I am seriously considering revealing my known town result (although It might target that player) But given my early faux paux I am skiddish . If I am dead that person will be all but confirmed….
and probably killeded
If I can be able to catch just one scummy scum I will be helping…
No-one gives you a pony when your team wins…………. And they can’t take away your birthday if you die.(m there is almost always another game in town)
The immediate answer that comes to mind is any protective roles that may be in the game would have a new target.
protect a potentially vanilla role instead of one claiming power?
.. Really?
The tactical situation is as such; If you’ve got a REAL doc protecting you, you’re safe and if the scums attack you, they lose another murder. So they’re either going to attack you for real if you have no doctor, or, they’ll attack me, or they’ll attack Skeezix assuming he’s not one of them. Or ShadowFacts if he’s not one of them, but I’m less sure about that.
Anyone else only narrows the suspect list. If they leave me, and Skeezix, and you around, I THINK they’re in deep doo-doo. So if they go for your claimed scanee, and it is not me or Skeezix, then they leave folks alive who will be a big pain in the neck.
This is just my opinion and may not be the case. Having them attack this scanee would actually be awesome from my perspective because I get to keep playing. That said I’d rather they didn’t have the chance. If you can wait until the last minute to reveal it, you should wait. Give them no time to switch their orders.
If you’re REALLY confident you can survive the night, don’t reveal it at all; but it would actually be helpful to me if you did reveal it right before the end. So I know you did scan someone, probably.
Well, yes. The detective situation is such that you are effectively confirmed. I trust this has been hashed out thoroughly enough that we can just use it as an assumption? With the death of septimus, a godfather, any player you confirm as town is pretty much confirmed as well.
Who else has claimed so far this game? A couple vanillas, you, SF, and Red. SF and Red are both on people’s suspect lists. If they’re town, scum are playing a razor’s edge game of how easily could they be lynched vs. how dangerous are they to scum. And if they’re scum, they’re not a target, obviously. A confirmed town would be nothing but a scum target.
Hierarchy:
Detective
Confirmed townie (by detective or masonry)
Claimed Power Roles
Follow this and a Doctor will make acceptable, if ‘safe’ decisions in using their protective power.
bed. drunkish. me going. tomatoes seeing you
This line is sig-worthy. Sad I can’t make such things on this board.

Most excellent.
Then don’t. Just play.
Normal, what’s your impression of my read on Stickler?
Do you really want to know? Because I don’t agree with much.
He’s obviously not the doc, paranoid or otherwise. That his reference to paranoid doc early on was the source of your certainty that there was one in the game just baffles me.
The “PIS” is not PIS. Games around here have about 90% godfathers and 80% vigs, and the vigs usually don’t shoot blindly (night one vig kill would not be expected). Show me the timing of the vig mention and how it relates to the timing of Septimus’ claim. If it was prior, then maybe.
He always acts like this, right down to the eye for rules details. The one time I’ve seen him as scum that I remember, he did not.
The votes for Texcat may have saved SF. But it’s just as possible a scum SF was hiding in the wings waiting for whether he needed to charge up his votes at the last second. Having a scumbuddy run in and do it for him seems less than optimal strategy. As I’ve mentioned I am more suspicious of those who stood aside (choie, Mental Guy) than those who voted texcat during that period.
Choosing double votes for Texcat over another useless vote on Septimus right at end of day (he voted three minutes prior to deadline IIRC) given that it also saved SF? Maybe. Just maybe, if SF is also mafia. But if SF is not, I don’t think that voting townie Texcat would be the scum default behavior. I think Inner would have just locked in uselessly on Septimus, knowing the odds that anyone would push him ahead with so little time left were slim to none.
In other words, on this poitn alone:
– if Septimus and SF both scum, Inner possible, though problematic because of Shadow’s vote mechanic
– if Septimus only is scum, I find it doubtful
Now tell me what you think of Red in light of those comments of Septimus’ I posted. Remember Septimus was in no apparent danger when he wrote those. Red was the likeliest lynch by far.
So his being on the Jan wagon that saved septimus, and on the TexCat wagon that saved septimus, and being on the septimus wagon AFTER it was clear he was scum, that’s what… coincidence?
Being sure, sure, sure about septimus being scum, and having that suspicion drop off the face of the earth once TexCat got lynched? That’s awfully convenient. Only to reappear after I press hard on septimus and get additional supporters?
I don’t believe in coincidences happening over, and over, and over… without getting a little suspicious.
Link?
Between the TexCat double vote and the septimus lock vote near the end of the next day, 7 real days pass. Inner Stickler waits that long to continue to press septimus? Really?
Posts 1620 and 1621.
Possible. The last two votes on Septimus obviously came very late, but I don’t know where Inner was (or why) in voting Silver Jan, nor what he did on day one.
Argh, watch the confirmation bias here. NOBODY was pressing Septimus this past day, until you did. It was the Shadow and Skeezix show from the get-go.
He still made no attempt to do anything with his vote. Stalling for the better part of a whole week… Why?
He had no vote at all, is that what you’re saying?
Go read Thundercats Mafia, at least. It might give some context why I’m so dubious. Inner subbed in on day two; Pleonast and I were the other two mafia.
How I feel about Red Skeezix is in direct proportion to how many townies he kills and how many scums he kills.
What scum septimus said about him, I can look at as WIFOM, or I can look at it as his true feelings. It’s hard to tell.
But sure, Skeezix can’t survive the game. That’s obvious; just sorta figured the scums would eliminate him for us, or he’d eliminate the scums for us before it became an issue.
