I think that just theprof being vague,  all my PMs when I have pro-town roles says that I win when the town wins, its probably him reciting his PM and adding a little extra too it to cause a stir. I cant think of a third party that would fall into that situation, third party kinda implies that he has his own win scenario like a cult or a SK.

Nice slip here.

so are you saying that your current pro-town PM says this? cause you did say all and the freshest one (the one that should be similar to prof's as you say) must be the one from this current game.

umh I'm really considering changing my vote right there... will see once I've caught up to the thread.

What slip? He said "all my PMs when I have pro-town roles" he never implied the PM for this round.

lol, and you don't think it would be a slip up if he implied his PM was for a not-pro-town role?

Oh man, that went right over my head.  Now Heph's post makes sense.

you said that the PMs when you have pro-town roles say you win when the town win. By saying When, it seems like you don't have a Pro town role this game. I assumed you were talking about past games, but Final Fan and Heph think it could have been a slip up of you revealing an anti-town role for this game.

I'm not saying he played his hand perfectly but after the "plan" he tried to execute, people were bound to realize he had no vote.  So when that happened his chance of luring scum to kill him dropped considerably so roleclaiming was the logical choice at that point.

Also quoting for attention since this is one of the big reasons Heph revoted me.

Exactly, why take the chance that the mafia missed it? if they missed, oh horror they might lose a kill on wonk. And if they didn't miss it... how are we hurt by letting it unknown until wonk is in danger of lynch and is forced to claims?

It's like the lottery, you don't win if you don't play... and we had a free ticket, you just ripped it appart cause the chances were low.

It's like the "no lynch is a heresy" attitude, well last round it gave the town the extra day it needed... the lottery ticket paid out. (recall that the most fervent no lynch advocate last round was proff... mafia who was enoyed at the delayed kill they had... and you, who had not read your PM and therefore could not be thinking 100% with the town's interest at mind, but only your own).

Free and unharmfull gambits are rare, this was one and how ever little the odds, it shouldn't have been revealed until wonk felt the need.

You mean why not take the chance that they missed it? Only way I see that happening is if the mafia are all bad players, and if that's the case then town shouldn't have a problem winning regardless. IF they did someone miss it, it still hurts town if Wonk goes unclaimed, but it has nothing to do with him being in danger of being lynched. Had town gone into what they thought was lylo with Wonk unclaimed it would already be a loss barring night actions giving a chance to win. And if it were mylo town might choose to not lynch thinking they could get more information at night, but would likely lose outright if he wasn't targeted. Futhermore, voteless isn't always a pro-town role nor does it exclude having some night ability if pro-town. The only thing I was after was Wonk's ability to vote or not, because that should always be considered for the future days.

 

The no lynch last round only gave town the extra day because of how the game later played out. Two early mislynches last round and there's no way the backup mafia is activated. I don't understand your no lynch advocacy talk. prof didn't end the day on no lynch though he did vote it at one point, and I was completely for a lynch there.

I am personally not prepared to make a case against someone based on a presumption of how the mod would word someone else's PM (not everyone uses the same template for all roles), and additionally this is skating on thin ice as far as what is kosher metagaming IMO. 

But to break it down for you, Heph is figuring that if you say your PM says "you win when the town wins" then you're lying scum ... or something similar to that. 

Wildvine didn't see that, and I told him.  That's all.

I don't have all the information on my role. I have enough to know I don't need to read the first unless I'm being forced to claim, which nobody has even asked for. I said quite a while ago that I'd read my PM if a claim was asked for, but otherwise what is the point?

Why should we give you answers to save yourself? that should be your concern.

All that is evident is that your reluctance to claim unless forced to means that you're uneasy claiming before you have the slightest idea of the types of roles others have and which ones you should avoid... don't fuel the fire firefighter!

The questions to people asking what they want is mostly rhetorical. I've already stated myself how nothing I say is likely to believed, and that itself is a reason not to read my PM since it would do no good for the people voting me.

I'm willing to nameclaim. There would be no need to fake a roleclaim, because and with this much suspicion there's no way to pro-town lie about my roleclaim so as to either not make myself a night target or to make myself a night target so the other townies that actually have usefl roles would be less likely to be killed. There's no way to lie about it because if I have no ability then I won't be able to fake having one,(or at the least I'd have to be very lucky) and if I have an ability then I'm going to be hung down the road when I fess up. As such I would definitely have to tell the absolute truth, which townies aren't going to believe fully, but it will offer scum information that I'd rather they not have.

By the way I've already picked up on a few hints of roles, so if I were scum I would know a few to avoid. I haven't pointed any of them out, because if the people are actual town it would be bad to out them as they don't have roles that could be detrimental to town if unclaimed. I'll be looking for a change in tune or a conflucting roleclaim down the line in case they're scum so I can then point them out though.

On one hand I really want Linkz to make a claim, but taking into account the earlier extravaganza I don't see what's stopping him from bullshitting, there is virtually no way to verify his innocence but the guilt may be evident in this case. However I am  not confident enough in his scumminess to push for a lynch, due to the offchance of him actually being town and maybe even a powerful one at that, I'll leave him in my sights for now and won't make an offhand decision on his play style, although I do highly dislike it, please don't do something as shit as this again, and try not to encourage others to do the same in the forseeable future.

I think I'll just watch you for the rest of the game, the likelyhood of you being scum is as high as a townie, However, I am not prepared to make a gamble such as that on day one.

Taking note.

NotStan belives there are powerfull and less powerfull townies.

Why did you feel the need to point this out without saying anything about it?



Silver-Tiger said:

There's a reason why I unvoted Linkz, I can't imagine why he would come up with the PM story if he's scum (I mean that he read the PM and is scum, but pretends he did not read it). he pratically paints a target on himself. I just don't expect such a move from an experienced player like Linkz. He is a hell of an dangerous player for the scum if he's town. That's why I don't want to loose him. Of course he's as dangerous as scum player, but.... something tells me he is pro-town.

(Enlarged text so it would be easier to read)

I'm not sure I really like your trust, but right now I need to take every ally I can get to not be lynched. On a similar note, though I think he's scum, NotStan seems unwilling to vote for me, so for self-preservation I shouldn't be trying to get him lynched or he'll be forced to vote me for his own sake.

Unvote



I was going to say something but i'll wait for linkz to catch up first. I'll be back in a little while.
