Script: Could I ask your list of plausible reads on anyone ELSE but 4maskwolf? If he so far is your target for scum...it would be strange for him to go along logic of scum/changeling notions that would make him stick out from the rest in that context if scum hit you.
Meaning: You're really sure scum hit you? What makes it so?
This. I confronted Varee earlier and didn't get a very satisfactory answer. Also, there's next to no reason why he should have used that power the way he did, unless he is scum. Frankly, I'm suspecting that 4maskwolf and Varee are scumbuddies, with an unknown third mafia member. My hypothesis is that 4maskwolf is currently trying to distance himself from Varee, who is to be bused for the good of the scum team. The reasoning behind this is that 4maskwolf encouraged claiming, which is blatantly maskfishing, and, at first, tried to say that changeling was a crapshoot for scum, and then accused me of being scum because I was
thinking too hard about using changeling as scum. Discouraging scumhunting is not particularly town-sided. If you can't think like your enemy, how can you confront them competently?
Anyway, aside from Varee and 4maskwolf, I'm not entirely sure. Here's where everyone stands:
Reverie: Slightly town leaning; null read atm. She seems like a competent player and hasn't dropped any clues to her being scum. I'd like to see her reaction to all this new stuff before I make any further comment.
Tiruin: Town leaning. Confronts others on their bull and is actively scumhunting. Moderate town read.
Toaster: Null read, VERY slightly scummy. Needs to get back in here so I can get a better read on him. If I'm not wrong, he's said nothing since last friday, and it's all rules stuff and banter before then for the most part.
Deathsword: Almost entirely inactive. Literally one post in the game, promising more questions and never delivering. Null read, and dangerous for town if he's inactive up until the vote.
Toony: Slightly town. Strange RVS/pressure voting. Has done a bit of scumhunting, but nothing particularly damning nor exonerating. Has brought up some good points that felt like scumhunting.
Silthuri: Not particularly active. I've seen some reports and reads, but I would enjoy more scumhunting. Null read.
TolyK: More null than scum, though there's been a few points that made me question. Needs to be a bit more clear about his points for me to see him as town-sided.
Jiokuy: Fairly active. More than slight town read. Definitely new, but doing a decent job so far.
Flabort: Null, leaning scum with certain issues. Random voting late into the day, after real content has appeared. Random voting by blatant coin flip, too. Some decent points, but still a little scummy.
Err, why or how did it screw him over? It makes him a mirror match
Sadly not. It makes me unable to use powers for the remainder of the game unless another townie wastes a power on me to *possibly* heal me. Unless Varee wanted to use changeling again (which he would have to purchase with points since he'd used one-shot), there's no real way I would have a viable power role from here on out. Which is fine, if Varee is scum, since I expect him to play for his team's wincon. If he's town, he just massively screwed up and is likely a liability. Also, since he now has my resurrection, we can get a hard flip on him without removing a voting member from the town.
By logic, Varee is pretty much town (or is owning up to the changeling for townie points, which in my intuitive opinion, does not speak well of him as scum regardless)
That or he's being coached so that he doesn't reveal his scumbuddies. Just like we, as town, are playing to our wincon regardless of our own deaths, so too is every mafia member.
Script, check my question before checking this.
What made you think the one who changeling'd you is scum? You seem to be more bordering on emotional reaction here than anything else.
Nah, I'm not really all that beaten up over it. If Varee is town, then I'm just really disappointed that he's done so much damage and muddied the scumhunting waters, as it were. If he's scum, then at least we've found one of them. Only a mafia member (or, I suppose, a very misguided townie) would risk using a harmful changeling this early in the game, when you're so much more likely to hit town than scum.
