Turns out I can't attempt to do stuff for which I don't have the resources It still says that other assignments may exist. Interesting rayn takes that to mean a second scum team exists for sure though. | ||

Can I ask you the same question Stutters? You. I'm pretty slow to roll out reads but your intro posts have said nothing but came off as you trying to not be identified as a lurker. I don't like it. | ||

I'm town aligned in Black Mesa also. I'm like 99.9% certain Onegu is town due to this wording "I win with town, but it tells me to be careful in qt as apature science may have infiltrated it. In the QT we know of a 3P but he claims his wincon is something he could work with either town or scum and still achieve. | ||

And Stutters backed it up. So if Onegu would flip not-what-he-claimed, we're sure Stutters is that too, right? Are there no more town aligned people in BM who can support them? Or would it be bad for them to claim? GN too. I don't understand what you're saying about Onegu not flipping what he claimed. Can you explain? | ||

Nha. Onegu is a good kill atm. I feel it in my bones. I'd agree with you if BM was doing anything productive. However between accomplishing nothing at all(practically just him and I posting) and the speculation that BM is a scum group I don't think it made any discernable difference except clearing the air and revealing a 3p which I think was a net positive. That is a pro-town move imo. | ||

Yi always was a favorite of new players(got my first penta on beta Yi lol) and I remember him asking a bunch of questions when the LoL mafia thread popped up. More seriously though he did say he could work with town or scum so we might want him to explain what he means in BM before trying to out him. | ||

It wasn't so much a strawman argument as it was me making fun of your read. I'm clearly town. My only point was Oats read isn't worth following unless Geript flips scum and then if there is a drop in KP it looks really bad for you. | ||

If the green check on him is still anonymous, I'm starting to really doubt it given how little shiao has actually done since getting it. Town dt shouldn't claim yet - for sure - but I don't think we should be ignoring shiao because of the anonymous green check. It isn't anonymous, just hasn't been said who checked in the thread in case BM doesn't have a scum in it. Without saying too much to reveal their identity, sanity hasn't been confirmed. | ||

But all the people in the QT know the actual name of the person who claimed the one-shot DT check? i guess that becomes interesting if they turn up dead... anyway what do you make now of the hiropro/third party claim thing? do you think hiro is actually in blackmesa? In order of how you asked things Yes, anyone in the QT knows who claimed the cop check. If that person dies one of us will reveal who did it. Can't say more currently on that but the check seems very genuine, only question is sanity. I don't know if Hiro is in BM however I think we know the identity of Yi (not VE). His answer before the 24h mark in d3 will determine if we reveal his presumed identity. Can't say more on it but he can be very pro-town if it is Yi and if he doesn't cooperate we can ruin his wincon(or a separate 3p if it isn't Yi). Sorry for being so non-descript, but the use of BM has become a lot more apparent after the n1 actions. Do you know who "bunny" might be referring to? | ||

The cop check on ShiaoPi wasn't a 1 shot, they lied in case there was scum in BM. 2. There is a sleeper cell in this game. He added me night 1 and asked me to shoot "bunny". I assumed that Austin was the sleeper after that picture and attempted to shoot Ala. Either he was proted or Austin is not the 3p. Take that how you will. | ||

He recruited me, he knows who I am, I don't know him (assuming Austin now tbh). He can send a message at the start of the night and we vote on who to shoot.If we agree, we fire 1kp at them. If he's a compulsive recruiter tomorrow night we vote with 3 and all have to agree, etc. Ala was my vig of choice and I missed the part of him being immune since I haven't been super active. | ||

Also, why did you choose me to add n1 knowing how transparently I play as town and my general lack of missing crumbs/low activity level. There was no way I would have caught on to the bunny thing without an in thread interaction and I feel like you would have realized that. And just so it's out there and you understand this, sorry if this messes up your plan but I'm not going to be shooting just off of your suggestion unless I believe that kill benefits town. So hopefully your wincon can | ||

It was interesting to see something that just floats around like that and never really really takes off, but is always on the back burner. solid reasoning. I noticed something similar reading him.

