So here’s my take: I think scum’s strategy was to push for my lynch this DP, but they’ve switched and now want to buddy.
The question is if Whiteflame was the cause for their switch, or a preemptive call Whiteflame decided to make in the moment. Ultimately, given what Pie said at the very start, I get the sense he’d be giving the green light to go for me, so why wouldn’t Whiteflame be taking it? I feel like he’d at least do more to keep his options open, no? He seems pretty set on the idea that I am town.

Ok. My tired ass will read this tomorrow and figure it out.
I think this is definitely a sign I need to call it quits for the night. Like actually for real this time.

Hm, we’re using two different wikis here but they say the same thing, MS just words it differently than MU. It would mean seeing my role, despite being passive, as an action that can be bus driven despite that I have no targets that could get target swapped.
I guess I passively target myself , so maybe people who target me become targets?

Ok so I checked the wiki and I don’t think that’s how bus driver works. I guess it’s possible that Cerulean has a weird interaction idea tho
I say this because I had a thought:
If miller moves with the scum team, I could explain why Wylted showed on my results. It would implicate Austin heavily.
One thing I don’t like about Austin is how he felt the need to explain the non-consecutive in his role claim

Faking a visit falls into the same pitfalls of assumptions that Lunatic’s bus driver theory does

None of Austin’s descriptions of anticlaim show a way I could have been interfered with. If there’s a way Austin wouldn’t have accounted for, such as faking a visit, that would explain things. I don’t get a bus drive or redirect tho.

Ok I reread Austin’s DP1 post about anticlaim. If anti claim interfered with my results it would indicate that scum punished Wylted’s claim by putting him on my radar somehow

Lunatic not knowing anything about anticlaim is crazy.
Townslip? Unless there’s no anticlaim in the game at all.

Kinda glad I can’t resist checking in multiple times before going to bed.
Anticlaim is that thing Austin talked about early DP1 and there’s a good chance it’s in this game… I still don’t fully understand what could or couldn’t be given to scum team through anticlaim.
As for why this matters, yeah, I forgot about your pov for a sec

Last thought: my role is pretty weak for an investigative role. I can see it being paired with a stronger one like Whiteflame.
Thing is, I don’t know if that excludes Casey’s role from being in the setup, nor do I think Casey + me excludes whiteflame.
Casey’s is strong because of the info it delivers but also weak because she didn’t know what it was and has low odds of choosing it on any given night.

I guess I can’t expect people to be 100% sure I’m telling the truth. Ok I get it now
I still think my results were more likely a result of anticlaim than some bus driver. We’ll see when I go check the wiki

Wait, does it even matter how my results were screwed up?

I need to go look at the MU wiki again to see if I can figure how exactly all these damn roles work…

I just noticed I didn’t finish that last post.
Like I get what you’re saying: what happened to scum, displayed as happening to Wylted, including being seen by me.
But I’m not sure if it works that way with a passive role. I didn’t actively target Wylted. So Wylted being swapped with scum may not mean much. I also don’t know how their results are given… for example, your theory requires me to believe they immediately knew what I was. That requires them to have fast results on a day role cop, or a night role cop that they get results from before the have to lock in other night actions of theirs. Or they made an incredible read… which, I don’t know how.
What’s stopping my results from being screwed on some anticlaim bullshit, instead of your theory?

That’s a new take on bus driver theory. Interesting. I’m not sure if that works?
Like I get what you’re saying: What would have happened to scum, happened to Wylted.

What do you mean when you say “a more powerful version of strengthener?”
Created:

@AustinL0926
Given that Mharman claimed his ability is passive, I don't think it would have been affected. It also might imply the existence of a JOAT/redirector/roleblocker in the game.
Ooooh that’s a good point

@whiteflame
Austin being implicated would require a mistake on his part where he still claimed strengthener after changing up his plan tho
Created:
Posted in:
Hm. That would be done to implicate me in the same posts Austin said he still thinks I’m town.
So the only possible way Austin could be implicated here is if he had that claim ready to go to accuse me but switched up his thoughts on me the second he saw Whiteflame said he townread me behaviorally and would sooner believe there was some interference.

@whiteflame
Wait. Last DP Wylted was saying my results could not have been interfered with, therefore I am scum. Strengthener would play off that as a fake claim.
You’re onto something here, although some anticlaim ability may bypass strengthener. I know retarded miller handling would.
Created:

@whiteflame
I need to look up how strengthener works… I thought it only prevented roleblocks and redirects…
So, that means whatever Casey’s role did is (probably?) off the table for an explanation.
It’s either some anticlaim thing or Cerulean handles miller in an extremely retarded way

My logic here is that I might just be one of the easiest mislynches possible for a scum team at this point.

Fair enough. I would think you’d jump on me harder if you’re scum.
Can’t grant anyone else that luxury now that I’ve said it tho.

@whiteflame
it's just odd that they would somehow be able to manipulate how you see people who visit you. I haven't seen that role used before, but it's certainly not impossible.
I guess the last possibility is that Cerulean goes about miller in an extremely retarded way

I wish you had given the info about who visited you before Austin stated that he had, since that would have at least confirmed that you knew it without prior validation,
I should have; you’re right.

Lunatic was last online 6 hours ago.
Austin 1 hour ago.
Whiteflame, you’re on now.
I can see why a townie (or even someone spectating the game) would like Pie’s post. However, I would love it if that townie, if that’s who it was, said something.
Anything to say? I can answer your questions. Or at least, I can try.

I can explain myself no further. If we lose this here (we probably will) you can expect a rant from me about the setup in the endgame thread.
I get the sense this is hella scumsided

Hell, if Wylted SOP claimed I would have townread him behaviorally and would’ve been more open to ideas that my results were invalid.
