**Paul** seem to be the first to mention him here: > [@paulwhoisaghost](#): > > WoW on DiggitCamara > > I’m finally getting around to this. Not much here though… pretty quiet, but still participating… maybe just enough to avoid suspicion? 15 posts and we are on D3. 5 posts from D1 and 10 from D2. > > I didn’t like the scum slip theory when I was trying to catch up. I can see how it was misleading, but it shouldn’t have been a reason to vote in and of itself… of course hindsight is 20/20 so I’ll let the townie vote go for now. > > So you are still suspicious of Colby, but now that there is a bandwagon on him you feel it will be okay to disown that lynch from your voting record and move on to SNF for “defending” another player? I defend other players all the time… not because I know their alignment, but because I disagree with the argument against them. Why sit back and let bad arguments get people lynched? > > Notice SNF’s defense is now a slight defense, but the vote stays. > > Now its a very slight defense. And semantics. I agree the unvote didn’t sit right with me. > > That’s all the D1 posts… 5 posts… in 5 posts Diggit managed to vote, unvote, switch votes from the person she thought was scum to someone defending the person she thought was scum, and backpedal twice. Pretty busy for 5 posts, but still doesn’t address anything else in the game, doesn’t even comment on Lakai… or ToeJam. > > Admits the case is really weak, but continues the vote anyway. Still no comment on Lakai or ToeJam. > > I guess you gotta find some reason to justify votes right, that other case wasn’t really holding up so I guess it needed reinforcement? > > I actually agree with this post. I think it might be why we have been seeing an uptick in power role deaths, there were a lot of people claiming or saying things that revealed they either didn’t have a switch or that they weren’t one role or another or just flat out that they were nilla town. Each comment narrows the pool. I’m assuming “disclaimers” was supposed to be “claimers”. > > More switch talk. > > Not a Masonic group… masons typically have private chat and are still part of town. They are a cult with a weirdo power and a survival wincon. But you know, thats a better vote than the SNF vote, IMHO. > > In case it isn’t obvious because of the lack of quotes within quotes, the point here was that the 3P winton wasn’t consistent with the Roles doc. It is, Diggit was misinterpreting the roles doc which states that exclusive 3P wins are superseded by town or scum wins. Crys claimed a nonexclusive wincon. > > I disagree with this assessment of the 3P situation… > > Somehow missed Lakai subbed back in. > > Townies coming back from the dead bugs Diggit apparently…. its not that hard, just disregard D1 when assessing Lakai v2.0. > > And that is it. At least Diggit commented on the switches and the 3P. And kind of comments on Brewha, in the sense that they seem to take Brewha at his word and mentions he probably has a target on his back. No comment on ToeJam or those who call for his head. And the vote stays on a claimed cultists… which I disagree with. We need to kill scum and use the 3P as population padding and hopefully have them working with us to eliminate scum… for now. Lynching them is a step closer to the scum wincon not towns. > All in all I don’t like it. I’m not a huge fan of the case against ToeJam, who has the most votes right now I believe… but maybe Digit will come in and vote for Crys or Sach or SNF and get an alternate wagon rolling. Or maybe they will finally comment on the ToeJam situation on the third Day of people calling for his head. Who knows. I don’t even think there is enough here to warrant a vote. Just a few awkward votes and unvotes that ping me. I guess I’ll keep looking and keep an eye on Diggit. Asking him to “finally comment on the ToeJam situation on the third Day of people calling for his head” Then came a few lists: > [@AngeloftheNorth](#): > > 1. DiggitCamara: