I guess it's still more beneficial to keep the KP roles in check and avoid rogue KP at obvious townies. Basically scum need to do town's bidding or claim scum (if they get KP roles which seems likely). It's obviously good if either of those options happen. Also: Survivor should definitely claim ASAP. If there's a CC, then it's pretty obvious that the first claimer is Mafia (since Mafia would never sacrifice themselves for no good reason like that). If there's no CC, then it's pretty certain that he actually is the Survivor. All in all, I don't really see any reason for scum to fakeclaim Survivor at this point. Later on, yes, but not now. That's why Survivor should claim ASAP. | ||

Well, it seems like only rayn and Oats really took the bait. I think this makes them both townier, since it would have, in fact, been pretty anti-town to pick my numbers right away (it would render any glorious upcoming plan pretty much useless). Also it's usually more towny to instantly take a hard stance. AND rayn likes to be more aggressive/reckless as town from my experience. marv's reaction was meh, pretty much null. I slightly disliked Artanis's reaction of soft-defending me. That seems like the classic "scummy reaction" of not really committing to any stance, but gaining slight favor in my eyes. Also I can never completely trust Artanis again after how I was fooled last time, it's too bad ![]() | ||

I said that I can support the plan but that it's not 100% good. I don't think that's really wishy-washy or anything. Just fact. | ||

In short you are saying "just lol" because you are perceiving something to be dumb, but you did a dumb thing in the first place, you just don't perceive it that way. Maybe if you didn't do dumb things in the first place (if you're town) then people wouldn't draw incorrect conclusions based on what you said, hmm? It's just the way I play. I like WIFOM and getting reactions out of players. I generally suck at reading a thread objectively and nailing the scumteam from just that. | ||

"2) Having multiple Kp roles all at the top of the list is very dangerous because mafia can share numbers and avoid clash. This is especially true in a mini game." I don't think this was mentioned yet, but actually rayn's plan solves the problem that was presented as being a problem with rayn's plan here. If we follow a plan to pick the KP roles, there can be no clashes with picking the KP roles, meaning that Mafia have no advantage in picking the KP roles at all. So in the end this point 2 just encourages rayn's plan. LSB hasn't really done much else besides this anti-rayn stance. He also seems set on undermining the plan rather than trying to genuinely talk about it with rayn. It reminds me of myself in LXIV where I tried to undermine the mass claim plan and marv becoming Mayor - no meaning to be objective, just flatly refusing it in any way possible. Very possibly scum. | ||

He hasnt really done anything else past kinda defending xata but not directly. We'll see pretty soon if yamato actually picked 1 1 at the beginning. If he did, it's pretty terrible, since that's even more anti-town than picking something like 5 4 would have been... And I wouldn't put it past him as Mafia, since it's usually relatively easy to find out if he's scum or not, so it's not like he has a lot to lose by doing this. There really isn't much that yamato has done so far. It's all filler, anti-town / null (such as picking(?) 1 1, vaguely resisting the plan, giving soft opinions)... Overall just nothing that makes me think town. And I think he should be more townish by now if he actually was town. So he's probably scum. | ||

I checked a scumgame of his before that game and the biggest difference I felt was that he didn't care about the game as scum, which I'm feeling here as well. Well, I guess he could be. But I'd say it's more likely that he's putting himself in a bad spot as town than as Mafia. I'm having a hard time reading what purplhz is saying because he posts a ton of text but barely says anything in all of it :/ His attitude to the game is just unhelpful. If he's usually helpful then he's probably scum. | ||

Lol.... Dunno how I could miss that post. Phoneposting sucks etc. Well, that's good then. On March 06 2014 14:07 raynpelikoneet wrote: Also i'll keep track of this: 1. Palmar [1,1] 2.

