No, just a joke.

So, all mason's can do in this game is know the other mason's alignment?

EBWOP to post 467 above: I also know blotunga's character name and some fluff text about how we know each other/etc, as well. It is likely useless, though.

Sorry, I'm at a conference at the moment and I don't have much time. So I won't be able to contribute much today or tomorrow.

GameRager and blotunga, are you sure both of you fully read your PMs? Every single letter in it?

stfu with that already :P

No, it's a silly written in a voting way.

Errr... you shouldn't be PMing other players about the game, even if it's a technical question. Always PM the mod.


I share your uncertainty. Given that we probably have time (i.e. we got two scum in two Days), I'd actually be up for lynching one to confirm the other.

It just occurred to me that there is a way that Joe might have included 4 scum. What if they were mafia lovers? That might weaken them enough to keep it balanced and I wouldn't put it past Joe to do something like that.

If them being masons is in fact a falseclaim it would explain Blotunga's reluctance to give details as well as GR's "misclaim" that he had no PR and why he was taking Blotunga's lead.

I'm still sore about the time I was right on the money about the untreatable duo of gogtrial and Joe, failed to act on it and got horribly murdered by them.

Nope, we are not lovers. My reluctance was due to the fact that I could've convinced scum I have a better PR than I have right now. Scum most likely would've killed me, even though GR was confirmed. Now he can pick any of us.

Wow, totally not the response I was expecting from you! I think maybe I'll wait for some opinions from the people whose alignment I'm not currently questioning.

You know what, I'm starting to get pissed off by all this questioning. Maybe you're the scum trying to eliminate some town, to have less headaches.

Are you suggesting that blotunga may not be admitting the truth when confronted? Now, why on Earth would he do that?

Being a Joe game, there's likely to be some sort of twist hidden somewhere, so perhaps you're right. My preferred lynch would be LOLchan though, purely for lurking. Pooka would have been another candidate, were it not for his one liner a short while ago.

That is a possibility and it would explain some things. There were some more things that felt off. GR's speculation that blotunga might be scum. blotunga pre-emptively answering for GR. Masons without a Night-Chat are already non-standard, so I wouldn't put it past Joe to make them either neutral or scummy.

So it might be necessary to lynch one of the two as a sort of policy-lynch. If one flips as exactly what he claimed, the other is hard-confirmed. If one flips as neutral or anti-town, the other is automatically the next target. If one flips and the other dies as well and both flip scum, we're happy because we will have won.

But I'm not sure whether a policy lynch is the best strategy for today. If the claim is true, we end up wasting a Day. We might also work on the assumption that the claims are true for today. Then we would have (in my view) four relatively sure Townies. The two 'Masons' plus you SPF plus me, of course. That would mean the remaining scum would have to be one of {nmillar, Pooka, RedFire, LOLchan}

LOLchan gave off some scummy vibes and would have been my top pick if trent had flipped Town for the way (s)he merrily hopped on the trent train without much own input. A typical follow-up move. However, trent flipped scum and LOLchan was the second person on that train, following you, SPF. I don't think scum would have merrily bussed so early. So by timing LOLchan gets some soft Town-points.

nmillar also pinged my scumdar several times. But also was, as pointed out by themselves, the first one to notice that GR was cleared by blotungas soft-claim, no matter what alignment blotunga has. Of course that fact can also be noticed by scum and could be shared to appear towny.

I'll have to go over RedFire and Pooka when I have a bit more time. More on that later.

Btw. Going back ot the votes and behavior I think Redfire stuck out the most.

If i don't get NKed I'm more than happy to be lynched tomorrow.

LOL

The lady doth protest too much, methinks.

Funnily enough I am actually with you there. Post 451 was definitely eyebrow-worthy, if only for the sheer speed at which RFG slammed a vote on nmillar after I posted my thoughts. It did come across very much as "any lynch will do".
