Flay, if there is anything you've been holding back about your role, consider this your last chance to reveal it. I don't believe your claim, and if your next post doesn't convince me you are telling the truth, I'm going to lynch you. After that, no amount of backpedaling or changing your story is going to make me change my vote.

As for why I don't believe Flay's claim, it seems sketchy to me that he gets results on an entire post, especially since there could be subjective statements in it. I don't think Kinetic would have designed a role to work like that. It seems more likely that he would have you check one statement rather than an entire post.

Flay, claim your Day 1 target and results before it is too late.

Yes, this is totally plausible. Not only that, if MBL is scum and Flay isn't, MBL might not confirm. I don't think that the location-confirming test tells us anything.
Meh, I'm not to worried about that.

If they're both scum together, then it would be risky for MBL to try to protect Flay like this. In any case, if we really think that, we can use someone else to test Flay (or test Flay again tommorow with someone else, or whatever).

If MBL is scum and Flay isn't, I doubt he'll say "Flay is lying scum, lynch him", and then we lynch Flay and find out Flay was town; if he does, then that gives us a one-for-one trade, which is fine by me.
I want us to win just for Yos' inevitable rant alone. -CrashTextDummie

Sounds to me like you just volunteered to have me lie-detect you today. :roll: Or are you panicked scum trying to kill off a role that looks overpowered to your side?
UnFoS: Slicey, FoS: MoS
- you've been accusing me of incompetence ever since you entered the game. I didn't think the role sounds reasonable either when I got it, but why would I claim something so complex and easily falsifiable if I could make the simpler claim you're theorizing? Think, man!

And I'm not going to claim the rest of the role's details just on your say-so; doing so might nerf the ability irretrievably.
Flay, claim your Day 1 target and results before it is too late.
I will before it's too late, but now is not that time, just on your threat. And I've already told you the result; I know someone isn't lying about their win condition being pro-town.

I had a good feeling you lie detected that Flay. Which is why I was slightly inclined to believe your claim. Can someone answer my question though if the flavor makes sense?

It's plausible. Horse traders in the books are the WoT's car salesmen and are used to negotiating and haggling (see their dealings with Mat). So, I could see this extending to lie detection.

I confess that I don't understand why Flay is holding back his information, though.

From my experience as an Aes Sedai in the last game, I would've thought that it would be a bad comment to make.

Sure, he may have believed it, but without explaining why he believes it, it's a reckless comment if not a flat-out lie.

To my reading, his wording only leaves one possible explanation if he is town: that he detected out-of-thread communication between Isacc & KoC. However, this seems unlikely to me as Isacc was an SK.

I think it would be good to have at least one other person post something similar to what MBL did above, just to guard us against the case that Flay and MBL are working together, or that MBL is on his own trying to pull something. As a group, we could then choose who Flay should target, etc. I think a good candidates for this would be Kairyuu and SpyreX, as they have already outed themselves as non-AS.

Brilliant. I see no reason not to test Flay's ability. He willingly made his own role complex in such a way that lying about it will be even
more
difficult for himself, and we have the capacity to prove/disprove it.

I'll use MBL's list plus some more in case Mr. Flay wants to use me as his test as well. I'm somewhat iffy about the claim, but I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt for a while if he's right.

Honestly, guys, we should get some useful info out of this lie detect, not just see if Flay is lying. (Not bloody likely.) Kairyuu's already semi-confirmed. If anyone unconfirmed would like to volunteer, that's fine, but I think you'll all be quite pleased to have me confirmed. Assuming Flay's not scum.

I'm not giving details on exactly how it works unless there's strong consensus for that, as it will nerf my ability.
This is SO scummy. That said, Flay using his ability on MBL here should work out. No more people should post those lists though as it auto confirms them not AS.

I like how every time someone posts statements for Flay, it's twice as long as the predecessor... :)

That said, MBL, you should probably revise your list and make it more definite like the other two, so that there isn't a "4% chance" or wherever you got that number.

Lie detect this, then.
I know information about Flay's role and/or actions that directly implicates him as possible scum, information he did NOT reveal to the town.
If he was protown, he would have revealed this information. He lied to us when he claimed, and we should lynch him now. I gave him a chance to come clean, and he did not. As such, I no longer have any reason to believe that the information I have *could* come from a protown person.

No, I do not intend to reveal the nature of this information, because not only will it help Flay-scum try to weasel out of being lynched, but it will help other scum gauge how much of a threat I am to them. Lynch Flay, and you will see I am correct.

Flay, I will only ask this one more time:
Who did you target Day 1?
