notes/random thoughts as a I read
Something still seems strange about the end of Day 1, can't quite put my finger on it. archangel had a smattering of posts throughout the day about a town banisher and that lulz was town as a scum team would not have let him be so mouthy (I think atpg kinda disproves that point!)
Lulz has been the lynchee for many hours
239 Lulz at t-30 "I'm going to the bank, the grocery store, and then getting lunch. I may not be back in time....If I'm lynched I wouldn't even mind having my vote off of him for future VCA..."
242 Lulz at t-20 decides to claim - quick trip to the bank/store/lunch or a realisation that they are now only in the lead by one vote
243 scathach votes idrink - tie - lulz still the lynchess
246 and tounces for idrink, idrink now the lynchee by 1, lulz would still be lynched if it went back to a tie; tounces - why idrink and not swammi?
250 lightfoot unvotes lulz, making the lead 2, and a tie with 5 mins to go now unlikely.
N1 actions or lack of
someone kills archangel - not surprised at that
archangel claims she is a watcher, and saw 3 folk at lulz
mahaloth and jan admit being there
mahaloth thinks lulz is town
mahaloth's and jan's watery comments about why they were there makes essentially narrows town the 3rd person to being a protector....but...given that lulz was now the obvious target for night actions, and with the risk of watchers, the doc would be sticking their neck out by being there.
lulz claims to have tried to banish idrink
idrink is not banished
lulz - no power, or blocked?
idrink - protected?
and lightfoot thinking that lulz is her twin so there for town, tho tells us nothing about lightfoot'd alignment.
if lulz is the only method town has for getting confirmation of alignment then i'm going to be very disappointed in sisc's game setup - pretty poor of the whole thing hangs on a single players power - and if lulz is truthful, then the whole town is now hamstrung keeping him alive.
likewise with lightfoots twin/double - she could have stated up front that roger rabbit is town, the fact that she didn't suggests there is more to lightfoot's claim than meets the eye.
lulz'a role is pretty powerful - remove someone from the game - get their full alignment - potentially reveal 3 scum on their death....and 'confirmable' by lightfoot
part of me is thinking there is an elaborate scum ploy here - archangel is a vanilla scum and has been bussed by her team to get lulz town cred and expose other townies - there would need to be a real scum watcher for this.
if archangel is truthful she is a threat to the scum as she can put a town-lean on the 3rd person - but she is also useful to the scum as ultimately she may reveal that 3rd person. so scum may or may not silence her.
which then raises the question of the 'doc' power - protection from kills and/or protection from banishment? maybe multiple docs with different powers.
is (a mahaloth suggested) redirection in play - tho if it was "redirect all actions on lulz to xyz", then lulz's claimed banishment of idrink would have succeeded (unless idrink was protected from banishment - which would have been the logical choice for anyone with a banishment-block power).
mahaloth is not-claiming cop, and jan is not-claiming doc - but in reality would the cop or doc come out and claim on d2 if seen by a watcher - or would they try and be more mysterious and make life more difficult for scum. while it is plausible that the 3rd person is the doc, its equally plausible that that 3rd person was scum
#180 this is a seriously hypocritical post - fos's folk for not joining either than jan or mahaloth wagon, then votes charlie; seems like swammi is covering his ass if mahaloth and/or jan ultimately get revealed as town.
mahaloth's behaviour on d1 is iffy, likewise the umming and ahhing over whether or not to claim, whether to paraphrase (in a game that does allow you to quote), and to leave it to close to day end. if someone is going to claim, claim and give the town time to digest it rather than tossing something out there with 20 mins to go.
