Hey, all - At this point, I am fairly certain it has become impossible for any of you to be ressurrected. I will therefore offer spoiler board access to any player who requests it via PM. ---

Mom always gave you the mini marshmallows in your hot chocolate while I was drinking from the dog bowl.

Story does take his mod-prerogative-sweet time on occasion when sending responses. 😉 I had asked by PM too and he told me no! But he pm’d me a couple of minutes ago to spoil me, I am not sure what changed since I didn’t look at the boards longer than it took me to see who was scum. Now that I know I am back here to continue the good conversation that is going on in this thread. ---

Interseting conundrum. No one talks or else risk lynch fodder. But no one will LAL. With no other night kills (me thinks - since I am not spoiled) this phuquer could go on a Llllloooooonnnnnnnggggggg time. Hey, story wanna put me and blam back in for seconds. I’ll go double or nada. ---

I’m limiting myself to skimming at this point. I think it will be better for my blood pressure. I did see this though: > [@Mafia: Evil Dead - DAY/NIGHT SIX](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/mafia-evil-dead-day-night-six/481695/67): > > I’m still not convinced Mhaye is scum. I’m also not convinced he is town, but I feel that there is too big of a risk to lose such a power role if he is. I am strongly encouraging our Vig to attack him tonight - if he survives the day. I think brewha’s statement pretty much sums up why I’m so frustrated with these games. Brewha’s statement should be a clear indication that brewha is scum. The problem is, this kind of risk-averse play is the Town’s modus operandi so one really can’t say for certain that brewha is playing a scum cop-out card. Town cannot lynch based on the “risk” of being wrong. That is absolute madness! Scum is going to false claim and they will false claim things that makes Town uneasy to lynch that player. Lynches must be determined based on evidence, not the potential power of the role-claim. So the question is: is brewha scum or a nervous risk-averse Town? I’m leaning scum; though I’m basing this on one data point. One avenue that no one seems to be considering (unless I skimmed over it) is the list of volunteers for claim vanilla Town for NAF to investigate. Are scum likely to volunteer for this or sit happily in the not-to-be investigated column? I say the latter for the most part, but I wonder if one scum claimed vanilla to “cover bases.” I’m curious to know why scum waited as long as they did to take a shot at NAF. I wonder if the next person on NAF’s “to investigate” list is scum. I don’t even remember who that is, but _someone_ should look at it. I also think lynch the lurker should be a matter of policy as it makes the endgame more interesting. Town keeps lynching the active players which leaves no postings for the end of the game. Yawn. ---

I wonder if the next person on NAF’s “to investigate” list is scum. I don’t even remember who that is, but _someone_ should look at it. I think that, beyond that, people should be looking at the time period surrounding my claim. I cleared a lot of people in my mind because of how they reacted to my claim. I have been spoiled and I haven’t gone back to look yet to be sure that the people I now know are scum did in fact give themselves away, but I strongly suspect that at least one of the did. > [@sachertorte](#): > > I also think lynch the lurker should be a matter of policy as it makes the endgame more interesting. Town keeps lynching the active players which leaves no postings for the end of the game. Yawn. I agree. Town is far to obsessed with lynching scum every time. Sometimes you need to put town into a good positition by lynching dead weight. ---

And not to toot my own horn, but… > [@Mafia: Evil Dead - DAY/NIGHT FIVE](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/mafia-evil-dead-day-night-five/480855/29): > > Anyway, there was a comment made yesterDay that smacks of Perfect Information Syndrome: > > > [@Mafia: Evil Dead - DAY/NIGHT FOUR](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/mafia-evil-dead-day-night-four/480155/236): > > > > Hal claimed Alpha Redshirt (I think). > > No, I didn’t. I claimed “vanilla town”. However, **MHaye** hit it right on the head (albeit it with a qualifier). And while I certainly have my doubts that scum know our Alpha/Beta status off the bat, I could see a scum investigator taking a peek at me just to see if had been lurking because I was a pro-town power role, trying to keep things under wraps. Good enough reason for me to: > Vote **MHaye** TOOT! TOOT! TOOT! 😃 ---

So, now I kinda wish I hadn’t been spoiled. If only so I could still talk to the few of you who aren’t spoiled. I have questions about what everyone thinks town will do, but I don’t know how to phrase them so I won’t give anything I know away.
