WW #41. New Horizons.

[Bacchus]

Frankly it never even crossed my mind to use the N0 action, why waste the ability on a D1 lynch, when nobody knows anything?

Interesting stuff by Lewwyn. I would never have picked up on that, Glum sort of overwhelms me with his torrent of thought. As presented it's full of inconsistency.

I'm not voting as so far I've seen nothing to change my vote. Maybe Rowain will show and change that.

Lewwyn do you think your case against Gazglum still holds if I'm town ? From my perspective it's pretty weak.

[Lewwyn]

Good posts, Lewwyn. My only concern is that that it's somewhat convenient to claim a sensor result that just confirms what everybody was assuming, anyway. Why not use repositioning and save the sensor for a more interesting lynch?

It would have been convenient no matter who was the sensor. I didn't see your post at night before I sent in my order about sensor. And Gazglum only brought it up again during the day while I was asleep. (Funny how he was basically so sure a sensor read would be 1 scum.) I did consider repositioning, and I will likely do that tonight, but I ultimately decided against it because I felt I wasn't going to be nightkilled as part of the lynch crew and I thought I was supicious enough after the end of Day 1 that someone else would be a higher target. As for waiting for a more interesting lynch... weren't we trying to have even voters at the end of Day 1 so that a sensor read would be interesting already?

The fact is I used the sensor ability and I got the result I recieved and I can't help that its convenient or what people expected. I knew that it would seem convenient when I posted it, but I didn't really have a choice if I didn't want to lie.

Lewwyn do you think your case against Gazglum still holds if I'm town ? From my perspective it's pretty weak.

Actually yes. Because while I'm intially looking at Gaz for suspicions related to you and voting at the end of Day 1, the biggest scum tell is the way he's setting up his reads and how it seems as though he's discounted some arbitrarily. Additionally I have issues with this post at night:

Guys, I've just worked out how to break the game.

We're on a spaceship yeah? Ok, bear with me here, we control the lighting levels!

Let's just not turn them off next time, stop this whole 'night' thing from happening.

Feels try hard, and very much, "hey look I'm a villager". It reads like scum to me.

If you're asking me why I'm voting for you and not for him, the day is young and not many people have input on my observations.

[AdrienIer]

I have no problem with you voting for me as one of us BRick voters is scum. I think it's you or novice.

[Gazglum]

I do not understand why sudden;y Gazglum owes Rowain an apology? Suddenly? There was a better case on Adrien so Rowai voting there was good? So now Rowain isn't scummy anymore?

Also why not go after Adrien if you now think he had a better case on him? But no. New day, let's go after Zak instead.

Yeah I'm reading gazglum really scummy now.

I moved off Rowain today for two reasons. First, I thought Brick was a bad lynch. Bacchus made a case for that at the time which I agreed with. Rowain also agreed and moved onto Adrien. That's why I said at the time perhaps I had misjudged him. I thought the Brick voters, as a whole, looked a lot scummier than the Adrien voters.

Second, (barring unlikely scum gambit by Serdoa+Adrien) ROwain's third party role has been confirmed. That cancels my more paranoid suspicions about crazy scum gambits.

Adrien is still a potential suspect for me. His decision not to scan one of the lynch-voters was not thought through, and its convenient that he managed to use the most powerful ability in the game to get little useful information. I also agree with Lewwyn that Adrien's '10 bucks scum did it' was a little cute.

But on the other hand, in annoucning he had Scanned, Adrien opened himself up to being caught in 2 ways. Scan is a very powerful ability. We may have 2 copies of it, we won't have 3. And if 2 other plays also claim it, Adrien gets caught out. I guess its possible Jabbz could have given doctor/scanner to a scum just to throw us off, but I think this not super likely.

Adrien also volunteered his ability quickly, in a way that opened him up to being tracked and caught out if he's lying. So if he is scum he either used another ability on Serdoa or he took an unneeded risk. So Adrien is not my top suspect today either.

Zak, on the other hand, stayed silent until all possible trackers but Rowain had spoken. Serdoa, Adrien, Lewwyn and me announced other events last night, and Bacchus and NOvice have previously roleclaimed and don't have tracking.

Someone blocked me, and I think Zak is the most likely candidate.

[Gazglum]

By the way, I could have been code blocked also.

I was told that my console worked normally but nothing happened when I iniatied my action. That made me assume I was in lockdown (actions cannot go out of the pod), but code blockign might also fit.

Zak, were you told anything that makes you confident of code blocking over lockdown?

[Rowain]

Rowain, what is your victory condition, and did you block Gazglum?

I don't have any blocking/jailing or lockdowning powers

[Rowain]

With the above I also mean I had none of them at game-start nor at any time between then and now

[Rowain]

I do like Bacchus post about Serdoa and I do like Lewwyns post about Gazglum/Adrien.

Since those 2 were also the ones who constantly brought me into play making Day 1 not so much about scum-hunting but about Rowain-hunting.

Serdoa redirecting to me is also logical for scum if he fears a scan, a jailing, or the aditional killing power Serdoa always talked about.
