Mini Normal 2139: No Flavor Allowed - Game Over

Why Cakez?

obvscum

Why Cakez?

obvscum

Why is Cakez obvscum? Because it's not obv to me.

[Zulfy]

Cakez is obvscum for calling Quick obvscum, which makes Ame obvscum.

[Quick]

I have BIG news. I hope you're listening closely, because I'm about to crack this game WIDE open. They're gonna be talking about this post for mafia generations to come. This will probably get me that mOmEnT oF bRiLlIaNcE award for 2020. I'm not kidding btw. Read and take this post seriously.

So, it all started when I was making my scumcase for Klick/Quick (sometimes referred to as Kluick).

I came across his first post:

VOTE: Umlaut

I dunno about the Persivul wagon, but this is scum regardless.

A "strong" entrance, but an unnatural level of overconfidence. Remember how he has no scumreads later in the day, and claims his bottom two reads are "neutral"? Exhibiting a strong scumread such as this one does NOT fit the playstyle of a player who apparently townhunts and doesn't have many scumreads. As explained by him in 421 for example.

Let's move on to the his second post:

Zulfy is making sense.
VOTE: LuckyLuciano

Clidd's content is good so far, leaning town there.

He has already moved on from his Umlaut scumread, and is now sheeping a player without explanation. Now, on its own, this isn't too bad, but what you need to understand is that this is NOT a natural progression from his previous post and expressed level on confidence to this one. Spotting inconsistencies in thought processes is one of the BEST ways of finding scum, and is the number 1 scumtell I use.

Okay, let's take a break here.
So, I could go through all his posts and continue explaining why he's scum. Sure, I could do that. It'd be very easy.
OR, I could skip ahead to the post that absolutely 100% incriminates Qlick as scum. This is gonna be great. I hope you're ready.

THIS IS IT:

VOTE: valoneast
Atarashi/Hoctac: tell me why I shouldn't vote here.

This beauty right here. I'd like to thank farside for asking me to make the scumcase, as I likely otherwise would have missed this.

In this post, Klick is asking Atarashi and Hoctac (that's me!!!) about our opinions on valoneast, and why we shouldn't vote there. On it's own this post is strange, why ask us out of everyone? I don't see any reason prior in thread that he would be asking us two specifically.
Well, here's the thing: Atarashi, valoneast, and I are in a

neighbourhood

together. Klick is NOT in this neighbourhood. He is asking us because he knows we may have an opinion of valoneast formed from discussion in the hood, but has NO reason to be aware of this fact. Zulfy is also in this hood.
What this means is that Qlick is scum with one of Zulfy, Atarashi, or valoneast, and subconsioulsy let slip that he was aware of this info. The only other explanation is that he's an Informed Townie, that was for some reason aware of the hood, but is that even Normal? Probably not.

EVERYONE vote for Kluick today. This will clear me as town, and confirm one of Atarashi/valoneast/Zulfy as scum. This game is basically over already.

Thanks for taking my play into consideration. Really great of you to do that, I appreciate it.

[Ame]

Quick, is being informed of the neighborhood/ who is in it the only thing you're informed about?

[Zulfy]

That's of course, not serious.

Quick you suggested your Hoctac read had nothing to do with this game, also you didn't quote your LuckyLu suspicion there I guess it doesn't fit your last-ditch narrative.

[Zulfy]

Hoctac vote, not read.

[Hoctac]

This is a Ame power play where she unvotes so she can be the hammer. I've seen it done in the movies.

[Quick]

Quick, is being informed of the neighborhood/ who is in it the only thing you're informed about?

No, like I said a million times, I KNOW there is AT LEAST ONE Scum in the hood, like, because my ROLE PM says so.

[Hoctac]

Thanks for taking my play into consideration. Really great of you to do that, I appreciate it.

Sorry, not my fault you share the same slot <3

You should've taken Ame's slot. She's playing it optimally so far.

[Quick]

That's of course, not serious.

Quick you suggested your Hoctac read had nothing to do with this game, also you didn't quote your LuckyLu suspicion there I guess it doesn't fit your last-ditch narrative.

All I have said about Lucky is I thought they were Town?

[Umlaut]

Zulfy, how sure are you that Hoctac is town? Because I think probably Hoctac is town, but I still have the thought bouncing around that this could all be The Most Complicated Scum Gambit Of All Time.

[Hoctac]

TMCSGOAL? That's a classic. Done a few of those in my time actually.

[Zulfy]

Wagons are good. UNVOTE: Atari. VOTE: persivul.

This can die as well...

[Zulfy]

Hoctac is my #1 hoodie.

[Umlaut]

TMCSGOAL?

I forgot the L is silent in Ltime

[Zulfy]

Let me quote from my notepad with my notes on this game's players:

Hoctac: I rolled my eyes at his case-making but if I had to sheep someone it'd prolly be this guy.

[Quick]

Hoctac is my #1 hoodie.

That better be based on hood conversations. Oh, wait, you don't even post there nvm.

[Zulfy]

yea

[Hoctac]

TMCSGOAL?

I forgot the L is silent in Ltime

lol yeah lesser known fact actually

thanks, Zulfy, my cases are soul reads and are only wrong 5% of the time, half of the time.

[Quick]

Wagons are good. UNVOTE: Atari. VOTE: persivul.

This can die as well...

Thanks for reminding me.

Welp, that proves I am Scum I guess. GG nice playing with you all.

BTW, probably 60% of my posts can be ended with:

/s

Ah, the Trump defense.

Kind of regret not insta-hammering now.

How about you can be Town for putting me at L-1?

[Hoctac]

Ame, is your Cakez read a meta one or are you doing [REDACTED] for [REDACTED]?

[Ame]

Why would you lynch outside of the hood if there's scum there regardless of quick's alignment.

I scum read hoctac and Cakez.

VOTE: hoctac

Hoctac lied about not knowing I was the persi slot. He's also trying to butter me up to get me to hammer. It would be silly not to lynch here.