Stutters, if your target is shot and I am dead, then ... look at my list. The guy who is SEVEN slots beneath your target is very likely mafia. You will know why based on my flip. To the other guy, if your target dies, something is screwy, because stutters is almost almost almost certainly town. So you don't think my target is scum then? | ||

First: I learned Cakepie was Prof Oats last night. He got role copped last night by Yi. No grand conspiracy. Saying what I did was to see reactions. Second: It seems like a near certainty scum have an insider in BM so revealing this will only help since I expect to die anyway tomorrow night. This is based on Risen being shot. I announced in BM that I was attempting to check Risen immediately after his claim to verify my sanity. Coupled with another thing I can't reveal without giving away the mechanic it seems pretty likely there is a scum. I am Doctor Kliner. I'm a list based cop with two conditional OTU checks in addition to the normal one dictated by list positions. I haven't used either OTU yet, but won't say more on that until they're burned because I don't want scum to plan around it. Obviously I'm asking for protection tonight (without an attached RB)to at least use my most powerful check. If I'm perm-RBd now it still frees others to use their roles. | ||

First, I don't think Cakepie is the other trainer. I'd expect Oak to be a 3p or town who interacts in some way with the battles. I didn't expect to die, but if I did it was relatively inconsequential because there was no way Onegu and I were both dying and on flip it would have been obvious I was talking about myself. With the near confirmation of scum in black mesa and Onegu dying this is the perfect time to claim because I'm dead without protection and I lost my synergy which was the only reason I withheld using my OTUs. | ||

So Stutters you're saying you believed cakepie to be the other pokemon trainer (you knew his rolename was oak) and more townie than rayn, therefore rayn scum. Then cakepie claims to be Oak (as you knew) and it changes your read on rayn? No, I knew cakepie wasn't a trainer. Notice how I said another pokemon role, not trainer. I wanted to see how people would react. | ||

If the other trainer was town(assuming one exists and he's actually not just battling RNG) when the other trainer killed his Pikachu he would have masoned someone because going 1 for 1 with Rayn is totally worth it. And if Rayn was lying and gave no power with the death, he'd still claim because then Rayn is lying and more than likely scum. | ||

Probably should have pieced together that such an exploitable role wouldn't exist but with your night post about how cakepie would be scum if x happened, I figured it had something of a DT type role and that sold me on the validity of it. Does anyone have any advice for managing the work-load of reading a big game? Every time I play in one it's so hard to catch up after not being in thread for a bit. Then by the time I read that and had some thoughts ready some crazy new thing went down and I had to reread. Wasn't even really sure where to start with scumhunting except my gut in a game this size. | ||

Did you enjoy trying to manipulate the list towards your own ends while having to deal with unknowns like scum in the mason chat? I enjoyed it, but there were a couple issues which fixing would make it better imo. We had no idea how changes to the list resolve(I apparently had priority over some other actions because n1 my check didn't hit who I wanted it to and Shiao was 2 slots below me instead of one). After that I stopped trying to understand it. Not necessarily a full list of cop then watcher then other list modifiers or whatever, but even if I wanted to plan with Onegu to set up ourselves for a check/watch on someone, it was still a toss up. The other issue with Black Mesa was there was no incentive to post in it, at all as town with the pseudonyms. With scum possibly in it, planning wasn't reliable because you'd be announcing what you were doing. The best we could accomplish was establish scum was in there, which doesn't do anything with pseudonyms. I probably wouldn't have posted in there period had Onegu not outed himself, except maybe for a will post. Not sure how to fix that one other than requiring real names if you post, but then scum has no incentive to post in it at all. Maybe something like they get a vote to either give a power, a mini-election to give vet status or something like that. Overall the game was a blast, thanks for hosting. Cross I disagree about not claiming to BM, but I'll have to type that up. Regardless, thanks for the analysis. | ||
