Otherwise it was essentially perfect.

They should always be interrogated. They're a great way to put pressure on a potential scum's weak point

lmao

That entire game was comedy gold. Also aether getting off because of her near lynch emotional performance and then flipping wolf later.

can't wait to play with sleepy again tbh

linki Matt: I don't think any of us believed it, J least of all. Deep down we all knew

87 will remain one of my favourite games.

Oh, did I win that one? Why yes, I did.

When I took him to the river, dropped him in the water, no one died that night. So I was like :U But, no surprise, I'm shit at being townie. I was wrong about er'body.

Conversely, don't let that stop you from nominating me for Best Scum for the Mola Mola game. Because I was an awesome townie then.

Meta log updated.

Lynch straw when he looks town.

Not sure what I'm plaguing next but I'll almost definitely be in RYM #91, whenever that is.

MP was talking about some less role-heavy games with smaller player sizes which sounds right up my alley, so I'll try one of those out too!

linki J: townie till I die ;p

Oh yeah, now that this is over can someone tell me

What's Talking Heads? A TV show or something?

Oh yeah what was up with your read on MM Straw?

Wait.

Wait.

...

Are you telling me Wilgy and J weren't lovers?!

It's not a winner's banner, but now you can show off to everyone that you were THE Psycho Killer.

...

I'll wear it with pride. thanks a ton, guys, really!

Now to rebuild myself after being emotionally destroyed. Now I know how a real serial killer feels.

MASSIVE, Massive thanks to MP+sloonei for making this all possible and for responding to my millions of PMs.

Are you guys coming to the MAFFIES?!?!?

jesus

I was laffin when you were complaining about the SK being OP without knowing this

My ridiculous role that I somehow lost with:

-Absorb powers used against me; otherwise unaffected by ALL NIGHT ACTIONS. EVEN KILLS.
-Unlynchable when forum ratio is even on day phase
-Two kills when forum ratio is even at night
-Real live wire

RETRACT ALL YOUR PREVIOUS COMPLIMENTS.

Rico, dude, fantastic game. I hope to play with you again but you've set yourself a really fantastic standard... ;p

WELL DONE TOWN!!!

JJJ, you managing to sway town on you without even defending yourself but with sheer fucking EFFORT was my highlight. WELL. PLAYED. GETTING. VOTES. AT. MAFFIES.

In which case I'm sorry for killing you let's hope we're town together soon!

I can't be mad at you for making the decision you've made, I appreciate it. But either you're taking us all on the wildest ride of all time or your month has been wasted.

So that no suspicion of you being the sk/being lynched for being the sk falls on you

THERE'S TIME.

Change your vote, J. Someone change your goddamn vote

Still doing my best at the end of a long day phase where it's been consistently anti-me. I want town to win. Bottom line.

@Rico, I don't know exactly how it'll work, but you can't exactly be seen NOT trying to push the SK lynch, so why not make it as easy as possible and easy-button so that it doesn't fall on you?

It's not been here when I've not been here, sure. But it's been here. If you think Rico's efforts today are indicative of a town spark, it's costing you the game. I've told you what rico's efforts surmount to. Look at his 'efforts' end of the bullzeye lynch day. Town spark? Sure. Meanwhile I bust my ass day 1 risking everything. YES I'M MAD.

Feel my fear
I have no rage, just FEAR

And yeah, my fear is that Rico wins tomorrow so he can just pin me as sk

I know they're bad j, and I'd love to go dragon mode. Trust me. But I need to find the sk specifically, and as much as I'd love there to be in haven't been able to find something that makes me sure enough that one of them is 100% SK. I still HAVE to play this day like any other or we'll lose by not lynching sk

And and I'm voting appropriately rico

I have nothing substantial. I haven't come up with a theory that explains no, I haven't found any damming gem on Rico or Russ. As ever, all I have is my reads.

I think Rico is the SK. Compare his responses to me to J's. J looks like someone who has an opinion on the SK and is in touch with the evidence, but still attempts to understand and give a chance to that person he suspects because he's not trying to force the SK label onto anyone; rather, he's doing the opposite: looking for who the SK is. I don't blame him for thinking it's me at this point. But Rico's responses to me today don't look like he's even trying to tell whether I'm SK or scum, as he's claiming is the only possible alignments for me. Reading his responses you'd forget there was another player in his book that could be the SK. Nothing strikes me here as indicative of a viewpoint that's *looking for the sk*, it feels he's more interested in just dismissing me as if he knows I'm the sk. He's tunneling. He's not looking for the sk because he is the sk, he's just projecting the label as hard as he can onto me. That, plus the stuff I mentioned about his game previously. (Also his teliance and heavy use of neutral detail.)

I'll be on my laptop again soon to actually reference my thoughts.

I'm not the sk, and by my thinking a mislynch loses town the game

Oh, good joke

Why?

Swell

I thought it was worth like one billion

Or is that negative votes on him? ?

MM, dude, if you're reading this you need to find a way to come back a tad before the deadline, even on a phone or something.

Dinner's in the oven. Pudding in the fridge.

Metalmarsh89 wrote:I'll be gone until after the deadline.

Town loses. MM's votes are worth too many to counter, right?

WAIT IT'S FUCKING OBVIOUS

IF I WAS SK WHY WOULDN'T I JUST NO KILL LAST NIGHT TO MAKE MYSELF LOOK BETTER

THAT'S SOME RISKY FUCKING SHIT FOR A DOUBLE BLUFF

Okay seriously going now but chew on that

As Jay pointed out, he still kills nightly.

Clearly not.

linki J: I'm going to the station to pick up my girlfriend, then we're having dinner. That should all be done in about an hour and a bit. I'll post what I've come up with on the two Rs.

I mean, he might have been doing nothing, but that seems unlikely unless I do find some kind of pattern like I was talking about earlier.

What else was the SK doing on night 5? Probably not missing his PM.

I'm also reminded of Rico being SUPER defensive AND wifommy on that day where I voted for him early on, and I'd expect the SK to be even more defensive than mafia. Also, his frustration of putting scum as a green skittle (his defence of which is the subject of said wifom) as the SK makes perfect sense. My gut is telling me Rico SK at this stage.

I don't know. It's certainly be a point in his favour, but I do still believe that Russ lying low smells more like SK to me generally. I'm not done researching yet, but I'll have an answer in time to give it some decent discussion before the deadline.
