Yes, you have repeatidly cast doubts on LUTHA, **Koldanar** being the most recent. **Captain Klutz** asks the key question, though, which I’m not sure you have ever really answered. Do you think **Koldanar** is scum false claiming cult, or do you think all the cult members so far have been lying about being non-exclusive?

Remember, the point is to win. And to win town needs to kill the wolves and mafia. If cult is non-exclusive they count towards town’s win condition, and against scum’s.

Town wins when _ **14 Scum** _ players are dead. Scum wins when either team is greater than 50% of the _ **population** _.

**Johnny** , do you think the LUTHA wincon is non-exclusive?

I’m not going to do it for him and why on earth would **you?** You basically just outed a player who may or may not have had a claim forced upon them because it was “so obvious” that it must have been noticed by scum?

I didn’t out **Lakai** , **Khameleon** did. If you think scum missed such an obvious breadcrumb I don’t know what to say. _You_ noticed it, yet you went on to cast suspicion on him. What was your motivation there? Do you doubt **Khameleon’s** claim?

Yes, it’s been a rough week. And I’ve had a lot of them during the course of the game. I’m sorry I even brought it up, but I’m sleep deprived and after catching up on the game last night I couldn’t believe the horrible play I was seeing. So much so I asked that others chime in to see if I was out in left field.

I expected your vote. I’m an easy target due to my low participation, and you like easy targets.

I shouldn’t have been modkilled, but thanks for that. My participation has been low, which is anti-game, and I feel bad that I signed up thinking I would make time for the game but have had a hard time doing so. On the other hand I think your participation, prolific as it is, has been anti-town. I haven’t decided if I think you’re scum or not, but you are hurting town and deserve to be called on it.
