Things are already looking bad for Xtoxm, although suggesting any sort of day one roleclaiming is probably worthy of a lynch. What I want to know is, why did you bother asking?
In all honestly, I can't say I'd feel okay with lynching someone just because they've asked for a Mass Role-Claim, but like I said, theyiamausername wrote:Does this mean that you'd be fine with Xtoxm being lynched right now?Zakeri wrote:Things are already looking bad for Xtoxm, although suggesting any sort of day one roleclaiming isprobably worthy of a lynch.

Just know that if you die and turn out to be Town, no one's going to look after Armlx just because you said so. If you don't provide your reasoning, we have nothing to go off of other then the fact that you're practically encouraging everyone to vote for you.Xtoxm wrote:I'm not telling you any more.iLord wrote:I suggest that you stop attacking Armlx for no reason and full-claim, since you've claimed to have an anti-town alignment.Xtoxm wrote:I still see scum.
You'll have to get me killed.
Even if I were to begin to believe this statement, why would you go to the length of making yourself the prime target in the first place? Cops of any kind (well, barring Naive, Paranoid, and Random) are valuable information gainers, and should never give themselves away without several guilty results.Xtoxm wrote:Ok.
I'm a daycop with a guilty on armlx.
Lynch him.
Go, go, go.

I'd like to remind everyone not to get distracted by ABR's Claims. Will it's true, in the context of ABR and Xtoxm being both daycops that it's possible and they both hunt for different scum groups, this is unrelated to why we were targeting Xtoxm in the first place.iLord wrote:Guys, Xtoxm may not be scum.
Think about it - ABR has claimed an almost identical role to Xtoxm's, except that it finds a different type of player. These two roles are not mutually exclusive and it seems very likely that both roles could be in the game. I'm thinking that Shinra is a scum group, and that Team Jenova is another scum group, and that ABR and Xtoxm are cops for those groups respectively.
However, if ABR were proven to be lying, then I'd go back to thinking Xtoxm is lying. A daycop is more important than a random townie, however, and after some consideration, I'd rather risk lynching Armlx than Xtoxm.
I'm just banking on the fact that ABR isn't lying. If ABR is telling the truth, Xtoxm is almost confirmed in my eyes.
------------------------------------------
I just read the last page - Cavebear hit the nail on the spot.
He realizes he can't get a bandwagon going on iLord, so he switches to the other guy attacking him. After digging himself further into the ground, he claims daycop with instant (barring ModDelay) results. He then claims in the same post he investigated the same person who was attacking him, and got a Shinra Result.Xtoxm wrote:Armlx's attack against me is just pathetic.
Unvote Vote Armlx
Atleast iLord sounds kinds genuine about it.

This is just wrong no matter how you look at it. How exactly is it that you're okay with picking someone who's only crime is not stating a specific reason when being the 13th person on the bandwagon versus a group of people where one or more of them are lying, and killing one possibly clears or condems the others? I doubt any sort of townie would enjoy having a huge cop claim argument up in the air for several day phases.CallMeLiam wrote:At this point, I'd have no rela problem with side-stepping the chaotic mess that is Xtoxm\ABR\Armlx and just lynching Zac.
How can you not see how weak your reasoning is here? While it's possible that they both could have been daycops, it's also possible that they both could have been lying (and in fact were.) You then compare the best case scenerio against someone who's moveCallMeLiam wrote:This isn't entirely true. Both could be daycops hunting different scum groups, as they've said they both have different methods of detection.

Why sidestep that.This.
Cid's actually a Rather Major character. In fact, once Cloud is brain dead and Tifa begins her journey into Cloud's mind, Cid becomes the Party Leader for a while. I think it's safe to say Allie wouldn't Claim as Cid unless he was Cid or it was provided as a Fake claim.Jebus wrote:And how do we know that you're not doing this 'ABR' gambit as scum for once? (eg, you were town all the other times, but now you're doing it as scum?)
Also, I assume Cid is a minor character. If so, it's quite possible there is no such role named Cid.
the mistake here is believing the nature of my flipflop with ABR is the same as the nature of my flipflop with you and Xtoxm.armlx wrote:In combo with his actions regarding xtoxm vs me yesterday, yes.Zakeri did get off the ABR wagon today, a few of us did, but is the flip flop enough for a vote?
What I meant to say here was that I believed Xtoxm knew Armlx was scum because they were scum buddies. Under that assumption, I felt no qualms about switching. I subsequently Switched back however when it occurred to me that Xtoxm claimed because he was going to get lynched if he didn't, and probably threw out the name of a townie just to make certain one would fall with him.Zakeri wrote:however, it would be absolutely suicidal to claim Daycop with guilty unless he knew the person he was claiming on was scum. Considering what the alternative answer is, it's safe to assume he has the knowledge, so I'm not too worried about swinging
What's the point of asking if he has a Power role? That shouldn't affect whether you think he's scum or not.CallmeLiam wrote:Ultimately, the point was that I'd rather lynch someone acting scummy and hopping onto a popular bandwagon rather than someone who could have been a cop. At this point though, I have no such compunctions. ABR: Do you have a power role of any sort?
Yes. Which is why we should change the subject back to who is more likely to be scum.Which would, essentially, make everything that transpired pointless?
So then does this mean you actually are a Daycop, and are just using your meta to trick people into thinking you're not while avoiding getting lynched for it?Albert B. Rampage wrote:I lie just as Bruce Wayne lies, when he is asked if he is Batman.
I know I'm late, but I seriously disagree with this. We have a very good chance of catching scum today, and I would totally be pissed off if we wasted that chance killing somebody who "Needs to be taught a lesson."

