Need to go and think on this. I want to vote Kyan for being a dick, though. False-guiltying town is never a good gambit. Every few months, someone thinks "hey, this is a great idea", and they're FUCKING WRONG. Scum knows who town is; they know that this must be a fake-out, so they're not worried. It doesn't catch anyone off guard except a townie, and the most likely thing they'll do is claim if they're a PR. It is an absolute bloody stupid thing to do.

In what world do you not lynch a claimed red check

Scum for sure have a blocker

They can just Sit in kyan the rest of the game and kill others. Him being alive isn't a statement one way or the other it's just opening yourself up for wifom

We lynch kyan or we lynch time

No other acceptable option.

And I think lynching kyan is the wrong choice of the two

"Scum if haly is scum" is a pretty ironclad statement made twice in a row telling me you think you have the whole scum team found if haly is wolf?

Some qualifiers would be nice there bub.

Well, obviously I know you are lying, kyan.

But even so. town didn't gain anything rom that gambit. Actually you probably confused town more and made scum more knowledgeable.

So either your pulling another stupid gambit or your scum.

Vote: Crab

There's no point in lynching Kyan today. If he survives until tomorrow we can tell if he's lying. If he doesn't survive, then we'll have our confirmation.

why would scum kill him? he's shot his credibility on some bullshit so unless we lynch one of his supposed checks we have no confirmation and no real reason to trust him.

You forgot 5.: mafia know their own roles, so they know how many Ts town rolled, so they are likely to be able to work out whether a claim is safe or not. It could be mafia know there can't be a cop, and are claiming a cop because it won't be counter-claimed. By bussing scum Haly as a claimed-cop with no counter-claim, Kyan would be given complete and total town confidence, all the way to end-game.

Ballsy as fuck, but I think our scum have played well so far - we have no real leads outside this claim.
Click to expand...

No, not necessarily. My scum experience in Mini 1 says other wise. While we had more information than town at the start it was still difficult to determine if PR claims were legit.

You think that scum are some perfect superhuman creatures who react perfectly to every situation. I don't think it is the case. In reverse, your townies are dummies who panic on the 1st sign of trouble.

This is a fine point. I'm just going to pretend this didn't happen. I want to go back to where I was before. Lynching Crab and observing Time. Kyan adds... something to the latter but not enough for me to want to press on it today.

I am going to go to sleep. Tomorrow, I'll return to what I wanted to do before this ridiculous derail, which is focus on the events from the fourway tie in the dying hours of D1, there's a lot of material to work with there. Accordingly, I'll leave my vote until I've thought it over, but spiritually my vote is on Timeaisis.

Looks like Kyan pulled a thing. Anyone suggesting lynching him instead of his check is suspicious to me. There is literally no benefit in lynching a supposed cop who came forward without any pressure on him. If his target doesn't end up "antitown", he is a goner, so he has no reason to lie - apart from that gambit of course.

Timeaisis' reaction does not look good given that Kyan was lying at first. I have a pretty good feeling about Haly and how he reacted towards all that nonsense.

Vote: Timeaisis

Follow the cop. I doubt Kyan would lie, I deem him as good enough of a player. There is no incentive in fake cop claiming for him except to save crab as was highlighted from someone else.

Gorlak

After my first readthrough, I got the following impressions:

Kawl was working numbers hard, discussed everything and is a sane member of not lynching cop claim.

Tim was the first one to highlight squidyj' falsy logic. Who in turn becomes more suspicious, but up to a point which could be too much off an anti position to warrant a scum behind it.

Crab's shaky, and undefined point of view feels off as he normally would be more precise and firm.

Gorlak

Speaking of Crab I think he's more likely to be mafia than not.

But I will have to reread who brought up that theory of crab trying to divert attention from himself with that suspect jump from Ouro to LP. Was it Timeaisis? Something to keep in mind and come back to tomorrow.

Haly can you elaborate why lynching crab today solves the riddly around Kyan and Timeaisis? I don't seem to understand the point you are making.

Looks like the only one not standing out is melonrabbit. I have my eyes on you. I wasn't able to relate to your argument against LP and since then you somehow vanished, kind of coast through this game. Feels very neutral-ish.

Will look over the scenario post during the next 2 hours, because I wasn't able to focus on them yet.

CCS can you please give your impression of everyone reacting to Kyan? You made it clear you believe him 90% and are willing to follow, but what do you think about the others? Anything standing out? Someone feeling distant or trying to avoid certain topics?

Crab and I are not a scum team. I've had my vote on crab since the beginning of the day. Either you think I'm really hardcore bussing him, or one of us isn't scum (and I bet you can't guess who it is!)

Lynch crab today. If I survive the night, I'll roleclaim and you'll get the full picture. If I die, you'll see my role and it'll all make sense. Either way it probably ends in a kyan death, because he's lying too. It is interesting what kyan has attempted.

Now I'll entertain myself with propositioning that kyan and Crab are the actual scum team.

I mentioned the increased interest in yourself because I got the feeling that some scum might plant the seeds of distrust towards you for your eventual lynch, since you did get some attention on d1. And I also went for the low-hanging fruit of "mabby someone openly defends time", nobody did but like I said, wasn't that much of a chance with that one.

The Kyan-Crab thing will be interesting. Maybe we both survive the night and scum try to get us both lynched on consecutive days. Maybe not. But when you flip, does the Kyan-Crab-Time team make any sense? Would've been lots of role playing for sure. But there is so much to consider in this scenario that I think some fact would just make it very unlikely to be the case. Would the scum know the rng and the roles in the game and thus be able to pull this fake cop gambit? I guess the reasoning for it would be that before I claimed, Crab was about get a new necklace and Time had some heat on him but still. If the scum team knew the roles, would there be a sk? If yes, they would not go for it, would they...

Million things to consider in a scenario that is not true since I am the law and you are not. But Crab, what is his alignment? loldunno

I don't understand. Can you elaborate please?
Click to expand...

I'm just speculating about scenarios that might not even exist because I haven't done the math nor will I. The specific one was such in which scum could, by knowing MMM and their own roles, get the info that they could / might be able to pull of a fake cop claim. IF there was such a scenario, would there be a SK in it too? IF there was a SK, why would scum ever then pull this gambit, when in course of the gambit someone might speculate about the gambit being a scum gambit.

I know, it is a bunch of nonsense and that was the point as I wanted to illustrate that I think that a Kyan-Crab-Time team seems very unlikely (I know I am town, I was just speculating from a outside POV). Of course since I did not bother with the math, I can't be sure if this is the case.

I was for lynching crab yesterday as well, if you recall. I also outlined why he's a good lynch today. Hell I'm still voting him even now. Why would I be promoting a crab lynch if we're both scum? Either one of us is not scum or we are the worst scum team ever.

To the second point: what is kyan is not town and lying?