no read. > [@snfaulkner](#): > > 1. DiggitCamara - Lurking, though not as bad on D2, no word yet toDay. Had a bad case on me that I didn’t quite get on D1 and on into D2…I’m wary. > [@Thing\_Fish](#): > > Nate. Other than ToeJam, who you are voting, and Idle Thoughts, you have NO clear scum leans? You are wary of Diggit, Prof makes you nervous, and paul is slightly pingly. There are 14 scum-boy-ar-dees out there, you need to turn your paranoia up, man. > [@jsgoddess](#): > > 1. DiggitCamara - scum lean > [@Prof.Pepperwinkle](#): > > I have been doing more reading over on MafiaScum. There I found two pieces of advice that encourage me: 1) Town are Idiots. We don’t have the information we desperately need and flail about all ways, hoping to luck into something. 2) Hunt the Scum Team, not just individuals. > > So, on D1 and D2 there isn’t enough Data to really make a good case. This is D3. Here they are: The Mafia and the Wolves are most likely found in these 14 people: > > **Svejk, Cygnus42, Khameleon, Howkeyop, Hal Briston, DiggitCamara, Nanook, > BillMC, Koldanar, MHaye, nesta, Zeriel, Idle Thoughts, Inner Stickler** > > The order is from least-to-highest posters. Yes, I considered people who’ve subbed in for other people. > [@Koldanar](#): > > 1. DiggitCamara - neutral > [@Hockey\_Monkey](#): > > 1. DiggitCamara – neutral to slightly scum > [@DiggitCamara](#): > > Seeing that Sario just blew up, couldn’t he be the one who prevented a Night Kill? > > Other than that, I am still re-reading the thread. One question, however: why does everyone assume that the cult has been “cleared” and is probably non-hostile? > > The thing is that makes me a bit nervous is: > > 1. We only know their role by their reported PM. > > 2. They hold at least a switch. I am assuming that switches are held by members of opposing factions (to maximize WIFOM). Wouldn’t a reveal of the switch help us see whether or not a living townsperson holds a similar switch? If that counterswitch were discovered, we would know for certain if the third party is hostile, wouldn’t it? This is the first post from **DigitCamara** not answering or commenting on the questions or the list. But to be fair - he does say he is still reading so that might explain the lack of responds. > [@DiggitCamara](#): > > I also believe the cultists’ description is fishy. The fact that they are/were hidden from each other and have the power to find each other might make what happens AFTER they find each other interesting. And not necessarily good for townsfolk. More about the cults. Still no answer and not much talk of wolfes/mafia/scum. > [@Hoopy\_Frood](#): > > I don’t know of anyone who considers them cleared. You’re obviously not paying attention. The point you seem to miss is THEY’RE NOT WORTH WORRYING ABOUT AT THIS POINT. FINDING SCUM IS A MUCH MORE IMPORTANT CONCERN RIGHT NOW. Others have answered something a long the same - but Hoopy Froods-post sums it up pretty well. If anyone want all quotes, I’ll find them in another post. > [@Captain\_Klutz](#): > > Commenting on point 2: > > I don’t know what you mean by “Wouldn’t a reveal of the switch help us see whether or not a living townsperson holds a similar switch?” > > **Crys75** has already revealed what switch she has. Whoever holds the other one is free to mention it. But note that we don’t have any information on the distribution of the switches, so inferring alignment (or hostile/non hostile) from switch possession would be reckless. Tell me, **DiggitCamara** , what would you conclude if the other switch were held by: > > 1. Scum > 2 Town > 3 Third party Turning up and still not answering. But places a vote this time (so I assume he has read everything by this point): > [@Captain\_Klutz](#): > > Commenting on point 2: > > I don’t know what you mean by “Wouldn’t a reveal of the switch help us see whether or not a living townsperson holds a similar switch?” > > **Crys75** has already revealed what switch she has.

