In post 5973, Fishythefish wrote:IDK. What would clubs have told us? I'm guessing, that the suits have been truthfully claimed.

Thinking back now, I kinda wish we'd inventoried whichever club Uzi claims to have. Bet there are lots of them in the deck.

You can quote the PT a bit (checked with the mod to post Dunn's "let's kill Titus"). How much is not clearly defined AFAIK.
clubs tells us if the ace is hiding in a claimed club. which if it is, confirms uzi as scum.

Town thinks: TWIE is confirmed scum. I must prove it.
Scum thinks: TWIE is town. I must prove he's scum.

They come at it from a different angle, but both must find anything they can that proves TWIE is scum. Maybe there's a difference, but I think it's going to lead to a pretty similar outcome. If anything, the town version's arguments might be
worse
; when they find something that looks kinda scummy, they know the opponent is scum, so have no real reason to examine it critically.

Yeah, I should think more about non-club hidey holes, actually. On that now.

gerryoat
Fishythefish
- all confirmed
Kison
Maxous
- early hood claim
drealmerz7
- early hood claim
Vecna
- early hood claim
Dunnstral

gerry claims KH and KC. Two kings with active night powers? Would be a pretty weird draw.

The KC is vengeful, not a fakeclaim. I guess the KH could be fake.

Some combination of TWIE and myself basically has me talked round to a Kison lynch. I'm struggling to see a 6-of-clubs-fake while there's the ace loose in the world. But I'm going to sleep on it.

to follow up on this, i dont have to prove that kison is scum, my result does that for me.

i just have to show that im town. kison scum becomes apparent on its own.

scum kison has to prove that im scum.

thats why its different.

direct quotes from other places are usually just dont ever dos.

should always paraphrase them or talk to the mods first.

On play in a 1v1: this sounds like a playstyle thing. If you produced a guilty on me, I would sure as hell try to show you were likely scum, as any alignment.

I'm struggling past LUV and Kison/TWIE for the scumteam. I'm planning to die before we get to that point, so that's OK.

hmm, well if it shouldnt' be done, it should be in the rules is what I think, and have seen it explicitly so in many games

and this game is detailed as fuck

I'm sure quipla was conscious in this, if not, then I can't be held accountable for it not being in the rules I think

Hopefully also the mods will be inclined to mercy given the fairly small difference those quotes make to the game.

like you do understand how an informed minority works right?

whereas the counterpoints are, hey look. TWIE didnt know the alignment of everyone in the game like i did. he must be scum.
because that makes sense.
no note that i also didnt want menno.
puts "didnt vote day 5" as a negative. i didnt contribute to either day 5 mislynches and the note here is, yeah but its bad that he didnt vote
I actually missed that you were against McMenno, but let's take a trip down memory lane and have a look at it:

That's it. Further, you said you wanted a Gerry or Kison lynch, yet voted neither of them. In fact you abstained from voting entirely. Your opposition was about as weak as they come.

I've been wrong on quite a lot this game, and I pointed that out a few pages ago . The difference between you and me is I've been trying this entire game to find scum: something town must do to win. You on the other hand have done jack shit and either wagoned your way through the game or sat by and let them happen.
TheWayItEnds wrote:its like the most biased way you can attampt to frame these situations and i really didnt think it warranted a response other than a yawning smiley (which i still desperately need kison)
I dunno kid I think what you desperately need is a new schtick & an upgrade of your witty banter arsenal. :good:

Probably because he knows it's in the game & to get this exact reaction out of people. Please don't make the wrong choice over such a silly reason.
In post 5951, Fishythefish wrote:Incidentally, I said I had A Plan.

Well, I'm not sure I do, but no harm sharing in case someone can make something of it.

Kison claims to be a watcher tonight. Maxous is a neighbouriser tonight. We could:
- Pick a very likely townie, X.
- Have Kison watch them.
- Have Max flip a coin, and decide whether to neighbourise them.
- Make Kison declare whether Max did in fact visit them.
If
X and Max are both town, Kison only has a coinflip to guess whether the visit happened. So we get loads of information if Kison guesses wrong; and very little if he guesses right.
I'm happy to be tested, but note that (1) this relies on Max being town and (2) it doesn't tell you all what to do
today
