TonyStarkPrime wrote: ↑Thu Mar 12, 2020 12:41 am So I have reached the conclusion that someone must be scum. I am going to proceed by thinking of this game as one with one scum team and an SK. There’s no reason to continue to think about this as multiball unless someone seriously wants to track down the anti monitor. Which is unnecessary because it looks like we missed our revive.

I’m confused by the second half of this post. Why does the lack of revival have anything to do with the anti-monitor?

1) noting we missed the revive
2) it means likely that either the revivey person died and that was not revealed or, I think, that Dizzy was chosen. In either case, the anti-monitor poses no unique threat to the town by that means.

I don't like the first half. It is an attempt to prevent another player from putting your name on a list. That's inherently scummy.
The second half seems fair, Turnip should stop throwing out names to see what sticks. I don't know if the question is entirely reasonable, but I think Sloonei is just looking for any kind of thought process.

This is the second time. On the list -- notably with Michelle, something that seems unlikely in his weird interpretation of another day 4. The only previous interaction was a quote about a mechanics thing and a voting log.
Unless I missed something I was searching on my phone.
Conveniently, me and Epi had just been talking about a suspicion of Speed a few posts ago. Nice name to add to a fake list?
Now, full note: me and Speed also I don't think have interacted this game and I've only expressed vague suspicion a few times. This could apply to me as well. So maybe it's not a great case -- the game is big, you don't interact with everyone and you don't post about everything you find off.

But I'd like some reasoning from our vegetable.

I need his take for everyone before anything

[mention]Turnip Head[/mention] ping me with your answer, how is everyone in your list scum and with whom?

Don't know if this was addressed, but I was thinking...If sig potentially designed the levels, would he have risked sending the anti-monitor in the main thread , the only place where lynched people die?

I don't think AM was in the same thread as him, because I think he'd grow weary of this theory being paid attention to. So right now I kind of want to sort in the other level. Anyone got a list with who was there? i want to iso sumthin'

Good idea, you may be right.

Which level were you in?
My dream level included Speed, Gman, Sloonei, Juliets, JJJ and me. I won the popularity contest with 3 votes fron Speed, Sloo and JJJ, second was Speed with 2 votes from Gman and Juliets, and i voted Juliets because her mild tone rised ny paranoia level.

@ me with what you need, i go to work but later I will post

ok i assume that's the list i wanted to look in cuz i remember that account telling us tsp and someone else was with sig

i think, ultimately, sig would've used the 3 man level for shading and bet on this very wifom. if we bit it, it takes a 50/50 to lynch his anti-monitor which would seem dumb from him.

I don't know if he'd risk it by putting him in main thread, so I think that he'd just place him in Michelle's hood thing.

I'll take a look at those peeps. But names that stick out upon PoE and shit are probably JJJ / Gman / Speed

I say we have two public votes and all privately vote for the most consensus target to override mafia secret vote.

huh?

Antimonitor has -2 votes against him by default. Antimonitor killed last night, giving him +3 votes due to Nanook2's death. This is a net +1 vote.

Award presenter can give +1 or -1 votes against a player.

Agatha gains votes for using actions and can remove them by taking no action.

So the Antimonitor has 1 vote to start, Agatha probably has at least 1 vote to start and another player may have 1 vote to start as well.

So basically, the bodyguard could have given us a free lynch but it didn't. Might help the case of a tie though.

What are you proposing Jack?

A normal day with two lynches and the most consensus suspect being voted for by all townies. Possibly that suspect is TH.

I agree.

Something like that. It's difficult, since there are two teams, and there are multiple players in there I don't recall reading any posts from. Lots of players in this game. Proposed players for each team would be harder still.
I think my individual takes are probably more useful.

Nanook being out of the picture really doesn't change things much.

Dom wrote: ↑Thu Mar 12, 2020 8:39 am wait... the killer is the one who starts with the extra votes?

If I’m understanding it correctly, the person who killed Harriet begins today with +3 votes cast against them in the poll. As it was probably the anti-monitor who killed nanook, their automatic -2 votes dampens that to a +1 for today.

[mention]tedxtr[/mention] I just scanned through your posts again. Since Mac was lynched, your hunting work has been quite limited — not in terms of post count, but in terms of post content. I see the following:

- The push against juliets that I didn’t like
- Push against sprityo D4
- A single vague dig at Jack
- A single vague dig at Michelle
- Today’s brief dig at TSP
- A theory predicated on inferring game/role mechanics and sig’s strategic intentions

There may have been another one-line/one-post shade in there. I think I remember one but not who. Phone.

This seems to contrast your play earlier in the game. I don’t know what you’re doing. What are you doing?

Your case on TH makes them look worse. Their case on you makes you look worse.

The distance doesn't matter because of multiball. End result: Net not-as-good.

Granted TH's case on you wasn't as strong as the reverse, IMO, having just looked back at it.
