Tbh I wanted to see if anyone would show that they had more than 50$ by outbidding me but then IcyTea claimed that without bidding anyway. Weird stuff. But me having waffles for tea is definitely good for you guys. Well, most of you I guess.

You explaining yourself in riddles then wondering why someone isn't giving you their abilities plainly is funny to me.

All I got from this exchange is that you think I have a powerful town role so you're voting me to try to get me to tell everyone the specifics of it. Ridiculous behaviour. IcyTea31

Do auctions end before a lynch? To make your behaviour even more townie you should bet $51 at the last moment so you can split my money before I spend it all on delicious, delicious waffles.

No, I think you're scum. I see two possibilities: either you're town with a powerful ability, or you're scum planning to double an anti-town action, probably also moderately powerful or better.

If I were scum, I'd stay quiet and block you, as the only possibility would be you having a powerful ability.

There is no mafiakill, so it's much safer to be open about your role than in a normal game. In fact, I'll explain mine in clearer terms. I'm a roleblocker who can't be roleblocked, and can keep roleblocking even after death. I also earn slightly more money per day while I'm alive, including this first day.

You're getting more and more evasive as I put pressure on you, which is suspicious to me, keeping in mind the rules of the game. This all adds up to a stronger mafia than town read, and worth leaving my vote on unless someone scummier shows up.

Do auctions end before a lynch? To make your behaviour even more townie you should bet $51 at the last moment so you can split my money before I spend it all on delicious, delicious waffles.
I'd rather not sacrifice my bank for the cause, as with my extra income I'll be much more likely to outbid scum in the future once something actually worthwhile gets put up to auction.

Yeah, I'm gonna have to give you a hard pass on that. I don't think that rolefishing is really all that justified here.

Also, you literally will never be able to outbid me, so there's no fear here about you stealing this one away from Caz.

If anything, it's on YOU to stop Caz, if YOU feel it's warranted. If he has a game-breaking ability as Town, wouldn't it be equally appealing for the scum to know? Additionally, I'm more likely to see him as Town since he's not trying to save his money for some future event that might happen. Saving your money is stupid.

I'ma give you three notches on the scumeter for that one. If you want him to claim, you have to put up a better reason than that. Your only true threat is outbidding him, but you didn't use that as your leverage (and explicitly stated as such.) You used the Town as a strongarm that you had no real right to.

I'd vote you, but I also dislike TBF and, to a much lesser extent, TricMagic.

Next time, provide a real threat before you attempt extortion.

Geez, WTF did you submit, Wuba?

That's a rhetorical question.  But you're claiming a whole lot of powers, and I'm not sure I trust it.

I submitted your mom, so that's why my role is huge.

But seriously, stop fucking fishing.

Stop imputing fishing when you're the one giving up role detsils and I'm just noticing them after the fact.

Webadict, for good measure, 'cause my vote is still on you.

Tricmagic, what even is "this" and you can't split a vote like that.

Splitting it, that's what.

People always seem to jump when votes keep switching, and I do need to apply pressure. That and Caz hasn't responded to my vote either.

An interesting claim.

I think you've misunderstood my intentions. I'm not trying to stop Caz from winning the auction. I'm trying to lynch them as scum.

Quote

All scum needs to know is that Caz has a powerful ability at all to act accordingly. I believe knowing the details is ultimately more helpful to us than the scum when the mafiakill is not a threat.

Quote

A single extra action is not worth highballing unless you really need it. If we get that "recruit one of the replacements" auction, we want to win it.

Quote
Your only true threat is outbidding him, but you didn't use that as your leverage (and explicitly stated as such.) You used the Town as a strongarm that you had no real right to.
My true threat is my vote, which started as pressure but has now moved to a relatively solid one.

If you want him to claim, you have to put up a better reason than that.

I know I'm somewhat new to the local metagame, but is "pressure for a claim" not a valid D1 scumhunting strategy here on Bay12?