I expressed that I was voting based on utility alone, for I feel the need to rid the game of unhelpful and detrimental players will be the greatest benefit for the town at the moment. Yes, I do indeed believe, as I said, that ABR could in fact be scum, but there is always going to be the possibility of him being town too.
Why didn't you want to Lynch a Claimed cop? Especially one that has performed several scummy actions before his sudden claim? It is very beneficial for Scum to claim cop, after all, and it's not like the Cop would come forward just to object to one person's claims like that.CallMeLiam wrote:Why did I want to test xtoxm before ABR? Well testing Xtoxm's claim didn't involve lynching a claimed cop. If Armlx was indeed town then we could have piled on X afterwards but as I said at the time I wanted no part in lynching a claimed cop.

Yes, you're right, I should.@Zakeri: I hope this (advocating a policy lynch on ABR) isn't the main reason for you having labeled me as one of the "scummy people." If this is the case, then shouldn't you be listing every other person that has/had a vote on ABR that placed it for similar reasons?

The whole argument that ABR's meta = town is shaky.
There in lies the problem with the ABR lynch. This meta does not make him town, nor does it make him scum. His role as bulletproof does not make him town, nor does it make him scum. The idea of a doctor protect does not even have a chance to relate to his alignment, even if the doctor himself was mafia, since they would want to keep ABR alive to get us to waste a lynch if he was town.null-tell

Because I've already pointed out the three people I think deserve a heavy look at.

This is of course, under the assumption that ABR was Vigged and survived by a doctor protect, which is of course what CarnCarn confirmed himself with a name and roleclaim. Judging from Yuffie's role, I'm guessing she protected and role blocked ABR.You guys know from the trackers own mouth that I didn't move on Night One - and if I didn't move, it's reasonably easy to assume what my role is likely to be. Mind you Zak is claiming that's not trusted, because he apparently got blocked... I don't buy that since he would have been told he was blocked, surely, he wouldn't have been told I done nothing.
I'm going to take this point as a compliment, considering the number of people I can communicate with during the night phase (Read: absolutely Zero)MrBuddyLee wrote:

Define "Defend." I was just putting together what he said with what the dead people flipped last night. It was the only logical conclusion I could come up with assuming he was telling the truth.b) you defend CarnCarn and conveniently post the cornerstone of CarnCarn defense in the next post: "obviously ABR was doc protected". A little too coincidental if you ask me.
I insinuated what? I never said Drago was Blocked, I said ABR was blocked, which I thought he could have been. It didn't make sense for anything other than Yuffie Roleblocking/Protecting ABR, and unless Yuffie could pick seperate targets or there was another doctor going around, I figured ZBR just got a no result that was useless.c) You insinuate inside information about drago being blocked? Did this odd remark ever get resolved?

So let me get this straight;
You were only looking for yourself and ABR.
You didn't notice kloud, which was directly below ABR's name.
You did however notice that yuffie was dead, and that she was a doctor.

The Roles are all listed in a Bright Green color, so I was drawn to them.
I didn't see my role, but I saw Cid (ABR) and then Yuffie (I didn't check her name) The others were vanilla.
Well, there were people that were pushing for what looked like a mere policy lynch on someone who they admit could be town when someone who turned out to be scum was bandwagoned. Are you insulted that some people figured out some of those who pushed for the lynch against ABR are the ones trying to get us not to target the mafia?Yosarian2 wrote:Yeah...odd as it is, I still don't entierly trust anyone who was convinced ABR was town yesterday, since I just don't understand how anyone could have possibly figured that out without inside information.
