1) That's not very convincing. Nothing is actually stopping you from lying, unless you treat that word 'truthful' as sacred. What would you do as mafia if someone asks you "Maximum Spin, please tell me, truthfully, are you scum?"
You're misunderstanding the point here. In that case, I would either ignore the question (most likely, because it's a stupid question) or simply lie. The difference is not that the word 'truthful' is sacred, but that
my promise to answer the question truthfully is. I wouldn't have given that if I was not prepared to follow through.
2) Why did you answer BlackHeartKabal's question then? You didn't consider that to be a RVS question?
You're making the same misinterpretation as Silthuri. I don't mean that "I don't answer RVS questions because I don't do RVS", I mean that I didn't answer your question because it specifically asked what I would do in RVS, and I don't have an answer to that because I don't do RVS. I answered BHK's question because it didn't include any assumptions like that. And this whole point of misunderstanding about what I meant is also why I usually just ignore these questions instead of getting bogged down in dumb arguments about them that inevitably distract everyone.
Also, another question for Maximum Spin:
What's your read on each player that's voting for you?
I don't buy
randomgenericusername's "I just have a gut feeling of wrongness!" line at all. That would be, like, kindergartener level of play or worse if he actually meant that. That whole post just reeks of stirring ambiguity to try to make it easier to get away with voting to lynch a town player while still getting to say "welp, guess I was wrong" afterward.
I'm 95% confident that kingawsume, on the other hand, is just naturally that pompous and doesn't
necessarily imply sinister intent, though I'm certainly not ruling it out.
I'm leaning anti-BHK, but not strongly, yet.
I also haven't been keeping track of who's voting for what, so I don't know who else falls into that category... so I'll just offer my thoughts on everyone, since I'm swapping out as soon as FOU is back anyway.
NQT is probably scum. At this point in the game, the wavefunctions are still mostly uncollapsed so I have very little actual confidence in this assessment, but, if pressed, he(?) would be my second vote after RGU.
I'm only the normal level of suspicious of Tiruin at the moment. If NQT
is scum, however, and especially if RGU isn't, the suspicion level would go way up.
You, in contrast, I'm fairly benevolent toward. I don't currently think you're mafia. it's early yet, of course; that might have changed had things gone differently.
Tawa. Tawa's got something faintly screwy going on, but isn't really on my "probably mafia" list. Keep an eye on that guy though.
juicebox has been pretty inactive, which is often suspicious. At this point, I would probably get on board a bandwagon against him, because, *irrespective* of whether he's mafia or not,
knowing whether he is would narrow down those aforementioned wavefunctions substantially. But I'm not going to throw a vote against him on my own, at the moment, when there are other people I could be investigating.
And lastly, Imic: Imic, how suspicious I am of you would depend entirely on how you respond to that message you should have received last night. If you continue to ignore it, especially now that you know I know about it, well, that would suggest to me that you already have other allegiances.
Incidentally, you know, there's a very important reason for not sharing your suspicions right away: because sharing your suspicions
changes how people react, which changes how your ongoing investigation develops. Watching silently allows you to keep pruning down the possibilities without having to account for the way your own interaction will affect the entangled state.