Seems like it wasn't such a good idea... There were less clashes than I thought. I also sent in my role choice, but apparently this choice isn't permanent, so it's not like it matters too much. A lot has happened while I was away. Mainly austin and gumshoe have come under new suspicion. Both resisted rayn's plan for bad reasons. Also LSB remains as a suspect. prphlz not so much anymore. I dunno about him, but at least he's pretty active in the discussion, so I'm not too fond of lynching him. I'm not truly sold on gumshoe. His stance against rayn here reminds me of his stance against me in GoT Mafia (I was pretty clearly townie and putting in a lot of effort, but he kept opposing me for dumb reasons). Then he pretty much went AFK and was town KP'd. On the other hand, as scum (granted it was a long time ago) he was a lot more passive and unnoticeable. Does he do this thing where he baits a lynch on himself as scum nowadays? austin... He's really focused on a pretty irrelevant topic (unlikely host speculation). I guess he does have a point, but it's not like all the roles will be greatly changed (maybe like DT, but probably not much else). I don't think it's that bad to talk about this topic in itself, but he hasn't really done anything else worthwhile. Most importantly he has done nothing to help with the D1 lynch and has just 100% focused on a pretty irrelevant branch of the PYP stuff. He's certainly null at best and slightly scummy at worst (for contributing in a way that's overall not helpful and even anti-town by distracting the discussion and undermining rayn's plan). LSB has also mostly attacked rayn's plan, but at least he had some slight contributions to scumhunting (rayn+austin+Hopeless). Although he seems VERY fast to jump to conclusions (rayn Mafia for shaky reasons, austin Mafia for one post (?), Hopeless Mafia for sheeping...). His crusade against rayn is also very tunnely and doesn't seem genuinely concerned about the best direction for town. It's more like he just wants to attack it for the sake of attacking it, not to determine if it's truly useful or not. His play is just pretty scummy and even at best it's just null. Hopeless seems to have dropped from the discussion entirely. He's an extreme sheep but I don't really think he's Mafia for it. More like just lazy/insecure. We'll see if he'll push anything of his own. I'm starting to feel pretty scum on yamato. True, he didn't pick 1 1 at the start, but even more worryingly he's become very antagonistic and useless. It's kinda like here (as scum): http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/mafia/423047-got-mafia-lords-and-liars?user=yamato77 On the other hand, as town, he usually feels quite townish (see http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/mafia/438132-tl-mafia-lxiv-a-game-of-intrigue?user=yamato77 - although it was a PM game so part of his contributions were in PM land). My preferred lynches would be yamato/LSB/austin atm. gumshoe doesn't really fit in my lynch candidates unless I'm convinced that this is scum gumshoe playing like this (against my experiences with him). Also someone pointed out that there isn't necessary a Survivor in this setup. And that seems to be the case currently, I guess. | ||

It's quite a significant distinction. Actually it's a bit different from here since it happened mostly in PM land at N0 before the game truly started. I started campaigning to be our House Lord and tried to convince people (gumshoe, Grack, iamperfection) to elect me. gumshoe's reaction was something like "I don't trust you, I don't want to elect you". It was a long night and eventually we elected iamperfection, but basically gumshoe's reasons for distrusting me were mostly emotional and/or senseless. It's like he automatically gets suspicious of someone trying to campaign for himself. It felt pretty similar to here where rayn was proposing his plan and kind of leading town, but gumshoe's gut reaction was just to distrust him for no good reasons. The point is, I don't necessarily think gumshoe using bad reasoning to oppose something makes him Mafia. Dunno if it makes him town either, but it feels more like the town gumshoe I've known. Has his meta shifted to be more like this as scum too? Because last game I played with him (a pretty long time ago) he was just quite passive as scum. | ||

It should generate discussion not baseless band wagons ![]() Also on the issue of third party. Isn't little finger sort of irrelevant to town? I mean unless he's going to act like a total dick and try to get himself lynched he really shouldn't be a problem for us, its scum who have to worry about shooting him. Townies look for scum, scum look for third party, lets not do scum's job for them by finding the guy whose potentially the biggest threat to their operation. It's better if little finger stays hidden looks like a helpful blue and soaks up a hit. I'm not saying we shouldn't talk about him, I just don't want to give him away(which as far as we know makes no difference to him) until scum finds him on their own, because just by being there as he is he disrupts and confuses scum. For the record though I think he has to ensure that catelyn survives no matter what(or maybe sansa) and ned dies. Or maybe he just has to identify everyone. It'll be near impossible to confirm our theories until later when we've seen someone act peculiar(like a third party would) even then though like I said before it might still be a good idea to keep Baelish under wraps. Next up, Xatalos, why did you vote for me of all people? Is it because I'm a newer player eg an easy target to pressure/bandwagon? | ||

