Dandel Ion you can't force) people to say if they gave you a role. And I wouldn't recommend claiming who gave who roles or what because some roles work better when scum doesn't know what you are (ie Vet, DT, etc)

Why not RNG vote Dandelion?! ;P

If someone could refresh my memory, does mayor have anything special other than choosing the lynch?

Secret Ballot obviously best idea. I'm secretly scum and secretly don't want people to know who my secret buddies and I are secretly voting for.

I've already signaled my role-reciever that I'm his role-creator, if he's smart enough to pick up on it. If he's not, well, that's pretty typical of him. But it's okay.

Also, I think scum BH is better at the game. At least he appears to be better than town BH.

Look, think about your thought process as a townie when you evaluated the three options. You probably rejected the Secret Ballot out of hand barring some weird circumstances because it takes information away from town, then you thought about Mayoral and Instant Majority. Thinking about the strengths and drawbacks of both, you'd note that Mayoral elections produce a different kind of discussion than lynch votes (not necessarily better or worse) and the actual vote itself tends to be about who says they'll use the lynch on whom and who you have a town-read on. Instant Majority sounds dangerous but actually buts the scum under a lot of pressure assuming nobody gets dumb and jumps the gun on the hammer.

But what you don't think about, and I'm certain nobody town aligned thinks about as a main reason not to use mayoral, is the possibility of making a scum player mayor. It's a risk of mayoral, but it's not the reason you wouldn't run it-- after all, if what the mayor does is pick who gets lynched, picking a scum player to be mayor isn't a huge risk. We're not giving powers to the scumteam, and in fact, having a scum under that spotlight could be very helpful to town. From a townie perspective, which any townie will have, you probably want instant majority because it's simple and lets you lynch someone. You want your vote to do something and you want to put pressure on the scum. You don't reject mayoral because a scum might get elected-- this might actually be the best outcome short of a townie get elected and lynching scum. You reject mayoral because instant majority is better and gives you more power to hunt scum.

Oats came into this giving reasoning that comes from a mindset not of townie scumhunting, but of scum shirking responsibility and blending in, and thinking fearfully.

I thought this was pretty obvious, guys

Oatsmaster, most people who have played with me extensively are aware I'm very active and aggressive as both scum and town, and am highly prone to shenanigans as any alignment. I won't comment as to my own guilt. Experience tells me I will do too good a job of prosecuting myself, and convince you that I am guilty - or else you will decide that my prosecution was too half-hearted, and that I am scum. I will remark only this in my defense - that I have never been mislynched as town, and get lynched all the time as scum.

Has anybody filled your personal little criteria of "establishing townieness" yet? Cuz I don't think so.

at this moment yes. if oats was scummier i'd have my vote on him. there's no possible town reason gonzaw would act like he's acting

actually yes nope and nope

gonzaw's listy posting is more like town. he's still the best lynch cause he entered this game playing like scum gonzaw and changed to town gonzaw after i called him out so like that's pretty suspicious

I know you usually to be a gentleman of many words; the Captain of Debates (Cods).

Yet your discourse thus far has been sadly limited, one might say you have given up your place and become the Captain of Rare Pronouncements (Carps).

Is the gentleman not amiable to great discourse with his colleagues?

Cuz he lurks and doesn't say anything useful and/or looking like he's trying to figure the game out.

Both were not things one could attribute him with the game I just played with him, where he was town, so I figure he may well be scum.

Lurking is literally the only reason you've given for wanting to lynch Hassy. So why Hassy, and not CC? Or Sylencia? Or Stutters? If lurking is scummy for one, then it should be scummy for all. Why are you picking him out of the crowd? Context says that if lurking is enough to condemn Hassy as scum, it should be enough to condemn them all.

the issue here iamperfection is that many players in this game have found legit cases to make. I don't think the case on hassybaby is a legit meta case (like say my case on oats) because you're not addressing his mindset of his pattern of play as scum. you're just saying "look, he's posting less, he must be scum" and this is not a legitimate way to play. This is a policy lynch in a room filled with scummy players. We should be hunting scum, not policy lynching. Your refusal to actually read my case only further reinforces my suspicions that you are working against the town

I also don't actually wanna lynch stutters. Just wanted to pressure him into posting.

I find it odd that you seem focused on sylencia as a scumread, but didn't mention or draw anything from what has been the only sylencia-centric exchange in the thread, imo.

Especially given that, if we can trust kurumi, there's some way in which they can check each other, meaning that sylencia may be a bad lynch at this time because we'll be certain/certainish about his alignment later.

I'm not sure I'd have been able to catch crossfire very easily since he was 1-shot lynchproof. I may have mislynched stutters also since he was playing like turd (though I won't make this mistake in the future, seeing how he played this game). If Oats didn't have the hipster vengeful trait and we went into D2 at 7-4 with me alive instead of 6-4 it still wouldn't have been an easy game for town.
