Ah, good. Now to see two scum defend themselves for all they're worth.
Apparently the mafia became a little anxious when I called out a scum player, but were afraid to nightkill Super's main critic. In Superdorf, this manifested as a sudden "hunch" I was scum. Pooka meanwhile decided to visit his scumbuddy - and claim roleblocker into the bargain. Not a bad tactic to restore his reputation, really.
The hunch you mention? I had that hunch because you were buddying up to me. It had nothing to do with Superdorf. It also just so happened that this hunch was part of my very first and only read list I had so far, when I felt I had enough info to decide who scaled who. Also, I read the last 150 posts or so. If we go with what you're saying that Superdorf and I are scumbuddies, then what you said before my reads list was not enough to have me panic about you going after him. There's literally nothing worrying my scum self in the game to warrant this maneuver of yours.
That hunch I mention? That's superdorf's hunch. Do try not to panic, it makes this bit
so much less fun for me.
I could try and make the best of the garbled mess below that sentence, but it seems to have been written on the assumption that I was talking about your claims I was "pocketing" you. Reread the bit you quoted, it's clear that I was talking about Superdorf's response at the start of D2 after I presented the case on him at the end of D1.
Also very worth noting in the above post that Pooka says "if a kill was blocked, I have reason to suspect you, and if a kill wasn't blocked, I also have reason to believe you didn't do any killing that night", as if talking to Superdorf, the guy he supposedly roleblocked, while replying to me. In such a rush you copy-pasted your excuse from a scumchat, eh? I mean, it's more than I need, but still, thanks for the scumslip.
You're really trying to find ANYTHING to make me look like the scum. I replied to you because you made the allegation that I was not the roleblocker, so I said yes, I am the roleblocker. Then I proceeded to answer Superdorf's question when he gave me the Finger of Suspicion:
...Pooka's the roleblocker?
Pooka? What gives?
I didn't quote it because 1) I'm lazy and I was distracted by talking to someone at the time, and 2) I figured it would be obvious who I was answering. The "you"s is Superdorf, the guy who asked me what gives.
I mean... I can see that you might not have expressed yourself clearly by accident, but I didn't automatically search for the "what gives?" question a page back when I saw the response starting "the reason". I thought you were providing a reason for the block you just claimed to have made. In the same paragraph. In the previous sentence. And to be fair, that is exactly what you were doing. Just in reply to something you didn't quote, a page back.
So you were replying to Superdorf, but in a completely normal way. I see.
In your favor, that is, scum.
Very helpful.
Here are the night's actions:
- Pooka (Watcher) watched Superdorf (
?)
- Naturegirl (Bodyguard) protected Superdorf (?)
- Persus (Universal Backup - Tracker) tracked Pooka (Watcher)
- NJW (Follower) followed Pooka (Watcher)
- Someone (almost definitely Superdorf) killed 4maskwolf.
Actually come to think of it, I like how you claim I watched Superdorf, but only after Persus came out saying that I did visit Superdorf. This way, you would have a leg for your theory to stand on, since someone else can confirm I visited the dude, and then you managed to spin it up into a mutual lying story as some form of desperation attack or something.
...nevermind the fact that if it's indeed a scummy tactic and we were both scum, then Superdorf and I are exposed.
I like how you're misconstruing me.
I said I
believe you targeted Superdorf. There's no way for me to have found that out myself, Follower only gets to know the action, not who it was performed on. The basis for my belief was Persus claiming it and you agreeing with Persus. Persus doesn't confirm me much, or at all, afaik.
And yep, if the tactic backfires, the two of you might be exposed together. But if it suceeds, the two of you get a mislynch today and win. And the weakness of the tactic is also its strength, in that the two of you can back each other up. I only managed to catch the two of you by a lucky, almost random night-choice, then putting myself on the line, and waiting for other people to claim.
It's a smart gambit. I can respect that. I almost feel bad about wandering into the middle of it like this. Almost.
If I were a mafioso, I'd have done what you said, disown the roleblocking and pretend to be something else. But why would I just claim that I'm a roleblocker of all things publicly? I must be either a mad man of a mafioso walking into literal suicide, or...I'm actually a town roleblocker, as luck would have it.
Not sure why I'm replying to this, as you clearly know the answer, but:
In order to have your story be coherent with Superdorf's claim that he was roleblocked. And two out of five people with a consistent story are very likely to be believed by at least one other person, I'd say. In fact, as you were honest about who you targeted, your story worked with Persus' results, while Naturegirl's actions didn't directly involve you. You were just unlucky that I followed you. And even now, it's your word against mine for Persus and Naturegirl. Not a bad tactic at all.
I was the one to say that today is very possibly LyLo, and I could have just sit back and let town argue and lynched another townie without exposing myself or my scumbuddy. AT THE VERY LEAST, I could have roped someone other than scummy Superdorf with me.
Gosh. How very towny of you, pointing out a LyLo situation. Scum couldn't concieveably do such a thing. Instantly quoting this as part of your defence... I mean, come off it.
And would lynching another townie be so easy? Superdorf gave a sort of gut-read based OMGUS almost instantly, he was clearly cracking. But thanks to you "roleblocking" him, I looked like the one who nightkilled instead.