In all seriusness, dumb/policy lynches are a baaaaaahd idea, even for das jokes, we have a disgusting amount of kp floating around and some of it may very well fall into scum hands. Despite that possibility, scum dont even need the guns, just the bullets to fly in the wrong directions. In fact whereas town need to abuse the fact that they have far more control of the setup, all scum need to do is play standard. If they can just look better than town, this game can be over extremely fast, thats why I personally feel that Artanis and Palmer are town, because while they're behaviour is unlikely to get them lynched (and shouldn't in fact, we need to be damm sure about our lynches) it IS likely to get them shot. Honestly I dont think anyone would really bat an eye if Artanis died over night(sorry best buddy ) : ) if scum play jokey its such a simple thing for them to get caught out. For that reason, I expect scum to be playing a bit more serious, it's something that might get them lynched in the long run, but the bullets are likely to be spent by night 2 and where they land will probally decide the game anyway. This brings me to my person of interest. Rayn : Has clearly thought out the setup throughly, he came into this game knowing exactly what he wanted to do and I'm damm sure he would have led the charge as scum or town. His plan has allowed him reasonable positioning pecking order wise, but it's also led to town discussion and formation, taking into account that scum need to play competently to win this game I would consider his organizational efforts a wash. Less neutral a factor alignment wise is that rayns been playing extremely aggressive this game, picking away at the likes of Palmer and others. Rayn sees himself as an aggressive town player, personally I find he is an adaptive one, bringing out aggression when its called for not just for the sake of it. When Rayns scum though, he plays to his idea of himself and is far more pushy, often feeling as if he needs to jump on things before anyone else. I will be taking 2,1 because I dont trust Rayn atm and I rather neither he not get the one of his choice. As for his plan, I think it's fine so long as rayn doesn't get a gun, I'd prefer if Artanis and palmer could take hold of the heat. As for LSb's issues with the plan, I dont see a problem with it myself, I'm sure Rayn thought it out pre game so it's fine either way as long as the right people are on top. I doubt scum would so openly disagree with it, they're probably going to just secretly pick whatever number they want. Openly attacking a plan thats gaining momentum seems silly / : Anyone have any questions for me? I got a bit before I need to go. On February 16 2014 17:20 gumshoe wrote: Haro! So I've pretty much blitzed through the thread, but obviously the most recent event eclipses everything that came before it so I've reconfigured most of my reads in light of it. The only reason I can see Moc quitting like he has is if he feels like his scum team has completely failed him, which he straight up acknowledges in the case of Rayn. Gives me the sense that most of his scum team are incompetent and already under pressure. I also dont think hed reveal like this if there were one or two members of his team on at his time of confession, which would be a bit of a dick move, this tentatively clears Grack( who I had pinged as null) thrawn(his posting aggravates me a smidge just like in the last serius game we played, so probs town) and bum, all of whom had decent thread presence and posted within a couple hours of mocstas confession. Bum I especially consider townie because of how seemingly sincere hes been in his attempts to push discussion, case in point this post glows green to my eyes. "It seems like you have a stronger read on Vivax then you do QuantomPope. Can you respond to what he has said. I would appreciate if you two(three?) would hash out what you think of each other. I'm in the same boat with your scum list, but because you don't go into much detail, I can't benefit from what you think!" An attempt at getting a contribution out of a player whose likely to be lynched comes off as a weird scum play, unless that scum player is totally confident that the townie will provide misinformation. Something I dont think a scum bum would count on. Vivax also posted within range of the confession, but even disregarding that I honestly cant believe Mocsta would quit like this if he had Vivax on his team. Same reasoning applies to rob. Which leaves a pool of six within which lies the last two scum. 1:Shiapi: Has done extremely little for town, that much hasnt changed, Round hasnt really said much on him all game long, usually deflecting questions or arguments against him onto someone else, only once he became the clear lynch did Moc/rayn hop on the wagon faithfully. A shiapi scum partner would def fit the bad scum team narrative. 2:Mattchew: Posts a bunch of one liners, mostly comments on others reads, has a relative amount of heat on him, thread presence low to medium. I dont think hes scum with shiapi unless shiao called his mother a goat or something. Although that would explain Mocs exasperation with his team, meh. 3: Quantom Pope: Extremely low content, could definitely see Mocsta getting pissed about being with this guy. 4:Mordanis: His early posts look like they have some actual, albiet befuddled, thought to them but his targets are odd, and bieng reasonable more often than not does not translate to bieng townie. He goes after Rob and Vivax, two relatively green players at the time, strange choices even if you take into account the volatile nature of any games start. Another odd thing is Rounds hard defense of him. "I think Mordanis has about the best posts in thread. Yes they are worded a bit awkwardly and idk what that means. He can answer for himself about that. The "brb gonna go write a wall of text case against everyone" is an obvious joke and everyone should be able to realise it.." at the time Mordanis had done a decent amount of contribution, but it's odd just how far Round sticks his neck out for him, going so far as to call his posts the best thread... Not even sure if Rayn's the kinda player to do that if they were buddies. Could just as well be post flip posturing on a possible lynch target, a motive backed up by Rayns willingness to change his stance on Mord as scum got more desperate for a lynch. Definitely a frustrating scum partner to have, so Mord does fit the terrible scum team theory. 5: Sidesprang: Not much of a contributor, but reads townie to me . Him asking for my replacement seems like a pretty unscummy thing to do, scum would want my slot to stay inactive as long as possible, yet here he is pretty much begging for a real contributor. Also his asking for a townie certificate... Considering the dark green and bloody history of Coag's accursed emblem, seems pretty brazen. Oh and his first vote, although a light hearted one, was on Mocsta... yeah maybe hes scum? Extremely reckless if thats the case, doesn't ultimately read red to me. 6: Jar Jar: least scummy of the bunch, has his own thoughts, pushes his own reads, generally helps town, I can elaborate if anyone likes but if you read through his filter you can see that although sherlock he aint, hes certainly doing more for town than anyone else on this list,(admittedly not saying much.) Thats all for now, if anyone has any questions, I'll answer them tomorrow, it's been a long day, gl and good night town. Oh and regardless of all this, no reason to not vote round. Hurray for free lynch! The difference is, though, that the one from GSL is much "safer". This one where he attacks rayn is sure to bring him under scrutiny and I'm not sure what the point of that would be as scum (since several other players, probably including scum, had already attacked rayn with better reasons). gumshoe doesn't even really oppose the plan, but rather rayn as a person. What's the point? It doesn't really achieve anything other than making himself a lynch candidate. Otherwise gumshoe hasn't really done much yet. Apparently because of the "Xatalos curse" (lol). I'd feel much better about lynching yamato. He's going for his scum meta so far from what I can see. Or LSB/austin would be acceptable as well. They've both undermined rayn's plan with a tunneled focus and without much reason. And without real other contributions. I guess the same can be said for gumshoe, but I feel like he's the towniest of those three. And actually he did give Artanis a townread at least (and with a pretty decent reasoning). | ||

