Probably(maybe?) going to make several short/medium posts during the day as I re-read and have the slack time, (will stop short of spamming though).

I think you know what you are getting here but I wanted to be sure. You have played with farside before I take it? I know she has been around MS for going on 4 years now but I have never personally played with her.
But it did ping this on another player.

I agree that one player may know another player well enough to make a good estimation of their abilities. What gets me there is also what I think pinged Javert about farside.
@Rhinox, you have been around long enough to know better than that. You thinking works only if he is town (or 3rd party) and working by himself. He would be either true-claiming, and have no need to think that far ahead, or 3rd party in which he just picked a moderately rare claim (in my experience at least) that just happened to match another we have in the game. (Yes, I believe that one of Ender and TS is absolutely telling the truth. Plus a leaning, or just a hope maybe, that both are true).
The reason fails, at least in part, if ender is in fact scum because he would have had at least one other brain to call on pre-game if neil allowed the scum QT to be open before the day started. No way in hell to know exactly what was discussed pre-game until the game is over but it is not unreasonable to think there might have been a discussion on what types of fake-claims might stand a chance of squeaking by for at least a day.
So the bold part, actually the whole quote above, has no meaning. As town, he(ender) has no need to think that far ahead. As scum, he(ender) isn't relying solely on himself to think of things, although part of that relies on exactly what was discussed pre-game. Only if ender is 3rd party is any part (the part that has him not town and having to think solely on his own) of that reason valid.
You, Rhinox, are including in your thinking, a reason to help clear ender in your mind that really holds no validity....why?
My Uncle always use'ta say, 'You can't get no blood from a turnip.' .... He'd say the same thing about gettin' it from a stone, too.

I never said nothin' back to him. You don't want mess with no freak that's searchin' around that hard for blood.
