Claim TimeI'm pretty much just a tracker but even then my role has some additionally weirdness.
Max, this is exactly what I'm saying. This "the other cop would counter claim" business is nonsense. Anyway what with Roden, Euchre and Tric's shenanigans, I've moved back into thinking you're more likely town.
It's not nonsense, literally no other person has claimed to be any kind of cop, which should suggest to you that nobody else is any kind of cop.
Max,
cast your mind back to earlier in the game when you said you like to let people make inferences rather than outright stating. And now consider my stubbornness about this one particular point.
I'm mostly a tracker but I'm also a pseudo-cop. When I track someone, I learn their target(s), but I can also learn if they or any of their targets or anyone that targeted them is scum but not which one or how many or who might have targeted them. It's flavoured like there are good or bad "psychic vibes" about the target.
Given the hidden element and the profusion of millers and untrackable players, it's likely the role was designed to trick knightwing into making over-confident pronouncements. This more complex power was why I was sceptical about Euchre's tracking claim.
N1 I tracked Roden but it failed because he's untrackable.
N2 I tracked 4mask. 4mask targeted Jim. There was scum between them and any targetter of 4mask.
I knew there was no point tracking Roden again (untrackable), Jim (he'd apparently redirect me to 4mask), Toony (more or less clear), Max was most likely town at this stage, so that left Tric (suspicious, but everyone else seems to think obvtown) and 4mask, who was #2 lynch pick. So the obvious choice was to go with 4mask.
Anyway the cop part didn't do anything useful, as we already know Jim was a miller. But it does confirm that 4mask targeted Jim.
Roden, what happened with that vig power??? Very curious that you don't even mention it in your first posts.
4mask, happy birthday! What was your intended action if you were hypnotised into killing Jim?
Max, do you think scum!4mask would be stupid enough to kill Jim when everyone knows he's the only person who can target Jim, and also Jim was one of the few players actively calling 4mask town?
Also, I can't really have done the kill without some trick, as I protected 4mask last night.
It's obvious to me that the team must be
TricMagic/Roden:
Tric 'protects' 4mask, after Roden had claimed to want to vig 4mask. So they set up their alibis early. Tric hypnotises ("power of friendship") 4mask into performing the kill. Jim was picked as the target because everyone knows only 4mask can kill Jim. And also Jim had expressed doubt about Tric's clam (the implausibility of "sacrifice").
Either that, or a scum!4mask just straight up shot Jim (why??) while his scum partner Tric doctored him, anticipating a shot from the vig. In either of these scenarios, Tric is scum. POE: Tric, Roden, 4mask.
