Agh, you got me. I know town!Web would be killed on N1 so my investigate would become useless. This means checking you is pointless!
Actually, if you were going to check me, which you're not, you'd likely just lie and say I have a gun, and then I'd call your obvious bluff, and then you'd admit who you actually inspected.

Maximum Spin

My theory on this game is that Mafia has an active captain who orders the town roles around. A Jailkeeper prevents kills, but also stops cops from doing anything. Web is just outright lying about their role, and I'll check them tonight. Which will likely get me roleblocked, but eh. If I'm alive day 2 I can at least confirm their allegiances.

Waste of an inspect. Wouldn't recommend it, but you're going to anyway, which is incredibly silly.

Yeah no. I'm Parity. 8) I don't know why you are saying not to, do you have something to hide? Am I going to die N1?

On the contrary, I'm trying to bait the kill, and if I succeed, I will be dead.

And I'll still have the info. Which clears Roden. Or condemns them.

I've never heard of a Parity role before. What does that do?

He's a Parity Cop. He inspects alignment.

Oh ok, so just a normal cop. I think Tric should just target someone else then.

I agree completely with webadict which means he's probably mafia, so vote stands.
Laaaazy voooote. Got a better reason?

Should our Captains claim then? Because they could very well be the same person.
If they're Town, I'd rather they didn't.
I think Web is correct about this.

No. Web is dumb. Parity cops get some arbitrary result when they inspect someone which they can piece together to determine alignments. For example town might be a "1" and mafia might be a "2". Or it could be the other way around, we have no way to know until it's confirmed.

For example, let's say Tric inspects Web and gets a "1" and then Web is killed tonight and flips town. That means Tric knows "1" is a town result and has now basically become a full alignment cop.

Oh, whoops. I misread the wiki. Toony is right.

I understand why it now makes sense for Tric to inspect me.

Based on my role and what people have been claiming I believe there is a town false-positive and a mafia false-negative for my inspect. I think Tric is my town false-positive since he claimed so readily and willingly.

There are downsides with both of our inspections, however we should be able to narrow down suspects with our results combined.

Maybe, assuming you're not lying. Which I'm not willing to believe yet.

Anyway, should we be focusing Maximum Spin or Vector?

Ok, with that info then Tric should check Web tonight after all.

I'm fine with focusing on Vector first, I have a bit more experience with them. But we could always just do both.

I hope Jack posts soon, I want to hear his thoughts.
