It is not Katenscum killed tn. It is scum killed tn.In post 495, Finglove wrote:So why did scum choose a worse outcome? If Katen were scum, I don't see what they gain from killing tn: I think we were more likely to lynch tn today anyway, so they'd have until D3 before worrying. The mostly likely set up to me is that
1) Neither Katen nor tn were (are) scum
2) Scum were carefully split between the two wagons and couldn't jump at a late stage for fear of looking scummy
3) They want us to lynch Katen and will then kill the IC overnight.
...and therefore I'm not up for a Katen lynch today, unless someone can find some flaws in my logic. In the next 24 hours or so I'll do a full read of pa and burning, as they seem a bit keen for a Katen lynch.
Scum gained by removing the small possibility of being tracked.
I really don't see how scum can be better off by leaving an informative role alive. Leaving tn alive gives tn a chance to get a track result. The chance of him tracking a scum is low translate to high chance of tracking town. When he flipped Tracker, his result is going to be somewhat helpful by semi clearing the person he tracked if he indeed tracked someone without a night action.
The more probable deduction I get from the NK is that the scum really didn't choose any ability, so they know any result from the tracker is going to be very helpful to town. But still, there is really no reason not to kill the tracker.
The IC, on the other hand, is nothing but a confirmed town. The player pool is still large enough so the possibility of mislynch is still high (7/10). There is no rush to kill him when there's a better target.
