We've caught one regular scum and one lost partner. We have two neutrals that are designed to actively hunt a particles scum, putting them roughly town aligned. Seeing 5+1 scum doesn't seem completely unreasonable, especially if their powers are on the weaker side or come with some drawback.
Then again, I'm beginning to suspect between time and Faddy there is a town. Leaning Time, but then he could be scum with Fat4all designed to be his counter. (After all a 4-town thunder dome is a lot less effective if Fat4all hadn't used the override already.)
I can't do the "search a users posts" thing on mobile very easily; view top posters just takes me to a user's profile.
Mostly I'm more concerned with dealing with the situation directly before me: Flame_AC. Removing a scum blocker gives Sorian a shot back. Sure, he could use it against town, but I would think he would realize any double night kill would get him lynched. I can't be positive since I'm not fran, but Sorian could still constitute a "threat to town", which we would have to remove to win.
Keep in mnd that it is possible for Sorian to win with either town or scum at this point, but as far as we know beyond lynching him we are out of ways to kill him outright. Scum isnt.
If we remove the roleblocker scum has to decide how much they want to risk Sorian killing one of their team. He's good, we all know that. Can they risk it? As long as their role blocker is alive, yes.
vote: Flame_AC
So make them choose between hitting town and removing a threat.
Wait, we're assuming that *if* Flame is a blocker, and *if* he's been blocking Sorian, if we lynch him Sorian is going to *try* to shoot scum when his win condition clearly depends on lengthening the game as much as possible right now? What?! If he's on a leash, unleashing him is a huge gamble for us, and I'm super against it.
And would you really lynch Sorian after a double town NK when that means removing someone who's neutral instead of scum? Sorian must be feeling super comfortable right now because as I already said today he's scummy dead weight whose opinions we should largely ignore.

Hi. I was asleep so I didn't have the chance to respond until now.
I figured you had watched Sorian, I was hoping you would have the day before cause you would have seen me then as well.
I am Mr. Freeze, and I can use the Freeze command once per night to block a player's actions.
Now for the fun part, my targets:
Night 1: Faddy
Night 2: Faddy
Night 3: Sorian
Night 4: Sorian
Night 5: Sorian
Y'all can go back to day 2 when I first joined the game and you will see that I made my distrust of Faddy pretty clear to everyone. In my first reread through the game during Night 1, I decided to just target the number one target and see if anything happened. Fast forward a day and I still liked Faddy for scum and so I roleblocked them. I know you speculated earlier Faddy that scum was investigating you night 2, I even asked you about it because it was actually me targeting you.
I then reread the game again and I had the worst feeling about Sorian, specifically that he was the Joker, this was of course before it was mentioned in thread or by talked about by Sorian himself. You'll note that early on following Night 3, I was one of the first people to talk about Sorian potentially being Joker. Now you might ask, "you didn't know Joker was anti-town, so why would you block them?". To that I'd say that I did what I thought was the best action and was sure to yield a positive hit because I wanted someone to know I had my ability. Personally I feel like a roleblocker might be the most important role in a role madness game as I can disable someone crazy, like Sorian.
I was originally going to try and block Timeaisis's thunder dome the night he used the ability, but I was afraid my action would not work as it would be unblockable so I just went with Sorian. To put all this simply, I wanted y'all to know my role so that's why I kept offering to claim because I figured scum would for sure want to kill me and maybe I'd get a doctor to protect me or our dear watcher to see me doing something. I really thought for sure that AbsolutBro would have seen me a previous night I was on Sorian, but it backs up his claim that he simply forgot to send the command in.
Lynch me if you want, I'm gonna take satisfaction in blocking Sorian. Also, I even mentioned to fran when I sent the action in that I thought Sorian might have saved their last shot and was waiting for someone (me) to reveal themself, so I guess I was right on that.

This is TERRIBLE reasoning to vote Flame. He can sit on Sorian's face another night to try to limit the damage.
Killing the Batmite is today's best choice. He has a poison shot left, and we don't want to give him another night to use it.
Oh, and if you remember all my older posts and even up to yesterday, I've always thought you were town AB. So I guess my gut is good for something after all, just a little tidbit.
I am baffled by the idea that it is best to lynch me now and let Sorian take another wild shot. The best strategy for them would be to shoot the best town player and try and kill discussion so scum can get it down to 5 players quickly.

