Let's analyse SM128's recent statements together because they're interesting to say the least.

So officer Mario wuts your item?
And is it bound only to you or town bound (as in you can discard it and other townies can use it)
|
My role allows me to scan people, but that is in no way related to an item. Thus I cannot lose my ability to scan people and no one can take it from me. First night I didn't have an item, but I did after I scanned Prof. I would rather not reveal my item yet because it may be useful to the town. If the mafia know what it is then it won't be.
|
Recap:
- He doesn't have an item, his role allows him to scan
- He got an item from prof
- The item could be useful to the town only if Mafia doesn't know about it

So you scanned theProf and took his item from him? |
Pretty much, but just his "piece of paper" since he already used the cookie beforehand apparently. The same thing will not happen once I scan someone again, as it only worked on the first night.
|
- He reveals what the item is (prof's piece of paper)
- He emphasizes that getting the item is a one-shot deal
Already at this point, some things are off. The item he got being the piece of paper from the fortune cookie doesn't fit with "the Mafia must not know about it because it'll be useless" and the part about getting the item only once sounds a cover up which prevents him from having to reveal what item he got from a player everyday.

Didn't you just say that you didn't want to reveal what your item is?

Spurge already guessed it anyway, so I guess it wasn't that big of a secret. Either way it doesn't matter. I assume my paper will be used in a similar way to how it was used for Prof. If someone tries to target me I will know who. (As long as I am still alive to talk about it, which should be the case since the doctor will protect the cop)
|
- He states that the identity of the item wasn't a big deal after all.
- He totally misinterprets how prof's fortune cookie works

Never mind what I said before. Stefl worded my PM role very confusingly. My ITEM is the scanning tool and it is bound to me until I die. Prof still has his piece of paper. I interpreted it as "you get the the item of the first player you scan" and it is then bound to you.
No one should over react to this, I was not intentionally trying to misinform people... |
- He backpedals on not having an item and stealing from prof.
Changing your story never looks good but with a bit of imagination I can think of a wording that would have made him think he was stealing the item from his first scan. It would go something like this: "[...] at night you can scan a player. For your first scan, you'll also get the item he's holding". In that situation, Stefl would have meant "get info on the item" and SM128 would have thought he physically got the item. It's a long shot but possible.

But that doesn't make any sense. Whether or not you misinterpeted your PM role and item description, you would have received a PM after scanning prof that told you that you also received a piece of paper. You cannot misinterpret whether or not you received this piece of paper, because it was either noted in the PM you got after scanning prof or it wasn't noted.
|
I was notified that he was town and that he had a piece of paper, because I misinterpreted my original message I thought I would also receive that piece of paper. I probably should have cleared things up with Stefl before hand, but the important thing is that I got it right now. Thus, we should move on and focus on what really matters.
|
This seems in line with what he stated in the previous post

Do not buy, not one bit.. lynch all liars. Not so much the going back on what was originally said part, but there is no chance you didn't know you had an item and it was player bound from the start.

This doesn't mean prof must be scum as well, but it's hard to see why he'd defend a town prof without latching onto the claim and voting trucks.(Or did he? VOTALS!?!?!)
|
I already said I messed up and should have clarified with Stefl. I admit this does look very suspicious and I don't blame anyone for thinking so, but lynching the cop because he made a silly/ stupid mistake is a terrible idea. I haven't lied about what I have said so far and did not mean to misinform anybody. If people don't believe I am the cop then let me scan someone tonight so I can report my findings at the start of the day. This will confirm I am the cop since I will also be able to tell you what item they have, not just alliance.
|
SM128 apologizes for the mix up and bargains with Linkz and that's where it gets very interesting. He promises not only an investigation but also the item of the investigated player... but going back through his statements, he made it clear the item thing was a one shot-deal but now that's apparently just part of his power.
I can buy a little misterpretation of a PM but that's just too much and it looks like somebody panicking and adapting his story to cover up for his earlier mistakes.