It shouldn't be hard to change that if you are, in fact, town. I dunno about Palmar, he's pretty much null, but it's not like he's so suspicious that you shouldn't comment on any other players besides having some slight suspicion on him. Who would you want to lynch if Palmar wasn't in the game? | ||

Or it's bad to EVER undermine a plan that rayn comes up with? Or bad to undermine THIS plan? Like, when I read your post, it says that I, myself, have bad reasons for resisting. Scummy reasons or just not good reasons to question things? I'm going to assume that geript won't make any unnecessary changes. Otherwise it wouldn't really make sense to "choose" the roles in the first place. With that in mind, it's just bad to persist with this line of thought when clearly it's not going to change anything (nor it should). It wasn't bad or scummy when you first brought up this idea, but then you proceeded to just focus on that (which was distracting and generally anti-town). The time could have been spent much better and frankly it would have been better if you had never continued on that topic even if it meant going AFK. I can't say it makes you anyhow really scummy but it doesn't make you look good either. Now focus on something better for a change... | ||

I present him an opportunity to bolster his argument, or to try and build a resistance, or to do SOMETHING with. If mafia don't want rayn getting his way, then I'm doing what they want, and they at the very least interact with that somehow. They buddy, they encourage, whatever, but they don't just sit there and leave it alone. Hm. That's a small piece of evidence that could have a point, but it's nowhere enough to townread LSB. Also it's not necessarily the only goal to mess with the plan - equally important could be to create fake contributions to appear like he's doing stuff. More importantly which players would you want to lynch? | ||

It's pretty hard to analyze what happened when the remaining Mafia player almost definitely has some slight/moderate modifications to his role. I guess it could be even a PGO that killed marv when marv visited him. It's too bad that marv didn't say who he was going to RB. Another option is that Hopeless's Vigi shot gained a power-up (for example: "ignore protection"?). But in that case he would have more likely shot me, so dunno. LSB basically confirmed me regardless of his alignment. It wouldn't make too much sense to do that as scum (if I checked him, it'd be instantly GG). He also seemed confident that I would return green if I checked him. I guess there's a small chance that scum has another GF effect, but it doesn't seem too likely for now. It's possible that Artanis is scum based on the actions (if JK somehow changed to having KP), but unlikely based on his play so far - and also unlikely that a role would suddenly gain new KP. I guess it would be best for Palmar to shoot Hopeless now and then we could see where that leaves us. I'm not sure about gumshoe. Doesn't him being alive mean just that someone (Hopeless/prhlhz) most likely didn't shoot him? Hopeless would make a lot more sense. But I guess we won't know that until Hopeless flips. | ||

