Yup.Yeah, but a dayroleblock? Is that an actual thing? Doesn't matter, we can burn that bridge while we cross it.
The point is, he made a probably verifiable claim. No hanging Jones today.

Thats what I'm screaming.like...did i miss something during my skim? do i have to actually read something more than that az has no idea how our town roles work?
Seems oddly random but alrightLies.Wow a lot of shit has happened, I'll make a catch up post today.
Unvote
Vote CM
Agree with this sentiment, entirelyI agree with the sentiment, of course. We can't lynch Jones because he's made such a strong/verifiable claim. He's either town or hanged scum tomorrow
Fair but ask him a question FFSI'm annoyed by lurking, I want him to contribute.
In this game, that's a thing.Yeah, but a dayroleblock? Is that an actual thing? Doesn't matter, we can burn that bridge while we cross it.

Are you saying that's one of your invention ideas or part of your role?In this game, that's a thing.Yeah, but a dayroleblock? Is that an actual thing? Doesn't matter, we can burn that bridge while we cross it.

He shouldn't need to ask a question. We're how far into day one and CM has posted twice. Once in RVS and again to say "Oh, I'm going to catch up."Fair but ask him a question FFSI'm annoyed by lurking, I want him to contribute.

@CM, what do you think of Azrael, Jones, and Dechs?
This is piss poor logic. You can't say he's a lurker and then say his lynch would provide information for analysis. As town, this really makes no sense on page 3 of day 1He shouldn't need to ask a question. We're how far into day one and CM has posted twice.

@CM, what do you think of Azrael, Jones, and Dechs?
At this point, I really don't care whether he's scum. I'
d be willing to lynch him because even if it's a mislynch, it gives us a wagon to analyze. I'd much rather mislynch a townie who doesn't contribute than one who does.
This doesn't make you any less scum in my mind.Yeah, you missed the part where people take deep breaths and use logic to analyze things.like...did i miss something during my skim? do i have to actually read something more than that az has no idea how our town roles work?
Occam's razor prefers the most simplistic solution. Your scenario requires me to:
1. Be scum on a team without builders.
2. Think that all the townies received conventional roles.
3. Miss reading the vanilla PM
4. Miss reading Kpaca talk about building things
"Being dumb", isn't a simple solution to explain it,
it's a complicated clusterfuck requires four separate conditions to all be true. It's also completely out of character for me, as even Kpaca's admitted.
That's opposed to the simple explanation of a townie who mistook the guy who tried to counter-claim Kpaca as someone who *could* actually (and was trying to) counter-claim Kpaca, by claiming to have a special affinity for vigging people.
This whole thing annoyed me yesterday when it happened. I asked Azrael a direct question, which Dechs chose to expand on instead of letting Azrael answer it.Inventions. The PM calls them inventions, but until they're built, to me they're just plans.Dechs only said that one of his plans was for a vig power. Do you know what he meant by plans?
Well, now I do. Originally, I thought it was something that came to him with his role PM that set him apart.[quote=&

Apologies, that's a mistake on my part. I wasn't thinking of it as a direct question to Az. I read it more along the lines of "Dechs, your wording is fucked up" and I tried to clarify.This whole thing annoyed me yesterday when it happened.

Why did DK feel the need to chime in when I was
clearly asking for Az's interpretation of DK's wording? Perhaps he's running interference.
That IS a requirement of the slip. Think it through. If any of the scum were builders, the standard operating procedure for mafia is to share those PMs around. If in this scenario there were scum builders, wouldn't work.This doesn't make you any less scum in my mind.
1. No, that's not a requirement of your slip. There could be scum that are builders and scum that are not, I would have no idea.
That's actually a completely different argument from Ham's argument, I think. Worse though, b/c there's nothing that actually shows that2. This is also not true. You could believe that some townies have conventional roles. The fact that you don't know how the roles work is the problem.
So you think it's likely that I'm scum that just *forgot* how each role works? Even if that were true, or likely, how would that make any more sense than a townie who forget how the roles work? What makes that more likely to come from scum?3. It wouldn't surprise me at all if you read the sample pm or missed the sample pm. Either way, you slipped and then backpedaled.
So here, your argument is that I failed to understand the sample role PM, as scum, with a team without builders and/or discussion of what building is, and that without understanding that I somehow misunderstood how building works (again, show me any post ITT where that actually happens), and that *somehow*, this is a mistake that is so much more likely to come from scum that it's a slam dunk case.4. I doubt you missed what kpaca said, but that doesn't mean you understood it, or what DK said in response. DK was not "counter claiming" per say, he was questioning the speed at which kpaca claimed his day vig
would be ready (a legitimate question that I asked myself when I read kpaca's claim).
1. Flavorgaming: Neither Lord Business nor Bad cop were builders if I remember the movie correctly. So it's actually likely that the scum team has no building powers.This doesn't make you any less scum in my mind.Yeah, you missed the part where people take deep breaths and use logic to analyze things.like...did i miss something during my skim? do i have to actually read something more than that az has no idea how our town roles work?

