Pascha Poodle Posted April 30, 2019 Posted April 30, 2019 1 hour ago, Haydn Hippo said: Dammit. I'm so dumb. I ignored the important questions. Why was Braxton killed rather than being the focus of today's continued talk? That is a good question. I don't think you're right though, because he couldn't have shared it privately before the end of the day. Only at night. So it's possible he claimed at night to the wrong person, but why would he when the lynch threat was already over? I think it's more likely we have a vig that took him out (to answer the allegiance question and therefore let us evaluate yesterday's voting). The other possibility I see is that one of the scum teams killed him, precisely to confuse us. I'm discounting that theory though, because if that were the case, someone would have been asking the question louder and earlier to get us all confused. 39 minutes ago, Bennett Bulldog said: But how would he reveal his role since outside communication is prohibited? He could be one of the ones with night talk ability, and talked to someone before the night actions were submitted. But he wouldn't have claimed at night since there would be no reason.
Pierot Parrot Posted April 30, 2019 Posted April 30, 2019 BAWK! 3 hours ago, Haydn Hippo said: I'm glad I seem alright to you. oh, you mean to lynch. Because I called out your shifty hiding messaging or because I voted for you over it? Oh, no, it's because of your "tunnel vision" on Braxton yesterday. Poor Haydn Hippo. you are so misguided (and probably scum): 3 hours ago, Haydn Hippo said: No sign of scum wagoning? How do you know? The only way to know that would be to know who the scum were. But you're town, you told us so, you don't know who the scum are. With seven votes on her, the odds that there are no scum voting for her would have to minuscule. And that's entirely forgetting there are two scum teams, who (I would hope) have not identified each other yet and so can quite happily vote for each other. Unless the teams have figured some way to signal to each other in the day thread to connect up? Surely there's been no evidence of that? I just know and that's all I can say right now. As Bennett point out, indicating that one has the same secret knowledge I do is a sure indicator of townie-ness. But as Ember Elephant has pointed out (and as Peppa Pig said on Day One) the Hellions and Monsters hate each other, so each has an interest in hiding its identity from the other group. 3 hours ago, Haydn Hippo said: one of the scum teams decided to go with the town's almost lynch, knowing he was either town or other scum team (or hypothetical third party), but aiming to use however he flipped as a way to attack those villagers who voted for him. Surely that's not what's happening here? I've said it before and I'll say it again: scum can and do night-kill people when attempting to lynch them fails. 3 hours ago, Haydn Hippo said: If your warbling has any merit it is only this, all of what I've said does not in any way clear, exonerate or defend Myrtle. She has done odd things. Things which will see her lynched. I simply disagree about priorities. I think there are bigger scummier animals out there. It's obvious that your words do not "clear, exonerate or defend Myrtle" and I'm surprised you feel you have to say as much. The hippo doth protest too much, methinks. 1 hour ago, Haydn Hippo said: Braxton is panicking about heading toward lynch. It's especially bad because He's a power role. What can he do? Claim in thread? Too risky he thinks. Who's been speaking up for me? Who hasn't voted for me? That animal shares with his buddies, prompting an unvote just in case others know Braxton is empowered. Later that night. Bam. Killed by scum to neutralise a threat. Braxton trusted the wrong animal. How would a townie come to be in private communication with scum on Day One, and particularly after the point at which private communication is prohibited? Just as Bennett and Pascha have noted, this seems ridiculous. All post hoc rationalization. Also, this theory hinges on knowledge of how night communication works in this village. You think it's plausible that a townie could be in contact with a scum on Day One. I think this is implausible, as such a situation would be manifestly unfair to the town. You are either speculating wildly about the nature of everything in this Forest, or you are speculating about the nature of private communication because you have one kind (the scum kind) and don't know anything about the town kind. It's possible you sincerely think Ember is scum, on which point I disagree, but that is only because you need to get rid of the other scum team to win. I just think you're angry because we've caught your teammate, probably leaving you all alone as a Hellion or a Monster. BAWK!
