I TOLD YOU YOS WAS SCUM. FFFFF---- people. I have been saying it all game. More on this later, but GET THIS.
It's unrelated to Yos, but still ENTIRELY AWESOME...... yep, you guessed it! It's INFODUMP/CLAIMING time!
I, too, am an Enforcer, i.e. a Cop. Just like Andrius and Furcolow.
And to pre-emptively answer your question of why I did not claim before, I had multiple reasons:
1. I wanted to compare my results with those of Andrius (if we happened to cross-investigate, which we did. TWICE. FML)
2. because I wanted to compare my results with my reads in-thread,
3. because I did not feel like I had enough to bring to the table (seeing as I cross-investigated with Andrius twice)
4. I wanted to make myself a smaller target for NK/recruiting so I could be MORE useful, later, as opposed to relatively UNuseful, sooner. Also, it would have split the cult-doc's choices each night with very little , so I figured my best bet was laying low.
This meant contradicting my reads/alignment scans on some people, and in general being a bit duplicitous (yes, scummy on purpose, for those following along at home).... buuuut, in my opinion it was MORE than worth it, in order to give four investigations to cross-reference with the other cop. And before you say it, YES, I know, I have pushed my luck way too far, and there was MORE than enough chance for me to have been killed or recruited so far, but I was gambling on the recruit-or-kill theory, and to me the SMART thing to do would be to recruit as much as possible as fast as possible, and not start killing people right away unless they KNEW you were the opposing scum leader / cult recruiter.
So, all that to say: hopefully you guys can take me at my word; I'm going to reveal my investigations now, in hopes we can pull this off:
Night 0
- I investigated Faraday (undeterminable) - Which is WHY I WANTED HIM DEAD. I thought he was a recruiter. (and yes, total wifom occurred on what would have happened to me if he was a don's son. I ended up believing that he WAS a don's son, and that I would NOT have died. which is why I wanted him lynched ASAP. screw you guys for lynching furcolow, I wanted to lynch Faraday D1
).
Night 1
- I investigated ooba (undeterminable) - same general result as Andrius. Due to Faraday's flip, I was not so sure, but I received DIFFERENT FLAVOR than I did with Faraday so I am still not sure. All my WIFOM about ooba/singersigner STILL HOLDS TRUE. It was completely honest. I think ooba still has a chance of being a recruiter!
Night 2
- I investigated Lord Gurgi (TOWN) - this time exactly the same as Andrius. Which leads me to believe he'd be the obv-recruit choice for last night, because the scum factions are trying to get town-cred among their numbers. So this result now means nothing either way, except to say that at least Andrius was not lying, and therefore Andrius (and by extension, Robocopter) are probably town.
Night 3
- I investigated Chronopie (*drumrollllllll* - TOWN. Holy good gravy, that was unexpected. =0 ...sorry for doubting you, Chrono).
Sooooo.
Andrius is likely town
based on his results and his actions thus far,
Robocopter is likely town
(unless he and Andrius are pulling a master gambit which involves Andrius as scum telling the truth about all of his investigations, even as the only claimed cop... which seems REALLY, REALLY unlikely, lol), and
Chronopie is 100% town
(at this point).
So I have known for a while now that Andy is probtown, but I was trying to spin the WIFOM pretty hard about him being scum because I wanted to make it look to the cults like *I* was already recruited by the other scum faction (and therefore, try to increase my chances of not being recruited, because recruiting somebody who is already recruited probably results in just a FAILED recruiting attempt, which is a HUGE disadvantage for cults). Basically, I was able to fly by the possibility of being lynched because I was investigated Night 0 as town/NONrecruiter, and I tried my best to fly by recruiting at night by making it seem like I was
already
in a cult (and was recruited Night 0 or Night 1) so that the "other" cult wouldn't try to recruit me.
IT WORKED AND I AM F*CKING AWESOME.
...
Anyway, to answer you-all's OTHER question (if you don't have this question in your mind, *SLAP*, because you SHOULD as any decent player):
Maybe you don't think this is me Playing To Win (as is expected of any good scummer), but I think it IS, because I'm helping MY faction right NOW, without depending on a recruiting taking place. Also, revealing my night results before being recruited means that I'll have no chance AFTER I'm recruited to fake results, etc, based on what I already know. Therefore, I am MUCH less likely to be recruited because of this. I think it's much more likely that I'll be killed now, actually, because there's pretty much no use left that I can be to any cult except as a role-cop of sorts. I realize this splits the cult-doc as well, and he won't know who to target each night, but I think that's good because that way scum won't know who to try to recruit either, if they want to hit us. It'll be a 50/50 WIFOM choice, and a smart cult CAN'T gamble on that because they are trying to get more recruits than the other cult ASAP.
If you have any questions please ask, and if I missed anything, please let me know. I can go into a bit greater detail about the flavor for each of the results as well.
Now, my last guesses for cult recruiter are ERGO, GANDALF, XVART, FLAMEAXE, and INHIM (KATSUKI). WE NEED TO LYNCH ONE OF THEM TODAY, AND WE NEED TO GET IT RIGHT, OR ELSE WE WILL LIKELY LOSE.
Yos2 is obv scum, so we can't trust anything he says. Obviously, telling us the truth is not playing to win on his part, so he's obv lying about some (if not MOST of his post), in order to help his faction out before he goes the way of the buffalo (i.e. extinction, for those who don't get it).
I think he is telling the truth about wishing that Friend was the other recruiter though. I wasn't so sure, but I wanted SOMEONE to die, and we knew as little about Friend as we still DON'T know about any of the CAPS list of guys a few sentences ago. (G, X, F, and I). I should have listened to my gut on Friend, I thought all through Day 1 that he was obvtown, but through Day 2 and 3 his play greatly deteriorated, and I found myself on the fence and wifoming. Shoulda stuck with my gut. f@#$&
sooooooo anyways. Since we KNOW Yos2 is scum, and based on Yos2's voting patterns, I think we can find the cult leaders (or at least one of them). Since he was legitimately gunning for opposite cult recruiter, obviously. We don't know since WHEN he was recruited, but we know that he's not a don's son, so he must be trying to protect one and trying to kill one.
Anyways this is about enough for now.
DISCUSS!
