I think that I have made it pretty godamn obvious that I am town!

How am I supposed to know who to Protect/Block when we are going in blind?
I sorry Adam but your story still doesn't add up for me.

[Adam]

At the end of the day, you didn't really hurt anything, b/c we got Crumb's info via card flip, but it's just weird that you'd block one of the two claimed viewers when half the point of not lynching someone yesterday was getting an extra round of views first.

It makes me suspicious in much the same way I was suspicious of bey when he blocked the cop last game. Even if you have a plausible reason for having done so, it's always going to be equally plausible that you just don't want that person getting a view.

Like I said. I still didn't trust you.

But I am inclined to trust JA and ES a little less.

I was thinking that if you were scum then you might be the one to take the action on bey come nightfall. If no kill were to happen then my suspicion would be right.

I was attempting to stop a nightkill.

Plus you would have been gunning for me at the gate because the downside of my ability is that if I block a decepticon then they know I did it and get all my info.
You could still be decepticon for that matter...just not last night's shooter.

Your other option was to block the person that the governor asked to protect him?

I could see a possible second "protector" role with the third faction involved at the start but I still find it to be a stretch.

thats true, but I felt that if I asked for his protection, I would have to be alive today or else he dies.

Its similar to what megatron did last game with his fake doctor claim ensuring that I would use my power for good.

[Contrapposto]

The only thing that will make me feel solid about my decision is if bey comes in and claims to have shot crumb (why on earth he would do that is beyond me) so we're essentially in the same boat.

That is funny, okay numbers people.

7 left 2 scum. 4 to lynch, its not lynch or lose but lets be careful before throwing a second vote on someone.

why view crumb adam?

and anyone remember that flash grenade from yesterday?

First of all...very sorry about the absolute rudeness everyone(I got hot headed - this will not win a game).

But I did mention, ES, that JA was my other option. It was not an easy choice to make as we still haven't cracked the "bolt of energy" thing that Adam claims to have seen AND JA is essentially claiming a similar role. Frankly, I felt they were both scum...I just had to pick the rigt one to block.
I failed.

[Adam]

I viewed Crumb because, if he could still adopt cult leader powers if he wanted, he could pretty much fuck us at the last minute and win on his own by recruiting someone we had already cleared while our numbers were low.

did YOU see the flash grenade ES? No. Only Adam who is still somewhat suspect, imo. Why is this such a stretch?

[Adam]

Re: the grenade, my best guess is still that liv tossed it at me.

[Ensign Steve]

I have written off the bolt of energy as flavor text on slim's attempt to kill liv.

I didn't see anything. Why are you talking to me about a grenade?

we have an extra day with better percentages for getting scum on our two lynches.

not taking into account that it also cleared me which makes it even better.

the other way. 25 percent chance at 8 with 2 on first day of lynch. then at 6-2 a 33 percent chance.

this way 7-2 about a 29 percent chance and then tomorrow a 40 percent chance. plus extra night views. when you factor in that I am cleared now.

day one

your way 25 percent chance, at 8-2
my way 33 percent chance at 7-2 cuz I am cleared.

day 2

your way a 33 percent chance at 6-2
my way 50 percent chance at 5-2 cuz I am cleared.


Yeah, I am the retarded one.

If you are innocent then that would be my specculation as well

adam claimed a flash grenade for the no view he reported yesterday.

today he reported that he viewed crumb.

why didn't he view ja who should have been out protecting me?

[Ensign Steve]

What does that have to do with me?

[Ensign Steve]

I don't even have veiwing powers. I have one move and it kills me to use it. I might as well be a townie.

[Ensign Steve]

Vanilla, I mean.

on the plus side adam reported no moves and you did block him.

I think he was trying to say that adam isn't clear because he could be lying.

[Adam]

What did you say you did on Nights 1 and 2, Contra?

[beyelzu]

Im glad that I already did my homework.

I'm pretty sure he thought your post where you ask me about the grenade was ES.
