@RGU: I was surprised by the "Dark Cosmos" because it's apparently superfluous to the mafia result. I initially thought it may have significance as yet undiscovered, but I have to admit my own result had more flavor than I was expecting so it's probable our mod is having some fun with this.
@blueturtle: You seem quite sure that the only way Spin can back up his claim is with town-aligned doctor powers XOR by directing the mafiakill. Is there no other scenario where Spin has powers at least close enough to have a chance at simulating doctor? Mafia keeping hands-off wouldn't stop an SK, for instance.
@IcyTea
And what makes you think I'm hiding something?
Mostly gut feeling, nothing truly substantial. You're reading as town, but there's something off, that I can't quite describe, in how you're making your case.
There's a certain degree of reductionism in blueturtle's case(s): either Max is authentic town doctor or he's lying with pants on fire. While I agree that it feels unlikely for a "mafia" result to occur on another type of scum, turtle isn't fully considering how third parties might intersect with the main protagonists' claims and burdens of proof (especially Max's). I'm a bit put off intellectually, although my own gut still thinks it might be a case of town not caring about affiliation distinctions among scum.
@hector
I want people to comment on this, because were going to flip one of these two players at day end, so having direct comments that can be looked at by players is nice, . . . .
How about this? I believe RGU is correct that Max Spin is pulling out the emotional stops. But Spin's best line so far may be the point that "I'm willing to die to prove my point" is also an essentially emotional plea that this is important so we'd better listen or else. Strip that off and it is just one person's word against another's.
Is it weird to say that at this point TricMagic's scoffing makes me more sympathetic to RGU? Tric says he doesn't want to talk about it and then goes on to quote his own apparent claim for part-time cop on top of being a miller and having guns for sale. It's an odd brand of Honesty there, Tric.
PPE: and what is that supposed to be about?
