btw i think we deserve an extension


Pete d just exposed himself as quailman`s scumbuddy. First of all, who says we have a second killing party, the extra kill might very well have been a vig. Why didn`t the "second killing party" kill on N1? He jumped through hoops today trying to save quailman, and when someone finally comes with role info, he must lynch that player ... of course. Someone please hammer quailman so we can proceed tomorrow with pete d.

If, agains all logic, I`m lynched today, don`t forget to vig quailman and lynch pete tomorrow.

Well, this is a dilemma. I find myself more believing Quailman's claim than doubting it, and then TopHat claims cop and say that he found Quail to be scum. Do I now vote for someone I earlier believed was scum but more recently believed was town, or do I keep my vote on Tseirp, a player who I couldn't get a decent read on for awhile but more recently believe to be scum?

On another note, I am looking on pete d and TopHat with a little more suspicion based on the last few posts.

Chances are TopHat is either a real cop or scum. However, relying on the second killing party to fix our mistake if we lynch a cop today is a horrible idea. There was no second night kill on night 1, so there may very well not be a second night kill on night 3. We can't rely on an SK to right our wrongs. We have to be as sure as possible that we are lynching scum tonight.

(italics mine)
TopHat tries to discount pete's reliance on a second killing party to get the job done as I did, but then he relies on the second killing party to avenge him if he is lynched today. I don't understand that at all.

While either pete or TopHat may be scum, what it looks like from their posts is that both are panicking townies who are desperately trying to get some scum lynched before the deadline hits and we go to no lynch. pete sees TopHat's claim as scummy, so he immediately jumps on him so hopefully we can get him lynched before the deadline. TopHat says he has found scum in Quailman and he sees pete d's actions as scummy, so he is trying to kill two birds with one stone.

My updated opinion of general scumminess.
Tseirp 9/10
Livingod 8/10
TopHat 6/10
Quailman 6/10
pete d 5/10
Pooky 5/10
Green Crayons 4/10


I really don't want this game to go to night without a lynch, but I want that lynch to be a good one. At the moment I'm not sure whether to believe TopHat or Quailman. Hopefully in the next 14 hours or so we can get a few more people voting for Tseirp, but as that is unlikely to happen, I'll be checking back later today to decide if I want to switch my vote to QM.

Friends, please provide guidance.

That'd be a good point Pete D, if we knew her sanity.

Given that we don't we'd just be wildly stabbing in the dark.

Pretty bloody amazing though that once it rains it pours enh?

@ Pooky: isn't sanity revealed upon death?

@ Tophat: a vig is a second killing party. i didn't say a second scum party. And you were the last "cop" to come up with role info, which was weak imo. Your argument sucks.

@theo: In a normal situation, i think relying on a 2nd killing party would be a bad idea. However, they would have no choice: if they don't kill scum, they lose, whether they're a vig or SK. The only other possibility is 2 groups of 2: in that case, we'll still be here tomorrow, and can lynch the confirmed scumbag.

I thought that lynching TopHat was a good strategic move. I personally think he is scum, but aside from that, i thought that it was pretty much guaranteed to get us to day 4 with a much better vantage point. BUT i acknowledge that a mafia RB or doc could really mess with that plan. So... unvote but FOS: TopHat

TopHat strikes me as trying to get Qman lynched today quickly and livingod (presuming Qman is innocent) killed tonight, providing a scum victory. Whilst his (and theo's) not requesting an extension could be a simple oversight, it could also be trying to force a Qman lynch / no lynch. Then again, Qman also did not request an extension.

btw, how is Mrs White an investigator? I thought she was a murderer.

REQUEST AN EXTENSION Y'ALL

I should be back before deadline hits to make a final vote / decision.

I guess an extension would give me more time to sort things out in my head.

Vote: Deadline Extension

I, too, will stick with Tseirp for now. TopHat may have just been responding to Pooky's call for cops to speak up, and he did vote for Quailman right at the beginning of the day, so it could be a valid investigation result. On the other hand, his presentation leaves something to be desired. I am more confident in Tseirp being scum than I am in either Quailman or TopHat being scum. If we lynch Tseirp and find out that he is scum, we'll definitely have a good target in TopHat tomorrow.

<3 Amb

vote: Tseirp

my change of vote to TopHat was a combination of perceived scumminess and what i thought was a foolproof plan. Without the foolproof plan, i'm left with his scumminess; and i think its a bit less than Tseirp at the moment.

an updated rankings list:
Tseirp 8.5
LO 7
TH 7
Qman 5.5
GC 5 (no read)
theo, Pooky 4

Its also good that GC should have a chance to give his 2 cents again

Of course Mrs. White is an investigator. All the clue characters are investigators (and, to be fair, potential murderers as well).

