Are there ever multiple trackers in a game?

We have to remember that Tajo was in a lot of trouble earlier. And tracker might have been a safe fakeclaim, given that we would expect a bunch of power roles in a game like this to track, if a real tracker existing wouldn't have exposed that someone was lying.

If Tajo is scum, he was exceedingly lucky when his alleged scumteam started being picked off and they all flipped town...
I wouldn't expect multiple trackers in the game, no, although I have seen that. But I would expect maybe a stronger information role like a cop, or other kinds of info roles.

I find it very odd for there to be SO many vanilla and then two random power roles.
Talk nerdy to me.

Well, we need to think about not only what roles we expect, but also what it would have made sense for Tajo, if scum, to fakeclaim.

Well it would make sense for him to claim a weaker info role. There's less chance of him getting counterclaimed. Like when I'm scum I have claimed backup cop. That's like the scummiest claim in the world. Tracker that gets roleblocked every night is almost as scummy.

That's because you lie to yourself about there not being three neighbours claimed in this game.

What made you think that? Be specific.

Why was elvis your second choice?

Elvis, dont be silly. If I were scum and I knew mafia were all goons then I wouldnt have claimed tracker. Thats so weak coming from me. Also, the assumption that me and Empking ahve to be scum together is indeed weak since Empking could have easily fakeclaimed vanilla if he were scum.

This isnt a mountanious setup since we have 3 masons a claimed doctor and 1 roleblocker (yes i know you would have to be me to realize this).

In other news, Xyl is scum.

Vote : Xyl.
Call me Tajo.

Tajo, you've played several games with me. Why do you think I'm scum? Is it based on some meta, or are you going off a general tell?

Do I have to make a case against you to prove that you have been off all the game, specially when pushing DGB wagon

Do you admit that you arent playing your current town meta and that your play here painfully reminds me of Mind Screw?

I admit nothing. Yes, you have to make a case. My views on self-voting should be well known by now.

In the meanwhile, I'm trying to determine your alignment. So answer the questions lest you make yourself look like evasive scum.

I have been suspicious of Xyl all game, but you'll have to put a case together that doesn't involve meta to convince me.

Rofl wasn't posting and when he did post he was trying to lead the town.

Elvis has been posting like she's scum hunting.

I think you could be scum. I'm grilling you to get information to make up my mind.

If you don't answer the questions the answer will be "yes, because he didn't answer the questions".

What exactly was different between roflcopter and elvis that made you think rofl was "trying to lead the town" whereas elvis was "scum hunting"?

Most of ROFL's posts were telling people to vote for somebody. Most of Elvis' posts were trying to work out who were scum.

Because I dont have time to quote things in my office.

I have voted Xyl since yesterday and I have explained why. No one listens me just because Im a claimed tracker in a "mointanuos" setup. No one.

Well, then you ahve a doctor and 3 masons, are you going to listen me now? Even after Emp claimed you came out with "oh, look, this is so easy, Emp and Tajo are scum, lynchplox".

Elvis, you think Xyl is town?

No, I'm referring to the ones about why you think I'm scum. But that one's good to have answered too.

As for the point of the question, I'm looking for possible inconsistencies between your answers and your play, as well as things that might lead to followup questions. That's how grilling works.

Just answer this question. I want to understand your reasoning here. You don't need to provide the supporting evidence, just say why you think I'm scum in as much detail as you remember off the top of your head.

I don't know.

Tell me why you think he's scum. Generally. I don't care about quotes or a long windbag post. Just the main points.

Also, interested to what you said about mindscrew3 and how you think he's the same.