Putting weight in their name, eh?
What a novel idea.
What's your name, so I can have a clear comparison?

You are the WORST at subtext. Go read my posts. All the bits. I answered the question with the place I answered the question.

And I'll put some weight in a name that WAS CORROBORATED BY A ROLE NAME COP, whereas you are doing your best to put weight in a name that no one can verify.
I don't get the logic here. We know either weemad OR zipped is lying, and yet we want to put off that flip ANOTHER night?
Why why why why why?
I'll grant that flame is suspect, but we have far more reason to flip weemad today.
I've given it long enough to ruminate. I hadn't voted weemad because I wanted to at least get some checkins and useful info. Now I see where AB lies and what Flame claims to be. Great, good starting point for tomorrow. It doesn't make weemad any less scummy.

Well, that clears flame in my opinion.
So it's back to weemadarthur and myself. Obviously my vote is still unchanging

I believe you and I feel that you are 100% in blocking Sorian. Keeping him "on ice" is the best for town.
weemadarthur
Member
I already did.
In fact, I did quite early on in the day.....five.
AB has already proved he is a watcher/tracker, we don't need more proof from him. Whether he is town or scum is still unknown.
If we went by that plan, couldn't scum easily nk AB and throw us off again?
Yep. My mistake, I suppose that strategy would throw off the idea.
Zippedpinhead
Member
I don't agree with weemadarthur on much but putting AB to the test isn't one of them. He is definately and definitively a watcher and most likely a town one.
weemadarthur
Member
He already confirmed Nudull self targeted on N2. How many more watchings do you need?
I don't know, enough to make everyone/me think you are town.
How about, instead of continuing to play games, you just tell us?

What don't weemadarthur said. Neither of us are denying that we have roles, or that we have abilities and have tried to do good things. I tried to save royal_flush that night but he must have used his second lightning rod shot and since I directly targeted royal_flush he died.
I personally think that weemadarthur must have some sort of role that benefits a self target. Maybe a jack of all trades, maybe we are both doctors and scum keeps getting their poisoned person lynched/Sorian keeps getting blocked and that is why there haven't been more poison deaths.
Either way, confirming AB shouldn't be on the table. I think he is town.
Top scum:
Bronx-man
Lone_prodigy
Weemadarthur (because while we COULD both be doctors of some type I think you are scum)

? I am not a huge batman, or even DC comics, fan. So I am sure there is some subtext I am missing, but perhaps someone more familiar with DC comics can solve?
yeah, I was trying to figure out the same thing

shit nevermind, who was weemadarthur in the last batman game?

It turns out, when I finally got around to reading the wiki, that I'm a sociopath who can't get along with anyone, whether they're on my side or not. I wasn't even role playing.
Try the synonym.

Weemadarthur is claiming hush. Aka a batman look alike. Also a medical doctor

Hugo Strange, but he is dead.

Oh shuttup Faddy.
It's out of character for weemadarthur, who is usually very nice with their conversation and not vulgar.
Synonym for shuttup is hush

how the balls did you figure that out?

that's the only other doctor i can think of related to Batman besides Hugo

I don't believe it, a batman look alike sounds like someone when investigated would show up as BATMAN!
What a great name for you to get in scum chat the perfect cover in case someone found you "oh I'm the doctor my name just SAYS I'm batman"

In the post immediately before yours (it probably posted while you typed). I swear I have read that post four or five times today to try and figure it out.
But the "oh shuttup Faddy" is out of character.

A Bruce Wayne lookalike you mean, Hush doesn't go around dressed as a bat.

Aw, and you're a sweetie too. Sorry I have to kill you and everything, but we just aren't on the same side here.

yeah, I didn't see his "synonym" post because I was manually searching the old batman game. -_-
Zippedpinhead

take it as you will, but it is the only cover you have batman. I know you are scum now
When it comes to the tit-for-tat details, Hush is a pretty perfect character to be made as a doctor in a Batman mafia game. There's only one other notable doctor among Batmans villains, and that's Hugo Strange, who's a psychologist and not a medical doctor. Can't think of a single other villain doctor.
