Hey all. Still super time pressured, but things are getting better.
I think it's time to role claim for me.
I'm a Town fortune teller.
Night one I investigated Caz. I picked him because I had trouble reading his interactions with me D1 but his interactions with others seemed reasonable (thus an unlikely early lynch) and his scumhunting rather middle ground as well as him being a newer player (a less likely night kill target than a more agressive or high reputation player). So I thought he'd be around for a long time, as I said earlier.
I got the result changer for him, with the results of Rain, Wind, Leaf - my flavor of fortune telling uses runes. I was told that I sat back and pondered this, and that it seems he is a changer.
I spent a LOT of time wondering this, because in past games the flavor of results have often been tuned towards the alignment of the target. Harmless often looks harmless, malevolent often looks malevolent. Those nature symbols look pretty peaceful to me - unless we have some sort of evil nature religion.
Several of my questions D1 sought clarity about possible other hints of a nature-based problem, (like the 'good instincts' of Persus13's claimed attacker). Those panned out.
Night two I investigated Max White. I picked him for similar reasons to Caz - I'm not suspicious of him, I'm having trouble reading him, and his play's middle ground... Maybe that DOESN'T mean someone's likely to be around to end game, but I still expect that trend.
I got the result of survivor for him, with the symbols Cup, Bread, and Cloth. My character did not lean back and ponder this - this one was simple to her. These are simple things, Max White (refered to as a he in my PM) must be a survivor.
My initial analysis of these results were that he was not-Scum (maybe 3rd party), because I was looking for -nature- flavor to Scum. His three runes are all man made objects. I had no intentions from that result to claim.
But now Max White has claimed an investigator role - and the 'best' one there is (in my opinion) - the one that gives the clearest results possible. I do not see how he could possibly have given me the result survivor while having an investigative role. This has convinced me that my time to claim is now.
notquitethere:
Imp— you presented no cases yesterday and then voted the vote-leader when there was no possible other alternative.
Medium lean Scum - but seems to be trying to offer self as target - if so, protecting who and why? Caz seems likeliest target to protect.
Why would I try to protect Caz? I thought he was most likely scum. And before you ask, I also thought Jim was most likely scum too and that's why my vote was on him.
There is no measure to my lack of time these days. I'm doing the best I can, the fastest I can. And I'm damn determined not to replace out or let any of my games down - that said I'm having a hard time keeping up with any of them. However, I -am- keeping up and am very determined to do so.
I don't know why you'd protect Caz, protect in the sense of 'lynch me instead of him', which is what you appeared to be trying to do, unless you are also Scum, he is the 'leader' of the Scum team, and you believed that he had much more value than you did. I don't know how likely that is, how it would work, or why you'd do it for any other reason. However several of your 'weirder' actions, which I don't see why you'd do for any other reason - some of your D2 actions appear to be saying 'lynch me'. I don't see any other reason why you'd do this than to prevent someone else's lynch - and as you point out when I place my vote - there was only one lynch choice.
However I could have used my vote however I saw fit. If I disagreed with Caz as a suspect and wanted -you- lynched, I couldn't have voted you without creating a tie - I'd have to REALLY be sure that Caz was Town to want to do that - but I could have presented my case as to why Caz should not be voted, why you should be lynched, and why I was not voting to avoid the tie.
If I thought anyone else should have been the lynch - I could have voted for them. They wouldn't be the lynch, Caz still would be. But my vote and all that my vote means would have been where it should be.
Nice to see that my analysis was vindicated— I said Caz was scum and he was.
I call bs, because of your final post D2:
CAZ Are you really going to lie over or are you going to get in here and post? You better not be town because if you are I'll be seriously disappointed in you.
Your next to last post D2 fails to support your statement too:
SCUM
Jim - was previously very townish but now pursuing a case that he has twice undermined with his own lies and hypocrisy
Max - Tunnelling the same player two days in a row, the second time sheeping someone else's weak case
Caz - Parking his RVS vote on Nerjin leading to the latter's lynch
Nerjin - Doing nothing all day 2 after being resurrected as a possible bad dude
Tiruin - Has tunneled Caz almost the entire game. Has she no other suspicions?
Imp - Has yet to press a lynch case as we're nearing the end of the day despite being generally active
Cmega - Mostly comes across as inexperienced but has done nothing all day
Persus - Wishy-washy with his use of the vote (why vote Caz certain he's scum and then immediately vote someone else?)
Toony - Low early-game engagement (probably excusable due to time commitments), but fair engagement since
Toaster - Pretty reasonable play so far, though Kleril said some dubious things
NQT - The Raddest Priest In Town
TOWN
So if you were SURE Caz is Scum, then you're even more sure that Jim and Max are Scum, huh?
Imp— you've paid attention to previous Supernatural games. What scenario best fits given that we know there's a cult?
I need to think that over more. I will be, as time allows.
Tiruin:
Imp: NQT did claim Priest here. I don't think Priests can protect (basing on the quote he's quoting of you).
Wrong meaning for 'protect'. I'm not talking about a night action, I'm talking about his posts in day play - he was playing in a way that to me looks like saying "lynch me". I don't mean he stuck up for Caz, chainsaw-attacked Caz's attackers - I mean he did the 'wounded bird thing' that certain bird species do if you get too close to their nest - I believe he acted 'wrong' to try and draw the lynch. Why? The only reason I can see is to draw attention away from another place, or other places. The most likely was the lynch lead - but I don't know.
about Max White:
He has claimed to inspect notquitethere and get benign, to inspect Persus13 and get malevolent.
Notquitethere has opened the day with a vote on Max White, for reasons he stated near the end of D2.
If we lynch Persus13 D3 and get a Town result, then we obviously lynch Max D4 - I assume we get a Scum result?
Then we decide if we want to lynch notquitethere or not. It's already D5 at that point.
We had two night kills last night. Neither are kills of high powered active people. Is there any chance we're dealing with a conversion cult? I... I don't think so. But just in case, I lean towards lynching notquitethere first at this point. There's something -weird- about this set up and especially weird about notquitethere's behavior. I'm going to think more about it and I'm talking about it so everyone else can think about it too. I don't think notquitethere 'usually' makes this many contradictions in his play and I'm burning my mind trying to understand why he is now.
Meph Wait - do we KNOW Cmega3 is dead? Or just 'disappeared'?
Extend.
