All right, this is the first person who was around toward end of Day and didn’t vote Texcat, Septimus, or ShadowFacts.
Roleblocks are useless now? Having four votes instead of two is useless? Do you honestly believe what you wrote here? If you don’t, why’d you write it?
Yes – which role you are busy questioning my doubt of.
Why did you bring this up? There was no reason to doubt Ed’s towniness, regardless what you think of ShadowFacts: the mere fact of his death (and its manner), plus the statistically small numbers of third parties that might be expected, would argue he was probably town – as would his sticking his neck out to try to get Septimus lynched on day two. You’re making the same sort of error here that originally pinged me about SF himself, and a similar error to Septimus’ reason for voting TexCat (SP also, though after his vote): Ed being town was a reasaonable assumption, and there’s no real reason to have to ever qualify it as something hugely uncertain. Yet you do so here. Why?
Sorry, but BS that it disagrees with anything I’ve said or implied. NPC rolenames and classes varying so as to prevent vanilla handshaking is one thing (and something I had evidence of in comparing my own role to the public vanilla one since night zero to boot): power role names being wildly divergent from the powers attached to them is another. I’ve never expected that to be the case, and I’ve seen no evidence yet that it would be. Lightfoot claims Seer, a perfect match for detective. Ed’s mystic role could be anything, and that’s pretty much what his powers are too: a hodgepodge of different things.
I would expect rogue to be a thief in some sense. And in fact SF is that, whether the definition was stretched by Astral (him really being the backup he claims) or by SF himself (the role being a white-washed version of his real scum one).
Indeed we are. I think this is an appropriate point to remind people of your various cases against me.
Day Two: You don’t get why I woudl have role-claimed, so I must have been saving Silver Jan.
Day Three: Oh, Jan’s dead and a townie. You don’t get why I would have role-claimed, so I must have been using her role as cover for my own.
You’re willing to take that one thing that you don’t understand, and upon that – hardly even on anything else I’ve ever done or said, which is NOT like I’ve been doing with ShadowFActs – decide I’m worth your sole and only suspicion and vote. Even if the scum rationale behind this thing I did has to turn 180 degrees in the process. And you can still turn around and criticize me for my pursuit of ShadowFacts?
Most games have detectives.
Even those that don’t will generally be assumed to have one by the scum until otherwise indicated.
Lightfoot claimed on day two, long before the scum could have any such certainty.
She hasn’t been counterclaimed.
There’s virtually no chance the scum could have taken advantage of the delayed reveal to have pulled some sort of funny business.
She’s town.
Hardly. But handwaving away a choice among three vote leaders with a “oh gosh I can’t pick any of them it’s all WIFOM” … that’s not useful. And I don’t remotely think you’re an idiot.
