Like, it literally said “I can’t kill her for being annoying because she’s town”
What scum explicitly says that shit?
Pedit-
Hey, Bingle. You town?-

Haven’t decided yet. Sell me on it.
What does the town have to offer me to side with them? The scumteam sent me a neat fruit basket with gold ribbons."He brings the cool and the muscle" -FakeGod

I can offer to help you finish that fruit basket. It sounds like it has way too many fruits for one to handle.In post 1328, Bingle wrote: Haven’t decided yet. Sell me on it.

The process of figuring out sanities with a liar in the mix has a shell game aspect to it. And I think that aspect is compounded by the cop abilities being inventions (If I interpreted all that correctly).In post 1252, Klick wrote:

...though literally right this second it has occurred to me that the 'Shell Game' could be quite literal within the context of the Dethy, and there is no shell
I don't think marci, ActionDan, or STD are scum
I thought (and still think) that calling a game with a dethy-like component (and another large hood that we know relatively little about so far) a shell game makes sense.
I'm still kinda gnawing on what grpscum in the hood could mean as opposed to a traitor, though I initially thought that would be way overpowered.-

I’m wondering if our hood has like two scum out of six or something for that shell game? I’ve been trying to mull over what I think the game could be for ours but it’s also kinda dead in our hood so meh-

Maybe there’s a mechanic where we play two separate games all at once to get a vanilla cop.-

Flips factor in. Calibrating together once on someone who dies soonish gives the array of results Calibrating a second time on someone the group agrees is not the same alignment as the first calibration has a *chance* of pinpointing the naive and paranoid results if that player also flips soonish.In post 1295, ActionDan wrote: 1. Morph since you have some experience, how long would it take to figure out reliabilites practically using the miller claim as calibration given the circumstances?
BUT, in this scenario where the abilities are inventions means that your hood can't reliably choose the ultimate target. And there's no guarantee you'd send inventions to only town.
To make calibration paramount, I think the best thing would be for the target choice to be a consensus decision including players who aren't in your hood. Whoever you send the inventions to would have to explain themselves if the choose to go against consensus in how they use their inventions.
Another big factor is when the inventions can be used, same night received, or later.-

elaborate?In post 1256, Sunflower wrote: i think that town!klick is capable of finding scum!me. he did it very well recently
i think regardless of alignment he knows that he doesn't have reason to think im scum here
the difference is that i think if he's town he would also know that if we're both town there's a decent chance we can find each other. the fact that he doesn't have reason to think im scum would make him doubt. im on the other side here, not fully confident that klick is scum, and that makes me question AD and marci
the way that his reads on AD and marci progressed from hesitancy/uncertainty to full-on confidence isn't supported and just isn't really believable to me coming from town!klick
this is what i mean by calling the play positional. i think that those reads became solidified out of necessity and not out of justified reason. and i don't think that's how town!klick plays
Also, Klick/Marci/Dan/STD do you agree with sunflower's description of your hood's activities last night?
How so?In post 1261, Gypyx wrote: There is a third hood
How do you reconcile this with Ceph's warning about scum getting an advantage at some point down the line if they're still in the hood at that point.In post 1291, Klick wrote:

Like the thing just now about going from hesitancy/uncertainty to full-on confidence on marci and STD (not ActionDan, I don’t think that matches my progression there?). I... do stuff like that all the time? When I have a reason to think someone is town, I tend towards hard-committal. I think that's one of my defining traits as a player.
My concern is that you're taking uncharitable interpretations of my actions, because pushing me early and getting me out of the way is exactly how I think scum!you would want to approach this situation.
But I am having doubts about you currently, mostly stemming from thinking 0-scum is kind of plausible
I am somewhat intrigued by the idea of players getting swapped in/out of that hood (either hood, really).-

invention is just a 1-shot, we target at night, so they would receive it at end of night, so they'd have to use it the next night

I remember the cabal said that there would possibily be drivers in play?
Is that still possible here? Maybe we should list 2-3 targets so scum has a harder time messing with it?