But of course I know I'm town and Oats is 100% confirmed town to me (he has no role so he couldn't possibly be immune to my check). | ||

LSB - joat Xatalos - dt Palmar - ass Artanis[Xp] - jk gumshoe - vet Hopeless1der - vigi prplhz - day vigi Oatsmaster - vanilla That leaves 4 sensible suspects for the last remaining Mafia: LSB - joat gumshoe - vet Hopeless1der - vigi prplhz - day vigi gusmhoe hasn't really done anything, but sadly I can't expect more from him as town. Null. LSB claims to have greenchecked me. It would be risky to do as scum, since he would have no way to defend himself if I redchecked him. Slightly town. prplhz claims to have shot gumshoe, but gumshoe still lives. Hopeless also claims to have shot gumshoe. The most likely explanation is that one of them is lying. It's probably Hopeless. They both also have the most dangerous roles in the hands of scum. So what I propose is: Palmar shoots Hopeless If the game still continues, we lynch prplhz If the game still continues (which I find very unlikely), we kill gumshoe and LSB I find it very unlikely that we lose this way. | ||

Now we know that Hopeless shot gumshoe once. This means that either A) prplhz was lying when he said he used his day-vig on gumshoe or B) gumshoe could somehow survive 2 KP or C) Artanis jailed gumshoe / Hopeless or D) someone bus drived gumshoe and marv. C seems very, very unlikely. Artanis would need to have RB/save + KP. I heavily doubt that there would be bonus KP through any modifications to a role - it's just too big of a change. Artanis -> very likely town. It's plausible that gumshoe could somehow survive 2 KP, but not very likely. It'd also be pretty weird if gumshoe could survive 2 KP AND kill marv+rayn through protection at the same time. It's just way too much stuff in one role. I really don't think gumshoe is our remaining scum. gumshoe -> pretty likely town. prplhz could have lied about his day-vig on gumshoe. Maybe his role changed from day-vig to some kind of a NK role? It doesn't make too much sense though... Day-vig would be fit for scum the way it is. And if his role is the regular day-vig, he would have no way to kill marv+rayn. Also prphlz would have at least semi-bussed both yamato and austin early on. prlhz -> null? I guess LSB as a scum JOAT could have his DT check replaced with a bus driver ability or something (DT would be useless for scum). It's a bit far-fetched, but possible. It would explain everything perfectly and it wouldn't even be OP in any way. It's problematic that LSB took a heavy risk by claiming greencheck on me (he could do nothing but concede if I redchecked him), but the situation for scumteam is pretty dire, so maybe he just took the risk. LSB -> scum? The LSB bus driver theory seems surprisingly like the best explanation. Artanis is very likely town, I don't believe gumshoe could both survive 2 KP and kill marv+rayn, and prplhz would need to have his day-vig transformed into some more powerful NK role. What do you think Artanis? | ||

But LSB having bus driver as one of his JOAT options would just... explain everything. It wouldn't actually even be OP in any way and it's not *that* far-fetched (austin did have a GF modification after all and nothing like that was mentioned in the original roles). And him having bus driver would explain everything neatly: 1) Artanis jailed marv 2) LSB bus drived marv-gumshoe 3) Hopeless shot gumshoe (-> marv died) 4) LSB used Mafia KP on rayn There's nothing weird or odd in any of these events. It's not even very weird that JOAT would be modified for Mafia to replace DT with something like bus driver. | ||

Especially since it seemed like town would follow the plan, it would be a bad idea to sacrifice yourself to send yourself down the list. I'm gonna read him as town. Hopleless1der - Has done nothing but sheep, has very little original thought, just setup talk. I have no idea what is going on this game, but compared to his last game in Shadowed, there is a huge discrepancy. Marv- Is this what town marv would say? Most the rest of his filter seems fine. Then he disappears until N1 and never talks about anything related to the lynch. He's clearly not very invested in how the lynch turned out (since, in hindsight, it was between 2 scum). | ||

