I think that his claim of homeless test subject is possible. I don't think with how familiar he is with portal he would fakeclaim a human that isn't named. With all the cores there are in the game claiming machine would be safer. Even claiming other would be safer.

I have tried to look as his contradictions of opinions between discussing scum possibilities and then not wanting to even category claim as a scum and as town.

As scum I guess if his name is accurate he could hope to get someone who is named lynched down the line, or maybe find possible power roles although if the town had consensus on roles that would be power or scum I doubt people would come forward at all latter. Then why such a strong flip? Did his opinion flip based on your earlier assertion and he just want to follow along? So if he was thinking it wold be the popular option Then why wait until the end to come forward? because he wasn't a named character? It's not like homeless test subject screams scum.

As town I see him trying to come up with a way to potentially catch scum. I see him then reading your post about the role discussion and then realizing that maybe even the character type might be too much and thus not wanting it.

Since then his run down with prof they both made some bad points. I can easily see a person having a theory on a bad foundation and arguing it to be true, I have done it before especially with prof. I can more easily see him a a townie with an odd roll getting flustered with his theories than as a scum.

However.

I was hoping he would either make some of these points I made, or at least start being useful as a townie. Since I have made some points that could be his defense now I won't really believe him if he says it's the case. He has had more than enough time to make a case for himself and or against someone else. He has instead decided to lurk.

Vote: Morenoingato

@Bold: So we'd have another Stefl? The problem with that theory in my mind is that having no name as he puts it and thinking that others have no name; there would be zero reason to caution against typeclaims while mentioning how few characters there are.

I think it was FF that said I consider the claim itself as evidence against moreno. That's not the case. I think it's fake given the circumstances, but by itself I have no issue with it.

I think his interaction with prof is the only good thing he had going for him. THAT behavior does fit his claim and thinking everyone else would also be unnamed. It was illogical for a different reason(compared to behavior leading up to the claim) as I pointed out, but that wasn't scummy to me.

 

Anyway, glad you've relieved some of my doubts. It's still not a good enough explanation to me, but it seems like an honest effort to analyze it from both angles.
