Austin, I think I’ll use tomorrow to take of the loose ends in this DP.

Mikal, I think the objective funniest scum team is Wylted, Moozer, and Austin.

I might ask a bunch of people a round of questions tomorrow, but honestly…

I’m just gonna enjoy tonight.

I’m sure whatever details need to be fully fleshed out of what is we’re doing, it can be done tomorrow.

As a reminder, it's a gladiator where thread locks, me and the person I challenge have to answer a survey question, and whoever gets an answer closer to what the majority of the other people pick wins the match and the other gets lynched.
Sounds like a role that easily get scum out of a lynch in a pinch, but also seems busted in a 3v8. This variation seems to be one that disincentivizes testing it. All of this makes me think it could be a fake claim.

Nonetheless, Mikal, you have been doing a lot things that are hard to fake as scum, plenty of small details you’ve looked at. Very good signs of towniness. I’ll guess I’ll let you cook.

Nonetheless, Moozer and Austin, your interrogation will be later this DP. I will use the time we have this DP. I’ll need to revisit my thoughts on Banana too, but I still think she’s town behaviorally.

The fact that all three of you don’t want to go for it makes me wonder if I’m correct in calling out the potential plan of Austin’s. I guess it’s your job to tell me why that can’t be the case.

If I do decide to trust yall on this in the end, I’m at least going to interrogate Austin and Moozer a bit more this DP.

It that rests on assumptions on what you think is a good PoE and allows for some extra fuckery to happen later. I think we just take what we have here.

I probably shouldn't have said how many answers were submitted in hindsight, people are willing to make whatever they want out of it, but its possible I messed up on that
Ok I found it. I missed it the first time.

That being said, to me it sounds like he’s just casting doubt ‘cause he doesn’t want his game to be cheesed off it.  

Sorry Lunatic. I know you don’t want us thinking about this, but I feel like we kinda have to here.

I mentioned above it could also mean you are both town confirmed. But there was a pretty decent mistake there or Luna would not Jump in. He doesn’t do that normally. 
True. Idk, you know Lunatic better than I do, does him telling us not to read into mean that it's more likely that we caught scum, or that we're about to incorrectly lynch within two townies?
What was the context of this? I can’t find it.

Honestly, given how similar Wylted’s fake claim was to his actual character, I don’t think he used the fake character claim. I think he just looked for something similar to his own show.

I had an earlier theory that the theme split is dating game shows vs. all else btw. It wouldn’t make sense for a fake claim to be aligned with scum’s side of the theme split.

Granted, my theory might just be wrong because maybe Wylted didn’t make the mistake of having his fake claim be within the theme split, but it’s worth noting.

Also, sorry for raging at you yesterday.

I havent fully thought every path out just yet, but I think if there’s a case to be had on Whiteflame, it’s not gonna be in this discussion.

And going for a Whiteflame lynch over Moozer or Austin feels like a “dog trying to grab the bone in the reflection moment”

We have guaranteed scum among those two and I think the “better poe” we get for lynching Whiteflame could carry some assumptions that might not be true.

Occam’s razor says we just lynch within today’s CC.

@whiteflame
This would legitimately be the dumbest unforced error I've ever committed, and it wouldn't even be close.

But in all seriousness, that was an error that happened under fast and unexpected pressure, so I can buy the idea that you’ve had more time to not make that kind of mistake this game.

Yknow, the best hints on your affiliation are probably found outside of this whole discussion. Starting to think that.

Genuinely wondering if this is town v town and we’re dealing with Austin and Earth, maybe Austin and someone else.

I haven’t even thought about scum teams containing Banana it this point.

But if you ask me, Austin should be our lynch. I just townread Moozer a tad bit more. It sounds crazy given some of the weird things Moozer has said (his response to me about my “baiting him to reveal he’s talking on discord,” the Freudian slip Pie alleged from last DP) but Moozer says weird stuff like that all the time, furthermore, he had the chance to back out of the CC but didn’t.

Still really looks like Austin was setting something up, and I don’t fully buy it comes from a town perspective.

Well for starters he’s not arguing that Wylted used a fake claim that was given. He’s arguing Wylted didn’t use either fake claim. 

It think you see that now.

Honestly that’s only one I can think of. A swear I saw a few more misunderstandings of yours but I don’t see or recall them now. Whatever I guess.

I will say that good chunk of your defense makes sense.

So, Whiteflame took his actual role, changed it up a bit, and added the name “wheel spinner” to it in order to make it match the fake character claim?

I can buy that, and I can also buy that Wylted use the fake claim

But this is largely speculative. Why not lynch between Moozer and Austin, the CC we already have?

Both of them had the chance, but for Austin, it already looks like he was faking the CC bait, so I wouldn’t be shocked if he stuck to his guns there when offered a chance out of it.

So I think the argument can only be used in Moozer’s favor.

If Whiteflame is scum it’s hard to imagine Austin as the teammate. No chance he would sac himself for someone also on the chopping block. If it’s Whiteflame, it’s probably that Moozer made a mistake. 

Just doesn’t feel likely through. Austin has the setup, and Moozer had the chance to back out of the CC and save himself but didn’t.

Interesting. I wasn’t thinking of wheel spinner like a JOAT. He does get more powerful with more roles as it goes on.

Although it would be different given he needs to meet a condition.

So, I guess the argument is that this has to be Lunatic’s fake role claim

Ok, and that’s why you’re asking if the fake claims are together or separate.

Now that I think about it, I do wonder if a teammate came up with a plan to have Moozer CC Austin to get him lynched, but I gotta think: Austin looked like he would be setting up for it, and any teammate of Moozer’s  would know he’d probably get lynched without getting Austin mislynched first if he did that

Ok fine I guess that’s hammer if Moozer is lying but if not, no more.

At the very least I want to get confirmation or denial from Lunatic on 490

Nobody else vote Moozer. 

Savant, don’t tell anyone else to vote Moozer.

Another thing I’m curious is if post 490 was a mistake… if my vote is being commandeered it throws the ideas I just had out the window

So, why do I have to be one of the people on Moozer again? Convenience, or some mechanical reason?

I guess we can still test him, but here’s a thought: Moozer had a chance to back out of the CC when I asked him to check his chat logs. He didn’t.

Thing is, if Moozer is scum, he made a mistake… but if it’s Austin, he has a plan. I’m a little bit sus of the whole “I’m baiting scum into CCing” thing only for someone just to happen to fall for it. Genuinely wonder if he planned to use himself as a sacrificial piece.

Ex: 
7v2 - Moozer gets mislynched
5v2- Austin gets lynched
4v1- Earth just needs to survive this one DP, looks townier off of Moozer cop
2v1- Earth wins with politician vote

Alternatively, someone other than Earth could try to get Earth mislynched DP4 or 5 on the grounds he’s survived that long (or other stuff), and they also only need to surivive one DP. It’d have to be someone largely townread, so it can’t be Whiteflame. I’d say Savant or Mikal. Mikal is especially interesting because town investigatives could mess such a plan up, and he really seems to want the item… don’t understand the sudden desire to lynch Whiteflame now, despite the CC.

Like I said. Still down to test Moozer’s role, but I kinda wanna vote Austin.
