This seems like a poor take, especially calling out two people who is always kinda low activity(Cakez) and another who has been low activity in general(Titus)
Titus only popped in to give names today even though she had plenty more to say before and after when giving results yesterday

Cakez is vote hopping and not really expanding on his thoughts

Do you think this is consistent behavior?

Salty we getting to a point where we have a strong town core.

I can also see that scum likely doesn’t know their potential partners and staying very limited with where they push.

I feel like scum are more likely to have a not as good time with this game, especially if AD and Drew are both town here.

And before my reveal of actually being recruitable, with Gamma and I both claiming to be unrecruitable, there was a lot of potential for grumpy scum, and you’re looking like it

I’m not gonna lie…i lied…about that part.

I am recruitable. I just said that so scum wouldn’t use like a Name Cop on me.
LOL, I

your claim was kinda fishy at the time :lol:

Also, i am giving secrets away.

This game looks like it’s setup to have town have roles that scum counter by converting them.

And then like if Bianco gets converted, they can give scum an extra action.

If Titus gets converted, they can manipulate names.

If I get converted, i could spew false information.

apparently he has two different actions, is unrecruitable,
and is also Informed in a way that gives him more info every single day.
So the 2 actions thing, you were just incorrect with, the unrecruitable, sure, I lied about that.

You wanna keep touting I’m more powerful than all the other roles somehow?

I think Leaf, Theta, Drew, Maestro are town by play

bianco is scummy by play but townpoints for role use make up that deficit so above null

I don't even wanna think about Titus, I don't get why people townread her. Best argument for her being town is nearly getting flipped d1 but that's barely worth anything. I agree her d2 was better but that was a low bar, still don't see anything towny.

Dan and Cakez are my top picks for scum. Dan is just aggressively leading charges against townies, and Cakez following.

Roden I saw something in his talk about his role that made me think town on day one, I should go reevaluate if that held up with new info

Thomith... yeah I dunno, if the role gives us a way of confirming its use then town. Haven't really been pinged by his play either way.

Cele/Gamma didn't really ping me either, but another nonrecruitable role makes sense in the setup given the 3p win condition. Not sure why Rat thinks it wouldn't work with their role, but I'm not sure how redirecting to an Ascetic would work- would they be unable to be targeted with the redirect?

I trust Thomith on tone and generally being upfront with that, but I don’t think there’s anyway of proving they stop Factional Abilities.

As of this moment, we don’t know of any besides the presumed Conversion ability, and i don’t think we can confirm one way or another if that went through even if they use it, so they could be lying.

I think we can use that right after a Mass Claim.

In post 1449, Flavor Leaf wrote: I felt it was best to protect the info. Yes, there was a chance I got randomly picked, but that was fine in comparison to potentially getting Real Name copped on Night 1.

We’re deeper into this game now, that gambit I think hopefully played off. I have not been converted. :shrug:
That makes more sense tbh, I still don't like it but it's less likely that you're group scum in this case.

I don't really agree that it was a viable gambit though, like if this were a Normal game and you claimed Bulletproof investigative then I don't think scum would buy it lol. At worst, your claim just protects you in case you did get converted since I don't think most townies would ever question your role.

If you're telling the truth about scum conversion just turning townies into Traitors, then I don't think scum have any reason to be grumpy. It's Day 3 and no scum have been elim'd yet, and even if any were in danger then up to two Traitors (possibly three since someone claimed the game started with a Traitor) can control the discussion and act as meat shields. Town cores aren't as strong in this set up as it's been described.

I did misunderstand your double action, since you were vague about it and didn't give your results. Your clarifications have changed my perspective here, but you did cause that in the first place by trying to gambit.

I feel like it was clearly stated I got coffee on Day 2 that gave me the choice to drink and gave me a double action.

Bianco even confirmed this.

This makes me comfortable with Bianco town because Bianco as scum would give that to a scum team.

This also makes sense that if scum convert Bianco, they’d get rewarded with a double action play.

I feel like that wouldn’t work with conversion?

@Bianco - does your role bring this up? Is it just personal actions?

i dont think it makes sense for Bianco to confirm it if they were scum, and I dont think it makes sense for both of us to claim instead of keeping quiet if both of us were scum, but I definitely see arguments on how it could be scum partnering.

If both your claims are legit, I agree it makes no sense for both of you to be scum

And I would rather not waste brain power sorting there(with the conversions and all)

This is exactly correct, you have seemed to have some IRL stuff as of late, Titus

Not sure why Roden is painting your inactivity as scummy

to be fair i am not sure how many people know why titus is low activity

aureal i do not think is scum
that vote on dan just does not make sense for scum to do

p-edit
it did seem kinda like that but maybe i misread

I pretty specifically mentioned interest as well, not just activity, and followed up my statement by saying that I don't think Titus' behavior today matches her behavior yesterday

I don't know why Drew is honed in on the word "activity" when I said much more than just that, since I feel like I made it pretty clear that activity alone does not make up the entire basis of my reads on Titus and Cakez
