impertinence said: I really don't think it makes much sense to think Spurge was a miller. For one, I would think the flip would reveal him as a miller if he indeed was, second if Spurge was a miller it doesn't make sense that he never claimed it. If he was miller he should have claimed that immediately, or at the very least not lie and force suspicion on himself. In any case, after he was scanned he would definitely have claimed. Anything else makes absolutely no sense. I think it makes much more sense to find out why Khan scanned him as scum when he wasn't. Either the scan was redirected or corrupted somehow, or he was lying about it. I guess Stefl could have targeted Spurge and redirected the scan onto himself (not sure if that is possible with the different confirmations we have, would have to go back and recheck this). Or, Khan is not really a cop and has been playing us the whole game. In this case, White was likely the real cop and Khan stole his claim. It also likely means the Hylian is scum as well and the whole scan me please and confirmation was set up to clear him. |
I don't see why i would lie about it. If i were scum and running a deception, i would have heaped suspicion on Spurge in the first "Settle it in Smash" way back when, and not outed padib who had very little suspicion against him until i decided it had to be him (and it turns out i was really right about that: the other three of us were, in fact, town).
I'm currently running on the "my power is more useless than it seems" card, myself.
At this point, though, it's either Hylian or somebody who has voted for scum in the past.

So your power just randomly got Yoshiya correct, randomly got me wrong, and randomly got spurge wrong, and instead of pushing spurge on Day 2 I pushed Yoshiya? Is that what you're saying? Okay dude. Rather than believe there's an established role out there, miller, you're going to go for your power being fake. You're not a flavor cop, because the bat and the balance board only give flavor for character, not alignment or role, and if that were all your power does, you'd get items for everyone, and your PM wouldn't say anything about whether the item was dangerous or not. You're not a role cop, because again, the bat and balance board say nothing about the roles of their owners. You're not an item cop, because there's no reason to believe either spurge or Yoshiya had items. Especially not spurge. What you are is a normal, traditional alignment cop. The item your scouts bring back always indicates that the person is dangerous, because if there were no "dangerous items" then your scouts would bring back nothing at all. It doesn't mean they're unarmed, it means they're town. You're not going to get a power that does nothing but give random reads. Not when there's a more logical explanation. You're using terrible logic again, and your insistence that suddenly your power does nothing now that it's killed a townie is really rubbing me the wrong way. Your power either does do something and spurge was a one time fluke due to being a hidden miller, or you're a scum rolecop or other investigative role and that's why I saw you investigate me.
In fact, finger of suspicion at both you AND imp. You for pushing this "my power doesn't actually work" bullcrap and clearing imp, imp for being cleared by you and saying it's not a miller when it obviously is.
Also, if you were scum running a deception, heaping suspicion on spurge before there was any hard evidence like there was yesterday would have just gotten you killed. If you're scum, you bussed padib because he was the only other person people were going for that wouldn't get you lynched the next day, and you bussed Yoshiya because stefl already exposed him as having targeted spurge. Then you used your credibility provided by helping with Yoshiya to make us all believe your spurge scan because spurge was an easy target.
Now I personally want to believe you're town, Khan, but I just can't buy this "my power seemed to work but now it doesn't and I don't know why" crap. You have to admit, the first day, my logic against you was sound. You played scummy. And you have to admit, the narrative in the paragraph above this one is possible. Maybe not likely, but possible, at least in the mind of anyone who doesn't know your alignment for sure, and all I know is that you investigated, not what sort of investigation it was or what your alignment is. Now if I were you and I were town, I'd suggest you start going back to Occam's Razor ASAP. The simplest explanation is that you DO have a role, it's NOT utterly and completely useless, and spurge was a miller. Hell, maybe he even knew he was a miller, and didn't want to say because he thought it would just make things worse. Either way, Occam's razor says either you did go somewhere and spurge just lied about you, or you're scum, and that either spurge is a miller, or you're scum, because you having a power that makes you think you went somewhere when in fact you didn't and gives you random reads on people is FUCKING STUPID AND OUTLANDISH.