It also makes sense in the context that there's a lot of roles for town and scum get roles to counteract/mess with them. It seems the most reasonable explanation so far. Just surprised that Austin would make himself "look good" by clearing a "lynchbait" LSB. I guess it could be possible he already sacrificed himself to make LSB look better. I'm good with this explanation and that makes LSB my prime lynching target. It was a bit weird that austin chose to use all his time "townreading" LSB. What do you think of LSB's evolution of thought process regarding austin during D1 though? | ||

Yeah, it's mostly about how weird it would be for anyone else to be Mafia at this point. We'll see at the deadline if it was right. If anyone has a more sensible explanation for the N1 actions, I'd like to hear it. Not including senseless / OP role powers. | ||

My opinion on Artanis's plan will depend quite a bit on how that works. | ||

I think it's the former but I asked geript just to be sure. If it's the former, we should definitely lynch LSB. If it's the latter, we should probably lynch prplhz. I just don't see how gumshoe could be scum with a (modified) Veteran role. Also he's probably modkilled soon enough or if he returns, his explanation would clear up the situation significantly. I see no good point in lynching him today (and he's quite likely not even Mafia based on the night actions). | ||

I don't think gumshoe is particularly the most likely Mafia based on play. He was just as useless in GoT Mafia as town. I do agree that prplhz is less likely to be Mafia based on play (he would have bussed yamato+austin during D1, for example...). LSB is IMO the most likely Mafia based on night actions AND play so I see no reason not to lynch him. Now we also know that your plan is faulty so there's no role-based reason to spare LSB. | ||

LSB: + Scummy play and scummy D1 vote + Most sensible role theory for N1 night actions as scum + gumshoe is probably getting modkilled anyways gumshoe: + His death wouldn't at least lose us anything + His death would possibly reveal us more about the situation (if he's a normal Veteran, then either prplhz was lying or gumshoe was bus drived) I say we do it like this: 1) Vote LSB for now 2) If gumshoe comes back just to ninja vote, we lynch him - otherwise he gets modkilled so no reason to lynch him 3) Lynch LSB/gumshoe 4) ???? 5) profit! I'm fine with a compromise like that. gumshoe has it coming if he just ninja votes once more. | ||

Btw don't forget that if I'm not around at deadline, a tie means no-lynch (which is the worst thing that could happen). In that case lynch either one of them. If gumshoe remains AFK he's probably getting modkilled. In that case we should definitely not lynch him. | ||

LSB's confidence could also come from the DT ability turning into a framing ability for scum and being able to frame himself to look as town so he'd be confirmed town. And he could be allowed to use two abilities. Would be a pretty OP role then but those kinda roles are all we're potentially left with anyway, and JOAT makes the most sense for it. I doubt it'd be two powers at the same time. It's possible that it was just a risk he took. Actually if I redchecked him he'd be screwed anyway, so why not? | ||

1) A greencheck while having no role (no way to be immune to a check) 2) marv dying through weird night actions (no way for Oats to kill him) I *guess* there's a very small chance that Oats's role became something else because of him being scum. A VERY small chance. But then his role would need to be 1) immune to Cop checks 2) able to kill through protection / bus drive. It's just unlikely. | ||

1) Pretty much the only "contribution" from yamato was to throw dirt at Palmar. This makes Palmar more likely town. 2) The only thing austin did was to hard defend LSB. It's weird no matter how you look at it. I can't fathom his thought process there for now. WIFOM regarding a scummate? Maybe. | ||

1) Hopeless shot gumshoe (gumshoe got the notification just after the deadline) 2) prplhz fakeclaimed a day-vig shot on gumshoe at that same moment (maybe his role changed into something different and he had to fakeclaim a day-vig shot at this perfect opportunity?) prplhz seems town though and his role changing so drastically from day-vig is very unlikely.... | ||

1) Clear belief that I would return green if I checked him 2) Unwillingness to lynch the easiest possible mislynch 3) Wrong assumptions about how the Mafia roles would work I have to admit that LSB is doing a good job of playing innocent if he's scum. | ||

Just one assumption. I do agree that this is a far-fetched theory. But it's also quite far-fetched that Palmar or prplhz would receive a bus driving ability on top of their already powerful KP roles.... And they're also otherwise towny.

While I still think that LSB is the most likely to have a bus driving ability, we lose nothing by lynching gumshoe (and it's not impossible for the PGO theory to be true). ##Unvote ##Vote gumshoe | ||
