Yates

Thanks for the game, guys. It was... uh... different. [lulz] I swear to you - ask Kaz - I actually thought I was being trolled by the mod at one point! Obviously I had some issues with inconsistent flavor, balance, and fabricated roles that probably shouldn't exist. That's not a mod problem [well - balance maybe] so much as a site meta thing that I evidently need to figure out. I guess if I had known this was going to be a rectal explosion of random PR's and role names I would have played my gambits very differently. Anyway, I hope at the very least I have been able to impress upon you that "lynch all liars" is a terrible policy.

Is this a bad time to replace out?

I believe that was hammer but if not: vote: lyner

I tracked Lyner. No result.

Sorry guys. I took off for Vegas for a week. Flying home tomorrow. Didn't log in or submit a NA. vote: daniel Seems legit.

@Mod - is kill flavor just flavor or indicative of the responsible killing party? Mod: Maybe d:

Ah forget it. You said you "empowered" me N1. Here's what's confusing to me... Reminded me of something... Care to comment? I'm just going to do this while I await your response: Vote: Electric Mango New theory. iSoc didn't do anything N1, while EM and Angel's slot did the killing as two different scum factions.

While we are STILL waiting for Imran... What did you say you did N1, EM?

Imran has until tomorrow morning.

I haven't been "dodging" your question. I answered it wholly. I think his play is scummy but his role claim seems to check out. I can't see scum targeting themselves for a kill so unless someone is going to claim they vig shot Angel? I can't think of a plausible reason for Angel to be dead and I have to say EM's claim checks out - *despite all other evidence to the contrary.* Also, since you can now read the QT, please take a look at what has been posted and verify that everything I've been saying about the neighborhood is true. Specifically: 1. ABD *IS* a neighborizer. Obviously you just confirmed this but there were some doubts about this claim as recently as yesterday. 2. I was added when I claimed I was added [since this was vetted by probable scum]. 3. Muted and Montosh never said ANYTHING in the QT. 4. Sim only made the post about the power outage in MI [which I spent an inordinate amount of time vetting last day phase] and nothing else. 5. No one else was added to the QT. 6. I knew no one else was added to the QT because the mod posts when someone is added stating their name and that they were added. This is important because it illustrates that I've been more truthful than people think outside of what are very clear gambit plays. It will also explain precisely why I would have no reason to believe the neighborizing claim yesterday from a slot I was already scum reading. From my perspective - I had a scum read on the neighborizing Doc slot, the claim made no sense [a role that has never existed before], I had been neighborized so I had a vetted neighborizer, a second neighborizing role ALSO made no sense, and the name claim was [and is] out of context with known flips. Ergo my "village idiot" status is entirely caused by a bastard setup - which SHOULD BE explicitly stated in the rules and wasn't - in a game I had no reason not to assume was normal.

...if scum. I don't like the fact there's a RB claim, now, either. SK [confirmed] Doc [confirmed] JOAT [mostly confirmed] RB? BP? That's too many swingy roles. Who have you RBed so far, killgor?

You know, I realized that as I was typing the above and was just about to post a correction. Feel free to take a look and verify the veracity of my translation of what happened in the QT last night.

EVERYTHING about his play screams scum play. Yet, I can't find a smoking gun and would have expected to see him trip up on a fake claim. He could still be scum but given what we know right this second? I'm thinking Daniel is ABD's scum buddy because BP doesn't make sense with a Doc and JOAT that can self-protect but who the F knows... The only reason I'm not voting ABD right now is because we still have info that needs to come out.

Last night ABD added Iron Helix to the neighborhood. ABD was also eager to ask me how I was going to try to get out of being lynched after the Doc flip - in a manner that comes across as scum gloating. Helix will be able to verify tomorrow unless he is NKed. I told him I was going to track EM to "get him sorted out" in case Lyner was his scum buddy.

Let's recap: - Our apparent "JOAT" refuses to answer question that would do anything that resembles a pro Town demeanor. - We got trolled by our mod with a nonsensical Neighborizing Doc role. - Anything that resembles game balance is yet to be determined [or Daniel is lying]. - Kevin fake claimed an anti-Town role AS TOWN. ... what else am I missing? Yeah. I guess I may as well accept the mantle of "village idiot" under these very specific circumstances.

FWIW - I tracked Lyner last night. No result.

...bah.

My pony is still iSoc.

That's why my vote never waivered.

Potentially kissing up to a vig claim to save his scummy behind? Noted.

Psh... You've already trolled me once...

Obviously, this is all moot. Blask is scum. BUT - you have been the best friend the scum have had all game. You'll live to see tomorrow because you are helping to push their agenda. If he isn't? Feel free to lynch me. When I flip? Take out EM and Lyner - in that order. Yates out until morning or end game - depending on last nights REAL actions.

Dan? Helix? We need this lynch.

BP Tracker? Let's pretend for a second you are this weird incarnation of a JOAT. These are the possible night actions I could observe: JOAT Neighborizer supposed doc SK Possible Vig Scum Some scummy investigator/blocker That's a LOT of night action. Roughly 1/2 the game. And Tracking someone tells you zilch about someone's alignment - as you have all been quick to point out on numerous occasions. That's also 2-3 killing roles. So really, I'm not all *that* powerfull in the long run. Balance. If you replace either the JOAT with a Scum Role Cop or the Doc with a scum doc? Even LESS powerfull. Replace BOTH? You see where I'm going here?