I may have been the last cop to actually speak out, but I have been the first to pursue Quailman since the start of the day, and I also defended Livingod. Your argument sucks harder.

I'm pretty confident about my Tseirp vote. He does seem scummy, and his role claim of a presumably paranoid (or at least unreliable) character seems like a good cop out--excuse the pun--for when any investigation results he may decide to share with us turn out to be wrong.

Was this an error or a sign that Tseirp's scum buddies are trying to keep him from getting lynched?

OK, so sorry for the excess of delay; I had a long weekend (complete with family emergency) and no computer access. Anyway.


So info that Tophat gave you is correct in that this character is Mrs. White, a cop (or investigator as it were) but I don't know that I share Tophat's belief that I am the "sane" -- cut short; work sucks. I ll finish later, i hope.

Livingod wrote:
Though at this point, I cannot deduce my sanity from my investigation results. I cannot even tell whether I'm naive or paranoid. This, I believe, is due to my insanity and a certain game mechanic. Again, I am not sure about my insanity, I just believe that it fits with my role and night results. My vote on Pooky was to test that certain mechanic.
I want Livingod were to explain in full detail as to why he cannot discern sanity and what mechanic he was testing out. In doing so, he will help confirm his innocence to me based off of limited knowledge I have (and of which I'll divulge upon his revelations)... or, he'll convince me that he's a lying scumbag that's full of it.

I'll put a vote on Tseirp in the following days if nothing amazing pops up to convince me otherwise. His showing up out've nowhere and placing a vote on Quailman is what did it for me, it just smacks of attempting to rush a lynch.

Well, I never received investigation results. It just said that I was stopped by a cop in the road. In fact, in night two, I got nothing at all. I PMed the mod and he said that it was just like N1; no flavor. (Both nights I investigated Pooky) I reckon that there's a good chance that I'm insane due to my role. I also believe that Pooky is an investigation immune scum, but if he shows up as "innocent" to me, an insane cop, his power would be moot. Similarly, if he shows up as "guilty" to me, that would be a contradiction to his power. So Amb decided not to tell me anything.

In case you haven't gotten it:
I investigated Pooky again because I thought I was blocked night 1 (could still be the case)
Yes, the mod's response to my query was pretty passive

That line of logic is absolutely ludicrious, an investigation immune scum would be moot if Amb decided to give "non result" to any cops who might find an innocent guilty.

Here's what REALLY happened(well from what I can discern from the last 2 posts and what you should've easily been able to conclude) GC blocked you, twice, that's why he said what he did.

What completely boggles me is how you can totally miss what GC was implying in his post and come up with that crap attack on me based on complete craplogic. I honestly don't think someone can read a post in which another player asks them to claim their night results to see if it corresponds to their "limited information"(which implies either tracker or roleblocker and more like a roleblocker) and then make that attack on me, like if you were ACTUALLY a cop who was insane and got "no result" for 2 nights and then someone asks you to fully claim results to test if it corrorborates with his/her limited information, the very FIRST thing I would think of in that spot is that GC is roleblocker and RBed you for the past 2 nights, instead you went with a completely different result which to me suggests that you did NOT in fact received 2 "blocked results" and decided to suggest that I'm an investigation immune scum in order to leave yourself an out in case GC did not actually roleblock you

Yeah, I thought my hint was pretty obvious too, but with limited time I didn't want to do a "I want Livingod to tell more," "Why should I tell more," "Because you should," "But OMG why?" "Oh, well, becuase I have limited information" "Oh okay then ____" conversation that would take up a few days.

But whatever. I blocked Livingod two nights in a row. While it doesn't make him innocent, it does mean he isn't the current killer role of any group. Assuming this isn't LOL, that'll help me personally when assessing TopHat's claim on the morrow.

In the meanwhile, Vote: Tseirp.

Tseirp, you say that because you claim that you are after bad cops, not scum, that you have proven yourself innocent. All along I have been assuming that since this is cop mafia, all of the characters are cops. Logically, therefore, the scum must also be cops, just bad ones. I don't think it's a stretch to believe that other people, including yourself, have jumped to the same conclusion. Your statement adds an extra layer of intrigue to your claim, but it far from clears you.

Pooky, GC: Amb's wording left me unconvinced that I was being RBed. Besides, limited information could be said about any power as long as GC targeted me or Pooky.

Besides that, Tseirp is town; unfortunately, we can't use that card again. Theo is scum. Who else is? Please stand up.

Though I'll still remain on the Qman wagon, since it has more momentum and theo and Q are both voting Tseirp.
