Lenglon:[/b] I can't speak for everyone else, but since the game is at least somewhat a bastard things might not be as they seem. The information provided so far is very interesting, so I'm trying to see where it takes me.
oh, and I'm reasonably certain the DS is Leafsnail, not ZU.
Why?
Patterns, 1 moment, this's going to take a while, leaf has 45 posts after all, and context is important here.
ok, everyone remembers the whole
wincon debate?
well, Leaf threw me for a loop there, because the key to the thing was based on information not being public that
actually was.
now then, at first, I thought he might have legitimately missed the detail, but then when I pointed it out for the second time, he
doesn't follow up on it.
meaning that the information
didn't spark any new thoughts on the matter. that information both showed that he had not actually confirmed himself as town, but also that his target wasn't confirmed as town. additionally it would have been easy to show where NQT
had read my post and wincon statement, yet he doesn't point this out. he completely abandons his case on the person he thinks is scum despite useful information to make a case with being shoved in his face. this doesn't make sense if he's town. this doesn't make sense if he's scum either. both of them would want to have NQT lynched. the DS however wouldn't care, and is
trying to act scummy, but not be obvious about it.
additionally look at the post where he switches from voting NQT to voting Tiruin. he still thinks NQT is scum, and NQT's head is on the chopping block, but he shifts his vote to a third party, for reasons that had been hashed out over the past several pages with no new information. it was a blatant bandwagon vote, and yet again, there is no benefit to himself from his actions be he town or scum.
next, on day 2, he decided to take things up a notch. he refuses to claim and simply answers questions asked of him by NQT. he then proposes a self-contradictory cult theory based on my behavior. insisting that me being picky about where information comes from is a sign that I am desperate for information. again, this is too crazy for scum, and too crazy for town.
finally, I don't see how he can be scum from the above points, but I do see how he could be the Death Shaman or town. in either case, the action for us to take remains the same - don't lynch him. so I'm willing to take a gamble on a weaker read/case and assume for now he is the Death Shaman. I honestly suspect that ZU was town, and simply had an annoying ability that kept him from flipping for no good reason, or that he was killed in a special way, and that we haven't seen the last of him or his capabilities.
the main thing that confuses me is why Leaf didn't lie when questioned by NQT, he stood to gain from being lynched after all.
Lenglon Unless someone is lying about their age or whether they have children, you are the crone by process of elimination. If you're not the crone, it behooves you to find out who is.
well, I'm not a wtich, so, I suspect that one of the people claiming Mother is the crone, simply because I'm not the crone, and that looks like the easiest lie to make, especially with so many of them.
I'm not fully convinced of the maiden/mother/crone thing, but it makes sense so I'm willing to work with it for now.
