Slip in Nancy's 429? Not running her up today but need to make sure we talk about this tomorrow.
Yup. Would vastly prefer to lynch her off that alone. It shows knowledge of there being a roleblocker in the setup. The only people who would know for sure the setup are scum and the jailkeeper, and scum would be more likely to be fixated on jailkeeper to the point where they forget main thread knowledge isn't in line with that. The jailkeeper would be doing everything in their power to not slip knowledge of the setup because scum could find them and nightkill them in that situation.
Agreed. Thanks to nancy for ruling out the nancy-jailkeeper scenario:

Not voting Nancy.

Taking note of how easy it is to derail EL without a claim.

Seeing as you didn't accept it, I'll just speak plainly.

First of all, you're assuming I'm bad at adapting to new information. When EccentricLemon didn't claim despite being under pressure I assumed that she was PR and didn't want to out herself until absolutely necessary because this would hurt town. Her recent posting or lack thereof speaks of a kind of resignation to being lynched. I believe that if she were mafia, she would not respond to this by barely posting anything.

I've been prodding and poking people for reactions all day, and the actions of the past several hours have been particularly telling. With , Jae's jump to pinning me as a mafia roleblocker told me that they must be the jailer. My "slip" after makes complete sense if I am Jailer, or even just as a newb post being ignorant of the matrix, but they jumped to the roleblocker. I proceeded to attempt a roleswap with Jae and tried to diminish his value to Town so as to try to divert a newbscum team from killing them. The end.

Oh and by the way, you were wrong about Lemon flailing. So I believe that putting pressure on her in order to test her reaction after it had become apparent that she was more confident was justified.

Now trying to wriggle out of it.

When did I have you as a roleblocker instead of just mafia? I didn't. I did say mafia know whether there's a roleblocker in the setup and would be thinking about the setup being jailkeeper/roleblocker/bulletproof if there is, after tojam's claim really early into the day. I did not once say you were the roleblocker. Thanks for claiming, though.

Don't be fooled by this. This is not town.

Haha, I'm not wriggling. Note for yourself that you were blinded by what you see as a sure read and interpret everything through that lens. I suppose this would suggest emotional involvement in the game clouding your judgement? I just hope that you'll start paying a little more attention to Titus in the future because you seem to hand out townreads too readily to standard play and scumreads to non-standard play.

Thanks, first IC game. I still think you're mafia though, and I'm not claiming no matter how much it looks like you want to fish me <3

I was trying to take the heat for you, actually. Slim chance that an IC wouldn't be N1'd but I was willing to give it a shot. I feel badly for my post leading to the derail of EL's wagon because it certainly doesn't help Town and I'm letting Titus down, but I didn't realize that the matrix went horizontal as well as vertical. :P

Please lynch GL before EL?

Why didn't you share this with the rest of us? If you're actually Town and believe yourself to be in your deathbed, that is.

And why didn't you express support for a Titus lynch when that possibility came up? Your claims that there wasn't enough time for a flashwagon were clearly not based on any real belief.

Her scumtell can also be her "busy in RL" tell.

I wouldn't support her D1 lynch when I know she has in fact been busy IRL the past while. Which is why I asked her that question specifically and I believe she understood why I was asking.

I'm so sorry for disappearing, I had several papers to write and other stuff came up.
I'm kind of weirded out by how dramatically the votes have changed in so little time. I fully expected to come back to see myself lynched. Is this a common thing or is this particular to the game?

I tried reading through the responses, but I really don't feel completely certain that nancy is scum. Something just keeps telling me that she might be town. I'll VOTE: nancy but only because I'm not the one hammering. I have to go to bed at this point, I have a splitting headache so consider me done posting for the day.

It's not very common, but Town thought they caught a scumslip, which aren't very common either.

I don't know why I answered that when I'm a newb. From what I've read in games and theory, it isn't common. :P
