Well, you know me, I always opt for the safe choices. Leading the lynch against a claimed power role yesterDay, for example: safe as houses!

Damn, I wonder why tel didn’t selfprotect last Night.

Astral is number one on my susupicion list for toDay. Between a suspicious vote that could have been tryig to save a fellow scum and a couple of other posts that pinger me that where I’m pointing. I want to do a reread of him before I vote though. I’ll put somethign together Monday at work and see if I’m still suspicious.

OK, let’s make this as simple as I can: Do you or do you not think that the Scum have a copy of the vanilla PM? Answer that, and we’ll take it from there.

Maybe he did. Maybe scum have a blocker. Since no power roles claimed, it’s a fairly basic scum strategy to block the target you’re going to kill.

The idea that this has escaped the notice of someone as experienced as you strikes me as a bit odd.

But just for shits and giggles:

**Could Telcontar self-protect?**

Gondolin is probably not the answer you are looking for.

Rivendell probably won’t sit too well, either.

I suppose it depends, there’s really no indication that they are the same person. The true safe bet is that he was from Middle-Earth.

I, however, would not trust anyone who claims to be Glorfindel in this game. I also wouldn’t trust anyone who isn’t me and claims to be Faramir.

My ability to discuss a certain topic which I cannot discuss has nothing to do with my role.

- **Red Skeezix** ’ unvote put **Surburban** and **Special Ed** into a tie for the first time. His new vote put **Surburban** back into the lead by 1 vote
- **Hoopy** ’s unvote tied them again
- **Chipacabra** ’s unvote put **Special Ed** into the lead for the first time
- **Gadarene** ’s vote tied them again
- **Peeker** ’s vote put **Suburban** back into the lead
- **Chipacabra** ’s vote on **Special Ed** brought **Surburban** ’s lead back down to just 1 vote

I strongly believe that All Vanilla PMs are formatted identically aside from the character name. It’s possible that I am wrong. But I really really really really really think so.

This, of course, has nothing to do with my role.

I am not Glorfindel.

So, then, if Scum have the vanilla PM, what can we say about someone who does not have the vanilla PM?  
Quoth **Hoopy Frood** :

Well, to be more precise, nobody has reliably claimed a power role a power role that’s known to be active. And of course the Scum could have chosen to use their kill and powers (if any) on separate people, to maximize the chance of hitting (say) the Detective. The whole handshake business probably thinned out the unknown pool enough for the Scum to figure they have pretty good odds, that way.

On purely meta grounds, I would be disinclined to think that there would be half-masons like myself and full masons in the same game. Other half-masons, though, might be plausible. And I realize that this carries very little weight with anyone other than me, since I’m not confirmed.

It’s in my inbox

You know, that’s the kind of answer you’d give. Only you wouldn’t say it in asuch a straightforward manner.

I might do it more like this:

ya know, when edkid#3 was 4 years old, she tried to teach her rodent[sup]1[/sup] to get the mail. it was funny until the hairball shit on my paycheck. i still cahsed that fucker though, fcs i couldnt throw away 57 bucks.  
But let me just tell you that in posy 967, I stated theat I was not Glorfindel, and was, in fact, Faramir. I posted the actual role PM without my name at all in post 746.  
And, don’t you find it ironic that you are complaining about having to sift through all the garbage posts in the game when you have so many that are not game related and/or basically just complaints about other people’s play?

I understand your point, and this is where we differ in our playstyles.

Yes, I think it’s quite likely that they have it, but…and this is where I lose you, I’m not going to assume that they did. Hell, by that point, hadn’t I already posted my Vanilla PM? So, in theory, didn’t everyone have a copy of it? So, a Scum who may have had access to the Vanilla PM might not have gone to check on it exactly, and might slip. I mean, look at how Suburban messed up even with a basic format handed to him.

Your assumptions are:

1. That is something is likely, then I will act as if it is true and ignore the fact that I could be wrong.
2. Scum will always act correctly and use all information available to them.

I know that just because I think something is true doesn’t mean that it actually is. I also know that Scum mess up from time to time and do things even when they should have known better

The fact that I’m really really really really really confident that there is but 1 Vanilla Role PM leads me to believe that no one who is questioning that repeatedly is themselves Vanilla.

Do you expect any real masons to come out and say no?

So, I suppose Scum could try to figure out who they are by looking at the people who imply that they think it likely or possible.

Of course, having lots of people say no, might make it easier for Scum to try to pull a Ragnarok. You were Scum in that game, right/

Or Town could have a roleblocker and **Telcontar** may have been killed by a Vig, SK or, based on the color in the reveal, he may even have died for some other reason (protecting the wrong player, for example) and wasn’t “killed” at all:

Based on an initial review of **Telcontar** ’s posts:

- he seemed unable to make head or tail of the handshaking attempts (even his own)
- he made the initial case on **Suburban** (apart from **Chronos** ’ earlier vote for lack of participation)
