> [@NAF1138](#): > > Again, you understand that asking for a hammer when the lynch is everyone voting for Idle except for Idle isn’t the same as ending the Day early right? It could end the Day early, but it essentially ends whenever town wants. You aren’t ready to finish talking, don’t vote Idle until 1 minute before the end of Day. Yes - my understanding of a hammer would be if an overwhelming majority vote for Idle, the day would end early. Either way Gad hasnt raised it , so probably not a major issue, and I think we can filter out Idle if people just dont respond or use his posts from this point on for analysis Do Not Feed The Outed Scum. 🙂 ---

No it has not. When I know more I will say more. I haven’t decided what I will do yet. I was originally planning on targeting myself again. The third party thing was supposed to be funny. Note the question mark. (clear sign of humor). The point was that I don’t think you are scum. ---

NAF backpedeled pretty quickly there. Made a smudge on a person and then quickly retracts it when called on it. Thing is NAF really DOES know Ed is a third party. When Septimus (who is a scum cop, by the way–gets alignment only results, not full role), got the result that Ed was third party, he told it to all of us (on the scum boards). So there’s no reason for NAF (or any of the other scum) to doubt it. I think NAF was subtly trying to set up Ed for a future reason for voting there (which, again, is good–since Ed is third party). ---

It makes no sense whatsoever for a power doubler to be a third party. That is a role that almost by definition requires him to be playing for a team. What’s the point in making one’s enemies stronger? And while it’s possible that he’s scum, he is using his power in a very pro-Town manner so far. So since everyone knows I’m not a cop, I’ll post a trust list. Probable Town: special ed Scuba Ben Leaning Town: Scathach Giraffe Leaning Scum: Lilflower Episkey Probable Scum: NAF Everyone else I have no read on. And I’m not counting Idle, who should start posting Wikipedia articles any minute now. ---

> [@Drain\_Bead](#): > > Episkey > > Probable Scum: > NAF Yes, Episkey and Naf… …and pwnsall and septimus. I know it doesn’t make sense…but that was the result. So somehow things worked in Ed’s favor and he went with it. Or maybe it was something to do with redirections and didn’t come from Ed at all. Or maybe some hugely coincidental crap happened just to make Ed look like he was a double upper. Not saying he is and not saying he isn’t (I don’t know)…but what I do know is that, regardless of what power he has, he’s PFK. I’d be my gaming life on it. ---

Lightfoot and Lilflower aren’t scum. Would I lie to you? 🙂 Nobody is scum save for the four I mentioned…everyone else is either TOWN or THIRD PARTY (save for Ed, who is third party). Septimus, tell them all how you got a third party result on Ed! ---

Anyway, I’m a traitor. NAF really is a mimic (but a scum one). Septimus is a Cop (we learned that back on Night one when he found Peeker was Town and Night two he learned that crackedquads was Town. Night three was the Ed result). Episkey is a Cop too, but a insane or paranoid one. Pwnsall we don’t know what is yet. ---

I don’t suppose Episkey, pwnsall, or Septimus would care to comment on Idle’s asserted treason? ---

Septimus hasn’t been on since he caught me, so he doesn’t know (he lives on the other side of the world and won’t be on until middle of the night). Pwnsall hasn’t said anything either way, although he’s posted many times since I started selling him out. Probably hoping everyone else will just ignore me to. You should see how he’s bitching me out on the scum boards, though. ---

> [@Precambrianmollusc](#): > > Town > Septimus - for the catch of Idle Yep, after we had discussed it for **over an hou** r on the scum boards. Seriously, go back and look how long it was between my accidental outing post and when someone finally noticed it. Almost an hour. Whereas I realized what I had done right away. Hence my going to the scum boards. Hence us figuring out how to give him Town cred. Only thing is…he didn’t know I was a traitor role. ---

> [@Weedy](#): > > They shouldn’t. Idle is trolling. Town deserves to lose if they don’t, at least, look into ONE of them, either by strong investigation or lynching. Because if that doesn’t happen, Town will lose…in which case, I’ll win with scum anyway. Here I thought I’d tip my hand and show my cards, but if you’re going to be like that, hey, have a nice game loss. 😛 ---