I'll know soon enough whether you are lying or not, assuming kpaca doesn't end you first.
I asked that question after quoting a post by Azrael, referring to you in the third person by name. How could you misinterpret who I was talking to? If I asked you "Dechs, what do you think Dechs meant by XYZ?" you'd think I was retarded.Apologies, that's a mistake on my part. I wasn't thinking of it as a direct question to Az.

I'm sure there wouldn't be any feasible benefit to the town worth even talking about from a plan that could potentially mass roleblock everyAlso, Az's plan is anti-town. Committing valuable town building time to a "everything is awesome" device instead of powerful individual creations seems foolish. Historically, scum can submit a kill and use their night action simultaneously. Requiring townies to press an awesome button instead of using nighttime devices can only protect the scum team if there are traditional investigative town roles in the game.
Aside from referring to my previous reply, did any of the people drinking the collective kool-aid on this bandwagon actually go back and read the posts in question to track what said "piss-poor conclusions" were, or are you just listening to one another's sound bites?4. This is key. Everyone else seemed to know what I meant by "one of my three plans" and Az jumped to some piss poor conclusions for an experienced player who received a Town PM along the lines of our Builder PMs.

I find it unlikely that you misunderstood my post, Mr Grammer[sic] and Irony Police.
Well when you consider I also think you are scum, 2.How many people are you going to try to kill off this game for bad logic tells?How does it give us a wagon to analyze. It's be a lynch of a lurker in a nine person game, a lynch you spearheaded under the guise of lynch a lurker. What will you gain analysis wise from having people follow your own train of thought?
What you are describing is a contrived attempt to push a mislynch. I am happy with my vote of you since I'm going to shoot Az tomorrow. Gg scum.
Dechs is town. Scum wouldn't counter-claim you the way he did, the lurker frustration is genuine, if misdirected. Dechs is
a classic inexperienced townie, easily one of the top two or three most obvious townies in the game.
I have no idea what game you might be referring to, but get over your fear of Azrael pulling a fast one on you. My posting style under either alignment is probably similar. I can't tell you what the differences are between scum and town Az defending himself, b/c I hardly ever run into this scenario as town - I think the last instance I clearly remember was back in Random Mafia 2, when Axelrod was yawgmoth.This is remarkably similar to how you convinced me to not lynch you as scum before.
Well, we have two people who are claimed vigilantes.
You thought I claimed Vig. Town roles this game don't work that way. My gut is telling me you could not1. Dechs Kaison claimed to have a vigilante role.
2. You claim that your role has the ability to make "offensive weapons", including daykills, faster than normal.
Somehow that doesn't equate to a vigilante claim?
Why do you care what GR is doing and his optimal scum play?And hey, GR, since you're reading the thread, you should probably take a position so that when all this is over you can claim credit for being right about Az being town after all, or join the wagon b/c it's reached critical mass. That's much better scum play for you than hanging around backstage, waiting to see how the wind blows.
I intend to keep on giving my reads up until the moment I'm dead, which I'd prefer to NOT be immediately today, because there's a realistic chance I can pinpoint the entire scum team given a little more material toAz, you scare the shit out of me. I want you to know that.
Well, we have two people who are claimed vigilantes.You thought I claimed Vig. Town roles this game don't work that way. My gut is telling me you could not have known how town roles worked, or you wouldn't have said things like this.1. Dechs Kaison claimed to have a vigilante role.
2. You claim that your role has the ability to make "offensive weapons", including daykills, faster than normal.

But after reading everything you post, I feel like unvoting. EVERY POST. Your explanations are so damn good.
That's exactly what I'd expect from the best player in the game.
Again, Az, you scare the ever loving shit out of me. So here's the deal: I don't think I can risk letting you live. If you're scum, I'll never be sure of it. If you're town, I'm always going to be questioning this (perceived) blunder.
If you really are town, just give me your best reads right now. Help us close out this game after you're gone.
*throws hands in air* Do you HAVE to unilaterally shoot people this game? Like, maybe extract a claim, and get a consensus from the town? I think GR's a decent candidate, but if I had a vig-shot, I wouldn't be pointing it at anyone right now. We have too little to go on. Unilateral vig shots are the techy once-in-thirty-games-it's-a-smart-play play, not something that you do just because.His read is gr as scum so if hes town youre also def town and ill shoot gr.=
