), and have lost their means of instantly killing him, plus the possible additional benefits of seeing scum strategies and redacted knowledge through outed PMs can be huge. | ||

I don't know why he does what he does, that's a byproduct of his playstyle which you're defending. My point is that he did put that idea in my head, he did back off it when Sandroba flipped, he did support the Sand lynch but he did not push the wagon. These are all facts, in the thread. | ||

My point is that he did put that idea in my head, he did back off it when Sandroba flipped, he did support the Sand lynch but he did not push the wagon. These are all facts, in the thread. I never said he didn't do anything. I said I fail to see the mafia motive behind them. Like I said earlier, he knew my role name which could have caused my misslynch (speculation but it is a bad name). Instead he chose to work out what my role does and then keep a secret, in a way that benefited me and ultimately town. Why would Chez do this as mafia and not as town? The same goes for his crazy shit with you, if you don't know why Chez does stuff then you don't know why he would do it as scum or as town. Maybe you need to explain it from the beginning with a clear through line explaining how his actions benefit mafia. I am defending Chez because of his actions towards me and his reads. | ||

Tell me EXACTLY what happened when he "figured out your role name". Tell me how you know he "knew" your role name, and tell me why you think that it could have caused your mislynch. | ||
