Hands in cookie jar. BUSTED.

To be clear, we are claiming a MECH GUILTY on the skitter-ydra hydra.


p-edit: Go ahead, we're all cat-ears.
Just to be very, very clear, you're claiming a hard, unambiguous mech guilty?

(I.e. and this isn't a 'well we have such a strong read on them it's *like* a mechanical guilty so we just claimed one' because i would not put that past town-you)

B/c if you're claiming this I want this to be a firm claim that you can't easily walk back after our flip - I am going to be doing my very best to make sure you get limmed right after us in the event we lose the 1v1

We're shot-limited oddsmaker
And unlimited vig who is currently disabled

- oddsmaker: if we target the same person the bookie did we cancel the bookie action
- we were explicitly told that the vig was disabled and that we would be informed when/if we became enabled / it would be obvious when that happened

We did not act last night, kinda figured oddsmaker would be better to be used late game

I am very surprised nobody else died, we kinda assumed there'd be a lot more killing power based on our role

And yeah even before the brian flip we were assuming the bookie was scum

I very, very strongly also think firebringer is scum here

Also i'm more than a little bit upset that you decided to do this after touhou

like bluntly ik that we look bad after the flip + "mech guilty" which is why the claim bludgeon as i call it is coming out early rather than being coy but that's all the info we have

neither of us really wanted to go in depth overnight. pooky kill doesn't surprise me and i think the game's al ot of mushy nothingness to me. the theory i had though is probably that wolves can't maintain a lot of thread control if they let a bus driver die tho. lot of correct people being townread etc

Yeah we think scum is largely in the ~utr players, fire is like the only person who tried to divert the brian wagon, we think they didn't have enuf influence to push it somewhere else

I repeat what i said like 10 pages agon brian skies, I get the feeling and reason he is wagoned. ITs just the fact he is always wagoned day 1 in games i play with him and he is always town when it happens that makes me go that this is bad.

I just really want to elim bingle and im too lazy to case him or lead the charge there. Nor do i think anyone will listen to me (but honestly just using that as an excuse not to put in the effort to try)

No, it doesn't seem obvious to me either that they'd be limmed or that the bookie would target them

Your secret admirer claimed he was sending it to you already so really it’s only a hand slap for morph
I mean it’s kinda a hand slap for you as well, crab. I wanted to wait and see if our targets claimed the part of the fruit I DIDNT claim in the thread as a test, but you making that known to our hood mates killed that plan.

You’re saying scum is in the universal town reads but didn’t have the ability to derail the wagon? How does that make sense
