Bold and outside-the-box thinking for sure but if Scotty was "programmed" to betray her as you suggest, wouldn't that violate the three non-vanilla guidelines? If Scotty could betray her, then he can "perform an action or trigger an event within the game," to quote our host.JaggedJimmyJay wrote:What do you think of my bonkers theory that Scotty is actually the baddie team mate of Elohcin who may have been "programmed" or otherwise incited to betray her? I think an independent check makes some sense in that scenario, as would his abject rejection of your peek.G-Man wrote:Scotty
I know what role information I was given for you. It was a little spooky. In light of Wilgy's claim, however, I don't see you as an active threat to the civvies. If you are a survivor role, then you already know that siding with the baddies is foolish at this point. You're in this category solely because I believe my peek that you are an indy.
My interpretation of Eloh's role description was that she was led to believe one of her teammates may be plotting against her. The existence of the term 'paranoid' in her role title suggests that she was duped into that line of thinking. I doubt she was told she was the Paranoid Mafia Leader. She was probably just told she was the Mafia Leader and that one of her teammates may betray her. The game is, after all, based on fear.
Scotty claims he is civ and not indy. I have to consider that I am what is called a Confused Cop, where my peek results are not completely trustworthy. My peek was correct Day 0 and Night 2. Night 1 is unconfirmed and Night 3 was blocked. If it's as simple as an every-other pattern, I would expect my Night 4 peek to be accurate.
