[Halp]

I think we need beast to full claim. I find it unlikely that we have an even night RB, bodyguard, and whatever beast is/isn’t claiming.

vote beast

Interesting take, Halp. I just triple posted and part of it was a direct statement to you and you didn't acknowledge a word of what I said in the slightest.

Your activity might be hurting you here. Don't come off TOO scummy.

the_paul Just for the record, I don't think it's at all likely but if you flipped scum and sac bunted your own role blocker, I would be shocked but impressed. There are people that I will never trust in this game.

I feel the exact same way about you. And thats why having to admit that you are the person in this game I'm closest to trusting tells me that this game is fucked and that I have nothing of substance on anybody.

[Voth]

This is a different game for sure. I know I've played with Edify long ago but that was literally over a decade ago probably, and now we have Kassius and Hookecho who are wildcards. I do feel that Kassius is a little too good for a newbie so far, but I highly doubt that's from coaching from the scum team unless people are literally pre-writing his posts for him - I bet he has experience in similar games on other platforms and has not yet been forthcoming about it. Either way, they are people I can't really use prior knowledge on and it makes me nervous. Kind of cool, though - this is more what mafia is supposed to be.

What I do want to restate is that somehow the scum
team let one of their most powerful roles get lynched on Day 1. I know it all happened in a short time frame but I can't help but turn to Kthx as a sub and figure if PF wasn't scum (who knew?), that he is.

[Voth]

As much as Halp comes off like an inactive tardmuffin too, he is a skilled mafia player and crushed it a few games back as a third party if I remember correctly. I do tend to remember how people play, and I remember Halp being a super AFK townie because he is just bored. Why are you posting more than normal? Quarantine or...?

[Vehicle]

Paul, I'm sorry I pointed the finger your way, you're %100 right. Day 1 last minute voting on backwards went Exalt, then Voth, then Paul, with Paul being the deciding vote. As we've discussed at length, it seems absurd that the mafia would lynch their own RB on Day 1 simply for cover. I had forgotten about that series of events when I was mulling my vote this morning.

The last-minute switch to backwards kept Beast from being lynched and it happened in the 11th hour in quick succession. Backwards died with 3 votes while others (including Beast I believe) had 2 on them. Exalt was town and started the votes, followed by Voth and Paul.

Both Voth and Paul switched from Beast to backwards when there were other people with one vote who they could of nailed and just left Exalt's vote hanging on backwards. But paul was the deciding vote.

Therefore, I have come to the conclusion that Paul is town. (As previously stated, I also believe Voth to be town but not with the same conviction as I now believe paul.)

Also I should have listed Ixt and Beast in my suspicious of list, since both have claimed to be protective roles, but our claimed town cop didn't survive the night. Ironic since I stuck my neck out for Beast day 1, but here we are.

I think you're right about this as well. We have a dead cop and a dead weaponsmith. For the sake of argument, let's take PF at his word that his role was sort of like a metal detector and he wasn't handing out guns, which basically makes him a second cop.

With that being said, it seems unlikely both Beast and ixt have protective roles. So someone is lying.

I had given ixt the benefit of the doubt because he roleclaimed out of the blue when there wasn't really any pressure on him. Counter to my earlier post, I now believe ixt was doing that to try to keep pressure off him and get the Townie stamp of approval early in the game. Not only is he scum, he's also a liar.

Vote ixt

Or hey, maybe we're all wrong and the mafia deliberately killed one of their own for street cred.

[Voth]

Beast Can you explain why you were ravenously triple posting with what you call English for a while and now you've completely faded into the background?

[Vehicle]

The same might be true of you Voth. And if that is the case, whichever one of you is a scum is also a diabolical genius with no soul.

[Voth]

Huh. I didn't expect it that quickly. I appreciate the back pats you gave me in earlier posts but they made
me feel a tad like Trump giving Stormy Daniels money to shut up. Found scum? ixt is a moron and playing like his normal moron town self. And I'm assuming Beast is your scum buddy, along with either Halp or Kthx and a newbie. Interesting.

[Vehicle]

Expect what?

(Any delay in post response is because I have stepped away from my computer to go take pictures of a property, do not assume anything otherwise)

I didn't expect someone to show such obvious
scum signs as a result of my tirade so quickly. How did you manage to pull a scum role on both games after returning so far? Jealous to be honest. I'm a VT again.

[Kassius]

Can only take it as a compliment the comments I'm getting about my play. I'm winging this best I can lol. I wasn't prepared in the slightest for this, I think if I started again I might keep a notebook next to my PC to jot down thoughts and analysis to keep on hand because this gets real convoluted really quickly. I like reading the posts from Vehicle and the_paul, shows some proper analysis that I'm trying to absorb.

Edify I cba to go back and re-quote me challenging you on all your false accusations for a second time, you know you did it and I was just asking why. The fact you won't share your reasons for the baseless shade throwing is all I need, and anyone else that was keeping up on this can make their own conclusions too.

[the_paul]

I'm not really sure what just happened between voth and vehicle, but the underlined part is the closest thing to expressing my thoughts on who to vote on. And again, is it really fair to Wark? No, not really, he hasn't necessarily given me a reason to think he's scum by his play. This is the only reason that I haven't already voted him, I'd prefer to hear the thoughts of others and find another vote that I can feel better about.

[ixt]

As I expected on my sus list.

[ixt]

Especially for one to STILL MAKE THE REMARK of mafia killing one of their own day 1, you’re done for me lmao this is day 3. You say my claim is fake, then what exactly are you? my vote maybe is solidified with some standout remarks in your post