Too loudly. Reason? Defense of assorted list of players with no reason given. > > **Vote Thing Fish** > [@sinjin](#): > > What about the others who posted their truthiness lists? **Thing Fish** postes in thread - but doesn’t even mention the vote from **DiggtiCamara**. > [@GuiriEnEspana](#): > > “I am assuming”… “for certain”??? > > How do you suggest we resolve this? Lynch them all? Lynch one? Investigate? > [@DiggitCamara](#): > > I was under the mistaken belief that she hadn’t revealed who her switch targets. However, since she has a scum-targetting switch, one of the switches is (I believe) held by scum, the other by an opposing party. But we have at least 3 parties and by definition someone stepping up with the other switch is very unlikely. > > Forget I said anything. He does give an answer here - on switches :dubious: > [@DiggitCamara](#): > > I must have some kind of color dislexia. > > **Vote Thing Fish** Voting **Thing Fish** once more. This time in a correct blue color. Not commenting on the earlier questions or on the current Idle-situation. > [@DiggitCamara](#): > > Ideally? I would like for one of them to die, whether by lynch or UBatmanning or whatever, just to see what the mods reveal about them. An investigation wouldn’t do much help, as far as I can tell, since the result would simply be “Third Party” (best case scenario). > > Now that I think about it… What if wolves or scum had decided to “declare” themselves as third party? It would be risky, but might deter the opposing faction from using their actions against them. Could that work? And we have yet another answer - this time regarding the cult. > [@Prof.Pepperwinkle](#): > > Guiri mentioned the possibility of LUTHA being Wolves yesterday. I think it quite possible. > [@DiggitCamara](#): > > This quote pings me so strongly because it lists supposed townie folk. I never have understood why anyone would actually trust anyone else implicitly and I constantly look for players who declare someone else to be townsfolk. So now we are talking about his vote. But I still fail to see why he thinks **Thing Fish** ’s “list” was any different from the others list. And I am really surprised that he votes with that conclusion - _without even mentioning **AngleoftheNorth** and the way she stated that she felt **Prof Pepper** was townie to her_. Surely that would have pings him as well?? > [@DiggitCamara](#): > > And the switch she has is for the Bodyguard. So, if we assume she is a Wolf, she could hope for some townie protection during the Night, which actually might have happened due to our Wizard’s haste and perhaps even some collateral damage to said protective role via the Hitman. And even if the Consiglere dispatched someone to see if Crys was visited during the Night, that might actually result in a positive result for the Wolves (death of a protective role by the Mafia). > > Food for thought, at least. More regarding switches and the Cult. > [@jsgoddess](#): > > I am really tired and my eyes are bleary, but I couldn’t make sense of this. Can you rephrase? **GuiriEnEspaña** post a long post and end restating his question to **Diggit** before summing up his post and votes for him. > [@GuiriEnEspana](#): > > Is this really a thing? People other than Septimus ask their scumbuddies to proof-read their posts? > > The quote in Raventhief’s #675 is from [giraffe](http://www.giraffeboards.com/showpost.php?p=1330341&postcount=492)No, but you pretty much just stopped playing/posting once the game started > > @Angel #678, got it, makes sense. > > @Diggit #693, I guess there’s a chance a reveal would show “hostile” or “non-hostile” - we’re usually informed if a player is PFK but it would semi-confirm the rest of the group, which is unlikely. “YOU WIN if at any checkpoint (Dawn or Dusk) all 14 Scum players (Wolves + Mafia) are dead.” > > @Prof.P #694, about wolves claiming as 3rd party, I commented on the opening color where the alpha used the expression “leave us the hell alone”, it was color, and the same post mentioned cultists coming to get the wolves “Members of the town anti crime groups, cops, the cultists, the masons, the new Godfather from Ceciltown, probably even Clemenza.” I think you’re grasping at straws now. > > @Lakai #704, your theory is that scum start bandwagons, and scum from the other team pile on, are there others who meet the criteria? > > Snfaulkner’s giving me a different vibe toDay, I’m not feeling my D2 vote. > Idle came back with three options, including asking to be subbed out, but people, even the mods, jumped on the lynch me or modkill me suggestion, and he reacted. > I thought I saw something in nesta’s votes but no, feeling neutral now. > I’ve been suspicious of Prof.P’s motives for his lurker fixation, while attracting attention, it’s easy to be consistent across games, and there’s always the choice of which lurker to vote. Switching to third parties breaks with this routine, either to avoid the heat (badly!), or in response to the criticism. But focusing on removing the third parties and only then, once they’re out of the way, is just a terrible strategy but it breaks with the ploy which is a good