New Year's Eve Masquerade Ball - [Game Over]

[MiniDeathStar]

If Dunn flips town well. Good game scumlords.

[inspectorscout]

I don't mind dunnstral dying. I just don't know if it's the right thing for you to do. My reads are apparently a mess so Arthur can be scum

[MiniDeathStar]

Tomorrow's list:
1) force jester to justify that FUGLY hop on our wagon
2) figure out a legit town read from Dunn/scout/jester
3) DO NOT SUICIDE (since scum/scum is mechanically possible)

Obviously ignore #3 if pie flips scum. I'll cheer you on from dead thread, it'd be nice to grab a rare win I didn't really deserve (usually it's the reverse in my town games )

On a second thought...

[MiniDeathStar]

Inspector, you said you'd been looking for a town/town pair. I don't remember seeing any meaningful townhunting from you though. Can you point out where? PT counts too.

Have you reached any conclusion so far? Who are your townreads? You ought to have some.

[MiniDeathStar]

Arthur, is there any reason to doubt inspector at all, beyond sheer paranoia?

[MiniDeathStar]

Like, I really really want to believe that inspector/Arthur is indeed town/town and game is basically solved, but the inspector part just doesn't make it very easy on me.

[inspectorscout]

When did I say I was townhunting?

And if I may be honest, you were kind of my town-town pair, but then smith happened.

[Dunnstral]

This is why order is important. Scout is scum. I wouldn't want mhsmith dead after his lynch

Mhsmith and I weren't even in a dichotomy. Seriously. The ones pushing that are ones outside. Only reason I'm suspected is because scumhunter extordinairre pieguy had it out for me


Where I'm at: scout scum for sure. Probably scum with jester or sad
Scout sad has the potential of being doublle scum. A bus would really benefit them. There was a lot of posturing around suiciding.

If not sad then jester, but I'll only argue that if it becomes relevant

I'm pretty sure Kagami is town, she wouldn't put herself in this situation
There's also high probability she suicides. Because she said she would, even if she doesn't scumread me which I don't know if she does

[Dunnstral]

Seriously, we're about to lose having done the opposite of what I've said to all game

[Dunnstral]

If Dunn flips town well. Good game scumlords.

But they didn't do anything. Town made a conscientious effort to put aside everything I've said

[Dunnstral]

Dunn? You scummo? It's you and Jester isn't it? Like both of you have been super super super against me suiciding, at all points of the game.

I may have made a mistake, admittadly. Not right to only blame you guys if I defended scum jester who did nothing all game

Unless it's sad scout in which case redact the above

[Dunnstral]

I think me and inspector are both fine with leaving dance. I've resigned that it's better to leave now than be pushed during a potential lylo or endgame and then lose for town that way.

Please don't rule out Dunn/mhsmith. If mhsmith flips scum the people left will have to choose between Dunn and Jester/MDS. That is not a situation I want to be in, but I will say that if I were I would probably go for Dunn in the end for his push on a town/town pair to leave dance. It will up to you Kagami though.

If inspector is actually scum then go nuts I don't have any advice. (Actually real talk if he is scum then keep mhsmith alive, but if he does leave dance - and I'll wait for him to do the dead - then 99% sure he's town and this is not a long con gambit to have mhsmith his partner win by endgaming).

Are you still thinking about this btw?

No response to this.

[Dunnstral]

if both mhsmith and Dunn end up being town, I apologize in advance. I'm painfully aware that I'm terrible at this game, so feel free to hate on me or get mad at me or do whatever you want.

I'm not mad

nust a bit salty

and disappointed

[Dunnstral]

Sorry if I threw you off with my play - the post spamminess snd stuff... It's habitual

[Dunnstral]

I don't really wanna see scout/sad suicide right now. I'd rather see smith/pie flip

VOTE: smith/pie

Hmm.

[Ser Arthur Dayne]

Arthur, is there any reason to doubt inspector at all, beyond sheer paranoia?

Well yeah when I was pushing Parama he was trying to convince me of mhsmith/pie wagon instead.

The problem is that read looks genuine because right after I lynched shadow he was pushing mhsmith, like before day had opened and Parama started to push me. He couldn't have possibly knew I was gonna scumread Parama that hard. If they were scum together he could've known Parama was gonna push me, but he didn't know what I was gonna do. So I don't think inspector would be risky enough to try and convince me of another mislynch knowing I would super suspect him over it. Thats why it looks like he believes in what he was pushing.

[Ser Arthur Dayne]

Can't tell if this is scum-Dunn trying to take over town now that it's on lylo and hoping to get a quick mislynch on my pair or this is town-Dunn super worried we're gonna lose this game and is trying to do his best to push what he thinks.

[inspectorscout]

Where I'm at: scout scum for sure. Probably scum with jester or sad
Scout sad has the potential of being doublle scum. A bus would really benefit them. There was a lot of posturing around suiciding.

This is shit

I believed in what I was doing until now.

[Ser Arthur Dayne]

Lets just assume MDS is town right now because it doesn't matter if only one of her/Jester is scum. And Kagami my strongest town read right now.

If there are no scum/scum pairs then I would rank the likelihood something like:

Dunn/Jester
inspector/Jester
Dunn/inspector

Now the real problem is if there is a scum/scum pair. If there isn't, then I really doubt scout is scum with Dunn, Dunn's push could be scum bussing, but the inspector side of the interaction doesn't make sense to me at all of a buddy. That means it has to be Jester + Dunn/inspector.

BUT the problem is If Jester is lynched first and Dunn/Kagami is scum/scum we lose. Same thing with if Kagami leaves and Jester/MDS is scum/scum. And if Kagami leaves it could still be inspector/Jester...

[Ser Arthur Dayne]

Hmmm

What is more likely

Dunn/Kagami scum/scum
Jester/MDS scum/scum

[inspectorscout]

Kagami isn't scum

But that's what I think

[Kagami]

omg, hi.

Is it suicide time? Probably not for a few RL days.

[Kagami]

My biggest issue right now is that if jester is scum, I'd feel really terrible if he won.

[The_Jester]

I'm not scum nor will I have any satisfaction if I win cause it'll be blind luck on my side. What can I say? Should've let Mini leave when she asked me long time ago.

[Kagami]

I'm glad you're continuing your pair's fine tradition of pity-party-posting.

This is the part of the game where if you're town, you should be trying very very hard to secure a win. If you're certain that MDS is town, then that means constructing some solid argument for why at least one of SAD-Scout is scum.
