Thanks.
I saw a potential threat- I shared the information and a solution.
Anyone who sees a potential threat to Town should do the same- If you don’t like me because of it- so be it.
there are 6 players currently not voting cookies I am the only one explaining why. Dance with that if I wake up dead.
I agree with others that a bomb or similar retribution mechanic are unlikely, but there’s still a chance. If we reduce the number of people voting for Cookies, we reduce the potential damage. If Cookies is still the runaway candidate as EOD nears, I intend to remove my vote and state who any backup candidates are without casting a vote.
Evening all.
I’ve been sitting and mulling over LightFoot’s idea as she brought it out. IN all honesty, an unsupported “this could be the case” doesn’t convince me. DarkCookies comes across to me as someone who’s strategy had been undermined by her outing, and doesn’t want to support either side.
There does seem to be a consensus, among those who expressed an opinion, that I should remove my vote. I’ve taken it under advisement. I will decide before Dusk, but that is many hours away yet.
This reread has led me to the realisation that I never reported on activities at chez guiri last Night.
guiri had no visitors. I’d say it was as quiet as the grave, but I never go there, remember?
I’ll take suggestions for who to watch, provided the suggestion is backed up by some sort of reasons for suspicion. No reasons, I’ll watch someone else.
Cheers.
that is my intent as well. Granted I am dancing with the info I quoted about the AI unit - but I could not ignore it having read it.
curious- why not place a vote on your “back up” candidate?
Not having other candidates reduces potential that a back-up could be lynched instead through carelessness or manipulation. I don’t think the vote record toDay will tell us much about who’s scum, so I’m not too concerned about preserving the integrity of that record. (See Idle’s lynch for a Day where I don’t think we gain much from the recrod.)
I feel like this is getting lost in the noise a little, but I’d really like to hear other peoples opinions on it.

YOU WIN along with all members of the Cult, living or dead, if any of the five Cultists of Lutha are alive when the game ends in any other way.BACKGROUND:
Some people venerate wealth or power, or chase sirens of fame or possessions. Not you. You care nothing for the bloodlust of the Werewolves, or the base greed and pinstripes of the Mafia, or even for the pleasant camaraderie of the Town. You are the Cult of Lutha, and your numbers are legion. Actually, your numbers are five. You don’t know one another’s names or faces, but so long as even one of you remains alive, the principles of Lutha will triumph in the end.(Postscript: “Lutha” stands for “Leave Us the Hell Alone.” You are no threat to any side. Good luck convincing them of this).
POWERS:
You are the fly in the ointment, the crack in windowpane, the monkey in the wrench. Your powers sow chaos and confusion, the better to keep you safely hidden in plain sight. In any given cycle, you may use your power either by Day or by Night. Select a primary target, and a secondary target; any power used by the former will be automatically redirected onto the latter. This is an exhausting ability, involving possession and astral projection and a whole lot of Fireball whiskey, so you may never use it in two consecutive Cycles.
Bolding mine. This assuming he (and cys) haven’t edited their PM’s.
Dammit, hit post too quick.
Anyway, why does it bother you that he’s scum hunting (or so it appears)?

Yes that’s my point. He said he used his power to try to suss out scum. If I was third party with a third party wincon then as soon as crys and sach claimed I’d have been all about trying to protect them. Why would he, as 3rd party, try to suss out scum?
The motivation doesn’t feel legitimate.

I’m waiting to see what cookies flips before I get too concerned. If she flips Lutha affiliated, than I will probable advocate luthacide. Or at least I won’t try to stop it.

Because according to his role PM he has no reason to do so. And also according to his role PM, he is part of a 3rd party team that he doesn’t know the members of. So, if that was my role, I’d be mainly focused on trying to find the rest of my team. He has no real motivation to find scum except to appear townie, once sach and crys claimed surely he should be trying to redirect doctors onto them or something? Instead he’s like, oh I wanted to flush scum out? Why? What benefit to him is there to flush scum out ?

I’m not trying to swing the vote from Cookies. Cookies is SK basically admitted, so no problem, instalynch. But for tomorrow, I’m super dubious of Koldanar’s claim.

No, i know you weren’t trying to swing the votes away from her, I’m just saying luthas currently aren’t concerning me, unless cookie is one of em.

Ok but Cookie is an autolynch now, so we can either waste the day talking about her or discuss other points.
Like, am I reading too much into this? If so, fine, but I don’t follow his line of reactions. (“oh, I’m a 3rd party with no motivation to find scum, but for some reason I will use my power to try and find scum”).
If he said, oh well, I need to seem townie so I’ll do my best to scumhunt to seem townie that’s one thing. But his is a team that wins by finding each other and surviving. He’s claiming that from D1 he tried to use his power for scumhunting? And even after two members of his team claimed, he continued to use his power solely for scumhunting?

It would probably be a bad idea for people to give you suggestions. All the killers have been either found or killed. You can only spot players with powers, who can easily not use their powers if they think they’ll be targeted. Best to pick a player in secret and hope for the best.
Vote Cookies because we need to slow down the number of deaths. A longer game benefits the Town.

Gotcha. I let him answer those questions.

Typing one handed here, putting my son to bed, so don’t mind any auto correct weirdness.
I’m not sure how I would protect the others, without knowing power roles and redirecting them. And if I find one, then I only get one redirect every two days. Seems easier to scum hunt, honestly.

I think the question is why you are doing what you are doing? Directing from an unknown to an unknown is kind of pointless, not knowing anything about either of them. On the other hand if you redirected actions from Crys or Sachertorte to an unknown that would make more sense from a cult winning perspective as all actions directed at 3p would probably be of unkind intent.