sign. > > Other options right now are: > > - Boozy for not needing to come up with other suspicions > - Johnny Bravo for the N0 post nonsense, a fixation on Meeko, arguing for the masons to claim, not wanting to discuss strategy at Night, his #520 - Idle did not request to be modkilled > - Inner, his out of the blue question to Pleo N1 was texbook active lurking and is stuck in my head > - Scathach, Zeriel, Hawkeyeop, Cookies - I have a feeling they’re posting about not being able to play, or about catching up, or about going back and doing something, but not delivering > > I think Diggit is a good option today > D1#249 Diggit is 8th on Colby, no mention of Toejam on 5 votes > D1#264 Switches to snfaulkner for commenting on Colby’s meta > D1#282 Asks for proof of colby’s meta > D1#393 To Drain, explains why voted snf due to defense > D1#747 To Normal, denies seeing the train on Colby, reiterates reason for SNF vote > D2#230 To Johnny Bravo, is pinged by comments about scum not knowing who to defend, suggests they slightly defend all non-scum, revotes snf > D2#250 fixes vote color > D2#255 mini-Wow on snf, lots of fluff > D2#547 Comments on flaws in Paul’s plan for a VT claim > D2#552 Maybe there’s something to the delay in brewha’s switch, asks other holders > D2#558 Switches to Crys, does not believe there are two masonic groups > D2#596 Seems to think Crys is claiming to be on town’s side, not 3rd party? As if she’s counter-claiming the masons? > D2#606 Argues to get rid of 3rd parties, who knows what powers they could have or get > D2#816/820 Didn’t notice Lakai subbed back in > D3#368 Maybe Sario prevented an NK, wonders why people are not paranoid about the cult. Suggests that revealing the other switchholder would prove cultists are hostile? > D3#400 Finds cultist description fishy, concerned what happens once the re-group > D3#519 votes Thing Fish for list of town leans without reasoning > D3#695 Realises his mistake in #368, Crys has a scum switch > D3#691 fixes vote color again > D3#693 wants a cultist to die, considers wolves false-claiming scum > D3#695 does not trust people who say they think other players are town - does not mention other lean listers > D3#698 Continues surmises about crys as wolf, but no vote anymore? "Food for thought"His participation is light but looks OK, maybe a heavy focus on the 3rd parties, lots of confusion - missing Lakai subbing in, formatting votes, mistakes - a sign that he’s putting on a show maybe, I disagree with his stance on leans - especially in this game since no-one except the masons could really know that another player is town, but it’s his votes, from SNF for town leans, to Crys for 3rd party, then to Thing Fish for town leans (why is SNF good now?) and still coming up with plenty of reasons why he should still be voting Crys or Sach, feels forced to me, like he’s keeping up appearances. > **Vote DiggitCamara** > [@jsgoddess](#): > > I too am really bothered by DiggitCamara, especially the vote on Thing Fish for something snfaulkner, Angel, Koldenar, and I did too (maybe others. I just glanced back to get a rough idea of the number). It feels like someone grabbing something in passing and trying to make a big deal of it. > > In short, every time I notice DG, I feel like he’s doing something weird. > [@Hoopy\_Frood](#): > > So since I’m the only one voting Boozy right now, I’d be happy to vote one of my other suspicions if people are so inclined. > > DiggitCamara’s been pinging me this game, and not just for the Crys bandwagon. Guiri’s WOW does a good job of explaining it. /Oog I have to run of to the hospital to have my head examined. Some of you might find that assuming 😃 I will finish my reading on Diggit when I get back. But in short to **Paul** - I am very suspicious when a player votes with flawed logic and post about switches and cults but fail to notice the game taking place around him… ---

> [@Khameleon](#): > > Seriously? I was right about **Thing Fish** being scummy and that makes me suspicious? First of all, you were not “right” about anything. You made what you admitted at the time was an OMGUS vote. Let’s look at the interaction again. Thing Fish voted for you in D3#638. First he says that ToeJam is probably lying scum. Then he says that ProfP should be a lynch contender rather than Idle. Then he says he did a reread on you. > [@Thing\_Fish](#): > > I did a reread on **Khameleon**. I don’t have time to do a full WoW right now (not that it would take long, his first post Today just took him all the way up to 13 posts), but it’s almost all fluff and discussion of game mechanics. He didn’t vote Day One and voted for Brewha Day Two. More on this in a moment. Let’s look at Meeko’s vote on you in D3#319 > [@Meeko](#): > > Khameleons blend in, right? Can I poke the Khameleon with a stick? Will it show it’s true colors if I do? 