I keep returning to the idea of Brazil being scum. It seems highly unlikely with the way that they've played but there's just a slight doubt at the back of my mind.

With the way Brazil is digging into me, I'm suspicious of this, too. He's doing a good job pushing for me and another to be flipped now that Zubz turned up vanilla, so I wonder where the conversation will go after me and another get flipped.

I guess you’re gonna try fighting your lynch by pushing me if it comes to that, huh.
 

rac

whatever
just wondering because i dont see how scum would have a way to nerf itas get protection from itas and have a role with built in ita protection

seems like a lot for a 15% chance to kill

Town had a way to buff ITAs so that's probably all to protect against that. Then Kawl has his 50% chance to hit as well.

So... I apologise in advance if this doesn't work out but I can't get this idea out of my head and if it's right, we may end up losing the game because I don't see Brazil getting lynched anytime soon.

I think that the lynch order that has been set up is bad and that it'll lead us to towns death. I'm fairly confident that there is scum outside of Oreo, faircure and me (although I know the result of that one) and if we setup these two shots and the lynch in advance, I think there's a chance we'll be down three town players and in a potentially bad situation. This is naturally the ideal situation that scum would want us to be in and why I think Brazil proposed it.

I have no reason to believe this beyond gut feeling but I think we have more than 1 scum left. So if we end the day with 7 people and 1 person dies tonight, then a day shot tomorrow, we'll be down to 5 people and at lylo. Maybe I'm only condemning us to a similar fate but with slightly different players but we need to do something different rather than take safe shots at people who haven't done much. Brazil is fairly confident that we have 1 scum left but that seems presumptuous and not a risk that I'd be willing to take at this stage.

I don't believe Faircure is scum and despite reading her posts, I don't really see the case for shooting her beyond simply eliminating players. We shouldn't shoot players just to check them off a list at this point. We could win this game today but not by taking safe shots. I think Oreo is slightly more likely to be scum but at the very least, they aren't relevant for these shots right now since they are ITA immune. I haven't thought about them much since I might not make it out of this phase myself.

I've been deliberating over this since I got the shot yesterday and this is the decision that I've come to. I didn't discuss it in advance because if Brazil does end up being scum, I wanted to minimise any potential influence that he may wield over the discussion due to how many people town read him.

BULLSEYE: Brazil

I hope this works out because this has been gnawing at me since last night. Rac can decide how to proceed from here. If needed, I'll accept any consequences of my action. Let's see how Brazil flips first.
 
I literally typed arguments against all of the people I'm suggesting we shoot throughout multiple phases. The arguments are there for you to read. I didn't simply show up and point fingers randomly.
 
Then I guess we only have one scum? Thought Kalor was scum after that shot, but if he’s the last one what the fuck would that do?

About 15 minutes left, since it’s the last one of the day, that’s more of a soft limit, it’ll probably extend by a few minutes.
 
Why would DCPat distance himself from faircure after giving her the antidote in the event if she was town?

Shoot

faircure
 
RIP Blarg.

Welcome faircure,

You are Black Bolt. True Identity Blackagar Boltagon.

Your role is Town Vanilla. You do not have any abilities but you may still vote and participate in ITA sessions.

You win when all threats to town are eliminated

Brazil, don’t we have only one scum left? Can oreo be it with his delay role confimed + ITA immunity and day kill?

Is he this game’s Sorian?

Maybe. Maybe the day kill is factional.

But I don't know. Maybe it's oreo and someone else, or maybe two other players. Maybe the scum left is Polter - he took the lead after 5 days in the background when 11 other scum died. Maybe it's you - Coolest's nonsensical shots at you could be a scum-scum gambit. Who knows. I'm tired.
 
Haha.

I also had the thought that the day kill could be a factional power just now, which would really mess with what info we have.

If oreo flips scum, and is not the day killer, and we are still not over then Polter would be number one suspect for me. His push for pure vanillas came pretty sudden and it only makes sense if the day kill is actually a power role. If it’s actually a secondary and shared power between scum then this is a wild-goose chase.

Why would Kalor shoot me as scum? What's the point?
We had set up pretty firmly that he was going to shoot Faircure and then rac was going to shoot him.

In what world would scum kalor not do something different in the hopes of getting that to change.
 

Kawl

Owner of the Gun Show
Yeah. I'm fine with letting you go first if you want to.

If everyone wanted me ITAed, I probably shouldn't be using my shot.

I mean, of course not but I'll shoot faircure. May as well do something helpful before I exit the game.

I sort of want to shoot myself but obviously people might not trust that.

Considering how cooperative rac and Kalor have been with these rewards I'd be surprised if one of them flipped scum. Well, maybe the don't have a choice in the end but those reactions felt really good to me.

Maaaaaaaaaaaan

Dropping the ground work for his pivot. Despite being asked to do something else and agreeing to do that other thing.
Then I guess we only have one scum? Thought Kalor was scum after that shot, but if he’s the last one what the fuck would that do?
Because the plan called for him to get shot next. Faircure and kalor were the two on the block by wasting his shot he can bank on y’all shooting Faircure instead of his suspicious ass and leaving through another day.

In light of his non cooperation, do you still feel he isn’t scum as you posted yesterday?
 

Kalor

Kay-lor? Kah-lor?
I was thinking of doing this even when I posted about shooting Faircure. I didn't think Faircure was scum but wasn't sure who else to go to. Oreo would be my first choice if they weren't ITA immune so I went for something more risky, which of course didn't work out. I mention this in my post with the shot but I didn't want to even allude to it because I knew there would be push back. The ground work was of course intentional, I wanted to gauge the common sentiment against Brazil but that didn't work so well when only Oreo responded.
 

Kalor

Kay-lor? Kah-lor?
I will add this, I was expecting to be dead after that phase. At no time did I think that I was getting out of that alive. I thought that I would have been a policy shot just to make sure.

And yet you did it any ways.

Lol risking it on people going soft over just letting things run it’s course when the bullseye on your head sure seems like the higher % play as scum
 

Kawl

Owner of the Gun Show
Between the sawneeks thing and this, if you aren’t scum you’ve done a great job of making it impossible for me to want to see any one else flip before you.

Wouldn't shooting Rac be the higher % play as scum or is that too blatant?
 

Kawl

Owner of the Gun Show
But seriously y’all think scum kalor is going to follow on the rails we set to get him shot the fuck up?
 

Kawl

Owner of the Gun Show
I can see the logic of town kalor doing what he did in a misguided attempt to win, but I also don’t see the logic in scum kalor ever following through. So he’s the lynch.
 
And you're right, Kawl. Even if I think a scenario in which town!Kalor flips out and tries to be the hero is likely, the ideal town move for him would've still been to follow through and eliminate the three players people have suspicions of, as opposed to shooting someone else no one is suspicious of simply because he could.

Considering the rest of the players we have,

rac - Someone with a confirmed power that we're all 99% sure is not scum.
Ynnek - Confirmed townie.
Kawl - Green-checked with someone else already flipped as scum godfather.
LuxCommander - Trusted player with confirmed actions and role/motivations for actions that fit with a townie's.
Fandorin - Trusted player who was shot by Coolest this very phase.
Poltergust - The player who killed LP.
oreo - ITA immune.

Shooting me was actually the only possible "wrong move" scum!Kalor could've possibly been able to justify.
