Board 8 > English Literature Mafia Topic 23: Foreshadowing Pays Off

(+) Yeah! (+)

In fact honestly

I think Sheep > puns > Ulti > Sbell actually makes more sense now. I was a bit too gung ho on puns. You look at the evidence, red's passive defense and the procession of the early suspicions on Hb, and Tom's kill draw in particular.

So I mean, we'll probably win either way. But Survivor, if you exist, you definitely wanna lynch Sheep today.
---

It is so unsettling that Lopen just said I'm most likely scum then swapped to saying sheep is most likely scum right after I said I want to lynch sheep. >_>

You know what post doesn't make sense? You using "Soul Mafia" to justify voting me. Just vote Sheep and put the feeling out of your head that you're going to get some massive ego boost by "catching me" as scum cause I'm not scum.
---

I mean if there is a survivor they flat out won the game at this point unless they mislynch and then get shot. But if this is the case I'm sure scum has reasoned out who it is by now.

I'm not sure scum would risk playing around the survivor unless they were absolutely sure there was one. I think the survivor risk of getting shot would outweigh anything and they should actually try to scumhunt.
---

I mean, I'm a survivor in terms of this game. But I'm no survivor.
---

Ok puns. I'm down.

I'm fairly sure SBell can only possibly be solo scum due to the lack of quick hammers with earlier votes,

Not true. Every vote either was made by or was placed on lopen, therefore nobody can be confirmed as "must be solo if scum" because nobody can logically be ruled out from being scum with Lopen

True, but we've already established that any team of scum has Lopen on it
---

I never said sheep was cleared because he was a "flavor trap." I said if he was that would make a 1 scum setup more balanced, but intuition is that sheep could just as well be a hint at the godfather if godfather is careless and claims his real flavor

My entire argument for puns today was I found his vote post for Cam to be absurdly scummy as I could not follow the logic (and still can't) and he's been coasting on limited activity ala disneyland red

Some combination of Sheep idling out and puns cooling down and actually trying to build a case on sheep, and looking into who Tom drew the kill on (puns pulling that chris post was a catalyst as I recalled Tom saying Chris thought me and Cam were good to lead the town when I was trying to find hints last night), made me doubt my read. Enough that I said just martyring to try and lynch puns might be a mistake. That's really it.
---

And by sheep being a hint at godfather I meant Cam's voldemort flip
---

100% 1 scum
0% 2 scum
---

Okay maybe like 1% 2 scum because double flavor godfather COULD exist. I GUESS
---

SBell, thoughts?

(This is puns dumb lecture on role distributions getting to me, really. WIT DA SAMPLE SIZE OF ONE YA CAN'T ASSUME NUTTIN)
---

I feel that it is likely the fate of town to lose the game if sheep is town yes. Because you're obstinate about me being scum to the point where I'm dead tomorrow stone cold lock. Unless you're the last scum, I guess. Then maybe me and puns will figure it out and kill you. Though I imagine puns if town is shot tonight.
---

If sheep is town and its only one scum then you lynch Lopen.

Bottom line.
---

I won't be here for it and if you don't want to lynch Lopen now then you'll have to do it later

Lopen has pretty much said he wants a final 3 of me, you, and him.

No I don't WANT that cause town autoloses that. But I mean if it's you puns sheep tomorrow instead our odds of losing can't possibly be worse cause I don't see sheep not being lynched there either and I think maybe I can reason with one of you to lynch someone else, maybe?

I mean I'm kinda okay with whatever, a bit checked out right now. I think if puns is town we likely win and if he's scum we likely lose. I think puns being scum is too high probability for me to feel safe but not low enough for me to feel dread.

Moreover if puns is scum at least I can say I was the one guy to not call him obvtown. That's worth something.

This is why we lynch Lopen today because it guarantees we at least get a final 3. If you lynch me we basically straight up lose if Lopen is town.

Oh hi sheep

How ya figure?

Though the fact I'm willing to listen to you on this whole Sheep thing should prove whatever the opposite of obstinence is.

Are you listening? I wasn't sure you were.
---

I mean I'd really like to lynch Lopen.

I'd feel better if puns was on board.

You get lynched tomorrow, pretty much automatically, easy loss. If it's Puns you won't sway SBell, and same goes for if it's SBell. Or if scum leave Ulti alive for whatever reason.

Okay but how does lynching me today solve that problem

You're doing the same thing puns did with Cam I thought was dumb
---

My full thoughts is lynch Sheep then if he's town, lynch SBell honestly

If he's scum and game doesn't end, it's more likely Lopen I guess

Because of Ulti/Lopen/SBell he's got the least town credit

I am SOLVING

Puns feels my solving energy passed from Cam, even if it was initially misdirected (maybe)
---

I would probably back SBell as scum if there is a solo scum remaining. Then again I feel like I would back anyone bar Ulti there.

I spent like 5 minutes typing out an argument before realising that yes, it kinda is dumb (although I think I could make a case since I might actually have time the next day!)
---

What was the argument btw

I won't judge it for being dumb. Give me the gist
---

The remaining scum have to have at least one godfather of sorts. If there's a solo scum, I'd expect something else in addition to godfather because otherwise scum are grossly underpowered. Which is why we should probably lynch Lopen. And Voldemort as Town Vanilla was already weird flavour. I've tried to not go on that too much thus far.
UltimaterializerX posted...

Because of general play or do you think he's a crazy godfather role meant to balance out town's power?

His flavor as the godfather to end all godfathers would be so weird.

---

Also I know this might seem dumb but my day 1 town list was ulti, cam, ben, lopen, tom

I suspect that was not the argument and some other thought since it read like a non-sequitur
---

Wow, this would be so sad if we lose my lynching me.

Yes that was a non-sequitur.

The argument was that it clears me/puns puns/SBell me/SBell from being scum teammates together, and then I realised that was really, really, really fucking stupid because it's final three. I told you it was dumb. I'm coming off a soul-crushing 12 hour minimum wage customer service shift and it's been practically a day since I slept so please don't think I'm an actual troglodyte
---

I just wanted to hear what you were spending 5 minutes on. In case you weren't

You know, for solving.