😛 Meeko’s vote actually kind of sucked, he never followed up on it, and it stayed on you through the end of the day. So here’s your response to Thing Fish’s vote: > [@Khameleon](#): > > Okay, so I felt that **Meeko’s** vote on me was fair as it was primarily a poke for not being very active in the game. But your vote **Thing Fish** feels different. Almost all fluff? I haven’t posted much because I don’t want to post fluff - your definition of fluff must be really different than mine. And I voted for **Brewha** , along with how many others? A vote on a player who was caught in a lie? The discussion of how the switched work was a legitimate discussion and did get us some clarification from the mods. This vote feels to me like it’s being cast by someone scummy who knows my alignment is Town and has knowledge about me, possibly from an investigation or whatnot. > > It might be OMGUS but **FOS Thing Fish**. Meeko’s vote is fair even though he basically ghosted after placing it. But Thing Fish, who built a (weak) case, is apparently scummy for building it. But it’s **this** line that makes you look suspicious. **This vote feels to me like it’s being cast by someone scummy who knows my alignment is Town and has knowledge about me, possibly from an investigation or whatnot.** This makes no sense at all. Scum really couldn’t care less what alignment you are - they need to kill everyone who isn’t on their team. And there’s nothing in his post that would suggest he somehow knows you’re Town rather than a cultist or a Mafioso. No, that entire post feels manufactured. It 100% sounds like you’re creating an opportunity to a) declare that you’re town and b) do so in a conversation with someone that you know will someDay flip scum. Then you vote for him. So now he’s got a safe/worthless vote on you and you’ve got a safe/worthless vote on him. This is a pretty common scum tactic. Manufacture a little scuffle between teammates, get some pro-town votes on the record. And then, the cherry on all of this is your response to my comment about pinging: > [@Khameleon](#): > > Seriously? I was right about **Thing Fish** being scummy and that makes me suspicious? This is you taking credit for something that you can’t reasonably take credit for. The only way you were “right about Thing Fish being scummy” in the context of your exchange is if we agree that you knew it all along. ---

When does the Day start? The [plum pudding](http://alembic.com/club/messages/411/26530.jpg) is a custom guitar made by Alembic. I just liked it. I agree with Johnny Bravo up there^ re. Khameleon. I don’t believe Pleo or Diggit is “vindicated” by the Thing Fish and jsgoddess flip. It only tells us that they’re likely not to be wolves. Scum this game has to scumhunt too and has a smaller pool to hunt from than town/3P. Both Pleo and Diggit could very well be mafia. ---

Oh, my user name was invented by some one this board…err… I forget. **Terrifel** , maybe? I vaguely remember being irritated by being confused with **Diogenes the Cynic** for the umpteenth time (my former user name was Diomedes) and offering either booze or squid as a prize for whomever came up with the best replacement. ---

In reference to **Prof Pepperwinkle** , this was stated, > [@AngeloftheNorth](#): > > My unshakeable faith stems from the apology. This is an obvious Cultist breadcrumb. **AngeloftheNorth** has successfully investigated **Prof Pepperwinkle** as a fellow LUTHA. You two might as well publicly claim now. Some of us are willing to give the Cult time to confirm their claim. But by hiding from us you’re simply reinforcing the case that you’re not non-exclusive. ---

What do you think “vindication” means? In my case I feel vindicated because 1. Not only did my ping work correctly (I spotted a strong indicator for someone who was a wolf) but it also irked another wolf who, in her post told us she had actually used the same reasoning. Meaning that, at least on the wolf team, by believing the claptrap phrase of “perfect knowledge isn’t a valid indicator during this game because we have 2 scum teams” they have let their guard down and displayed said “partial perfect knowledge” 2. Obviously “vindication” does not mean I am not in any of the scum teams. Or third party. In the eyes of any of our townsfolk I should be viewed as a suspicious character… just like everyone else And to answer Total Lost’s two questions: 1. You ask why one post pinged me when I disregarded a few other people’s posts that seem just the same? Look at the posts you cited. Those were comprehensive lists of suspicion which, in context, give you far more of an idea of what people think, instead of a list of “townfolk” without context (which was what Thing Fish put down) 2. I emit votes based on “flawed logic”. Like I said, what you feel is “flawed logic” actually spotted two scum folk. How many have you spotted with your “logic”? And also, the thing with me is that in a game of this size I try to spot something interesting and hang on to that. I put on some kind of blinders, if you will, and let noise fly by (in this case Idle Thought is a pretty good example of noise) ---

I’m feeling good about Paul and Total Lost right now. I think Bufftabby is third party. I’m neutral on Bill who I previously suspected. I still have a scum lean on TexCat. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro ---

Plum Pudding I feel good about, but that just may be because we agree on everything.
