You have heard from me as of now. I am inclined to say that, given no better options, the poorer puzzle solver be lynched, if any person ought to be lynched. The reasoning is that the chance that either of the two selected is mafia is the same. The downside to lynching the good puzzle solver if he is town is higher than the downside of lynching the poor puzzle solver if he is town.
One might consider that the mafia get higher rewards from solving puzzles than townies do. If so, this completely destroys what I said, since good mafiates will be that much better than good townies, and the risk-benefit is once again the same for both good and poor puzzle solvers. What do you all think?
Honestly I don't know why someone would even bother making this post. It not only negates itself in the second paragraph, but it also uses garbage logic in the first. He says "the chance that either of the two selected is mafia is the same." This is totally faulty - yes, the chance is equal that either one of them might be scum, as the roles are randomized, but that says nothing about the odds of the scum actually being chosen for elimination.
Mod: How often do challenges come about?
Anyway, until we know more, I'll Vote: No Lynch
No reason for this post either - it's an easy way to slip under the radar, though. Sliding in to vote NL and then disappearing for awhile - I'll the you that until his doc claim I wasn't thinking too much about Khel, he did a good job falling through the cracks.
FoS: Skitzer
The wierd "distancing" ploy with Farside comes out to a massive load of WIFOM. I really can't say I trust it when someone says

My strategy for this game on day 1 is to go against whatever farside22 is doing, because I am fairly confident this is NOT farside22 town play. Therefore, by going against her, I am more likely to get her scum buddies unless she is using a complex and strategic form of WIFOM.
Of course, if Skitzer were to be scum, Farside would be a logical next lynch. This is just wierd.
This is interesting. Skitzer was town, we now know. Khel would know that skitzer was town if Khel were scum. Ironically Khel is distancing himself from farside here by saying "If skitzer is scum then farside could be too".
There's part one. Gotta catch a bus.
