Let's just leave the mason-kill as a vigi-shot and move on?
I guess you're right. I just really don't want scum to use it as free KP. Oh and I think Rayn is scummier than Shaio because the VT claim is null.

I think you're making Koshi's policy bigger than it is. He proposes we only kill random mason kills not on towns consensus. And that's fine, as long as nobody random kills. I want to use the mason-KP as a way of double lynch, and hopefully nobody fucks with that. Even if you are town and about to get lynched don't martyr-KP your mason, we can always do that later if he's suspicious. If you're about to get mason killed by the consensus of town and are town, think of it as a double lynch --- you're denying town information by denying your flip. Anyway, I think scum have more motivation to mason kill if they are about to be killed in any way lynch or otherwise. If you're town and strike town with your mason kill martyr-KP then only shit can ensue imo. Well this is wrong IMO. Unless I'm really sure that my partner is town (and to be realistic, this is D1 noone is going to be THAT certain) then the correct play is to kill your partner and hope that he flips scum. If not, bad luck but at least you've got yourself 72 extra hours to argue yourself out of the lynch.
But let's ignore that for the time being. Too much setup speculation and policy talk and too little scum hunting...

Well only scum will mason kill if they are about to be lynched. That much is true because town can always do it later.
But yeah I guess the policy doesn't really work because people love vigging other people. Especially on dates.

If it is clear that using the vig unless authorized by town is treated as a scum claim than any town who shoots so he doesn't die is throwing the game and I don't think anyone in this is that dumb.

If scum use it as a KP that is literally the best case scenario for us(unless we were going to vig the scum and they shot before they get lynched). And even in that scenario we come out ahead/even (1 town, 1 scum die and scum losses a kp probably, 1nk) compared to (mislynch, 2nk).

I want to talk about sylencia for a little bit.
Here he posts asking about anonymity, demonstrating an interest in discussing such aspects of the QT mechanic.
On July 24 2013 13:17 Sylencia wrote: Firm, thoughts about anonymity in the qts?
However, later on, when there was some discussion about whether or not it is worth it to mass claim the mason partners, he blatantly tells us his own:

Having 2 people fall for the same gambit in such a short period seems quite unlikely. I'm pretty sure rayn has been in a game with an attempted Kenpachi gambit anyways so he would know better than to fall for it along with his teammate.

Still you and FirmTofu were the only persons to really react in a suspicious manner to the claim so that is the point where I am standing. Who is your lynch-choice now that you have unvoted? FirmTofu or Sylencia. Explain thx. Also, Artanis is my current partner (don't think he mentioned it)
This is very inconsistent, and in my experience is much more likely to come from scum. Add to that the zero amount of scumhunting he has done. All his talk is related to game mechanics, which is very easy and comfortable for scum to talk in.
Thoughts?

Can we just set the kill mechanic aside and label it as a vig shot? If you think about it, it's not a discussion that's going to be productive.

If this was an attempt at a play from a town to force discussion the obvious choice is to not actually PM the host and just say you did so he'd contribute before he died.
Something doesn't add up.
##vote: Malango And Malago's play is scum indicative because...? I agree his early play was WIERD. But why the actual fuck would he do stuff like that if he would be scum? It would be even wierder. And bolded part: how do you know this was not the case?
This is the only time you've ever scum hunted despite having several posts where you discuss policy/setup/defending random dudes/fluff. I'm not impressed at all.

I'm interested in this guy and will try to have a nice little chat with him trying to figure out what alignment he is later on today. I'm getting some bad vibes from his play this far. I agree with you that I was a bit fluffy in my post. I find it strange that so many people jump on this FT wagon with the only reason being the "Kenpachi rule". I pointed out 2 people that went on that wagon really easily. But in 1 hour I will have a 1 on 1 with Lazermonkey, we will see what happens there. I generally don't like the Tofu wagon atm. Rayn was way more vocal about the VT claim than Tofu was, I find it strange that everybody wagoned onto Tofu instead. So you think it's only about the kenpachi? eyo When there is stuff, there is always stuff, you see. Some stuff is stuffier than other stuff but it's never alone. Unless it's not there, you see, but if it's not there it can't be alone either because it's not even there, you see.
Artanis is also scum.

Hmyhea, Sylencia looks bad. No scum hunting at all. Sadely he is somewhat of a lynch bait. I managed to get him killed D1 once as scum : /. But he really need to step up his posting.

Being irresponsible with a vig shot because "you have nothing to lose" is not a good play at all. If you don't let it happen and don't hit scum you're responsible for a mislynch+1 town death and wasted the entire day. We don't have to use the vig but shooting unless you're sure someone is scum is straight retarded if you are town.
